This performance is one for the books.

A tip off is when the announcers stop talking and are silent.
They know what they are looking at.
Gold medal and history in the making.

The thing is, Liu's recent performances, costumes etc were not that great.
Good but not stellar.

She knocked it out of the park yesterday.
