In this week’s episode, Deepanjana Pal and Rajyasree Sen jump on the bandwagon to discuss what the world cannot stop talking about- Olympics! Dipa Karmakar wins hearts and prayers while American athletes set camp on a ship. Freaky Ali promises to educate Bollywood about golf while The Great Indian Penis Survey hits below the belt (see what we did there?) with enlightening and amusing results.

Following the withdrawal of several golfers from this year’s Olympic competition, including the world number one Jason Day, we ask if golf should be an Olympic discipline at all. Former pro Dottie Pepper tells us that it shouldn’t and that “the Olympics needs golf more than golf need the Olympics”, all of which is likely to annoy the chairman of the Professional Squash Association Ziad Al-Turki, who joins us too. Formula One: The Archduke of the Austrian Grand Prix When Austria played Hungary at Euro 2016 we spoke to Ferdinand Habsburg, who just happens to not only be the Archduke of Austria but also the Crown Prince of Hungary. But Ferdinand's real passion is motor sport, and at 19 years of age he's already competing in Formula 2.0. So with the Austria Grand Prix on Sunday - we've brought the Archduke of Austria, or Ferdinand as he lets me call him - back to the studio. Pat Summit: The Life and Legacy of a Legend Legendary basketball coach Pat Summitt died this week at the age of 64, five years after she was diagnosed with Alzheimer's Disease. Pat won two Olympic medals, silver as a player in 1976, and gold as a coach at the 1984 games in Los Angeles. Off the court she had a profound impact on empowering women in sport, culminating in being awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom. Under her guidance the University of Tennessee recorded over a thousand victories, the most in college basketball history, for any coach - man or woman. Olympic gold medallist Kara Lawson played under Summitt at Tennessee and is chair of the Pat Summitt Foundation. Winners: In the lead up to the Olympic Games we're bringing you the stories of six women from around the world and how they came to excel at their sport. All the obstacles, failures and triumphs along the way. In the second of our series, we hear from Dipa Karmakar, a gymnast from India. When Dipa first competed, she had to borrow an oversized, ill-fitting costume. Her sport has little financial backing in India, and so her bronze medal at the 2014 Commonwealth Games is even more remarkable. E-games in Rio: From a sport like golf with a seemingly lukewarm attitude to the Games, to one that's so determined to establish its Olympic credentials, it's organising its own competition in Rio in August! That sport is 'eGames' and comprises the very best video-game players from around the world. Sportshour's Austin Halewood looks at this new tournament which will offer medals and national pride rather than cash prizes for the winners. Sporting Witness… In 1975, Arthur Ashe beat the world number one Jimmy Connors to become the first African-American to win Wimbledon. Ashe's friend and agent, Donald Dell, recalls that memorable match - and about what else Ashe might have achieved if he had not died young.

Claudia Fragapane (top left), Olivia Vivian (top right), and Glawgow volunteer Jamie Day (center bottom).   Jessica, Blythe, Emma and Jamie chat about: Did Australian head coach, Peggy Liddick's controversial plan to take potential event medalists and leaving their all around champion at home. Our fears that the British media are portraying Fragapane as the next world champion and will set her up for unreasonable expectations. Jamie tells us what it was like to volunteer in Glasgow for gymnastics and be forced to eat candy! Dipa Karmakar's double front vault. Was it worthy of it's namesake, the great Produnova? Louis Smith and Kristina Thomas carrying an injured Sam Oldham onto the podium for his gold medal in a Kerry Strug-esque moment of glory. The most anticipated pommel horse show down since the 2012 Olympic Games.  The fantastic attitude of Becky Downie who competed injured for a title on bars but three falls on beam. The gym-romance between Hannah Whelan and Sam Oldham. Will Max Whitlock challenge for an all around medal at Worlds? Ellie Black vs. Claudia Fragapane in the vault finals- -we discuss whether or not the outcome was fair. Olivia Vivian, Miss Congeniality of the gymnastics world. The massive improvement of the Welsh girls and Indian women's gymnastics. Sportsmanship gymnastics style. 107: Acro World Champions Kristin Allen & Michael Rodrigues 106: Biles and Ross Dominate the 2014 US Secret Classic 2014 Senior Secret Classic Competition Photo Gallery 102: Classic Episode with Louis Smith 101: Olivia Vivian 81: Jenny Hansen 96: Australian Nationals & Men’s European Championships Victoria Moors: A Photo Gallery from the 2014 American Cup 86: British Championships & Doha World Cup An Inside View of gymnastics at the Commonwealth Games - by from our friend MIchelle Webb who volunteered in media at the games. I was, and still am, skeptical about the team format. The reason they did it was because they didn't have enough of the most highly qualified judges to run all the panels simultaneously. That makes me wonder if there are rules against judges from non-competing nations judging or if it was a money thing in forking out for extra officials. One good thing about the way they organised the countries was that it meant spectators got to cheer on gymnasts from just about every country. All the big teams except Wales had MAG in one session and WAG in the other. That was very nice for the fans and it also meant gymnasts could watch their male/female counterparts perform. Of course the big consequence of the country draw was that MAG medals were decided in the first session and WAG medals in the second. That meant those that paid more for "finals" tickets only saw half the competition be decided but it was great for the session one spectators who didn't get to see the medal ceremony but saw the big MAG England v Scotland battle. I would be interested to know what the gymnasts thought of it. I'm curious how being able to focus on limited events per day stacked up against being different and having to compete multiple days in a row. As a trampolinist I would be perturbed having to compete set and voluntary routines on different days, I'd prefer to get it done and out of the way! I guess there was the potential for tactics to change based on day one scores but I'm not sure we saw any of that. The announcer was good about explaining which teams were coming in and out. Teams were marched in and out at the same times as other groups were rotating events so it was a bit disjointed. With so much going on it was extremely difficult to keep track of the scores. The main scoreboard had MAG and WAG scores, subdivisions and rotation numbers and was