good list of lives today. He is riding consistently. He will | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
continue to earn his spot on the Canadian team going forward. You | :00:00. | :00:12. | |
will have to go over 400 to get a medal in this competition. Chew | :00:13. | :00:24. | |
Yiwei was looking like a potential medal contender in the first couple | :00:25. | :00:29. | |
of rounds. Things have not gone quite to plan since. He is one from | :00:30. | :00:30. | |
the bottom. He saved his best out the last, | :00:31. | :00:45. | |
biggest degree of difficulty, 3.4. He was on the money. You need a good | :00:46. | :00:52. | |
solid take-off, those on the end, not over the end. A little bit too | :00:53. | :01:00. | |
much/, not quite vertical. It is a good list of dives for the young | :01:01. | :01:06. | |
18-year-old. A lot of promise therefore Chew Yiwei. His top and | :01:07. | :01:13. | |
bottom of his own programme was pretty good, a bit of a soggy orang | :01:14. | :01:16. | |
in the middle of next! If this goes right, this is the one | :01:17. | :01:31. | |
that Jack Laugher had the problem with, this is potentially 90 point. | :01:32. | :01:41. | |
He has done OK. A bit scruffy for my liking. I will call him a deck chair | :01:42. | :01:47. | |
again. Too much space between chest and thighs. It is a 3.8 dive. I | :01:48. | :01:59. | |
think you will finish around about fourth. It must be the most | :02:00. | :02:06. | |
agonising place to finish as a competitor in any sport. He will be | :02:07. | :02:16. | |
contemplating what might have been. Fengyang Li from New Zealand, to | :02:17. | :02:22. | |
finish up this programme. He finishes off OK. He does a good job | :02:23. | :02:42. | |
finishing up there. He will be at the bottom of the pack, or | :02:43. | :02:47. | |
thereabouts. He hasn't had that much preparation for the Commonwealth | :02:48. | :02:51. | |
Games, he did well to make the final. Oliver Dingley is in third | :02:52. | :03:03. | |
place. This is potentially a medal winning dive for him. A fairly high | :03:04. | :03:17. | |
tariff. Inward three and a half. Still slightly shorter vertical. | :03:18. | :03:23. | |
Will that be enough for a medal? He is currently in bronze medal | :03:24. | :03:28. | |
position. I would have liked to have seen him a little bit more vertical. | :03:29. | :03:37. | |
Will it be enough to put him on the podium? If it is, well done, that | :03:38. | :03:46. | |
man! Good dive, Oliver Dingley. The 21-year-old, trained stand in | :03:47. | :03:53. | |
Southend. Here is Yona Knight-Wisdom, finishing off with | :03:54. | :03:57. | |
his forward to and have somersaults with two twist. Struggling again | :03:58. | :04:06. | |
with another big dive. You can see him shaking his head. Look at the | :04:07. | :04:11. | |
grimace on his face trying to make the dive. It is a long, long way to | :04:12. | :04:18. | |
go when you didn't get take-off right. | :04:19. | :04:21. | |
the dive. It is a long, long way to go when you didn't I take my hat off | :04:22. | :04:25. | |
to you, Yona Knight-Wisdom. He has been guiding out of his skin. Hasn't | :04:26. | :04:27. | |
he just? So, James Denny has a chance of | :04:28. | :04:49. | |
going above Oliver Dingley. We know the risks attached to this. We sort | :04:50. | :04:55. | |
go wrong for Jack Laugher. A foreword for and have somersaults | :04:56. | :05:07. | |
with tuck. -- four and a half. Not quite on the entry! The splash going | :05:08. | :05:23. | |
away. Not had enough for a medal. He will be back for the ten-metre | :05:24. | :05:26. | |
individual. He will partner Tom Daley in the synchro. Last chance to | :05:27. | :05:38. | |
see James Heatly. A great reception. What a great performance it has | :05:39. | :05:45. | |
been. If he could get 75 points here. Probably too much to ask. | :05:46. | :05:58. | |
It is a good dive. He will get over the 400. Probably about 397. He has | :05:59. | :06:13. | |
made one mistake in this final. He will be a couple of points short of | :06:14. | :06:18. | |
his personal best. What a list of dives in the final. Big smile. 17 | :06:19. | :06:31. | |
years old. Son of Sir Peter Heatley. His grandfather one gold in 1954 and | :06:32. | :06:38. | |
1958. His grandson has done him proud. | :06:39. | :06:42. | |
What a dive from Riley McCormick! Awesome effort! Will adapt squeeze | :06:43. | :06:56. | |
him up towards the medal contenders? That is a brilliant, brilliant dive. | :06:57. | :07:13. | |
Riley McCormick has moved into second place at the moment, just | :07:14. | :07:24. | |
behind Oliver Dingley. This man threatened for a bit, but it all | :07:25. | :07:31. | |
kind of went away for Francois Imbeau-Dulac. He manages to do it | :07:32. | :07:42. | |
off as shoddy hurdle step! Fleet ride over the end of the diving | :07:43. | :07:49. | |
board. How he managed to do that with such a shoddy take-off, I don't | :07:50. | :07:58. | |
know. Well done, that man. He has hit 400. Five divers have now gone | :07:59. | :08:08. | |
over the 400 mark. What will happen next? It is in the hands of Ooi Tze | :08:09. | :08:20. | |
Liang. His last dive. I think we could be looking at her | :08:21. | :08:25. | |
gold-medallist! He had an 11 point lead going into that, and that dive | :08:26. | :08:33. | |
was superb. He has performed out of his skin. Jack Laugher has faltered. | :08:34. | :08:40. | |
Jack Laugher still to go. He needs the dive of his life. Jack Laugher | :08:41. | :08:55. | |
needs 87 points. We have only seen him up in that region once, 89 | :08:56. | :08:57. | |
points this morning. No, not good enough. It will | :08:58. | :09:15. | |
definitely be a silver. What a shame. It will be close. He kicks | :09:16. | :09:24. | |
out a little bit early. Still a good dive. You can see the | :09:25. | :09:32. | |
disappointment. I don't know what to say. His face says it all. Ooi | :09:33. | :09:39. | |
disappointment. I don't know what to champion. Congratulations to | :09:40. | :09:46. | |
Malaysia and congratulations to the 20-year-old, introduced the diving | :09:47. | :09:52. | |
at the age of eight by his dad, and he was petrified, frightened stiff! | :09:53. | :09:57. | |
You said, I never want to do that again! His father persisted and | :09:58. | :10:03. | |
eventually he got a taste for it. Not only that, but he has come to | :10:04. | :10:09. | |
Edinburgh and the 2014 Commonwealth Games and picked up a gold medal. | :10:10. | :10:14. | |
England in second and third. Jack Laugher has picked up the silver. He | :10:15. | :10:25. | |
was very much the strongest competitor in the preliminaries, | :10:26. | :10:30. | |
was very much the strongest he will have to make do with silver | :10:31. | :10:37. | |
this time. Riley McCormick just missing | :10:38. | :10:40. | |
this time. Riley McCormick just James Denny, we will see | :10:41. | :10:43. | |
this time. Riley McCormick just with Tom Daley on the ten-metre | :10:44. | :10:44. | |
board tomorrow. Eighth place for James Heatly in this competition is | :10:45. | :11:14. | |
fantastic. Two medals for England, not | :11:15. | :11:16. | |
necessarily did to we were expect in, but nonetheless, good for | :11:17. | :11:23. | |
England. All the rest of the team were jumping around having a great | :11:24. | :11:27. | |
time supporting their fellow divers. Jack Laugher takes silver, Oliver | :11:28. | :11:35. | |
Dingley takes bronze. We will catch up with them later on. | :11:36. | :11:41. | |
Great stuff, Helen! That is the end of the afternoon session for us, so | :11:42. | :11:46. | |
to speak. So much to come in the company of Dan Walker. What is it | :11:47. | :11:52. | |
about the weather at around about seven o'clock! We have had to come | :11:53. | :12:05. | |
in today. Have a lovely evening. We have some diving, gymnastics, | :12:06. | :12:11. | |
boxing as well. Right now, before we get into all of that, here is the | :12:12. | :12:15. | |

Back to Dan in Glasgow. Yeah, I am looking for | :13:29. | :13:44. | |
a Prince Charming. I don't think I'm ugly, but I don't | :13:45. | :13:46. | |
think I'm, like, really pretty. I say, "You've got something | :13:47. | :13:49. | |
on your bum." "Really?" And I say, Welcome to yet another night of | :13:50. | :14:47. | |

find out which sport you are best suited to. Ask you a simple series | :16:39. | :16:42. | |
of questions, height, agility and it picks a sport for you. Mine was | :16:43. | :16:50. | |
netball! I don't think I have never been the right shape for gymnastics, | :16:51. | :16:53. | |
that is where we are going to start. It has been a packed few day, the | :16:54. | :16:57. | |
last day of the gymnastics is tomorrow. There has been more medals | :16:58. | :17:03. | |
today. Max Whitlock and Claudiaing from pain picked up their third meed | :17:04. | :17:09. | |
million of the games and Dan Keatings got Scotland's second ever | :17:10. | :17:14. | |
medal in the games. Whitlock could win another one in the final of the | :17:15. | :17:17. | |
ring, that is where we will take you now. | :17:18. | :17:26. | |
-- medal of the games. Puff will do all he can o -- Daniel | :17:27. | :17:33. | |
Purvis will do all he can in this individual final. The men's ridges. | :17:34. | :17:36. | |
Very Purvis will do all he can in this | :17:37. | :17:36. | |
individual final. The men's ridges. Very secure in the Maltese. There is | :17:37. | :17:41. | |
your cross. And a nice circle to cross, so three | :17:42. | :17:55. | |
very good strength openers. And a double to a rock solid | :17:56. | :18:03. | |
straddle planche. Double pike, swing to handstand. | :18:04. | :18:12. | |
Very nice. Double, double. So Dan Purvis, a good start to this rings | :18:13. | :18:18. | |
final. Wow! Obviously gave away a little bit on dismount, but other | :18:19. | :18:22. | |
than that he was very very sharp, and he has this kind of real slow | :18:23. | :18:26. | |
and steady style, which is so suited for this piece of apparatus, Chris. | :18:27. | :18:31. | |
It is, and he has been a very slow starter at this Championship, but | :18:32. | :18:36. | |
today, he seems to have got some fire underneath him. | :18:37. | :18:40. | |
He got the fire and also the technique, he kept the swing going, | :18:41. | :18:45. | |
it was really impressive through the double Sam toes, you | :18:46. | :18:46. | |
it was really impressive through the the top. -- saltos. If you bend the | :18:47. | :18:53. | |
arms you can get quite a deduction. the top. -- saltos. If you bend the | :18:54. | :19:00. | |
It used to be a tenth, so, I thought he did a good job here good | :19:01. | :19:03. | |
technique on the circle. Watch this. He cannot pause at any | :19:04. | :19:10. | |
stage in a double rotation, it is pure swing. | :19:11. | :19:36. | |
It will be a story of top 14s that will medal. There is Dan with his | :19:37. | :19:41. | |
personal coach. Geoff Brooks coached him for a lot of year, great to see | :19:42. | :19:49. | |
him here. 14.766. In with a chance. . More than a chance. He didn't give | :19:50. | :19:52. | |
a lot away. The Welshman, Clinton Purnell, next | :19:53. | :20:09. | |
to hang the rings. Taking on as much oxygen as | :20:10. | :20:14. | |
possible, because this, without question, is the strength Sapper of | :20:15. | :20:23. | |
the six pieces. Lovely start. Seated cross, into | :20:24. | :20:30. | |
Maltese, this is impressive stuff so far. | :20:31. | :20:39. | |
Into the circle to handstand early on, double rotation. | :20:40. | :20:46. | |
To Maltese, had to adjust his feet a little, but he really is... Looking | :20:47. | :20:54. | |
good. Looking secure. He is in very good | :20:55. | :20:57. | |
nick, Looking secure. He is in very good | :20:58. | :21:03. | |
through this Commonwealth Games. Just a bit soft in the back. Circle | :21:04. | :21:08. | |
to handstand. Stand this up, he might be in business. Oh! It was a C | :21:09. | :21:14. | |
dismount but he stood it up. Clint got a seventh in the all | :21:15. | :21:18. | |
dismount but he stood it up. Clint competition. Surely he must be | :21:19. | :21:21. | |
tired, but he didn't show it there. He has done every final today, | :21:22. | :21:26. | |
hasn't he. It is a great competition. | :21:27. | :21:33. | |
A real stand out for me, actually. Clint Purnell. | :21:34. | :21:39. | |
That the swinging section, you have to show the strength. I love the way | :21:40. | :21:44. | |
he fingished the swing in a strength move. | :21:45. | :21:49. | |
That is a requirement and he did it brilliantly. Is question is is the | :21:50. | :21:54. | |
difficulty enough? Because Purvis has got a 6.2. It would be down a | :21:55. | :22:01. | |
little bit, but not a lot. And he did really go for this, Chris, | :22:02. | :22:06. | |
didn't he, the swing was good. The strength parts were held and | :22:07. | :22:10. | |
precise, just the dismount wasn't difficult enough. | :22:11. | :22:16. | |
