Tokyo Olympics Day 4 Roundup: Alaska, Hawaii claim gold in and on the water

From sea to shining sea ... and beyond.

Carissa Moore, who competes in international surfing events under the flag of Hawaii, surprised no one by winning the first women's surfing gold medal in Olympic history.

Lydia Jacoby, who hails from Alaska, surprised many people by winning the women's 100m breaststroke.

Also surprising: The U.S. women's volleyball team routed reeling China, while the U.S. women's soccer team could only draw Australia to set up a tricky quarterfinal game against the Netherlands or Brazil.

Also not surprising: China's divers won the women's synchronized platform event, but the U.S. duo of Jessica Parrotta and Delaney Schnell won the race for silver.

In late action: The U.S. women's gymnastics team regrouped for silver after Simone Biles went out with an injury, the U.S. women's softball team also took silver after a loss to Japan, and the U.S. dressage team took a surprise silver.

SWIMMING

The women's 100m breaststroke favorite was defending champion Lilly King, who led early but was passed by South Africa's Tatjana Schoenmaker, who set the Olympic record of 1:04.82 in qualifying. They continued to duel for silver, with Schoenmaker coming out on top, but Jacoby surged past both of them for the win in 1:04.95. Schoenmaker was 0.27 seconds back. King was another 0.32 back, more than two seconds off her world record from 2017, but finished two places ahead of Russian rival Yuliya Efimova.

That was the only gold medal for the U.S. swim team on the day. Regan Smith took bronze in the 100m backstroke, while Ryan Murphy took bronze in the men's 100m backstroke behind a 1-2 ROC finish. Great Britain went 1-2 in the day's other final, the men's 200m freestyle.

VOLLEYBALL

Defending Olympic gold medalist and reigning World Cup champion China had a stunning straight-set loss to Turkey in its opener, but the good money would've bet on at least some sort of regrouping against the United States, which stared up at China from the lower steps of the podium in each event.

China did stay even with the Americans through the first set, losing 29-27. The U.S. then took control, winning 25-22 and 25-21 for the sweep.

Jordan Thompson walloped 28 kills on top of four blocks and two aces, both in the third set, for the win.

AROUND THE GAMES

Boxing (women): U.S. welterweight Oshae Jones took a commanding lead and held out through the third round for a 3-2 decision in the Round of 16 that was more convincing than the final scoreline appears.

Table tennis: After winning her first four matches to move from one of the lowest possible seeds into the Round of 16, U.S. player Liu Juan's run came to an end just short of the women's singles quarterfinals, which no U.S. player has reached since 2008.

Rugby: The U.S. men led Great Britain 21-0, but a costly infraction helped the British rally for a 26-21 quarterfinal win.

Shooting: Mary Tucker and Lucas Kozeniecky, both sixth in their respective individual events, teamed up for silver in the debut of mixed team air rifle.

Boxing (men): U.S. welterweight Delante Johnson controlled the action to advance to the quarterfinals. Also, Moroccan boxer Youness Baalla attempted to bit New Zealand's David Nyika. The New Zealand boxer won the bout.

Judo: One day after Canada won its first medal in women's judo, Catherine Beauchemin-Pinard won the nation's second.

Canoe/kayak: Women's kayak slalomist Ricarda Funk won Germany's first gold medal in this year's Games.

Beach volleyball: The ageless duo of Phil Dalhausser and Nick Lucena upset Brazil's Alison Cerutti and Alvaro Filho. In women's pool play, April Ross and Alix Klineman swept Spain's Liliana Fernandez and Elsa Baquerizo.

Tennis: Naomi Osaka, the home-country hero who lit the Olympic cauldron, lost 6-1, 6-4 to Marketa Vondrousova of the Czech Republic. In women’s singles, the top three seeds are out, as are all of the Americans, but U.S. doubles teams Austin Krajicek/Tennys Sandgren and Bethanie Mattek-Sands/Jessica Pegula advanced. 

Surfing: U.S. teen Caroline Marks reached the semifinals and wound up in fourth. Italo Ferreira won the men's event despite breaking his board on his first wave.