probably tricky to follow for newbies. I'm not sure the non-gym nerds were too bothered but I found it had less ebb and flow than a normal team competition. I always remember Barry Davies (God) being disparaging about Romania winning Sydney TF while sitting on the sidelines. Having a score to chase is less dramatic than everyone competing at the same time although it does give you more time with the calculator. I'd say that the format was very good for newbies as they got a heck of a lot of variety with MAG,  WAG and many countries. I think gym nerds would prefer the better focus the traditional format provides. Competition Won't say too much here because everyone can watch the routines but... Get well soon Sam. Can we please ship CWG gymnasts to Marta and teach them to stay on the fecking beam? I've never seen so many smiles in a WAG AA competition, lovely to watch gymnasts be chuffed with their performances and enjoying themselves. The cameraderie between all the gymnasts was great. Particularly liked seeing the Scotland and England coaches shaking hands/high fiving during the march rounds. Singapore WAG are a nice team, smart form and decent difficulty. Watching gymnasts from smaller nations is a good reminder of how difficult gymnastics really is. It is easy to forget the level of preparation giants and basic ring moves require when you just watch top teams. Rhian Pugh (2004 Junior Euro bar champ) was judging. She was a line judge during the team competition and I think a timing official for UB finals. Pretty neat that she was officiating at a competition including the Zuchold which was in her routine back in the day. The music played was matched to the gymnasts going. When Wales had performed and Welsh fans dressed as daffodils were shown in the audience they played "Delilah" by Welsh artist Tom Jones. After Ruby Harrold finished on bars they played "Ruby ruby ruby" by the Kaiser Chiefs! Behind the scenes My Clydesider volunteer role was "press tribune team leader" which meant I looked after the journalists, distributed scores and made sure only authorised people came into the press tribunes (working area which was behind vault/beam). It was so cool to see the back stage organisation of an event and it was wonderful to contribute to the gymnastics and the Games as a whole. As a bonus I actually got to see a fair bit of gymnastics which helped me feel better about selling my tickets when I got my volunteer position. Some neat things that happened/were spotted and that I'm allowed to talk about were... Craig Heap taking pictures of his screen for the England 1-2-3 and Christine doing the same when her gymnast Georgina Hockenhull won bronze on beam. I got to go on the field of play to move photographers' benches around during RSG podium training. They were also used in London and still had 2012 stickers on them. Nice to see things being re-used in a sustainable games. For the team and HB medal ceremonies I moonlighted in the mixed zone where my job was to walk gymnasts from the broadcast area to the written press mixed zone. Such a cool job and being there meant I could listen in on the interviews. Peggy and Lauren both said that they were the third ranked country going in and that they won silver rather than it being a disappointment. Peggy also mentioned her team being under-prepared, will peak for worlds and that she's happy they were all healthy. All the medallists got a bag of goodies which included a frame/mount thing for their medals. It was proper amusing to see the judges all trying to get pictures with Louis while the volunteers were trying to shepard him to journalists. After the VT medal ceremony Dipa ran up to her coach to hang her bronze around his neck. Whatever you think about her vaulting and their strategy it was a cute moment. Multiple journalists had never covered the sport before and asked me to explain what was going on. PERFECT job for me! I felt sorry for them being so out of their comfort zone but some of the errors I saw in articles were inexcusable and could have been solved with a quick google (China are world leaders in WAG) or glance at the information we gave them (Louis features in AA finals) grrrrrrr! I just loved using my gym nerd powers and explaining what was going on to my team of volunteers and journalists who asked. Audience and Noobs Various games were played with the audience to keep the energy levels high. Some of these applied to all the CWG venues but they are extra relevant to gymnastics given the down times between routines and that worlds is at the same venue next year. "Weegie wave" was a term coined for the Games as far as I'm aware. This is a "Mexican wave" or "the wave" depending on where you are from. I was given blank looks at a US summer camp when I suggested a Mexican wave, once I explained it I was told the American name and that I shouldn't be racist! The same thing happened with Chinese whispers/telephone. Anyway, they got this going a lot and the audience had to race an electronic Clyde (Games mascot) around the arena. There was also a super slo-mo version where they asked the audience to be as graceful as the gymnasts. Kiss-cam/highland dancing cam/air guitar cam. For this they would show members of the audience and get them to do as they were told. Most people were up for it. Notable events were getting the announcer on kiss-cam, Louis vs a NZ gymnasts on air guitar cam (as you can imagine Louis went for it) and the highlight was the Dan's on highland dancing cam. They were resolutely not up for it. Keatings just laughed and made jokes while Purvis gave us some head bopping. Such a shame! There was an announcer who roved the audience doing interviews with kids and getting people to participate in the 30 second challenge. Variations of this were name countries in the CW, sports in the CWG, fruit, vegetables. Then they'd play a video of a sports star doing the same to see who would win. Speaking of videos they had Beth reminiscing about her UB title in Manchester and Steve Frew doing the same about SR (which shockingly they cut off before the SR ceremony that he presented at).  There were also videos for each apparatus and they were actually pretty detailed, going as far as describing the special requirements on PH. There were several acrobatic gymnastics performances from the GB juniors which were very well received. The 2015 worlds were publicised a lot with the announcer mentioning that tickets had almost sold out. All the noobs adored Claudia. There were lots of height comments. Super young kids around me kept asking their parents when Louis would be on, he's so well known now. Some on my team commented on the scary vauting of the Indian WAGs. None of them had any gymnastics knowledge and were fairly non-plussed about volunteering at this venue but 80% loved it, thought gymnastics was amazing and will be watching Tumble.
