You have a gold medal around your neck along with a silver, how does that feel for you, alison . Im speechless. Taking in the w the journey has its ups and downs. And to have a gold around my neck again, an amazing feeling with three other girls. How much pressure were you feeling on the deck knowing its your job in the relay to get that team off to a very strong start. Knowing that you have Katie Ledecky theres not much pressure. Is it nerveracking at all to and wringing your hands making sure it works out. I had complete faith in the other three girls. Like i said, having katie anchor our relay, i wouldnt have any other swimmer anchor our relay. Josh, first time olympian. You sit there with the silver medal around your neck. Is the way you played it out in your mind for the last ten years . Yeah. Its absolutely a dream come true. It feels awesome to represent kazakhstan got the gold. It was a touch.

These two guys have either one gold or World Championship for a decade in this event. One more time a showdown. They swim side by side. How do you think that affects the race . They have a great sense of where the other guy is at this point after competing in the same event for so long. You just look at lochte and you look at his career and its great. The will history remember him . In an event phelps won three times in a row in the olympics, if lochte can get this, that will add to the specter of his greatness. Lets talk about Katie Ledecky. Magnificent. I used that one. Give me the list, matt. Give me something to work off of. A second down as she gets in the were talking about.

We dont expect anything but that . We learned in sports theres no guarantees. That one feels good. Ill ask you and ill lean back here and ask these two to weigh in as well. Could Katie Ledecky she holds as allison will tell me thats 8 06. 68. Could Katie Ledecky become the first person to swim 800 meters under 8 minutes in her career . That would be a lot given the toll of the week. In her career . Why not . Ill defer to the person thats done it a few times more than me. If somebody is going to do katie. Money holders here. What else are you looking forward to . You mentioned golf starting which were excited about. Over a century but gymnastics with the Great Success of women we saw them with you yesterday on the show. The opportunity now in the individual to have their success. Can you win the allaround the title americans have won before. Biles is good but keep an eye on raisman. I like how thats the rivalry.

Donald trump out with a new line of attack against president obama calling him the founder of isis. He made that accusation at a rally wednesday night in florida. He also called Hillary Clinton group. Trump has previously blamed the president and clinton for middle east policies that allowed isis to gain power and traction. As for his Overall Campaign strategy, trump told cnbc this morning that he plans to stick with it because in the end, its either going to work or im going to have a very nice, long vacation. Trump is praising new York City Police for safely capturing a virginia man who climbed nearly halfway up trump tower on the outgoing commander of the u. S. Led war against isis says the enemy is retreating on all fronts in syria and in iraq. Lieutenant general Sean Mcfarland said numbers have been reduced to 15,000 but he did warn that isis will remain capable of committing terrorist attacks around the world despite its losses on those battlefields. The night for possible victims of an explosion and fire at an Apartment Fire in silver spring, maryland, outside of washington d. C. Part of that building collapsed. 30 people were injured. Several others reported missing. The fire started just before midnight. It was fed by a natural gas line. And we have seen it time and time again. Probably not a good idea to try to catch a foul ball with food in your hands. Heres our latest example. This is from pittsburgh. Cheese nachos. The pirates fan wearing the stadium snack all over his face and his once clean white tshirt but all was okay in the end because he got a free replacement tshirt for his efforts. Hate to see a good set of nachos go down like that, guys. Thank you very much. Coming up next, will it be a second Golden Moment for simone biles in could aly raisman pull off the upset . Plus, we saw a leo look alike in archery competition. Check it out. Now it looks like the duchess of cambridge has joined in on the olympic action. Well explain right after this. . .

