Summary
We discuss the city’s, ahem, generally lukewarm feelings about the Worlds & whether they may have changed in just over a week’s time. We also look at the courses & zero in on the home nation’s medal hopes, which rest mainly on the shoulders of Marc Hirschi.
Also - & perhaps most importantly - what’s Tina Turner got to do with it?
