Hello again, and happy Thursday. I spent last night and this morning back on my couch and took in some more Olympic wrestling. Where are you watching the action?
The wrestling competition at the 2020 Olympic Games continued Wednesday night and early Thursday morning at the Makuhari Messe Hall in Chiba, Japan. Day Five of the tournament featured both men's freestyle and women's freestyle action.
And it ultimately became a banner day and night for the United States.
Between both sessions, three American wrestlers won medals — one gold, two bronze — while a fourth reached the gold-medal match, and two more were pulled back into bronze-medal contention after losing earlier on Wednesday night.
