:00:21. > :00:24.Welcome, one and all. After a day without medals, the gold tap was
:00:24. > :00:28.turned back on again. We'll show you every twist and turn from Day
:00:28. > :00:31.13 at the Olympics and wedge as much action as we possibly can into
:00:32. > :00:35.the next 45 minutes. You know the name by now. This is Olympic
:00:35. > :00:39.Sportsday and this is what's coming Not one but two sensational
:00:39. > :00:43.performances in the Olympic Stadium tonight. Usain Bolt and David
:00:43. > :00:45.Rudisha both dominate their disciplines.
:00:45. > :00:51.After a medal-less day for Team GB yesterday, three golden girls
:00:51. > :00:54.turned it round today in dressage, boxing and taekwondo.
:00:54. > :01:02.And we'll round everything else up for you - including some right
:01:03. > :01:06.As always, we love it when you get involved. @mrdanwalker is where you
:01:06. > :01:10.can find us on Twitter. Your comments and questions are welcome
:01:10. > :01:13.and Paul Kelso of The Telegraph is standing by to rifle through them.
:01:13. > :01:16.Let's start with the man who went into the evening session in the
:01:16. > :01:26.stadium behind us here hoping to complete the 100, and 200m double
:01:26. > :01:36.
:01:36. > :01:46.He has blown the more away! Usain Bolt triumphs in majestic style. He
:01:46. > :01:51.
:01:51. > :02:00.Bold turns on the big engine. pulling away, he is going to win
:02:00. > :02:03.the gold medal! When it comes to the championships, I brought it.
:02:03. > :02:06.The champion becomes a legend. There was the normal overflowing
:02:06. > :02:09.confidence in the build-up to the race - Bolt was preening, posturing,
:02:09. > :02:13.playing with the crowd. Once again his countryman and training partner
:02:13. > :02:23.Yohan Blake was the man most likely to concern him once they settled in
:02:23. > :02:59.
:02:59. > :03:04.This is what I wanted and I got it. I'm very proud of myself. I had a
:03:04. > :03:09.rough season, I came out here and I did what I had to do. Is it more
:03:09. > :03:14.special book to celebrate with these guys? Without a doubt. My
:03:14. > :03:20.coach will be going crazy now. We pushed each other. This is the end
:03:20. > :03:27.product. What about this guy? You pushed him hard all year. First and
:03:27. > :03:32.foremost, I have to thank God. And the coach, he has been there. Usain
:03:32. > :03:37.Bolt has motivated me all season. Everything has been going good.
:03:37. > :03:42.hope you might break a world record, was it in the air? Definitely, I
:03:42. > :03:48.think it was possible. I guess I wasn't fit enough. I was fast, but
:03:48. > :03:54.not fit enough. I could feel the strain on my back a little bit. I
:03:54. > :04:00.just tried to keep my form and brought it home. When I came off
:04:01. > :04:06.the corner, I could feel it. This year has not been the easiest for
:04:06. > :04:16.you. You said you were 90 does so - - 95% fit. Sum up what this means
:04:16. > :04:16.
:04:16. > :04:20.for you. It is hard. I am really dedicated to my work and I know
:04:20. > :04:25.what London meant to me and I came it -- came here and did my best and
:04:25. > :04:31.I'm proud of myself. I really wanted to get the world record, but
:04:31. > :04:35.I am happy. He has managed to become the first athlete in history
:04:35. > :04:41.to retain the 100 and 200 at consecutive games and he did it
:04:41. > :04:46.with a bad back. Another incredible performance. Not bad to run the
:04:46. > :04:51.same time as Michael Johnson in 1996 with a bad back. In 1996 that
:04:51. > :04:57.seemed like the most amazing time you had seen in your life. But what
:04:57. > :05:01.a performance. He was completely composed. That first 120 metres was
:05:01. > :05:06.astonishing, he destroyed the field. He only had his team-mate to worry
:05:06. > :05:11.about and he had enough in the tank. The first thing that broke the line
:05:11. > :05:16.in the picture was the finger he brought to his lips. A lot of
:05:16. > :05:21.people asking about him being only 25. He might have the best years
:05:22. > :05:28.ahead of him. He will probably never be 100% fit again, but how
:05:28. > :05:35.long can he go on for? He said this evening that he is thinking about
:05:35. > :05:40.Rio. He is very conscience that Yohan Blake is 22. He has said many
:05:40. > :05:45.times this evening that I told Blake two years ago it that this
:05:45. > :05:51.Olympics is my time, but next time is yours. I suspect we will see him
:05:51. > :05:56.in Rio, but the question is how good he will be. A Jamaican one-
:05:56. > :06:02.two-three as well. Not much word from the Americans, but I imagine
:06:02. > :06:07.they will be disappointed. For all the changes we have seen in Team GB,
:06:07. > :06:11.there is still not a sprinting challenge. Absolutely. We have a
:06:12. > :06:15.population that should be producing sprinters. We've had a debate over
:06:15. > :06:24.Dwain Chambers for too long. The question should be why we are not
:06:24. > :06:29.producing kids. It is not bad to go back to the Jamaicans. It is not a
:06:30. > :06:35.bad team! I imagine there really is quite tasty. Did he say anything
:06:35. > :06:41.about a possible career in football? He was asked about all
:06:41. > :06:46.sorts of things. Including his ideal woman. He was asked whether
:06:46. > :06:50.he would be a better partner for Wayne Rooney than Robin van Persie.
