The swimming record is at stakes, thanks to Michael Phelps. He come one step closer to break Mark Spitz’s record of seven gold medals in a single games by winning 2 golds today.“I just went out—I don’t want to say I cruised it—but I just swam it,” Phelps said. “I just wanted to get into the finals, and that’s all I did. It doesn’t matter until the finals.”
Today is also a very happy moment for India. Abhinav Bindra won the gold medal in the 10-meter air rifle, giving India its first medal of the Olympics. It's been 28 years since India had won the gold medal. I am sure it's just the beginning for India, and has to go a long way ahead.
There is also a sad news for India, Sania Mirza retired with a wrist injury against Czech Iveta Benesova in the first round of the Olympic tennis event. But she may still try and play doubles with Sunitha Rao.
On the days end, China is still leading with 9 golds, trailing behind South Korea with 4 and USA with 3 golds respectively.
