Olympic fever
Catch South Africa's Olympic stars in action with our South African friendly TV schedule.
After South Africa's brilliant display at the men's swimming relay has South Africans gripped in Olympic fever. The 4x100m freestyle swimming triumph in world record time by Roland Schoeman, Lyndon Ferns, Darian Townsend and Ryk Neethling on Sunday night has put the wind beneath the wings of other South African medal contenders.
This if course means that thousands of South Africans have been glued to their TV screens ever since, surfing and wading through channels trying to find an event where a South African is taking part.
