For hours and hours in the gym, years and years, and you get

about one minute to show what you have been working on.

To do it today, Olympics Games, I don't know what to say,

And 112 years since golf was last played in the Olympics,

And in the past few minutes Jason Kenny has won gold

ever Olympic gold in gymnastics - he then went on to win a second gold

The third gold came in golf, with a two-shot victory

cycling sprint. There is at least one more medal to

come for Andy Murray, he is playing in the men's tennis final right now.

We begin tonight with all the latest on the gymnastics from our sports

A moment comes when careers are defined.

Max Whitlock. When Max Whitlock's arrived it was

historic for an entire nation. . . Where others faltered on the floor

he was immaculate. Impeccable. Flawless. He needs to land this

tumble. His score of 15.633 wouldn't be

bettered. And Max Whitlock has made his

history. A silver and bronze for Brazil

proved popular here too. But after carrying the weight of British

gymnastic hopes for so long, the union flag must have felt so light

upon his shoulders. Wow. This is an historic moment for

British gymnastics. The first ever Olympic champion in the sport, and

his best event, the pommel horse is yet to come.

Max Whitlock had an hour off to come back down-to-earth.

Simone Biles used that to vault herself into the stratosphere. She

makes the impossible not only look possible but easy, that is gold

number three of a possible five. So to the pommel where Britain's

domination is extraordinary. Louis Smith was the silver medallist in

London who inspired a generation of youngsters to see that gymnastics

could be cool. He here his routine was enough to take the lead and

guarantee a medal. But then came wit lock. Commonwealth

champion, European champion, world champion and now double Olympic

champion. Smith unable to hide his devastation

at silver but his sport thanks him, they will have put British gymnastic

on the map For hours and hours you get about one minute to show gha you

are been working on. I don't know what to say I am so happy.

So after a lifetime waiting for gold, two came along at once.

It was well worth the wait. For more on Justin Rose's

success in the golf, and all the rest of today's action

in Rio, here's Andy Swiss. Some said golf didn't belong in the

Olympics, just try telling Justin Rose. For all its critics it

produced a thrilling somehow down, Rose level with Henrik Stenson

before on the final hole a moment of magic.

Stenson crumbled and Rose duly putted for glory.

It is gold. The first Olympic golf champion for 112 year, for Rose and

Britain though, worth waiting for. That feels as better than any

tournament I have won. Just, this is so unique, so different. The crowd

were incredible, it is, it is a cross between golf and a carnival

type atmosphere, with people being patriotic. In the sailing gold

guaranteed for Giles Scott, successor to Ben Ainslie and living

up to him. The fin title won with races to spare, there was silver for

Nick Dempsey in the wind surfing. Elsewhere at the velodrome the

roommates race Fort Augustus gold. Jason Kenny in the white, column

skinner in the black. A British tussle for the Olympic sprint title.

The best of three and Kenny edged the first. Winwin the second and he

would be champion and he proved unstoppable. His fifth Olympic Gold,

Sir Chris Hoy Sir Steve Redgrave Bradley Wiganings the only Britons

to have done that. In the tennis Andy Murray look fog place in the

record books, as he emerged Del Potro for gold. No player has ever

won two Olympic singles title, can Murray make history on this already

historic day? What an evening we are having here, Jason Kenny with that

remarkable fifth Olympic title, while in the tennis behind me, it is

currently five all in the first set between Andy Murray and Del Potro,

will it be another gold for Team GB, on this extraordinary day?

Thank you for now. Team GB's remarkable acheivements

began in the early hours when Mo Farah retained his 10,000

metres title, winning gold In the heptathlon,

Jessica Ennis-Hill narrowly missed out on gold, and afterwards

hinted at retirement. Our sports editor Dan Roan reports

on the overnight action. No matter how hard they try, Mo

Farah's rivals simply can't keep up. No other British track athlete

has ever won a third Olympic gold. This has now become

distance-running domination. His win last night all

the more remarkable The reigning champion

quickly recovered, and although Kenyan Paul Tanui

made a late charge, They succumb to the inevitable,

bow to his superiority, Four years on from double gold

at London's Games, Farah has another, and with 5000

metres to come next weekend, he is on course for an historic

repeat here in Rio. got to switch it off

and just rest up, that is what I've got to do,

let my body recover In the final event

of the heptathlon, Jessica Ennis-Hill knew

she had to beat leader Nafi Thiam by almost ten seconds

to retain her title. Jess Ennis coming down the home

straight, it's going to be very close to her best, it's going

to be just outside 2:07, 2:09, and Thiam is going to become

the Olympic champion. close enough for the Belgian

to prevail by 35 points. This morning, after a few hours'

reflection in Rio, Ennis-Hill again

hinting at retirement. It's definitely a difficult

decision, but I definitely feel very content with what I've achieved

throughout my career, and this has been an amazing

occasion, and it is my last Olympics, and I think that is why

I was so emotional last night. the other member of Team GB's

gold-winning Super Saturday trio, had to settle for bronze

in the long jump. This evening, though, the attention

turns to one man - Usain Bolt, the Jamaican hoping to complete

an unprecedented hat-trick of Olympic 100m titles

and set these Games alight. Meanwhile, in the pool there was yet

another gold medal for the American He won his 23rd gold in the 4 x 100

metre medley relay final, the final The British team came second -

among those picking up Almost halfway through Day 9

of the Rio Games and there's been a big change for Britain

on the medal table. Team GB are now in second place,

behind the United States, Britain now has 13 golds,

15 silvers and seven bronze medals, He is inside the stadium tonight.

