Day 11: Good News Department At Rio Again

Finding this on Yahoo! Sports, I have to give it it's own post and remove the Farce label.

Argentinian sailor Santiago Lunge was in his sixth Olympics this year, having two bronze medals to his credit in a now-discontinued event.

That was the least of his problems.  He found a major cancer is his left lung which necessitated its removal a year or so ago.  He credits the sport and it's traveling schedule with finding it.

Today:  An Olympic gold medal in the new Nacra-17 mixed (gender) category.

Can't get much better than that for a story.