When we say it's a C instead of a D, that means you get 0.5 | :22:17. | :22:18. | |
When we say it's a C instead of a D, is, if you only have a C dismount | :22:19. | :22:23. | |
you get 0.3. If you have less than a is, if you only have a C dismount | :22:24. | :22:30. | |
C you don't get anything. A big dismount is important in building | :22:31. | :22:36. | |
your score. But he nailed it. No good doing a D and taking a step | :22:37. | :22:42. | |
because you lose more than you get. He has done a good job as Welsh | :22:43. | :22:48. | |
national coach. The score to beat is Scotland's Dan Purvis. Second place | :22:49. | :22:57. | |
at the moment. 14.533. But very good execution score at 8.7. Here comes | :22:58. | :23:05. | |
the highest qualifier. Took a silver earlier on today on floor. He has a | :23:06. | :23:20. | |
start score, of difficulty of 6.6. Very carefully, oh, yes. Shrug up | :23:21. | :23:29. | |
into top planche. Lower to Maltese, back up to Maltese, top drawer | :23:30. | :23:34. | |
stuff. Swing he must. And he swings to the inverted cross, which is | :23:35. | :23:41. | |
Frank sun high. Forward. Tiny hesitation through | :23:42. | :23:46. | |
support on the move, but the Maltese and the cross that follows it, | :23:47. | :23:56. | |
solid. Very very strong. | :23:57. | :24:00. | |
Precise in all the planche positions. | :24:01. | :24:05. | |
Tiny suggestion of bent arms and the circle stance, but a double, double | :24:06. | :24:09. | |
to finish. Difficulty wise it is there. | :24:10. | :24:14. | |
Execution wise, close. It is going to be tight. 14.766 the | :24:15. | :24:21. | |
score to beat. 15.2 he posted in qualification. And Dan Purvis was an | :24:22. | :24:27. | |
execution score of 8.5. So he needs to be below that, | :24:28. | :24:32. | |
really. It wasn't that... It was well executed really If you look | :24:33. | :24:37. | |
closely you can see the arms bendly frequently and the judges have been | :24:38. | :24:42. | |
told three tenths every time but if they do that, he would be down on | :24:43. | :24:49. | |
execution. You need to be clean on straight arms and everything. Very | :24:50. | :24:55. | |
impressive strength work. Yes. Very bent there. | :24:56. | :25:07. | |
Lovely straight body shape. He is a strong old boy! | :25:08. | :25:24. | |
Scott Morgan pretty much middle of the field here. Max Whitlock to | :25:25. | :25:32. | |
come. Matthew Palmer for New Zealand. Tsukahara and Lytwyn will | :25:33. | :25:44. | |
be the last to round off the final. Certainly -- certainly good enough | :25:45. | :25:51. | |
for a medal but what colour? Well, for the moment, it is gold. 15.1, | :25:52. | :26:01. | |
8.5 on execution. Purvis, drops to silver. | :26:02. | :26:08. | |
So, is yet another medal on the menu for Max Whitlock? Another young man | :26:09. | :26:27. | |
who has been thoroughly coached. He has come to the strength parts late, | :26:28. | :26:33. | |
but they are there now. There is the cross. Up into top planche. Deep in | :26:34. | :26:41. | |
the chest. Giant, very precise. Very difficult | :26:42. | :26:56. | |
do that move. Translates it, into a swing to handstand. Double pike, | :26:57. | :27:01. | |
double tuck, good swing, and that is skill. Well done. | :27:02. | :27:09. | |
Good security in the lift to handstand. Double, double, with the | :27:10. | :27:17. | |
pace back. Well, that is the best rings routine I have ever seen him | :27:18. | :27:23. | |
do. He will get better and better on ring, won't he? He has always had | :27:24. | :27:28. | |
the swing, now the strength is creeping in and watch out. He is | :27:29. | :27:33. | |
such a light body frame he will get stronger and he will be able to make | :27:34. | :27:39. | |
the strength elements. See, we talk about straight arms | :27:40. | :27:46. | |
Chris, and look a this. Yes, and really swinging is becoming a lot | :27:47. | :27:50. | |
more important in the routines than it was at one time, isn't it. The | :27:51. | :27:56. | |
judge, it is very hard to take stuff off strong moves. The judges are | :27:57. | :28:00. | |
really looking at the swing. Look at the straight arms here, this is | :28:01. | :28:04. | |
lovely work, even just a tiny bend in the transition to top planche. | :28:05. | :28:09. | |
This is great technically. Well, from an execution point of | :28:10. | :28:17. | |
view, the best score we have seen is Purnell, Clint Purnell, 8.733. | :28:18. | :28:27. | |
Nobody could do a good move on straight arms, bend will be | :28:28. | :28:29. | |
permissable. you have to really go for it to get | :28:30. | :28:46. | |
those twist sin. Right over the top of the rings. | :28:47. | :28:53. | |
Scott Morgan leads the field at the moment. At the moment it is a bronze | :28:54. | :29:10. | |
for Max Whitlock. Zero -- zero .534 behind the leader. Here is Kevin | :29:11. | :29:18. | |
Lytwyn from Canada. Very strong start. | :29:19. | :29:33. | |
Just needed to get it down a little bit further on the inverted. The | :29:34. | :29:42. | |
Very crisp technique. Yes! That was moving. | :29:43. | :30:04. | |
Very crisp technique. Yes! That was a good routine! Gold, silver or | :30:05. | :30:11. | |
bronze? It has got to be one of them. Silver. I am saying silver. | :30:12. | :30:29. | |
15.1 is the scored to beat. I stand to be corrected. I wouldn't dream of | :30:30. | :30:41. | |
it! Thinking back, the strength parts were very good. It was only | :30:42. | :30:46. | |
the inverted cross missing and he absolutely nailed the dismount. He | :30:47. | :30:54. | |
will be close. He was a 6.2 in qualifying against Morgan's 6.6. I | :30:55. | :31:05. | |
think Morgan has the leeway. Execution, that was great. Brilliant | :31:06. | :31:17. | |
work. A great routine. Very disciplined. At the moment, Daniel | :31:18. | :31:25. | |
Purvis for Scotland is an silver medal position. Scott Morgan leads | :31:26. | :31:35. | |
the competition with 15.1. Will Kevin Lytwyn squeeze in between them | :31:36. | :31:44. | |
and puts Daniel Purvis -- put Daniel Purvis down | :31:45. | :31:54. | |
He just said, what are they going to do? Looking at those two, you can | :31:55. | :32:08. | |
see who is better positioned for the power needed for the rings? We are | :32:09. | :32:22. | |
still waiting. A friendly tension between them. It is a silver for | :32:23. | :32:32. | |
Kevin Lytwyn. 14.8. It is Scott Morgan who takes the gold. Kevin | :32:33. | :32:39. | |
Lytwyn the silver. Daniel Purvis, for Scotland, takes a bronze medal. | :32:40. | :32:43. | |
Lytwyn the silver. Daniel Purvis, So, bronze for Daniel Purvis, silver | :32:44. | :32:44. | |
and gold for Canada. We So, bronze for Daniel Purvis, silver | :32:45. | :32:48. | |
a goal for England in So, bronze for Daniel Purvis, silver | :32:49. | :32:53. | |
balls. They were So, bronze for Daniel Purvis, silver | :32:54. | :32:56. | |
in the women's triples match. England pummelled them 22-4. | :32:57. | :33:19. | |
Congratulations, what a fantastic performance! To beat Australia do we | :33:20. | :33:28. | |
do have, that is incredible! We are all in shock. We started off really, | :33:29. | :33:34. | |
really well and it was just a case of keeping that momentum. Sian | :33:35. | :33:47. | |
Gordon, you seem to have radar on you today! I didn't have to do much | :33:48. | :33:55. | |
at all, my girls were brilliant. Sophie, as your first experience of | :33:56. | :33:58. | |
the Commonwealth Games, this must be incredible. Yes, we are all | :33:59. | :34:16. | |
shocked. So pleased with the result. Ellen Falkner, you have done this | :34:17. | :34:20. | |
before, but this must be hard to beat? It is fantastic. It could not | :34:21. | :34:24. | |
have played any better. We are over the moon. You are standing alongside | :34:25. | :34:34. | |
to girls in your 20s, what does it say about the current state of the | :34:35. | :34:39. | |
sport? It is certainly in very safe hands. I hope the performance today | :34:40. | :34:44. | |
will inspire young people to get involved in the sport, get more | :34:45. | :34:53. | |
people in enjoying it. Could you have imagined a better start, Sian | :34:54. | :35:01. | |
Gordon? No, we had a dream start. We came out guns blazing, which is what | :35:02. | :35:08. | |
we wanted to do. When you knew you had it, what was that like? Amazing. | :35:09. | :35:14. | |
You can't describe it. Who will lead the party celebrations tonight Mr | :35:15. | :35:21. | |
Mike you will all have to get dried up first! | :35:22. | :35:30. | |
Normally we show you what is going on out there. The music continues. | :35:31. | :35:41. | |
If you come this way, we can speak to a lovely young lady who has been | :35:42. | :35:48. | |
performing this afternoon. You are now being called Eller the bird. I | :35:49. | :35:55. | |
have always wanted to change my name, and that just luck. Is it just | :35:56. | :36:05. | |
for performances? It is supposed to be Eller the bird, like a singing | :36:06. | :36:09. | |
bird, and I wanted to be main stage name. How was the performance? It | :36:10. | :36:23. | |
was amazing. A fantastic atmosphere, the place is buzzing. It is a BBC | :36:24. | :36:30. | |
introduces session tonight, so lots of bands that people might not know. | :36:31. | :36:38. | |
This is an event which is great for doing that sort of thing, isn't it? | :36:39. | :36:43. | |
Has been great to be able to play at it. We did a couple of shoes last | :36:44. | :36:47. | |
week for the Commonwealth Games outside and it was great. What have | :36:48. | :36:54. | |
you made of the games generally? Most people seem to think it is | :36:55. | :36:58. | |
great for Glasgow, and Scotland as well? It is great to have it in | :36:59. | :37:03. | |
Glasgow, lovely to be able to play to an international audience. | :37:04. | :37:08. | |
Everybody has been so excited. Especially the weather. Apart from | :37:09. | :37:17. | |
tonight! It is still warm! I like the way you're always for positives. | :37:18. | :37:25. | |
What else do you have going on tonight? A lot of live shows. I am | :37:26. | :37:40. | |
playing in Cambridge this Sunday. In Edinburgh, at the Festival, doing a | :37:41. | :37:54. | |
show on the 13th. It is great to have you here. | :37:55. | :37:57. | |
In terms of what we are doing with our social media tonight from | :37:58. | :38:01. | |
anything you would like to centre to us you can. The hash news is below. | :38:02. | :38:12. | |
We will be doing our snack news again. And your pictures as well. | :38:13. | :38:20. | |
Whether at an event, or just watching the Commonwealth Games at | :38:21. | :38:24. | |
home, or listening to it at home on the radio. We will take you diving | :38:25. | :38:33. | |
now, over to Edinburgh. Will Helen Skelton and Leon Taylor have more to | :38:34. | :38:37. | |
talk us through tonight? Let's find out. | :38:38. | :38:44. | |
It started so well, didn't it? Tonight it is silver and bronze for | :38:45. | :38:49. | |
Oliver Dingley and Jack Laugher. How frustrating is this? A silver | :38:50. | :39:09. | |
medal is great, don't get me wrong, but this is my main event. I thought | :39:10. | :39:18. | |
of the back of my performances, I may be able to get a gold medal | :39:19. | :39:25. | |
here. I am still buzzing, but they made some mistakes. Surely it gives | :39:26. | :39:29. | |
you something to work on. You can take 20 away from it? I am only 19 | :39:30. | :39:35. | |
years old, so to get a gold medal yesterday and the silver today, that | :39:36. | :39:41. | |
is great. My coaches is aware what mistakes I made and we will work on | :39:42. | :39:50. | |
that on the off season. Jack, you blew the field away last night. The | :39:51. | :39:56. | |
same again this morning. Does that give you confidence or does that | :39:57. | :40:03. | |
give you pressure? Winning a preliminary gives you a lot of | :40:04. | :40:06. | |
pressure because you are the last diver. I take it in my stride. It | :40:07. | :40:13. | |
shows the judges what you are about, but you mean business. It didn't | :40:14. | :40:21. | |
work for me today, but it is still a good performance. Just one of those | :40:22. | :40:26. | |
days, really. He still got the silver medal! Tell me about Chris, | :40:27. | :40:35. | |
your synchro partner. Did you miss him? I always miss him! Training out | :40:36. | :40:44. | |
-- without him today was a bit strange. We are back again together | :40:45. | :40:48. | |
tomorrow and hopefully we will smash it up. Fingers crossed. Does it give | :40:49. | :40:54. | |
you more determination to go for gold again? Definitely. A silver is | :40:55. | :41:06. | |
fantastic, but it does hurt. What went wrong? Jack Laugher was | :41:07. | :41:14. | |
not on his game this evening. His first couple of diets were not the | :41:15. | :41:17. | |
formidable force that he showed earlier. Dive number five, his most | :41:18. | :41:27. | |
