Water Polo suits are skimpy too make it harder for opponents to grab on and yank the player under or out of the way
From Google answers

Most of them will also wear a suit 2-3 times smaller than normal to make it even tougher for their opponent to get their hands under the edges

I didn’t notice the guys suits riding up their arse with their cheeks hanging out.

Sounds like sanctioned sexual assault to me. What happens if fingers find the wrong place? Lol yuck

I'm waiting for yard mowing to become an Olympic sport. I may have a chance to medal.

Speed or design? I'm extremely OCD so I can't let anyone do my yard....it looks like a damn carpet! I think I can compete too.

Bobby Finke’s 1500m free swim was freaking amazing.

Rory Sabbatini was derided by many for obtaining Slovakian citizenship to play in the Olympics. (As a native South African, he would not qualify to represent RSA; but his wife is Slovakian and he has apparently done quite a bit to promote golf in the country.)

Well, the 204th-ranked "boy from Bratislava" is making a final-round charge (-9 through 15 holes) and looks likely to medal. He is not well-liked by his peers, but has shown as much of a commitment to Olympic golf as anyone.

Several guys could track him down, but Schauffele is currently the only player ahead of him.

I am by no means a woke feminist, but I do feel like the US women’s water polo suits seem a little unnecessarily skimpy…

He was insane. Fell asleep on 14 but just woke up to see Xander held on to win golf's 8th major.

Thank you for not posting a picture from the front.

On an unrelated note, does anyone know what animal has the biggest toes? I’d think it might be a camel but there has to be another. Maybe not. It’s probably the camel.

Disappointed the course wasn't lined with finely manicured bonsai trees.

Not particularly but I did notice that he’s from Italy and apparently also from Texas.

Have you ever been in a Turkish prison?
