Douvalidis didn't not reach the finals as he missed it by 0.06 seconds (13.47). 

But, even if he reached the finals, he would not have won the medal anyways. 
However, a Cypriot made a historic final appearance in any track event, finished 7th in the 110 m hurdle finals.

We have secured a medal in Sailing, 470 class. Medal race is tomorrow, but we are guaranteed a medal and can even get the gold.

According to ESPN, the event is suppose to start noon local time CT 

So far, nothing is updated on the event. It still shows Greece has 4 medals.

Sailing races have been postponed until tomorrow due to lack of winds, including the 470 Medal Race. If they are not able to run the race again tomorrow, then the current standings will become the final and official results, which would mean we get a silver medal. 

 

Later today Tsakonas is running in the semifinals of 200m in prime time, so we should be able to see the race on NBC. I think his race is at 8:00 pm CDT.

And we have the first busted medalwinner. Weightlifter Izzat Artykov of Kirgystan took strychnine to win his bronze medal. Mosquera might win this medal now, but that is up to IOC and IWF.

Mantis and Kagialis won bronze at the 470!!

 

Finished with same points as 2nd Australia, but got the bronze because we lost to them in the medal race. We finished in last place right behind Australia. Apparently we were ahead of them most of the race and only in the end they passed us.