complicated dive, 3.8 degrees of difficulty, lots of things can go | :41:28. | :41:33. | |
wrong. He just did not get the take he needed. He virtually does a | :41:34. | :41:40. | |
forward roll into the water and the judges punished him for that. Four | :41:41. | :41:50. | |
and a half somersaults. Just a slight mistake on the take-off. I | :41:51. | :41:58. | |
really felt for him. He did five out of six diets really well. Very | :41:59. | :42:03. | |
gracious in defeat. He was gutted. I wanted to hug him. As a mentor and | :42:04. | :42:11. | |
coach, would you maybe get some psychology, work under pressure side | :42:12. | :42:17. | |
of it? It is a very different dynamic coming in as the one to | :42:18. | :42:25. | |
beat. That is the name of the game. Let's talk about Tonia Couch and | :42:26. | :42:34. | |
Sarah Barrow and Victoria Vincent. Tonia Couch was brilliant this | :42:35. | :42:39. | |
morning. Yes, this is wide open. You have the elation, he is brilliant. | :42:40. | :42:49. | |
Tonia Couch is informed. Does she stand on the podium? Let's wait and | :42:50. | :43:00. | |
see. Tonia Couch made a mess of her last I. She absolutely nailed this | :43:01. | :43:11. | |
dive. Victoria Vincent, always with a big smile on her face, she is a | :43:12. | :43:17. | |
superstar. We are only moments away from the women's ten metres | :43:18. | :43:24. | |
platform. Victoria Vincent, only 13 years old. She is a force to be | :43:25. | :43:31. | |
reckoned with. Who knows where she will take this diving career? Bob | :43:32. | :43:37. | |
Ballard, take us through this women's ten-metre platform. | :43:38. | :43:52. | |
BOB: Victoria Vincent, 13-year-old, the youngest competitor for | :43:53. | :43:59. | |
England. She will be up after Sarah Barrow, two English competitors back | :44:00. | :44:04. | |
to back. Tonia Couch will be to from the end. For those who have come a | :44:05. | :44:12. | |
bit late, I can reveal the way that the first and second by results, | :44:13. | :44:15. | |
they tossed a coin. the first and second by results, | :44:16. | :44:26. | |
same marks, did Loh Zhiayi and Carol-Ann Ware. They got the coin, | :44:27. | :44:27. | |
double headed coin! champion commentators game. I will | :44:28. | :44:56. | |
bypass that. We will be ready to go shortly and we will keep you | :44:57. | :45:00. | |
up-to-date as we go along with who is where. I think, I don't know what | :45:01. | :45:06. | |
you think, we will find out what you think, Leon, it is going to be a | :45:07. | :45:11. | |
wide-open competition tonight, there is not an obvious stand out for a | :45:12. | :45:16. | |
victory. There is real talent in this field. You have Olympic | :45:17. | :45:23. | |
medallist, European medallist, Commonwealth medallists, a high | :45:24. | :45:32. | |
class field. Sarah Barrow if she is on form, Victoria Vincent, | :45:33. | :45:38. | |
13-year-old. Let us see, five dive, every dive count, we have seen | :45:39. | :45:42. | |
mistakes in all the competitions, who will be consistency and put the | :45:43. | :45:46. | |
pressure on? We saw it in the synchro last night. Who wanted to | :45:47. | :45:53. | |
lose it most or win it most, or be somewhere in the middle of the pack. | :45:54. | :45:59. | |
They will take this competition by the scruff of the neck and go on and | :46:00. | :46:04. | |
win it. Hopefully one of the 12, maybe more than one of the 12 will | :46:05. | :46:11. | |
show that kind of impulse. So, on to Loh Zhiayi, of Malaysia. | :46:12. | :46:17. | |
She will open one a back two-and-a-half somersaults. | :46:18. | :46:25. | |
Yes, she opened wit an easy dive. Lowest degree of difficulty. Here we | :46:26. | :46:28. | |
go. Swinging the arm, half a twist. Folding into the pike shape. Very | :46:29. | :46:34. | |
very easy. She is only 16. So, just, actually, saw her in training before | :46:35. | :46:41. | |
this come. Absolutely stacked it, not on this dive, but she bounced on | :46:42. | :46:47. | |
the water. She is obviously made of platinum or something, that doesn't, | :46:48. | :46:51. | |
doesn't get damaged, because he seem, you know, to be OK. She may be | :46:52. | :46:57. | |
impervious to that. She may be wear of what she has achieved on the | :46:58. | :47:01. | |
board. You have seen a glimpse of it. 50.7. 0.25% 0.25% we know has | :47:02. | :47:11. | |
several injury concerned, including the heavily taped wrists. Very | :47:12. | :47:17. | |
strong. Good take off. I love the way she comes out, really positive, | :47:18. | :47:24. | |
really strong you can see the tape on the right arm. Almost gets the | :47:25. | :47:29. | |
entry on that one. Probably sevens coming her way. Not getting in as | :47:30. | :47:35. | |
elegantly as she wants to. That splash could be due to the wrist | :47:36. | :47:39. | |
injuries. Talking with the coach about what went well, what didn't go | :47:40. | :47:44. | |
well. Marks are OK. Happy enough. She should be with | :47:45. | :47:52. | |
that 67.2. First, of the three Australians is | :47:53. | :47:56. | |
Rachel Bugg, with a forward three-and-a-half somersaults. | :47:57. | :47:59. | |
Just letting that one get away from her. | :48:00. | :48:05. | |
Really attacks the start but overrotating into the water, so | :48:06. | :48:11. | |
beautiful pike shape, just way over. Four-and-a-half, five, probably for | :48:12. | :48:14. | |
that. He just doesn't spot the water. Keeps her chin tucked in. And | :48:15. | :48:18. | |
rolls right over. Look at this shot. She is watching, | :48:19. | :48:21. | |
we are watching her, watching herself on the screen. | :48:22. | :48:28. | |
It is like life imitating art, or is it art imitating life? I don't know, | :48:29. | :48:34. | |
but but it is real life and they are real marks for Rachel Bugg Sarah | :48:35. | :48:43. | |
Barrow necks up. I get the jitter, fortunately the | :48:44. | :48:53. | |
divers don't. -- next -- next up. The higher tariff dives for the | :48:54. | :48:56. | |
divers in the opening round. Any one of the diver going to do a | :48:57. | :49:01. | |
3.2 after Sarah and that is Tonia Couch. | :49:02. | :49:16. | |
Wow, what a solid handstand from Sarah. Unwavering. | :49:17. | :49:27. | |
Good take off, one-and-a-half twist, double somersault, just marginally | :49:28. | :49:32. | |
overrotating on the end, so a bit over a vertical. Judges are going to | :49:33. | :49:38. | |
penalise for that even though it was steady balance. Two sixes is and a | :49:39. | :49:50. | |
6.5 will count in the mark, 59.2 is ho it adds up. -- is how it adds up. | :49:51. | :49:56. | |
We lose top and bottom. Only the three middle marks will count toward | :49:57. | :50:03. | |
her total. That was 59.20 for Sarah. Now, 13 years old. What were you | :50:04. | :50:08. | |
doing at 13, you weren't competing at the Commonwealth Games I would | :50:09. | :50:11. | |
venture to suggest. Two-and-a-half somersaults with pike for Victoria | :50:12. | :50:17. | |
Vincent, 2.8. Yes, let's go VV. As she is known by | :50:18. | :50:25. | |
her friends and fellow divers. Victoria Vincent 13-year-old, | :50:26. | :50:29. | |
youngest competitor in the competition. | :50:30. | :50:35. | |
Fraction short of vertical, but very clean, very tidy. Over 60 points, | :50:36. | :50:39. | |
second place on the leader Bor board. 63 point, until a month ago | :50:40. | :50:43. | |
she didn't think she would be competing. An appeal was put in. She | :50:44. | :50:49. | |
is not even old enough for the European juniors. But she can do | :50:50. | :50:56. | |
Commonwealth Games, because we saw a competitor earlier at the age of 13. | :50:57. | :51:02. | |
The same age. So in terms of age, right now Lara Tarvit for Australia. | :51:03. | :51:08. | |
Four-and-a-half somersaults with pike. . Another good one. She came | :51:09. | :51:13. | |
out with this opening dive in the preliminary, and she nailed her | :51:14. | :51:18. | |
first two dives, and went a bit off the boil and then came back, that is | :51:19. | :51:22. | |
why you are seeing her mid range in the start number. Diving in verse | :51:23. | :51:25. | |
order. That is a good start. Couple of | :51:26. | :51:33. | |
eights coming her way. -- reverse. Tomorrower trampolinist, Lara | :51:34. | :51:37. | |
Tarvit, with a couple of eights -- former trampolinist. She has a | :51:38. | :51:45. | |
couple of eights. First diver to do a 07-plus dive. Third Qegu Melissa | :51:46. | :51:52. | |
Wu. She is back with a vengeance it would seem. Oh my goodness. So let | :51:53. | :52:00. | |
us see what happened. That is a failed dive. She only did three | :52:01. | :52:03. | |
somersaults. Obviously something happened. I think she slips out of | :52:04. | :52:07. | |
her pike shape. So look at that right hand, just slips out. She | :52:08. | :52:10. | |
doesn't know where she is, she reaches up into the air. Wow, this | :52:11. | :52:15. | |
final is full of everything. She was so, so lucky not to absolutely wipe | :52:16. | :52:20. | |
out there. This is extraordinary, I told you anything could happen, that | :52:21. | :52:23. | |
is the first thing to happen. There is her coach, she will be in a bit | :52:24. | :52:29. | |
of shock. What happened? She couldn't get into her pike shape. I | :52:30. | :52:33. | |
wonder whether she will carry on, she did have injury problem, she | :52:34. | :52:39. | |
took a year out because of those, and maybe her coach is having a chat | :52:40. | :52:43. | |
about whether she needs to carry on. She won't get a medal off the back | :52:44. | :52:48. | |
of that. Now, Cheong Jun Hoong, forward three-and-a-half somersaults | :52:49. | :52:51. | |
with pike. Wow, what a dive. Exactly the same | :52:52. | :52:58. | |
dive we just saw Melissa Wu get disorientated in and slip out of | :52:59. | :53:02. | |
medal. The Malaysian making easy work of this dive. Drilling her | :53:03. | :53:07. | |
entry, such a beautiful dive. A great toe point. Veriel Gant. Really | :53:08. | :53:14. | |
enjoying -- very elegant. Really enjoying watching her diving. When | :53:15. | :53:17. | |
the marks come up they will be big and she will go into the lead with | :53:18. | :53:22. | |
that. We got them. You will get them in a moment. 75 exactly. | :53:23. | :53:30. | |
They talking about Taaffe Taaffe going over -- Lara Tarvit going over | :53:31. | :53:35. | |
70. She couldn't quite get a nine. She deserved to get a nine with | :53:36. | :53:41. | |
that. Two 8.#5s and an eight. That is laying down a marker early on. -- | :53:42. | :53:52. | |
8.5s: Meaghan Benfeito up next. Getting used to this dive. | :53:53. | :53:54. | |
8.5s: Meaghan Benfeito up next. take the lead. | :53:55. | :53:59. | |
Oh, that is excellent. That is marvellous start. | :54:00. | :54:07. | |
Already the gold medallist in the synchronised event with her partner | :54:08. | :54:11. | |
Roseline who appears later, that is bang on the money. We are round 75 | :54:12. | :54:19. | |
again I reckon. 8.5, maybe a nine, that was, wow, explosive powerful | :54:20. | :54:23. | |
stuff. Great finish. And the judges have hit the repeat button. | :54:24. | :54:30. | |
Exactly the same as Cheong Jun Hoong, 75. Now the best placed of | :54:31. | :54:35. | |
the English divers after the Hoong, 75. Now the best placed of | :54:36. | :54:41. | |
leading for the first four rounds this morning. | :54:42. | :54:44. | |
A really this morning. | :54:45. | :54:49. | |
dive. This is it. Back two-and-a-half somersaults and | :54:50. | :54:52. | |
one-and-a-half twists in the pike position. | :54:53. | :54:57. | |
Oh just looks a bit too pumped up. That dive just getting away from | :54:58. | :55:02. | |
Antonia, take off is really really good. Good extension. Folds into the | :55:03. | :55:07. | |
pike position, just allows the dive to tip over. Just a little bit past | :55:08. | :55:12. | |
verticalful which mean she won't get more than seven, she has some work | :55:13. | :55:15. | |
to do. That isn't as good as this morning, she scored more than that | :55:16. | :55:17. | |
this morning. morning, she scored more than that | :55:18. | :55:22. | |
Yes, 67 this time round, for Tonia, so she will not be leading this time | :55:23. | :55:25. | |
at the end of the first round. morning. | :55:26. | :55:44. | |
She will go in 11th place after the coin toss. | :55:45. | :55:48. | |
It is good. It is 2.8 coin toss. | :55:49. | :55:54. | |
difficulty, so she will be starting a bit further back, from degree of | :55:55. | :56:00. | |
difficulty-wise, that is God. That will get her some eights. Very easy | :56:01. | :56:07. | |
to tip your toes on the diving board. I am pleased to say she | :56:08. | :56:12. | |
wasn't anywhere near the diving board. Eight is about right. And | :56:13. | :56:17. | |
67.2 is what she picked up off that. She will have a bigger Taff riff | :56:18. | :56:24. | |
