RIO DE JANEIRO — She may be headed to her first Olympic final, but Canada’s Melissa Bishop isn’t intimidated by the stage. Bishop had the sixth fastest time of all qualifiers at Olympic Stadium, stopping the clock in 1:59.05. “I think everyone here at the Olympic Games is going for the podium,” Bishop said. This is my first Olympic final, but certainly not my first final. And it’s something the team is focused on rectifying in the Olympic final Friday night.
