If dressage is in, then surely border collie sheep-herding should be in...and having attended many national finals, it is actually pretty awesome.

British men's coxless 4 in the rowing just absolutely blew up from looking pretty comfortable in 2nd. Almost took the Italians out in the last few hundred metres when they steered into their lane. This is an event Britain have won at the last 5 Olympics

Westminster Kennel Club agility type thing would be miles better than dancing horses. The weave polls alone are better.
A short film that imagines "competitive lunching" as an Olympic Sport. The printed monologue that it's based on (by Ron Carlson) is more fun to read, but this is a decent adoption of it.

other than being able to watch the rare 5'8" spiker who can jump to the moon men's is just too fast to be entertaining. The players in mens all look way too big for a court that size.

They really showed Russia not to dope anymore by letting everyone compete as an abbreviation where the first word is clearly Russia and wearing the same uniforms they would have colors wise. At least make them all compete in bright pink so we can see the cheaters.
Amazing race from the British men in the 4x200m freestyle relay. Won by over 3 seconds and only missed the World Record by 0.03 seconds. Second gold medal for Tom Dean this Olympics and Duncan Scott adds one to his silver from the same race Dean won

Field Hockey does a better job of using replay review and allowing for fans to hear ref communications than football and it isn't even close. It's honestly pretty embarrassing for the likes of the FA.
Many parents still believe boys are better, more competitive at sports than girls
Female Olympian handballers fined for playing in shorts instead of bikini bottoms. A female Paralympian told by a championship official that her shorts were "too short and inappropriate." Olympic women gymnasts, tired of feeling sexualized, opted for full-length unitards instead of bikini-cut leotar

GB featherweight karriss artingstall just won a split decision against the Aussie number 3 seed to guarantee herself a medal
Incredible especially that kid who was only 18 , amazing.
Heard it on the radio, sounded like a really good close fight. Bunce said he couldn't split them at all.

Great win. Quite a close fight but she wanted it more in the third against a good opponent.
First active member of the armed forces to win a medal in the boxing for over 60 years.
Wasnt much in it , it was a pick em fight really depending on how you like your fighters I suppose . Bit like @grandjoeblue said she had a bit more desire in the final round , good day for us boxing wise we had price win and Ben Whittaker as well .
