Though it's sad the Olympics come to a close this weekend, that means more excitement from the remaining events. Basically every competition left has a medal at stake.
On the track Thursday, the men's 110-meter hurdles and decathlon and women's heptathlon and pole vault were among the events to award hardware, while men's basketball and women's and men's beach volleyball solidified their medal matchups. We continued to see upsets, new records set and big stars adding to their legacies.
It's not yet time to mourn the end of the 2020 Games. Brilliance is still occurring on a regular basis.
