Nile has a chance of medalling on high bar. Zonderland and Hambuchen the ones to beat.
Looking good for sailing ladies too.
Bronze for Nile Wilson!
Another fantastic result! So close to the silver as well.
It's hard to state how far we have come in the past few years. Coach Eddie van Hoof, not been mentioned on tv, has revolutionalised British gymnastics.
You really need to watch the pole vault final on the highlights in the morning
100% this. so pleased I stayed up to watch despite the 30 minute delay. this was my highlight of the games so far
The thing that got me was Steve Backley saying "The Brazilian's opted to pass! Well that's.... brave" and Cram going "By brave do you mean foolish?" and them both having to eat their words a few minutes later.
I was getting a little bit wound up as they had 2 commentators neither of whom understood how the count back rule works. the passing was neither brave nor foolish, it was the only option and 100% of the field would have done the same in that situation. Silver was already assured so he obviously wasn't going to waste energy on attempts that wouldn't have improved his position
Mick Conlan was cheated robbed and it's a disgrace you cant even appeal
Joke decision. Check out his interview with RTE, fair to say he doesn't hold back.
He should have been protected by his team before giving that interview there was enough officials with his team that should have contributed. Not poor mick
Don't like that Malaysian rider. He started over the line in the first attempt. Couldn't wait to get ahead. Hope he doesn't cause problems this time too......

And then she opens her gob and she reminds you of a giggling schoolgirl. Quite endearing really.
Laura Trott is unbelievably good.