This windows pc is a life saver being able to pull up different articles to different parts of the screen is so convenient. Poor foster kid black immigrant cancer patient small muslim the only label that matters is olympian. Hi hey ive made plans for later in case this date doesnt go well. Likewise but, funny story. On top of that . My mom is my best friend. Uh oh. Yeah. Oop theres the rescue text from my roommate saying she needs me. Wouldnt it be great if everyone said what they meant . Ouble cash card. I dont know where im goin but i sure know where ive been and ive made up my mind, i aint wasting no more time . . . Here i go again on my own . Please welcome to the tees the players of group ten. Welcome back to rio where history is being made right now. As we m the first time in 112 years golf once again an olympic sport and im loving it. Youre looking live at the action on the course. Were waiting for bubba watson to tee off. Lets bring in nbcs sports golf analyst david. Good to see you. Lets talk about the team. We have bubba and ricky fowler we have great chance. There was pat reed who loves to play with flag on his back. He has nasty in him, which is what you need to win a huge event like this. We havent seen golf in the olympics for 112 years. What does it mean for the sport itself . Its been around since the 15th century. It means a tremendous amount because there are so many developing countries and countries that dont or havent havent had any government funding. When it becomes an olympic sport, that money comes from governments. Take a look at the monitor, david. Nobody calls a swing better. Heres bubba on the first tee. Left that one a little to the left. Not too bad. A little into the tough. These guys are all competing for an individual medal. Some people have said why not make put a team element in this so you can make it feel more like a ryder cup. How do you feel about that . I think for the first time back the 72hole stroke play, it might be the way to go. Theyll look at it again after these olympics and maybe go to Something Different for the first time its the way to determine a champion and best way to do that. A bunch of not to come because of zika concerns. Do you think theyre missing out . Absolutely. Its such a festival atmosphere and an amazing event to take part in. My hat is off to the ladies. Nine of the top ten in the world, top four in the world are here. They decided they were going to be all in. You know, there are americans flag on their uniform that are getting shot at so i think for an athlete to be able to wear it is a tremendous honor and if anyone gets a chance to do it, should. Fun to watch. Golf back after 112 years. David covered the last time it was in the games. Really good to see you, david. You can catch golfing right now on our Sister Network, the golf channel. David, thanks again. Ann sponsored by cocacola. Open a coke, enjoy the games. All right. We move on. This morning on todays rio, gymnastics once again in the spotlight. Thats right. Last night was disappointing for the u. S. Mens team missing out on medals in the individual allaround finals. Tonight the women get their turn led by american simone biles and aly raisman. Here to talk about all of it, gold Medal Winners. A bummer for guys last night. What happened, tim . Just disappointing. What it came down to was sam had a shot but hes got to be great and he hasnt been great. Hasnt been able to put together six rouroutines. He started sluggish and went to vaulting and put his knees down. When you do that its a full point off. I didnt get to see it live. A lot of person this morning were talking about max from Great Britain winning bronze. Whas hes been great since london four years ago but the first time that Great Britain has been on the podium in over 100 years. A huge moment for him. Can we move to women . A lot of people will have eyes trained on what were going to see. We have seen them do allarounds before. Will we see Something Different tonight . Not anything different. Theyll do the exact same thing theyve been doing here in rio and for the last few years. Easier said than done. Theyll definitely get the gold and silver if all goes according. How would you like to be a gymnastics headline writer this morning trying to figure out what youre going to write about simone biles that you havent already written. They could write a whole front page of adjectives. She has every quality you need to be a tremendous gymnast. Shes physically amazing. Shes coordinated. She has great air sense. Shes quick. Shes strong. Sh final five because its martas last time coaching them. What do you think shes meant to the sport . Shes created this legacy. I had the honor to compete under her as well. Nothing but amazing memories. Specifically martha being her last one. Who will take her place . It could be her father. I dont know anything. Ill take that as a maybe. Thank you. You can see the action tonight on nbc. I think we have mr. Roker with a check of the weather. Hey, al. You bet. Thanks so much. The cat that swallowed the canary. Very nice. Lets show you whats going on with your weather. Were looking in rio. Its been rainy but things maracana stadium. Mens volleyball. Usa versus brazil. A big one tonight. Clear skies. 66 degrees. Lets look at your weekend outlook. Were looking at wet weather through the gulf coast. Heavy showers and thunderstorms moving through the plains today. Its going to be toasty in the midsection of the country. You can see plenty of sunshine making its way through the Midatlantic States. More monsoonal moisture in the spectacular today with plenty of sunshine and the plains look good as well. Thats whats going on around al, thanks so much. A steamy morning already out there. 80 in the city, most of our suburbs, look at they feelslike temperatures. Feels like 102 in the city, 102 in south brunswick.

