 Is anyone else losing sleep, watching the games?

 Is anyone over the drama of Kyle Chalmers and his 'will he-won't he swim'?

 I sympathise with the pressure the athletes and swimmers are under, to perform, but endless interviews with Chalmers, asking about this 'triangle' and 'no handshake' situation...with Chalmers having a perpetual false smile on his face...are becoming tedious.

 I will say that Cate Campbell is not too bad an interviewer, for a newbie...she's certainly better than Locky or Money-Bill in the Rugby League coverages...but let's not go overboard with more Chalmers feely-feely chats.

THe poor man who won the time trial has ended up in hospital ill.  Don't know with what but not very hard to guess.  Decimated the team road event.

Just figured you'd be a bit more stringent being at an International event