dive to come, as indeed will joint leader for the morning. Pandelela | :56:25. | :56:31. | |
Rinong Pamg of Malaysia, going with a three-and-a-half somersault, seen | :56:32. | :56:33. | |
this dive before, you will see it again at the end of round one. | :56:34. | :56:40. | |
Oh, it is almost the opening they have been looking for, can they do | :56:41. | :56:48. | |
the double? We have seen Ooi win the three metre. Pamg is probably the | :56:49. | :56:53. | |
favourite here as she is Olympic medallist. She won't be top of the | :56:54. | :56:57. | |
leader board. She started her campaign in fine style. Just under | :56:58. | :57:04. | |
70 points. A 69 will put her in fourth place. Joint leaders after | :57:05. | :57:09. | |
round number one, and they represent Canada and Malaysia. Australia then | :57:10. | :57:14. | |
third, that is how it looks on the front of the leaderboard. | :57:15. | :57:22. | |
Tonia Couch not as good as this morning, in joint fifth with | :57:23. | :57:30. | |
Roseline Filion. One more round to come of course. Carol-Ann Ware with | :57:31. | :57:38. | |
the injury problems and strappings. Victoria Vincent and Sarah Barrow in | :57:39. | :57:49. | |
eighth and ninth. Melissa Wu didn't hurt herself, that buzz an accident, | :57:50. | :57:54. | |
if you like, so hands slipping. -- was an accident. Reaching up to the | :57:55. | :57:58. | |
sky instead of the water. She was lucky not to hurt herself. | :57:59. | :58:01. | |
Freaky! Second round of dives. Loh Zhiayi. | :58:02. | :58:21. | |
Loh Zhiayi of Malaysia. And her time now to do the forward | :58:22. | :58:40. | |
three-and-a-half with pike. Good option! Inspired by her team-mates. | :58:41. | :58:50. | |
She is bang on the money on this one. She will get over 70 points, as | :58:51. | :59:05. | |
well. How low can you go? 72 marks. Not bad. The coaches happy enough. | :59:06. | :59:26. | |
Here is Carol-Ann Ware, from Canada. A back two and a half somersaults | :59:27. | :59:35. | |
with pike. A lower degree of difficulty than the ones we have | :59:36. | :59:41. | |
seen so far. Lower degree of difficulty, so it needed to be good. | :59:42. | :59:48. | |
The take-off looks OK. Maybe a bit too far away from the diving board. | :59:49. | :59:55. | |
She was not able to control it as well as she needed to, so she over | :59:56. | :59:56. | |
rotate. -- over rotate. Rachel Bugg of Australia, not the | :59:57. | :00:22. | |
best start for her. Under 50 points. She has had a real mixed bag today. | :00:23. | :00:28. | |
3.2 on this. It was full this morning, and not so | :00:29. | :00:42. | |
much better this afternoon. She is having real challenges with this | :00:43. | :00:48. | |
drive. She runs out of room. She would need an 11-metre platform. She | :00:49. | :00:57. | |
goes into the water in a bit of a heap. | :00:58. | :01:11. | |
Her medal prospects have been dented severely, you would think. Here is | :01:12. | :01:21. | |
Sarah Barrow. She is having a go at a three point two, as well. Ninth | :01:22. | :01:25. | |
after the first round. If she kneels this, she will go | :01:26. | :01:33. | |
leaping up the standings. Much, much better than this morning. | :01:34. | :02:03. | |
Much more confident. She comes out in one smooth movement. A little bit | :02:04. | :02:05. | |
too much is much of a splash. Now, the 13-year-old, the Tory | :02:06. | :02:40. | |
Vincent. 2.9 difficulty. She can't really do the more difficult dives | :02:41. | :02:45. | |
yet. Dad will be driving his tube around London, this evening. | :02:46. | :02:55. | |
Much better! Good work! This morning it went a little bit off. Good | :02:56. | :03:13. | |
powerful jumper. It will get a lot more points than it did this | :03:14. | :03:19. | |
morning. She is a superstar in the making. A lot of similarities with | :03:20. | :03:28. | |
the young Tom Daley in the way she approaches things. Tom Daley was | :03:29. | :03:36. | |
world champion at 15. It is a bit too much to expect Victoria Vincent | :03:37. | :03:41. | |
to be there in two years time, but, nevertheless, she is in first place | :03:42. | :03:48. | |
at the moment. Here comes Lara Tarvit from Australia. This is a 3.2 | :03:49. | :03:51. | |
difficulty dive. Even better than this morning! Very, | :03:52. | :04:11. | |
very powerful. Good entry into the water. We over 70 points. She does | :04:12. | :04:17. | |
have some dives that she is not so good at still to come. That puts her | :04:18. | :04:24. | |
into the lead. Very happy with that, as she should be. Into the | :04:25. | :04:38. | |
lead she goes. Melissa Wu has returned. She sustained a little bit | :04:39. | :04:55. | |
of an injury in her first dive. 3.2 difficulty dive. Just showing the | :04:56. | :05:04. | |
kind of she is. She failed on her first dive completely. It is a good | :05:05. | :05:19. | |
dive. She will be in last place for some time as she tries to claw | :05:20. | :05:24. | |
herself up the leaderboard after failing in her first-round dive. | :05:25. | :05:28. | |
Silver-medallist four years ago. Her lofty ambitions will not be realised | :05:29. | :05:36. | |
this time round. So, this is our current leader, Cheong Jun Hoong of | :05:37. | :05:47. | |
Malaysia. This is a low tariff dive. | :05:48. | :05:59. | |
That is wicked! What a dive! 2.9 degrees of difficulty. That for me | :06:00. | :06:14. | |
is the dive of this meeting so far! That is as good as it gets. What a | :06:15. | :06:24. | |
dive! We have not yet seen a ten from the judge yet, but now we have. | :06:25. | :06:28. | |
Goodness me, has she come to play! Follow that, Meaghan Benefeito! | :06:29. | :06:36. | |
Nine is across the board. Well, the take-off was good, the | :06:37. | :07:14. | |
spin speed was excellent, the entry into the water letting her down. Too | :07:15. | :07:24. | |
much splash. She rolled slightly over. | :07:25. | :07:34. | |
62.40 is the result of that. That will put her in third place. She has | :07:35. | :07:45. | |
a bit of making up to do after her first dive. So, Tonia Couch. | :07:46. | :08:01. | |
Just reaching too far forward as she came out of the dive, Tonia. To | :08:02. | :08:11. | |
average dives by her standard. We have seen that done well by them | :08:12. | :08:22. | |
elation. Not where she needs to be. What a shame for Tonia. A puff of | :08:23. | :08:33. | |
the cheeks. Not what she was hoping for. | :08:34. | :08:39. | |
The leader at the moment is the Malaysians, Cheong Jun Hoong. This | :08:40. | :08:52. | |
is the biggest doubt that we have seen in the competition so far. If | :08:53. | :08:58. | |
she gets this right, she should take the lead. She does get it right! OK, | :08:59. | :09:07. | |
we have a competition! That is one of the best ones I have seen her do | :09:08. | :09:13. | |
in a long, long time. The oldest competitor in this contest at the | :09:14. | :09:17. | |
grand old age of 27! Super experienced. 77 points! | :09:18. | :09:39. | |
She has moved up into second place, behind Cheong Jun Hoong. Here is | :09:40. | :09:47. | |
Malaysia's number one diver. Not quite as good as her team-mates, | :09:48. | :10:16. | |
but nearly. That is a ripper. Good entry into the water. It sounds like | :10:17. | :10:27. | |
the water is being torn apart. That will give her a seismic leap up the | :10:28. | :10:35. | |
table. Not in the top three yet, but right on the margins of being there. | :10:36. | :10:41. | |
She rarely gives too much away, good, bad or indifferent in terms of | :10:42. | :10:48. | |
diving. A litre nobody was expecting at this stage, Cheong Jun Hoong of | :10:49. | :10:50. | |
Malaysia. The English are all grouped together | :10:51. | :11:02. | |
at the moment. Two down, three to go. Five rounds | :11:03. | :11:21. | |
in the women's competition, six in the men's. All to play for. The top | :11:22. | :11:27. | |
four are separated by about 11 points. The top five are separated | :11:28. | :11:36. | |
by 16 points. No way of saying yet which way the medals are heading. A | :11:37. | :11:43. | |
really explosive start by Cheong Jun Hoong. This is another of her | :11:44. | :11:47. | |
Malaysian team-mates, Loh Zhiayi. Much better! The coach is shouting | :11:48. | :12:04. | |
and screaming. Just before this contest started she went absolutely | :12:05. | :12:21. | |
flat. In practice, she needed the coach dish out to her to tell her | :12:22. | :12:28. | |
when to come out of the somersault. Cultures are never happy! -- coaches | :12:29. | :12:40. | |
are never happy! She had a problem with her bicep | :12:41. | :13:02. | |
injury this morning. Let's see if she can get the handstand right. | :13:03. | :13:07. | |
That is better, a little bit wobbly. Good job. Well done! She came on | :13:08. | :13:22. | |
from her performance this morning. That is a big dive. Very easy to | :13:23. | :13:29. | |
make mistakes on that. She will get over 70 points on this. She has. | :13:30. | :13:41. | |
74.25. Some people have been asking why the divers bring a towel with | :13:42. | :13:49. | |
them. It isn't a towel, it is a chamois. They can get cold. They | :13:50. | :13:59. | |
just want to take of any water that is on their hands, to increase the | :14:00. | :14:05. | |
friction. You don't want to slip. A slight delay, not sure why. Here is | :14:06. | :14:17. | |
Rachel Bugg. There are a couple of variations on this that you will see | :14:18. | :14:22. | |
over the course of the event. Not quite sure what happened on the | :14:23. | :14:28. | |
take-off. She overcook it slightly. She went quite far over vertical. | :14:29. | :14:36. | |
She attacked the dive too much. Too much rotation. She had no way of | :14:37. | :14:41. | |
stopping the dive. Over and over she goes. | :14:42. | :15:03. | |
Sarah Barrow is in seventh place. Not too far shy of the movers and | :15:04. | :15:18. | |
shakers. This is worth 3.0 in terms of difficulty. The take-off was | :15:19. | :15:26. | |
good, squeezing into the pike shape, ran out of room a bit as she entered | :15:27. | :15:33. | |
the water. Needed a bit more of a drop to get that rip entry. Didn't | :15:34. | :15:37. | |
have enough time to grab her hands. That is where they punch a hole in | :15:38. | :15:45. | |
the water. Andy Banks giving her the feedback as she walks over. | :15:46. | :15:55. | |
the water. Andy Banks giving her the score of 57 for Sarah. The lady born | :15:56. | :16:01. | |
on the 3rd of April 2001 in Croydon, Victoria Vincent and she is the | :16:02. | :16:07. | |
national champion on the ten meter board. | :16:08. | :16:17. | |
Another good entry. 2.9 degrees of difficulty. She doesn't have enough | :16:18. | :16:30. | |
firepower as the rest of the girls in the final. She is only 13. That | :16:31. | :16:36. | |
is a good dive. She has a good look, a slight over rotation. Low | :16:37. | :16:50. | |
degree of difficulty hence 53. It does put her above of Sarah Burrow. | :16:51. | :16:59. | |
The top English diver currently but still Tonia Couch to go. Lara Tarvit | :17:00. | :17:08. | |
for Australia, again, another 2.9 coming up. Back two and a half | :17:09. | :17:18. | |
somersaults. She was eighth in the recent World Cup meeting in | :17:19. | :17:19. | |
Shanghai. She made a real mess of that in the | :17:20. | :17:31. | |
preliminaries at that is much better. It must be a dive she has | :17:32. | :17:35. | |
struggled with. She had really better. It must be a dive she has | :17:36. | :17:45. | |
scores in the preliminaries but that is markedly better. 55 points. The | :17:46. | :17:58. | |
judges being very tight on that. But she does just edge into the lead | :17:59. | :18:03. | |
judges being very tight on that. But with six more divers to | :18:04. | :18:05. | |
judges being very tight on that. But halfway and the big names to come. | :18:06. | :18:09. | |
We were expecting this lady to be one of the big names but she failed | :18:10. | :18:17. | |
her opening dive. This is hurt inward three and a half somersaults | :18:18. | :18:24. | |
with tuck. -- her inward. That is more like it, starting to find a bit | :18:25. | :18:28. | |
more of the form she has more like it, starting to find a bit | :18:29. | :18:33. | |
Injuries starting to play a part now. She is way out of the | :18:34. | :18:37. | |
competition due to failing her first dive which is such a shame. That was | :18:38. | :18:47. | |
a very good dive. Great tight tuck shape, that is the opposite of the | :18:48. | :18:49. | |
deckchair! Here is the star performer so far, | :18:50. | :19:07. | |
she has been absolutely exemplary in the first two rounds. 3.2 degrees of | :19:08. | :19:17. | |
difficulty. Can she make it three in a row and hold on to the lead? That | :19:18. | :19:27. | |
could prove to be decisive. What a shame. She did all the hard work and | :19:28. | :19:35. | |
exits a bit too soon. Beautiful pike out, just to early. That is gutting | :19:36. | :19:42. | |