Lets start with this. The french cyclist turning heads on the streets of the city. Check this girl out. This is pauline ferrandprevot. Shes 24. Last year she was the first person in the history of cycling to hold three big titles at the same time. But have a good look at her, billy. Do you notice any royal resemblance . More pippa to me. I know what youre thinking. Look at that. Its in the dimple. Drawing comparisons to duchess kate. Same features especially those dimples. Definitely. The smile. Would you like Throwback Thursday . Why dont we do that . All right. Were looking athletes before they were olympians. So cute. He added to his collection of before becoming a final five. David boudia back in the day made moves on dry land on his tricycle. And heres aly raisman. I love those. Aly raisman, not only a great gymnast. Shes good at seeing the future. 13 years ago ali was at summer camp with a cohna. Ali was on point with her prediction about the future. Aly said in 20 years she would be an olympic gymnast. Too humble to mention the gold medal but i will be in the olympics. Mr. Roker, what did you write in your book . What was your prediction . I hope to have extra servings of ice cream. That worked out. Is it time for billy bushs pop start . Who is having more fun at the games . Last night matthew and camila were at the pool. Americans managed to get the win and by the way, and to taylor swift, shes taking a break from her feud with kim and kanye to support team usa and send love to the womens gymnastics team. Taylor tweets this. Sending my biggest congratulations to simone, aly, laurie, gabby and madison. You did it, girls. Finalfive. And Reese Witherspoon on vacation in croatia. Im no Katie Ledecky but i tried and as far as i can see it looks like video was shot in 1927. Looked amazing then and amazing now. Thats your pop start. For more pop culture news, check out todays facebook page. That was her grandmothers video. Looked terrific. My son is great at those filters. I have no idea. None whatsoever. Just ahead, weve got a special treat. Weve got the were looking forward to them. First, some images from our friends at getty. Good morning, 8 26, it is 81 degrees looking at the tappen zee bridge. We could learn later this afternoon if charges will be filed against the man who attempted to scale trump tower. He used suction cups to climb the building for three hours. He reached the 21st floor before police were able to pull police say he wanted to meet donald trump and had no intention of hurting anyone. Hes now undergoing a psychiatric evaluation. Police are releasing new video of a man suspected of setting trucks on fires. And an accident with a fuel spill is tying up traffic on a Staten Island bridge. A truck overturned. The Fire Department says one person was taken to the home with minor injuries. Lauren assist the commute. We still have a few bus detours with the accident. Delays go back for miles. You can take local streets to try to get around it, expect extra congestion or if youd like head back over to new jersey to head back into the city, but i know thats a trek as well. That blocks two lanes. Have it back to you. Thank so much, lauren. Today another hot and steamy day, 90 is the high. Tonight warm muggy and uncomfortable. Even warmer tomorrow.

Welcome to welcome to today on this thursday morning, august 11th, 2016. Al, you have our morning jam this morning. We are one. World cup song, right . 2014. We just kind of get into the mood a little bit. Our audience cant hear it. They feel it. Natalie, without natalie, we wouldnt eat down here. We would starve to death. We spread berries all over your face. Today well go easy. This is one of my childhood favorites as a kid. If you want to take Something Back from brazil,ou these. They are called serenade of love. If you take a bite, its like having a serenade of love. Get in there, al. A little crunch. A little thing in the middle. Some kind of nugget or something. Its like a wafer. A small brazilian girl running around for job well done. You get one of these. Serenade of love. It was a reuniting of sorts and theres love between me and twotime olympic figure skater known for his over the top dramatic fashion. A couple years ago you may remember at the Winter Olympics in sochi, we went fishing amongst the 95yearold russian dudes that sit out there and fish for hours at a time. He goes out wear to fish with you this time . You fished right off the rocks here, right off of our set. Its about a 35foot drop. Theres johnnys outfit. Gale force winds. Torrential rains coming down. Did it stop johnny and i . Absolutely not. Looked like a scarlet big bird. Okay, billy. Lets go fishing. Hes got a record to uphold here. He actually caught a fish in sochi. Did he catch one here . That remains to be seen. Well find out tonight on access hollywood. This show is becoming one big tease for access hollywood. Impressive. By the way, to tease our show tomorrow, johnny will be here. He will be here. The crowd favorite. Right now hes probably changing out of that scarlet big bird outfit. Hes coming in an oscar the grouch outfit tomorrow. If he jumps into the pool, it will be a green one. Olympic teammates phelps and lochte went head to head in the semifinal yesterday. Phelps came in first. Lochte came in second. Finals is tonight. Were into that. Everybodys high. We were talking about that. We were saying he dyed it that silvery blue color and youre in that chlorinated water and air turns green. He looks like the joker now. He looks like a young but still old paul newman. New the hair because of the chlorine has turned green. Its like a minty color. Its to match the water in the olympic amazing their bodies havent turned green. Thats a big story here is the green water in the pools and what theyre trying to do to overcompensate for the algae problem that they have. They say its safe. I got to tell you its overnight it turned green. That doesnt look so good. It would be great if everyone died their hair a different color every day. Im no biologist but i got to it looks soupy. Which is not great word. Water polo guys say by Fourth Quarter in their match they couldnt see. They couldnt open their eyes. Again, that doesnt seem like its great pool conditions. Side by side there you see it. They tested it and say its safe. Officials came forward and said, all right, theres something wrong with the water. Thats why theyre officials. Wow. Do weav two olympians. Silver medalists. Sam dorman and mike hixon. When i talked to you guys earlier, you said you were probably the only guys who didnt mind jumping in. It didnt bother you. Didnt bother us. I think we have jenna bushs microphone on while were doing this before jenna says something. Says something she might regret. Youre in the water for a second. You probably jumped into worse or you havent . I dont think we have. We had no issues. Something we didnt focus on. We focus on one dive at a time. Water wasnt really an issue. It helped us bright under those lights that it helped visual cues a little bit. The water was brighter than normal, which was nice. Florescent almost. I saw you guys before the show. You were each with your parents and it was the first time you guys hadnt seen them before the competition. This was the first time this morning you got to see them.
