Rafa won the Golden channel slam 2008
2008 was held in Beijing, not Paris or London. 2012 would have been the year of a possible golden channel slam, since it was held in London, but the events were won by 3 different people: Nadal French Open, Federer Wimbledon, and Murray London Olympics.

If Carlos wins the singles gold, it might be the most impressive feat ever, considering he went from clay to grass then back to clay in a 2-month span.

Rafa finally changed to the thigh sleeve that I assumed he was going to wear for singles instead of the tight thigh bandage.