for her after that amazing second round. She got a ten but none this | :19:43. | :19:55. | |
time. Half of that, I'm afraid. Not a great total, 48. Although she has | :19:56. | :20:01. | |
taken the lead for now, I fear it will be short lived. She might find | :20:02. | :20:07. | |
herself going from first down to fourth or fifth. Meaghan Benfeito. A | :20:08. | :20:18. | |
big tariff dive she would launch her into the stratosphere if she can get | :20:19. | :20:25. | |
it right. And she has! Into the stratosphere she goes! What they | :20:26. | :20:35. | |
dive. Fabulous. This is bang on the money. Will we see 80 points? That | :20:36. | :20:43. | |
will not be far away. Let's see. Yes. Indeed, 80.85. A good | :20:44. | :20:53. | |
performance and good enough to put her in first position. We have not | :20:54. | :21:01. | |
seen the best of Tonia Couch as yet. This would be a good time for her to | :21:02. | :21:11. | |
change all that around. That is better from Tonya. Much better. -- | :21:12. | :21:23. | |
Tonia. We are only Round 3 of five. That will be 7.5s. Will she still be | :21:24. | :21:39. | |
buying? -- behind. She is in fifth place. Much better than the opening | :21:40. | :21:45. | |
two rounds but not good enough yet to be in medal contention. She is 28 | :21:46. | :21:55. | |
points hind the leader and nine points behind silver. But that can | :21:56. | :22:02. | |
change because they're rather two big performers to come -- there | :22:03. | :22:15. | |
are. It is good, it is solid, it is unwavering. Is it excellent? No. The | :22:16. | :22:29. | |
judges will not see the replay so she might get away with that. | :22:30. | :22:36. | |
7.5 across the board. That takes her behind her team-mate Meaghan | :22:37. | :22:50. | |
Benfeito. She is a class act, we have seen her win the World Series | :22:51. | :22:56. | |
event in Edinburgh here this year -- last year. She knows all about this | :22:57. | :23:11. | |
venue. Pandelela Pamg of Malaysia. To take her into the lead, she needs | :23:12. | :23:22. | |
76. Yes, I think that will be good enough. So far we are on for a | :23:23. | :23:33. | |
Malaysian double. Pandelela, Olympic medallist, such a classy diver, she | :23:34. | :23:37. | |
will be just about in the lead. Three rounds down, two to go and she | :23:38. | :23:49. | |
is top but only just. It is tighter than Leon's wallet right now! 8.0 | :23:50. | :23:53. | |
across the board. The English are seven, nine and ten | :23:54. | :24:14. | |
as things stand. An stand back double somersault one | :24:15. | :24:32. | |
and a half twists to start off the penultimate round for Loh Zhiayi of | :24:33. | :24:38. | |
Malaysia. She is not really in contention for a medal, just looking | :24:39. | :24:40. | |
to finish as best she can. Not steady balance but she got it | :24:41. | :25:07. | |
OK. A little bit of wobbling. Hiding her feet, a bit more consistency, | :25:08. | :25:12. | |
she is doing better than she did in the preliminaries which is good to | :25:13. | :25:13. | |
see. Sixes for the Malaysian diver. Caroline where -- Carol-Ann Ware, 20 | :25:14. | :25:34. | |
points behind bronze medal at the moment which is just about makeable | :25:35. | :25:43. | |
if others falter. Is a forward three and a half. Just a bit too far away | :25:44. | :25:51. | |
from the board, a bit too much forward momentum. Probably a shorter | :25:52. | :25:58. | |
swim to the other side of the pool. That causes the dive to go over. You | :25:59. | :26:03. | |
can see how far she is moving That causes the dive to go over. You | :26:04. | :26:11. | |
from the diving board. More of a challenge to control. She will | :26:12. | :26:19. | |
collect 54 for that. She moves off to have a chat with her coach as we | :26:20. | :26:25. | |
watch Rachel Bugg who is in 12th place. This is her biggest dive, | :26:26. | :26:37. | |
watch Rachel Bugg who is in 12th degree of difficulty. Back three and | :26:38. | :26:37. | |
a half somersaults It is OK, better than in the | :26:38. | :26:52. | |
preliminaries. It is huge, really needed to be innate tighter tuck | :26:53. | :27:01. | |
shape, that is a bit of a deckchair. -- needed to be in a tighter tuck | :27:02. | :27:06. | |
shape. We do have a summer job for Leon | :27:07. | :27:24. | |
knows his deckchairs. Onto Sarah Barrow. Much lower than she would | :27:25. | :27:31. | |
like to be at the moment. That is more like it from Sarah, | :27:32. | :27:46. | |
just didn't quite get her entry right. A little bit of opening | :27:47. | :27:53. | |
through her chest as she goes into the water. It is good but not as | :27:54. | :28:02. | |
good as I have seen from her. She will stay about where she is. Third | :28:03. | :28:10. | |
right now, early stages of this penultimate round. Probably not a | :28:11. | :28:22. | |
great deal of progress. Victoria Vincent is having a fantastic | :28:23. | :28:28. | |
Commonwealth Games debut here. 13 years of age. She won an appeal to | :28:29. | :28:32. | |
compete here, they were not going to allow her to because she was too | :28:33. | :28:37. | |
young. She cannot do the world, she cannot do Europeans but she is the | :28:38. | :28:39. | |
national champion. phenomenal in the preliminaries. She | :28:40. | :29:05. | |
just over rotated. phenomenal in the preliminaries. She | :29:06. | :29:19. | |
that she emerges with. Now, Lara Tarvit. | :29:20. | :29:33. | |
The arms stand is much easier to do indoors and out doors, no wind. | :29:34. | :29:41. | |
Currently in fifth place. An interesting technique. She almost | :29:42. | :29:56. | |
false away from the diving board. She is on fire. She has managed to | :29:57. | :30:09. | |
figure that out, somehow. 65 points. She is very much in | :30:10. | :30:13. | |
contention, just outside the medals, I would say. Melissa Wu has done | :30:14. | :30:30. | |
very well to move off the bottom. Up to 11 now. | :30:31. | :30:39. | |
No, she just finished that died a bit short of vertical. The water hit | :30:40. | :30:53. | |
her on the shoulders. 52.8. Just one of those days at the | :30:54. | :31:16. | |
office that occasionally happens in sport. | :31:17. | :31:33. | |
I'm not quite sure where she goes down in difficulty. She has decided | :31:34. | :31:44. | |
to use the reverse dive because the reverse that she was working on just | :31:45. | :31:47. | |
is not working reverse that she was working on just | :31:48. | :31:56. | |
minute. She has decided that if she absolutely nails this, gets 50 | :31:57. | :32:05. | |
points, it will do her OK. I came of tactic. It is working well for her. | :32:06. | :32:20. | |
Meaghan Benefeito, in second place. The charge could be on here. | :32:21. | :32:33. | |
This is a slightly different arm stand. 3.3 difficulty dive. | :32:34. | :32:46. | |
She once the gold! She definitely want the gold! That puts the | :32:47. | :32:54. | |
pressure on Pandelela Rinong Pamg, our current leader. This could prove | :32:55. | :33:10. | |
to be critical. The pressure is on! 79.20. She will be thrilled by that. | :33:11. | :33:28. | |
Here is Tonia Couch. Ranks seventh. She was first in the first four | :33:29. | :33:37. | |
rounds this morning, then fell away to third. Not in that kind of form | :33:38. | :33:49. | |
tonight so far. That is Tonia's best dive of the final so far. She | :33:50. | :34:01. | |
squares up nicely. Rolling into the water a little bit. It will look her | :34:02. | :34:11. | |
up into fifth place. A sizeable leap. She is only just behind Lara | :34:12. | :34:24. | |
Tarvit by 0.5. Her last five is quite low tariff, however. Here is | :34:25. | :34:36. | |
fitted to macro. This is the slightly more complicated version of | :34:37. | :34:40. | |
the dive that we saw earlier. That will not be good enough for the | :34:41. | :34:57. | |
lead, but good enough to keep her in That will not be good enough for the | :34:58. | :35:06. | |
podium contention. We have two Canadians in the top three. That is | :35:07. | :35:22. | |
good. The pressure is on. She has joined the potential gold rush here. | :35:23. | :35:28. | |
Only eight points behind Meaghan Benefeito. The pressure now switches | :35:29. | :35:37. | |
to the Malaysians. This is the number-1 relation. This will put | :35:38. | :35:47. | |
back in the outright lead. Pandelela Rinong Pamg will go for a 3.2 | :35:48. | :35:49. | |
difficulty dive. 77 marks for pitcher in the lead. | :35:50. | :36:06. | |
What a dive from the Olympic medallist from Malaysia. She does | :36:07. | :36:10. | |
not want the Canadians do have at their own way. She confirms her | :36:11. | :36:16. | |
place at the top of the leaderboard, only by a small margin. Pandelela | :36:17. | :36:24. | |
Rinong Pamg is rocking it! She won this competition at the World Series | :36:25. | :36:28. | |
event in Edinburgh last year. She likes this board! She goes back into | :36:29. | :36:36. | |
the lead. It is mighty, mighty tide between one, two and three. -- | :36:37. | :36:44. | |
tight. So, Tonia Couch is having a battle | :36:45. | :37:16. | |
with Lara Tarvit, only 0.5 between them. This is a very keenly fought | :37:17. | :37:24. | |
contest between the Malaysians and the two Canadians. Sadly for Loh | :37:25. | :37:34. | |
Zhiayi, she is not in contention for a gold. She will want to finish it | :37:35. | :37:37. | |
off as best she can. Great finish by the young | :37:38. | :37:54. | |
16-year-old. A beautiful dive to finish on. This morning she was here | :37:55. | :38:02. | |
and there are, but this evening she has found her form. Very good. She | :38:03. | :38:09. | |
will be much happier with their evening performance than her morning | :38:10. | :38:10. | |
one. That is a good dive. We will see a | :38:11. | :38:46. | |
few of these in the final round. It is a big degree of difficulty at | :38:47. | :38:53. | |
3.2. Just finishing up a little bit short of vertical. Eight out of the | :38:54. | :39:05. | |
remaining ten divers will be doing that dive. | :39:06. | :39:19. | |
Rachel Bugg would like not to be at the bottom of the pile, but she is | :39:20. | :39:30. | |
there at the moment. Her hand Melissa Wu are separated by a very | :39:31. | :39:34. | |
small amount. That is her best dive to finish. She has been a little bit | :39:35. | :39:48. | |
inconsistent. Going in the water with her legs apart there. Losing | :39:49. | :39:52. | |
control. Sarah Barrow, it hasn't quite worked | :39:53. | :40:10. | |
out the way Sarah Barrow, it hasn't quite worked | :40:11. | :40:17. | |
to tonight. Not quite on top form. She and Tonia as a single pair are | :40:18. | :40:25. | |
very impressive. Not quite She and Tonia as a single pair are | :40:26. | :40:29. | |
what she is capable of Nice! Really nice! Well done, Sarah. | :40:30. | :40:54. | |
She has not been on her greatest form during this final. She has | :40:55. | :41:02. | |
finished with a flourish. Beautiful dive. Well done, Sarah. | :41:03. | :41:27. | |
Well, we will see a lot more of this young lady. The teen years of age. | :41:28. | :41:41. | |
When we get to the Gold Coast in 2008 team, she will be in the full | :41:42. | :41:51. | |
flush of a teenage years. Remember that face, you will be seeing a lot | :41:52. | :41:57. | |
more of it in years to come. Yes! Fantastic final dive by Vicky. A | :41:58. | :42:04. | |
little bit too much forward momentum, but she manages to counter | :42:05. | :42:09. | |
it very cleverly by coming out, reaching forward and ripping the | :42:10. | :42:17. | |
entry. Will she break 300? She will be close. Not quite. What a shame. | :42:18. | :42:36. | |
She only went on the ten metre board for a first-time year ago! That is | :42:37. | :42:44. | |
how far she has come. Lara Tarvit will still have outside thoughts of | :42:45. | :42:53. | |
a medal here. This is her last dive. And a good dive it is, too! What a | :42:54. | :43:00. | |
beautiful entry into the water. That puts pressure on the remaining girls | :43:01. | :43:09. | |
still to go. She has put together a great list. She stepped up from the | :43:10. | :43:21. | |
preliminaries this morning. That is the strongest Australian performance | :43:22. | :43:26. | |
by a long shot today. 341.6 is the leading scorer. The top three are | :43:27. | :43:35. | |
still to go. Melissa Wu, she will not finish in bottom place, which is | :43:36. | :43:41. | |
great. She only completed four out of the five dives today. OK from | :43:42. | :43:50. | |
Melissa Wu. I take my headphones after her for completing the | :43:51. | :43:55. | |
competition. A disastrous start, only did three somersaults instead | :43:56. | :44:01. | |
of the three and a half, she was lucky not to really hurt herself. | :44:02. | :44:12. | |
She was a silver-medallist four years ago, not to be this time | :44:13. | :44:18. | |
around. She will probably finish in 11th place. | :44:19. | :44:34. | |
our early leader, it looked like she might bring a big surprise. But she | :44:35. | :44:42. | |
