kevzz Posted July 23, 2021 Report Share Posted July 23, 2021 Really hope Naomi Osaka is not lighting the cauldron, didn't see her in the parade. Can't stand her, and she's not even an Olympian yet how can she light the cauldron? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yoshi Posted July 23, 2021 Report Share Posted July 23, 2021 I hope middle runway parades become the norm now one's been done in a normal stadium too, it's much quicker and looks much better, while the cameras - and presumably the spectators in Rio - get the same experience.
