Cheap Nike Air Max 90 Shoes China .For teenagers Katie Ledecky and Simone Biles, their star turns in the Summer Olympics might be just beginning.From the pool to the gymnastics floor, Team USA had nice day at the Rio de Janeiro Games.Not all the American stars were winners Tuesday, though. Serena Williams lost on the tennis court and the U.S. womens soccer team gave up a late goal and ended up in a draw with Colombia.But a new generation of U.S. athletes is ready to take up the banner of Olympic standard-bearer from Phelps, a grizzled veteran at 31.Phelps earned his 20th career gold medal after taking the 200-meter butterfly.

The day was capped by the 19-year-old Biles, a fan favorite, whose boundary-pushing floor exercise showed just how far ahead they are of everyone else.Biles, Lauren Hernandez, Gabby Douglas, Madison Kocian and Aly Raisman also gave retiring national team coordinator Martha Karolyi a fitting send off with powerful performances on all the apparatuses.The golden girls dubbed themselves The Final Five in honor of Karolyis retirement at the end of the Olympics and the fact that the format is changing for Tokyo in 2020 so that only four team members will take part in the team competition.The normally stern Karolyi broke down in tears when she was told of the nickname the team adopted.I think at this moment we can say that that the United States dominates the world of gymnastics, Karolyi said.Russia took the silver medal and China earned bronze.Other highlights from Day 4 at the Rio Games:MURKY POOL : At Maria Lenk Aquatics Center, there was more buzz over the color of the water than the diving competition.

Svitolina, who had never before played in an Olympics, smiled and stuck her arms out in front of her, palms up, as if waking up from a dream.ON THE PITCH : Catalina Usme beat U.S. goalie Hope Solo on a pair of free kicks to draw Colombia to a 2-2 tie with the United States.