has been going backwards since. But that is another corker to finish. | :44:43. | :44:49. | |
What a shame she made a mistake on her third round dive. This is a | :44:50. | :44:55. | |
beauty! This could be 80 points. This is the best of the bunch so | :44:56. | :45:07. | |
far. Wow. A real case of if only for her. After that amazing start, we | :45:08. | :45:15. | |
thought she would be in the shake-up but she will probably be fifth, | :45:16. | :45:23. | |
maybe better. Meaghan Benfeito. You need to set a target for Pandelela | :45:24. | :45:32. | |
Pamg and Roseline Filion to come. This has to be on the money. We have | :45:33. | :45:40. | |
seen this several times and we will see another two times after this. | :45:41. | :45:48. | |
She has thrown down the gauntlet. That is what and a leather certainly | :45:49. | :45:53. | |
needs to match in order to become Commonwealth champion. | :45:54. | :45:55. | |
That is what and a leather certainly needs to match in order to -- | :45:56. | :46:00. | |
Pandelela. I think she will be guaranteed silver, will that be good | :46:01. | :46:05. | |
enough for gold or am I talking too soon and her team-mate will come out | :46:06. | :46:13. | |
and surprise us all? It could be. 75.20, it will be hard to overtake | :46:14. | :46:20. | |
for those behind her. It looks like at least a bronze for Meaghan | :46:21. | :46:27. | |
Benfeito. Tonia Couch finishes on her lowest tariff dive. Let's see | :46:28. | :46:35. | |
how close she can get to perfection on this. | :46:36. | :46:43. | |
There you go, superb final dive. Too much to do, that was missing this | :46:44. | :46:49. | |
morning in the preliminaries but here it is in the final, giving you | :46:50. | :46:55. | |
a flavour of what she is capable of. Just a little bit of splash | :46:56. | :47:03. | |
thrown up. I have seen her score nines and above on this. She will be | :47:04. | :47:10. | |
outside of the medals. She got a silver medal yesterday in the | :47:11. | :47:15. | |
synchro event. I think she told you everything you need to know about | :47:16. | :47:17. | |
today. synchro event. I think she told you | :47:18. | :47:21. | |
everything you need to know Tonight not quite so good. But a creditable | :47:22. | :47:27. | |
finish and a good position for Tonia Couch but not a medal was Ishant. We | :47:28. | :47:33. | |
are down to the sharp end of the ten metres platform for women. Both of | :47:34. | :47:39. | |
the last two divers will do the same last dive. It is good, but I do not | :47:40. | :47:49. | |
think it is good enough to leapfrog her team-mate. That will be good | :47:50. | :47:55. | |
enough for bronze. Roseline Filion, bronze medallist here. One and a | :47:56. | :48:05. | |
half twists. It is good, very good in fact. And good enough for a | :48:06. | :48:15. | |
medal, bronze I believe. Two medals to Canada, we can guarantee that. | :48:16. | :48:20. | |
Meaghan Benfeito in gold at the moment, Roseline Filion in silver at | :48:21. | :48:26. | |
the moment. Only one person can spoil the party and she is coming | :48:27. | :48:37. | |
next. 71.3 or better and Pandelela Pamg picks up her second gold. She | :48:38. | :48:39. | |
won it Pamg picks up her second gold. She | :48:40. | :48:44. | |
year. Can she do it at the Commonwealth Games? Oh! | :48:45. | :48:52. | |
year. Can she do it at the sure! That is a good dive but the | :48:53. | :48:58. | |
entry was throwing up a bit of splash. She needs 7.5 average to get | :48:59. | :49:06. | |
the gold. Will she split the Canadians? I think it might only be | :49:07. | :49:13. | |
silver. It could be the first gold for Canada and it is! Pandelela Pamg | :49:14. | :49:20. | |
could not quite get the dive she wanted. She fell shy by just over | :49:21. | :49:24. | |
four points. It is gold for Canada, and bronze | :49:25. | :49:39. | |
for Canada. In between them comes Pandelela Pamg. She just could not | :49:40. | :49:48. | |
quite get the 7.5 she needed. Canada can rejoice. We will not hear the | :49:49. | :49:56. | |
Malaysian anthem for the second time after victory in the three metre | :49:57. | :50:05. | |
earlier. They are delighted. Surprised and delighted and elated | :50:06. | :50:08. | |
Canadians. No medals for the girls but we did | :50:09. | :50:27. | |
have a silver and a bronze, silver for Jack Laugher, bronze for Oliver | :50:28. | :50:32. | |
Dingley who was brilliant when we spoke to him afterwards, he said | :50:33. | :50:36. | |
British diving was on fire. Got those gold medals last night. Jack | :50:37. | :50:43. | |
was gutted he did not get the gold medal tonight but two days into the | :50:44. | :50:47. | |
competition and he has two medals. Congratulations to him. A quick word | :50:48. | :50:53. | |
with Tonia Couch, you finished fifth and you finished strong. Yeah, | :50:54. | :50:56. | |
with Tonia Couch, you finished fifth bit gutted, I missed one dive. But I | :50:57. | :51:06. | |
with Tonia Couch, you finished fifth now, one medal in the bag, what will | :51:07. | :51:11. | |
with Tonia Couch, you finished fifth suppose I am disappointed with today | :51:12. | :51:13. | |
with Tonia Couch, you finished fifth but I will walk away with my | :51:14. | :51:13. | |
with Tonia Couch, you finished fifth held high, I am pleased to have got | :51:14. | :51:16. | |
a medal with Sarah at yesterday held high, I am pleased to have got | :51:17. | :51:26. | |
England, will you be down the side of the pool for the rest Westermark | :51:27. | :51:33. | |
of course, I am the loudmouth! I am sure we will see a few more gold | :51:34. | :51:39. | |
medals. Congratulations. It is awful that we started so well and we are | :51:40. | :51:45. | |
saying just one medal but congratulations to team England so | :51:46. | :51:49. | |
Welcome come. | :51:50. | :51:55. | |
Welcome River Clyde. We are just underneath | :51:56. | :51:59. | |
the studio. We cannot put off Gary Lineker from here! Thank you for all | :52:00. | :52:06. | |
that you have been sending in on social media. Lots of teams and | :52:07. | :52:13. | |
athletes are on social media and we have picked up a few bits they have | :52:14. | :52:17. | |
been sending out. Canadian athlete Chris Wilson tweeted this picture | :52:18. | :52:24. | |
writing, how all the athletes relax and kill time. Video games. | :52:25. | :52:32. | |
Athletics Canada tweeted their head coach getting his nails painted if | :52:33. | :52:38. | |
they won five gold medals. He looks particularly happy! Apparently five | :52:39. | :52:42. | |
more and he has to wear a kilt. English gymnast Nile Wilson tweeted | :52:43. | :52:50. | |
this, this was his dad's reaction to Commonwealth bronze, a yellow card | :52:51. | :52:55. | |
for taking off his shirt! It could be a straight red, no need for that | :52:56. | :53:00. | |
on the BBC! We will do some snack news later. Have you been nibbling | :53:01. | :53:09. | |
anything tonight? No? You have 20 minutes to sort it out. You can send | :53:10. | :53:14. | |
yours in. We normally do it at about 9:15pm. Time for some more sport and | :53:15. | :53:22. | |
table tennis now, men's singles. Liam Pitchford is the current | :53:23. | :53:26. | |
English national champion and he is the highest ranked Englishman for | :53:27. | :53:31. | |
about 30 years is Matthew sired who now writes books and newspaper | :53:32. | :53:38. | |
articles. This is his match with Paul McCreery from Northern Ireland. | :53:39. | :53:44. | |
Liam Pitchford is three games up and we are going into the fourth. | :53:45. | :54:42. | |
Fortune favouring McCreery again, the ball hitting the top of the net. | :54:43. | :55:06. | |
A good return with McCreery controlling the return that had a | :55:07. | :55:15. | |
lot of movement on it. The back and again, what a weapon it | :55:16. | :55:39. | |
is for Pitchford -- backhand. Good placement on that occasion from | :55:40. | :55:59. | |
McCreery. Power play from Pitchford, he | :56:00. | :56:06. | |
extends his lead to 7-5. Aggressive play from McCreery. When | :56:07. | :56:29. | |
he gets a chance, he has to go after it. | :56:30. | :56:42. | |
A sigh of relief from McCreery. And some quick footwork in that rally | :56:43. | :57:15. | |
from Pitchford to stay in it. Three match points for Liam | :57:16. | :57:34. | |
Pitchford. There it is. This second round match going the way of Liam | :57:35. | :57:39. | |
Pitchford. He takes the fourth Game 11-7 and the match 4-0. | :57:40. | :57:47. | |
Plenty more sport to come, after the news we will have our boxing chat. | :57:48. | :57:55. | |
Richie Woodhall and Ron McIntosh are there. Michelle is getting Gary | :57:56. | :58:02. | |
Lineker a cup of tea! And if you look down here, these little silver | :58:03. | :58:06. | |
trays, that is Hazel Irvine's lunch! She has gone already, once we | :58:07. | :58:13. | |
have finished tonight, we will be sharing that! Very nice. But that is | :58:14. | :58:23. | |
a meal, not a snack, it doesn't count. Our cameraman is shaking his | :58:24. | :58:32. | |
head. It needs to be smaller to qualify for snack news. It is time | :58:33. | :58:33. | |
for the news. Yeah, I am looking for | :58:34. | :58:41. | |
a Prince Charming. I don't think I'm ugly, but I don't | :58:42. | :58:43. | |
think I'm, like, really pretty. I say, "You've got something | :58:44. | :58:47. | |
on your bum." "Really?" And I say, Hi I'm Sam, back to Glasgow | :58:48. | :58:52. | |

some boxing. We are actually on a break day for the boxing today, so | :01:15. | :01:18. | |
we will have a discussion with her commentators in a moment and we will | :01:19. | :01:21. | |
speak to some of the England team as well. Before we get to that, let | :01:22. | :01:30. | |
sure you what else is happening tonight. There is plenty of it. | :01:31. | :01:38. | |
Another huge night of athletics. Eilidh Child was running tonight, | :01:39. | :01:42. | |
David Rudisha only managed a silver medal tonight! Over on the red | :01:43. | :01:56. | |

speaking to them later. Let's have a listen. | :02:44. | :02:52. | |
Grunge pop to come! We mentioned it was a day off in the boxing, so they | :02:53. | :03:01. | |
are not fighting today. They return on Friday. All the final step place | :03:02. | :03:11. | |
on Saturday. The final day of gymnastics tomorrow, then they will | :03:12. | :03:18. | |
get the Hydro ready for the boxing on Saturday. We went to meet Team | :03:19. | :03:27. | |
England. The boxing ring has provided quite a bit of success for | :03:28. | :03:33. | |
the home nations. This is Team England. All seven of this lot are | :03:34. | :03:39. | |
guaranteed at least a bronze. Joe Joyce, Savannah Marshall, Qais | :03:40. | :03:46. | |
Ashfaq. Let's start down here with Sam. You will meet Josh Taylor, as | :03:47. | :03:55. | |
Scott. It would be a great atmosphere. I knew I would have to | :03:56. | :04:01. | |
fight Josh and I was going to win a medal. Anthony, you are the highest | :04:02. | :04:06. | |
ranked Commonwealth boxer at these games. Everybody keeps asking you | :04:07. | :04:10. | |
about turning professional and has been doing it for years. I am just | :04:11. | :04:21. | |
focusing on the job in hand. What about the glasses on the head? I am | :04:22. | :04:28. | |
a fashion icon, what can I say? You wear them well. Boxing is very much | :04:29. | :04:33. | |
an individual sport, but what is the team ethic like? It is fantastic. We | :04:34. | :04:46. | |
have a bit of a laugh. We all have a good laugh. Good team spirit. That's | :04:47. | :04:53. | |
what wins medals. Have a look at this level dive. We saw the famous | :04:54. | :04:59. | |
blue ice bag on that a few days ago. How is that? It will be fine. I did | :05:00. | :05:05. | |
it on the fights on Monday and the fight yesterday, it wasn't too bad. | :05:06. | :05:17. | |
I am not worried about it. You are all guaranteed a bronze, but I | :05:18. | :05:20. | |
imagine you don't want to leave Alaska with that. We have all come | :05:21. | :05:25. | |
for gold and that is what we are still going for. We want to | :05:26. | :05:30. | |
guarantee at least the silver, then go for the gold. Time to meet Mr | :05:31. | :05:41. | |
Joyce, the big boy of 13. Six foot six. Take a seat, you are | :05:42. | :05:47. | |
intimidating me. You have a degree in fine art. People must ask you how | :05:48. | :05:52. | |
you square up the fact you are a recipe heavyweight Gillette painting | :05:53. | :06:03. | |
on the side. Working on the canvas, doing my degree, and I am back on | :06:04. | :06:08. | |
the canvas! Usain Bolt Kim passed a few minutes ago. Six of the seven | :06:09. | :06:17. | |
ran out. The only one who stayed him here because she wasn't bothered was | :06:18. | :06:21. | |
Savannah Marshall! You are just here to win a medal. I would rather have | :06:22. | :06:30. | |
a medal than a photograph of him. Qais, you are getting some grief | :06:31. | :06:36. | |
