The Olympic motto is three words in Latin: "Citius, Altius, Fortius". This means "Faster, Higher, Stronger". What has happened in the fifth day of the Olympic Games in Tokyo? A woman from Hawaii won a gold medal for surfing. Higher or faster? Sadly, there is no surfer from Cornwall. Who invented surfing - Hawaii or Cornwall? However, one young man started his swimming career in Wadebridge and Bodmin. He is a member of the team who were winners of gold medals in the relay race (4 x 200m freestyle). Definitely faster! How about "younger" or "older". There are some very young contestants in table tennis and skateboarding (a new sport, on a skateboard) - they are just girls. There are some more "mature" contestants - experienced riders in the dressage event. They already have many medals. And what about "more beautiful"? Those dressage horses must be the most beautiful.