Very hard to keep up, Dan, a remarkable 24 hours. Yes, what you

are witnessing is one of the greatest days in British Olympic

history, if you consider Mo Farah's gold in the early hours as today,

which it was your time and if Andy Murray can win his match later, you

are looking at six golds today, effectively seven if Giles Scott is

considered too. He is guaranteed victory in the sailing. That

surpassing anything we saw even at London 2012. The fact that Team GB

is vying with an lip pick powerhouse like China, with a population of

over one billion people is remarkable when you consider as

recently as 1996 in last night a, 20 years ago goodbye managed just eight

medals. One was gold. Anybody who thinks that fantastic haul four

years ago on home soil was down to the fact it was home advantage must

think again now, a reminder of the game change that Lottery funding has

proved for elite sport in Great Britain. There will be more drama

here in the Olympic Stadium later on round 2.30, your time, the blue

riband event is the 100 metre final and Usain Bolt, a huge amount at

stake for him, he is going to become the first man in Olympic history to

win the 100 metres in three successive games but a huge amount

of stake for Rio 2016 and the organisers too, given the doping

related controversy that overshadowed the build up. The last

thing that organisers may want, is for his nearest challenger, the

American sprinter Justin Gatland who has twice served doping bans to win

a defining vent as this. All will be revealed later when the world for

round 10 seconds will stop, and watch.

The Islamist group Boko Haram has released a video which it says shows

some of the schoolgirls who were kidnapped from

276 girls were abducted from their school more

than two years ago - about 50 appear in the video.

In this report, from Martin Patience, the images

of the girls are obscured, to protect their identity.

Masked and menacing, this militant is very much in charge.

Behind him, the kidnapped schoolgirls

who, two years on, are now young women.

the militant forces one of them to speak.

She says many of the girls have been severely injured

in military air strikes and she calls on the government

to release Boko Haram prisoners to secure their release.

We woke up to a video on the state of our girls.

We are left with mixed feelings of grief and strengthened hope.

as the families came together to watch the latest video.

One father said he was shocked by his daughter's appearance

When I saw her, I'm really very happy because she's still alive.

The students were kidnapped from their school here in Chibok

their abduction sparked international outrage

and shone a spotlight on the brutal Boko Haram insurgency.

But this May, renewed hope for the families

after one of the girls was found alive.

Forced to marry a fighter, Amina has a four-month-old baby.

The government is under intense pressure to free the girls,

and it says that it's in talks with the militants

but it needs to be doubly sure that it's speaking to the right people.

As for the girls' families, well, their agony and their anger goes on.

Thousands have been killed by the Boko Haram insurgency,

and more than two million displaced by the fighting.

This is a conflict far bigger than just Chibok.

The Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn has accused his deputy Tom Watson

of talking nonsense about claims that hard left activists are trying

to infiltrate the party in the run up to the leadership election.

Tom Watson says there is clear evidence to support his allegations.

Earlier today, it was announced that there won't be an appeal

to the Supreme Court about whether new members can vote

Here's our political correspondent, Chris Mason.

Smiles and pleasantries from Jeremy Corbyn today.

Are you in a civil war with Tom Watson?

thank you for coming to my house today, goodbye!

The reality is he and his deputy are pedaling in different directions.

Those who support Mr Corbyn say Tom Watson is talking nonsense

when he says hard-left campaigners are signing up

The allegations being made by Tom Watson

are as ridiculous as they are outlandish.

You know, the Labour Party has over half a million members,

these are ordinary men and women who have come to the Labour Party

because they've been bruised and bloodied by the economic crisis.

But in a post on Facebook tonight, Tom Watson hits back.

He says a small group of left-wing activists do want to seize control.

Yes, the Labour Party has made something of a habit in recent

months of falling out with itself, but this really is something else.

When Jeremy Corbyn publicly describes claims by his deputy

as nonsense, it's proof that the bitterness and rancour

Little wonder that senior figures within the Labour Party

say they've never known it be this divided.

Despite that, the man who wants Jeremy Corbyn's job

reckons he could bring the party together.

I'm convinced that there is far more that unites us than divides us,

and I'm convinced that if I could put together a programme

and a set of people and policies at the heart of the Labour Party

in Parliament, I can get people to rally around that.

Whoever finds themselves in charge of Labour here next month,

the deep divisions won't disappear quickly.

Many believe hard liners within the regime are trying

Do you think she is a pawn in a political game, if so what is it?

I think she is definitely - there is definitely a political game

going on between different parts of the Iranian Government

and Iranian regime, so the revolutionary guard

There have been various attempts by the Iranian Government to improve

relations with the west, and this is, you know,