about your hair! You have got to look good, haven't you? More care to | :06:37. | :06:42. | |
your opponent or the hair? Definitely think about my opponent | :06:43. | :06:47. | |
more. Lots of talk about you and Amir Khan. You said he inspired you. | :06:48. | :06:52. | |
I have lived up to him since I was a kid. He is a good mate of mine. I | :06:53. | :06:58. | |
would love to be able to inspire people like he inspired me. That | :06:59. | :07:03. | |
would be great. Bring back as many silvers and golds as you can. Some | :07:04. | :07:07. | |
serious medal opportunities over the next few days. | :07:08. | :07:11. | |
Let's introduce you to two of the men who will be commentating on the | :07:12. | :07:18. | |
boxing. Big Ron McIntosh, the tallest man on television, 11 foot | :07:19. | :07:25. | |
eight! And Richie Woodhall. Great to hear about them talking about the | :07:26. | :07:34. | |
ethos of Team England. She breezed through her first few fights, Nicola | :07:35. | :07:40. | |
Adams. Is she kneeled on the gold? You can never say never. You could | :07:41. | :07:45. | |
just get a cut. On paper she is odds-on favourite. She is a class | :07:46. | :07:50. | |
act. If you watch the way she boxes, her rhythm and timing, her speed and | :07:51. | :07:56. | |
general skill, it is far above what is on offer | :07:57. | :07:59. | |
general skill, it is far above what the point now that we no longer talk | :08:00. | :08:03. | |
to her about women's boxing, just about what she delivers in the ring. | :08:04. | :08:10. | |
Absolutely. They are just boxers. It has been like that for a long time | :08:11. | :08:14. | |
in the sport, but the wider perception has not been like that. | :08:15. | :08:20. | |
She is a performer. The general public don't get to see her dad of, | :08:21. | :08:24. | |
so she is back on nationwide, worldwide television. She just grows | :08:25. | :08:30. | |
and embraces this kind of atmosphere. It really inspires the | :08:31. | :08:36. | |
better performances. She loves the Spotlight and she revelled in it and | :08:37. | :08:40. | |
reduces brilliant displays. Interesting to hear Anthony Fowler | :08:41. | :08:44. | |
and Joe Joyce, ask the questions about going professional. Both of | :08:45. | :08:52. | |
them are saying, listen, I am here to win a Commonwealth gold and the | :08:53. | :08:55. | |
next step, whatever that might be, will take care of itself. That is | :08:56. | :09:00. | |
the right attitude. Just concentrate on winning the medal. Forget about | :09:01. | :09:04. | |
the professional game for the next two years. Wait until after the | :09:05. | :09:11. | |
Olympic Games. When the gold medal in Brazil, then think about turning | :09:12. | :09:15. | |
professional. I think they have the right attitude. It is about wearing | :09:16. | :09:18. | |
invisible blinkers and just concentrating on the gold medal. One | :09:19. | :09:23. | |
thing we talk about in these sort of tournaments is the fact that | :09:24. | :09:26. | |
occasionally you get a gold medal fight a little earlier in the | :09:27. | :09:30. | |
competition. That seems to be the case with Sam Maxwell and Josh | :09:31. | :09:35. | |
Taylor. Two high-quality operators. Joshua Taylor uses the atmosphere in | :09:36. | :09:42. | |
the SECC brilliantly. He is a fantastic operator. A hugely | :09:43. | :09:51. | |
impressive boxer. Sam Maxwell just missed out on the Olympics. His | :09:52. | :10:00. | |
learning curve has been fantastic. It will be an incredible atmosphere | :10:01. | :10:03. | |
in the home nation of Josh Taylor. Sam Maxwell is full of confidence. | :10:04. | :10:08. | |
They knew each other, they train with each other, everyday nearly. It | :10:09. | :10:18. | |
will be... Do could describe it as a match of physical chess and whoever | :10:19. | :10:21. | |
makes the wrong move will get punished. They know each other | :10:22. | :10:22. | |
Inside Out. We will not be dominated by England, | :10:23. | :10:37. | |
but we started with anger because we talk to their boxers today. There | :10:38. | :10:43. | |
are nine metals guaranteed for Northern Ireland! An incredibly | :10:44. | :10:46. | |
strong squad. Where has this strength in depth come from? It is | :10:47. | :10:54. | |
the fact it is a really big sport in Northern Ireland, in Ireland in | :10:55. | :11:00. | |
general. You have Katie Taylor, for example. They have role models, huge | :11:01. | :11:08. | |
participation base, then you augment that was all the things you just | :11:09. | :11:11. | |
said, funding, coaching, excellence. To get nine guaranteed | :11:12. | :11:18. | |
medallist... They only won two in the rest of the entire games! The | :11:19. | :11:28. | |
boxing scribes incredibly strong. We were talking beforehand about how it | :11:29. | :11:31. | |
has even come on in the last few years across the home nations. We | :11:32. | :11:34. | |
can show you the medal table from Delhi. It could be double that | :11:35. | :11:46. | |
almost! I think the Northern Irish lads have it right. Their attack | :11:47. | :11:50. | |
except been really good. You have to have that natural heart and desire | :11:51. | :11:55. | |
to boxing to win. They seem to have that natural instinct. They are well | :11:56. | :12:02. | |
equipped. Their tactics are spot on. They are boxing well to instruction. | :12:03. | :12:04. | |
When you are boxing somebody short, you won't see a Northern Irish | :12:05. | :12:11. | |
fighter tried to bring him in, he will keep him away, make a move. | :12:12. | :12:19. | |
Lots of questions for you on Twitter. Lots of questions about the | :12:20. | :12:23. | |
head guards. Scott Fitzgerald has a nasty cut over his eyes. Should he | :12:24. | :12:28. | |
be in the ring with a cup like that? Ten or 15 years ago he would not be | :12:29. | :12:34. | |
allowed to continue in the tournament. These days is a totally | :12:35. | :12:40. | |
different. The doctors are allowing these things. I don't think it is a | :12:41. | :12:41. | |
good image for amateur boxing. Three these things. I don't think it is a | :12:42. | :12:46. | |
rounds, with a vest on, it these things. I don't think it is a | :12:47. | :12:54. | |
Olympic oxen! I think it will take the boxers a long time to get used | :12:55. | :12:57. | |
to boxing and not clashing heads. the boxers a long time to get used | :12:58. | :13:08. | |
wouldn't happen. Their the boxers a long time to get used | :13:09. | :13:14. | |
are changing. They are trying to make | :13:15. | :13:17. | |
are changing. They are trying to boxing, but in my | :13:18. | :13:35. | |
boxing. As Ritchie said, this is being | :13:36. | :13:41. | |
boxing. As Ritchie said, this is authority within the sport. Is it | :13:42. | :13:43. | |
going anywhere soon? The boxers will need to adjust their style. These | :13:44. | :13:50. | |
guys are competing five times in ten days are six times in 12 days in | :13:51. | :13:55. | |
world Championships. To have their heads not come together and | :13:56. | :13:58. | |
world Championships. To have their injury, the odds are against it. You | :13:59. | :14:02. | |
have to be quite lucky. Not only do you have to be a talented boxer to | :14:03. | :14:06. | |
win the gold, you have to be lucky, as well. In five contest if you | :14:07. | :14:09. | |
don't get your win the gold, you have to be lucky, | :14:10. | :14:12. | |
as well. In five contest if you head rubbing, somebody will come in with | :14:13. | :14:18. | |
their head. Lots of questions about Reece McFadden. There is confidence | :14:19. | :14:22. | |
when it comes to Reece McFadden. There is confidence | :14:23. | :14:25. | |
line to arrogance. Has Reece McFadden. There is confidence | :14:26. | :14:31. | |
it? He has impressed me probably more than any of the Scottish | :14:32. | :14:37. | |
boxers. He has used the crowd to his advantage. He hasn't gone silly | :14:38. | :14:40. | |
boxers. He has used the crowd to his it, forward in a style that he is | :14:41. | :14:44. | |
not suited to. He has used to what -- he uses what he has got, weights | :14:45. | :14:47. | |
and then springs. He has the desire. Nathan Thorley as well. I have heard | :14:48. | :15:04. | |
Ritchie mentioned in midweek how some of the Scottish boxers have | :15:05. | :15:08. | |
risen the occasion with the home crowd and some have fallen away that | :15:09. | :15:15. | |
we see that with all sport. I am not sure about falling away but some | :15:16. | :15:20. | |
have got so emotional from the crowd, they are not boxing to order | :15:21. | :15:27. | |
and to the best of their skills and strategies. They want to have a go, | :15:28. | :15:33. | |
perhaps to their detriment. Reece McFadden, Josh Taylor, they have | :15:34. | :15:38. | |
used it rigidly. They have elevated and it has been it and eight -- | :15:39. | :15:46. | |
intimidator for the others. And where is the solar plexus? You say | :15:47. | :15:52. | |
it in every fight! It is right there! You don't want an uppercut | :15:53. | :16:00. | |
from him there! It stays with you and you cannot tense up. It is a | :16:01. | :16:07. | |
seminal part of boxing! Gentleman Jim Corbett, like in the solar | :16:08. | :16:13. | |
plexus, he is the new heavyweight champion of the world! You have got | :16:14. | :16:19. | |
a big reach advantage as well! Every night we have done something very | :16:20. | :16:25. | |
special on BBC Three. Stand-by, it is time for this... | :16:26. | :16:38. | |
These two are genuinely worried! This has become increasingly | :16:39. | :16:45. | |
popular, we get the team to try to name as many of the 71 nations and | :16:46. | :16:50. | |
territories as is humanly possible in 30 seconds. This is the | :16:51. | :16:57. | |
leaderboard at the moment. Scotland proudly at the top. | :16:58. | :17:05. | |
leaderboard at the moment. Scotland Who is counting? I was about to | :17:06. | :17:15. | |
introduce Tim. Our floor manager. He is the Guardian of the list. I have | :17:16. | :17:22. | |
seen that little jab, I don't want any of that! If he says you have not | :17:23. | :17:30. | |
won, you have not won it! Here we go we will put 30 seconds on the clock. | :17:31. | :17:35. | |
Your time starts now. Scotland, England, Wales. Nauru, India, | :17:36. | :17:42. | |
Bangladesh, Trinidad and Tobago, Barbados. Botswana, Cayman Islands, | :17:43. | :17:52. | |
Thiery Le?n, Canada, Saint Lucia, they does, Gambia. Kenya, South | :17:53. | :18:04. | |
Africa, Mauritius. Seychelles. Samoa, Western Samoa. The klaxon has | :18:05. | :18:13. | |
gone. That was impressive. You got about 15 on your own! The final | :18:14. | :18:23. | |
score... I have resisted the urge to Mark Ritchie damper being a West | :18:24. | :18:29. | |
Brom van but the score is 29! Ronald! We are running until | :18:30. | :18:36. | |
Saturday so there is a chance of being knocked off. You can't have | :18:37. | :18:42. | |
another go. Would you like to see the leaderboard? You are | :18:43. | :18:50. | |
representing Jamaica! Because Ron's parents are from Jamaica. | :18:51. | :18:55. | |
They are genuinely happy even though it is almost entirely meaningless! | :18:56. | :19:06. | |
Do we win a medal? No, you can go now, lovely to talk to you. From | :19:07. | :19:12. | |
their incredible Commonwealth knowledge to a bit more table | :19:13. | :19:17. | |
tennis. This is the men's second round, Gavin Rumgay of Scotland | :19:18. | :19:20. | |
against Andre Ho of Canada. Gavin was the number one is a tennis | :19:21. | :19:28. | |
player as a schoolboy and enjoyed several victories over Andy Murray. | :19:29. | :19:30. | |
The winner is the first four games. He did well because it looked like | :19:31. | :19:53. | |
he would have to defend big-time. But that shot changed it. | :19:54. | :20:29. | |
And he gets one back. An unforced error really. Plenty of time. | :20:30. | :21:05. | |
Great disguise on the serve, it looked like it might race towards | :21:06. | :21:10. | |
Ho, he was there quickly. Wizardry from Andre Ho! Close to the | :21:11. | :21:50. | |
table and when Rumgay went back, he had been so successful that not that | :21:51. | :21:55. | |
time, the Canadian got the width he wanted. | :21:56. | :22:40. | |
Yes, top of the net and away and he is back level. You get the feeling | :22:41. | :23:11. | |
that the pendulum is beginning to swing Ho's way but Rumgay is doing | :23:12. | :23:19. | |
well to stay with him in game number four. | :23:20. | :23:41. | |
Yes, much better forehand crosscourt that time. | :23:42. | :24:10. | |
Yes, just a touch at the edge, acknowledged by Ho. | :24:11. | :24:34. | |
Oh yes! Choosing fabulous return here and he got it | :24:35. | :24:52. | |
spot on, guiding it home. Rumgay hits the front in game number four. | :24:53. | :25:00. | |
Yes, he feels the moment is now to finish this one off. One more big | :25:01. | :25:09. | |
stare down the court at Andre Ho. Two serves now for Rumgay. If he | :25:10. | :25:26. | |
get both of them, he is very nearly home. He has returned better but he | :25:27. | :25:30. | |
Not the very edge at the edge and is still having problems. | :25:31. | :25:40. | |
Not the very edge at the edge and there was no prayer for | :25:41. | :25:47. | |
Not the very edge at the edge and this one. Still a point in front. | :25:48. | :26:00. | |
He got that all wrong. Two fine returns from Ho, they are absolutely | :26:01. | :26:16. | |
crucial. But he got that slice wrong. 7-7. The last four points | :26:17. | :26:28. | |
have gone against serve. And there is another! | :26:29. | :26:38. | |
He was in trouble off the return, which was popped up the likely for | :26:39. | :27:16. | |
Andre Ho. 8-8. -- popped up delightfully. | :27:17. | :27:34. | |
Again, Ho so desperate not to lift on that return, he puts it right | :27:35. | :28:02. | |
into the net. We are still level. Two has been the | :28:03. | :28:08. | |
biggest lead throughout this game. Good return. He was way off with a | :28:09. | :29:05. | |
forehand. 10-10. You need to be two ahead to win. Alternate serves. | :29:06. | :29:14. | |
I think what he was saying was, be ready when the serve those to him | :29:15. | :30:27. | |
for a hard, long service. The first serve goes to Gavin Rumgay. | :30:28. | :30:49. | |
I thought he was going to set it up for the next shot. Instead of which, | :30:50. | :30:54. | |
it is game point number 24 Andre Ho. Well, it was a gambler's through to | :30:55. | :31:20. | |
go so wide he had to gamble on the mess coming from Andre Ho, and it | :31:21. | :31:25. | |
did. It is a shock that Andre Ho has made to regularly. Boy, was that | :31:26. | :31:28. | |
daring! Lots of different backhands, but | :31:29. | :31:52. | |
that was not the one he was looking for. Being driven way back. Andre Ho | :31:53. | :32:02. | |
has a third chance to finish off this game. | :32:03. | :32:12. | |
It can't have missed by much. Somehow he is hanging on in this | :32:13. | :32:28. | |
game. Again, the net is the villain as far | :32:29. | :32:59. | |
as Andre Ho is concerned. I way it went. Here is match point Ford Gavin | :33:00. | :33:02. | |
Rumgay of Scotland. A loose shot put him on the | :33:03. | :33:35. | |
defensive. It wasn't coming back. Great attack! He gestures to all | :33:36. | :34:15. | |
parts of the auditorium here! Match point number two. Again, on the | :34:16. | :34:20. | |
Andre Ho serve. Phenomenal defence! Gavin Rumgay has | :34:21. | :34:37. | |
done it again! That was a Phenomenal defence! Gavin Rumgay has | :34:38. | :34:51. | |
performance of real spirit. After getting that early leads, you felt | :34:52. | :34:55. | |
that Andre Ho was really after him. If that Don had against -- had gone | :34:56. | :35:05. | |
against them, who knows what was going to happen? He is not going to | :35:06. | :35:07. | |
do the lifting of going to happen? He is not going to | :35:08. | :35:14. | |
is great for everybody! Quite a year! Everybody loves him here in | :35:15. | :35:15. | |
Some match. A huge relief. He knew Glasgow. He is pretty keen | :35:16. | :35:31. | |
Some match. A huge relief. He knew that Andre Ho was becoming a very | :35:32. | :35:36. | |
dangerous opponent. In the end, Gavin Rumgay goes through to the | :35:37. | :35:40. | |
third round. 15-13 in the third game, 4-1 in games. | :35:41. | :35:48. | |
Congratulations to tempt to you. Let me tell you where it we are. The | :35:49. | :35:54. | |

came out. -- contact lens. Will we give the referee a kite? | :37:46. | :37:54. | |
Look at the bad guy coming in here. I reckon he is on the sick, he | :37:55. | :38:08. | |
should've been in work! Look at them, they netted them! A little | :38:09. | :38:17. | |
nap. These two had to go and change their shirts because they had on the | :38:18. | :38:19. | |
wrong colours! He gave him the slip! | :38:20. | :38:38. | |
I am still slightly confused by that, what the guy was doing in the | :38:39. | :38:47. | |
box is? Now, to snack news. Here is a | :38:48. | :38:55. | |
selection for you. Simon English says he is eating haggis crisps. My | :38:56. | :39:02. | |
crew don't like that. Liz Littlewood said pork scratchings and rum. | :39:03. | :39:06. | |
Andrew Ross has got home-made pecan pie. Joe Turner, he must be | :39:07. | :39:16. | |
desperate, he is eating dry spinach and ricotta tortellini. James Cocker | :39:17. | :39:22. | |
has a toasted banana mob loaf. Steve Lomas is at the Perth travel Lodge | :39:23. | :39:29. | |
watching BBC Three with some strange food. Paul Edwards, dairy free mango | :39:30. | :39:37. | |
ice cream. It is Howard's birthday today on camera. The banana mob | :39:38. | :39:47. | |
closes the winner, says Howard. We will do a few more of those before | :39:48. | :39:51. | |
we leave you. Howard, is your favourite sport Abington? It is! | :39:52. | :39:59. | |
Thank goodness! That is where we are going now. Final 16. The winner goes | :40:00. | :40:12. | |
into the quarterfinals. Let's join the badminton. | :40:13. | :41:01. | |
Well, have very tough opening game for the number four seed is,, Gabby | :41:02. | :41:13. | |
Adcock and Lauren Smith. They are still talking to each | :41:14. | :41:46. | |
other, and they still look very positive, which is a good thing. It | :41:47. | :41:54. | |
is interesting, that Gillian Robinson of the England coach, said, | :41:55. | :41:58. | |
you will get through with your attack. He is underlining what I | :41:59. | :42:05. | |
mentioned at the beginning of the first game, I was very surprised to | :42:06. | :42:09. | |
see that the defence from Singapore was not better. It got better. They | :42:10. | :42:16. | |
got more into it. I had expected a far better defence from their side. | :42:17. | :42:48. | |
Just long. Good judgement. Wouldn't it be nice in this situation to see | :42:49. | :42:58. | |
Lauren Smith stepping more into it than really pushing it down the | :42:59. | :43:00. | |
line? Yes. That is much better, more live in | :43:01. | :44:02. | |
their defence. This speedy and it is good. Yes. -- this | :44:03. | :44:22. | |
Oh yes, nice change of pace from Fu Mingtian. Just reached it. | :44:23. | :44:45. | |
That has gone long. I have never really spoken to Lauren Smith, we | :44:46. | :45:11. | |
have seen her at a number of the super series of events we have been | :45:12. | :45:16. | |
at but she describes herself as competitive, fiery and sociable. | :45:17. | :45:21. | |
After watching her last night and from what we have seen so far today, | :45:22. | :45:27. | |
I think I can see that. No, I have never spoken to her either. I saw | :45:28. | :45:34. | |
her on the junior scene when I was the Danish national coach for the | :45:35. | :45:41. | |
junior team. Queueing up for that one! It was good, they made a | :45:42. | :45:50. | |
decision on who would take it otherwise it could have gone really | :45:51. | :46:00. | |
bad. She is a hard worker, Smith. And that is the reason she has been | :46:01. | :46:04. | |
chosen to play with Gabby Adcock. That is the whole attitude, she is | :46:05. | :46:13. | |
in there and working hard. And quite obviously she wants to do well | :46:14. | :46:15. | |
she is prepared to fight and fight for every rally. | :46:16. | :47:00. | |
And once again, I think it is a very nice example of the fighting spirit | :47:01. | :47:12. | |
of the English pair. Eventually, as the coaches were saying, you will | :47:13. | :47:16. | |
get it down. They fight and fight and fight and eventually they get it | :47:17. | :47:20. | |
down but it takes quite a while. You have got to be fit. | :47:21. | :47:44. | |
Good flicked serve, immediately look from Vanessa Neo toward the service | :47:45. | :47:51. | |
judge as if to say, how did you not call that? Look at how she was ready | :47:52. | :48:01. | |
for that attack! It is good. It is, very proactive, it is good. That is | :48:02. | :48:15. | |
good play. Setting up a very good lead for the English here. Yes, a | :48:16. | :48:17. | |
6-point advantage. So, a 6-point advantage here in the | :48:18. | :49:15. | |
second game having or the first, Adcock and Smith. -- having already | :49:16. | :49:27. | |
won the first game. Well taken. What is going through my mind right now | :49:28. | :49:33. | |
is how much I would have loved to have seen... Of course people will | :49:34. | :49:37. | |
say I am biased because I played for England before, but can you imagine | :49:38. | :49:42. | |
if it had come down to this women's doubles in the mixed team final? | :49:43. | :49:47. | |
Down to the fifth and final match. It was scheduled to be this England | :49:48. | :49:52. | |
women's pair against the number two seeds in the tournament. Now you | :49:53. | :50:00. | |
have seen more of them and their fighting spirit, especially of | :50:01. | :50:07. | |
Lauren Smith... I honestly, totally agree with you. We had this | :50:08. | :50:14. | |
discussion and you win it! You are right that the English would win it. | :50:15. | :50:20. | |
But we didn't get that far. It is all speculation. Malaysia were | :50:21. | :50:26. | |
utterly brilliant and deserved their mixed team gold medal. All decided | :50:27. | :50:33. | |
in the Men's Singles, 21-19 in the third. Imagine that. | :50:34. | :50:40. | |
I know when you look at the top Chinese players and pears and the | :50:41. | :50:48. | |
top Korean pears in world terms, they are dominating in women's | :50:49. | :50:55. | |
doubles, that was a lovely shot. But I think this English pair have got | :50:56. | :51:00. | |
very good potential. You have Gabby Adcock who unquestionably is one of | :51:01. | :51:05. | |
the very best Mixed Doubles players, you don't get to number five in the | :51:06. | :51:09. | |
world unless you are very good will stop and I like the work ethic and | :51:10. | :51:17. | |
determination and may be there could be a bit more positive play on | :51:18. | :51:20. | |
defence from Lauren Smith as you say. Maybe also a little more | :51:21. | :51:26. | |
precision with her attacking play but she is still quite raw as it | :51:27. | :51:32. | |
were, only 22 years of age, not much international experience. She will | :51:33. | :51:35. | |
only get better and better. I totally agree. And the Danish will | :51:36. | :51:45. | |
find it very hard to beat this pair. Well worked, that is a perfect | :51:46. | :51:55. | |
example of what we have been talking about. Good power and on that | :51:56. | :52:00. | |
occasion it was very good placement from Lauren Smith. Getting the | :52:01. | :52:07. | |
shuttle back into the hitting zone of Gabby Adcock. | :52:08. | :52:16. | |
And again. It wasn't the cleanest keel, a bit of a mis-hit. -- | :52:17. | :52:31. | |
cleanest kill. Yes, that is definitely from Mixed Doubles. | :52:32. | :52:39. | |
Do you think they can lose it now? No. Not the way the match is going. | :52:40. | :53:05. | |
Yes, I like the idea. Vanessa Neo had to turn and she would have taken | :53:06. | :53:24. | |
that late. She could have punched it even more flat. Even flatter would | :53:25. | :53:29. | |
have been better. Three straight points for the | :53:30. | :54:09. | |
Singapore pair. But I can't see them mounting a comeback. | :54:10. | :54:16. | |
But there again, you never know, that is why we keep sitting down | :54:17. | :54:24. | |
watching more and more sport because extraordinary things do happen! Yes, | :54:25. | :54:32. | |
it is so unpredictable. We love it. Yes, that is what it is all about. | :54:33. | :54:36. | |
Overdone it. Just two points away from looking | :54:37. | :54:47. | |
their place in the quarterfinals, the English pair. And personally I | :54:48. | :54:54. | |
think this has been a lot easier than I expected. Me too. | :54:55. | :55:02. | |
I know it looked very respectable in the first game, 21-18, but we have | :55:03. | :55:15. | |
to say that they were 20-14 up. That was nice. Nice by Gabby. It is | :55:16. | :55:30. | |
setting it up very nicely but what a mess. -- v Miss. | :55:31. | :55:40. | |
First time of asking. Definitely not on the best shot in the game. That | :55:41. | :56:22. | |
shot from Lauren Smith was not a very good one but she got away with | :56:23. | :56:26. | |
it as her opponent played it into the net. After 37 minutes... The | :56:27. | :56:35. | |
victory. 21-18, 21-12. That is just about all we have for | :56:36. | :56:48. | |
you tonight. Normally we go inside to tell you what is | :56:49. | :56:51. | |
you tonight. Normally we go inside but as you can see, we have been | :56:52. | :56:56. | |
you tonight. Normally we go inside shut out. I continue who will be on | :56:57. | :56:57. | |
the sofa, Michael shut out. I continue who will be on | :56:58. | :57:02. | |
James, Tanni Grey-Thompson and Jade Jones, Beth Tweddle, Ashton eaten, | :57:03. | :57:06. | |