:06:50. > :06:52.He thought he would be the perfect winner to provide service for them.
:06:52. > :06:55.Be it could fall into place perfectly.
:06:55. > :06:59.From one man who's dominating his event to another. David Rudisha has
:06:59. > :07:03.ruled the 800m for the past couple of years, and at the age of 23 has
:07:03. > :07:05.a long future ahead of him. As he lined up for tonight's final, there
:07:05. > :07:13.was an expectancy around the stadium that those lucky enough to
:07:13. > :07:19.be inside were about to see He wants to son -- he wants to make
:07:19. > :07:24.sure his performance goes into the record books as a great one. Andrew
:07:24. > :07:27.Osagie is hoping to run the race of Osagie is hoping to run the race of
:07:27. > :07:32.his life against the world record holder, the world champion. He is
:07:32. > :07:35.now attempting to become the Olympic champion, David Rudisha. He
:07:35. > :07:45.loves to be at the front. A beautiful running action. Kaki
:07:45. > :07:45.
:07:45. > :07:49.comes across. The others have been sucked into this. For now, it is
:07:49. > :07:55.following the script everybody thought would happen. Rudisha at
:07:55. > :08:02.the front. He is stretching it out. A fast opening 300 metres. He is
:08:02. > :08:07.looking for a decent time of 50 seconds. Kaki is following him. The
:08:07. > :08:13.medals might be decided by the people that don't follow him. 49.2
:08:13. > :08:23.is a phenomenal opening. There have been Olympic records -- world
:08:23. > :08:28.record set in the Olympic Games at 800m. David Rudisha, the great
:08:28. > :08:33.athlete that he is. Key they have gone with him down the back
:08:33. > :08:39.straight. Can they hang on? Look at this. That is really, really quick
:08:39. > :08:47.through 600. A Mars moves into second place. Kitum has moved into
:08:47. > :08:52.third. It is all about David Rudisha. Already the world record
:08:52. > :08:59.holder, already the world champion. Striding away to become the Olympic
:08:59. > :09:09.champion. How quick will it be? Watch the clock. World record!
:09:09. > :09:20.
:09:20. > :09:25.ever 800m race anyone has ever seen. ever 800m race anyone has ever seen.
:09:25. > :09:30.What a privilege to be here. This is the moment I've been waiting for
:09:30. > :09:36.for a very long time. To come here and break the world record is
:09:36. > :09:41.something unbelievable. To plan to win the gold medal is one thing, a
:09:41. > :09:46.world record is another, how long has that been in the making? I was
:09:46. > :09:48.well prepared his ear and I had no doubt about winning, but I was
:09:48. > :09:54.waiting for Dirk Kuyt -- perfect conditions to break the world
:09:54. > :10:00.record. Today the weather was beautiful. I decided to go for it.
:10:00. > :10:04.We glad he decided to go for it. Incredible achievement. Seb Coe has
:10:04. > :10:07.described it as one of the greatest runs in Olympic history. It was
:10:08. > :10:12.fantastic. I was looking forward to seeing him more than I was looking
:10:12. > :10:18.forward to seeing Bolt. We have probably seen the athletic
:10:18. > :10:22.performance of the Games. It was astonishing. He ran that without a
:10:22. > :10:26.pacemaker. He didn't need to run that fast to win the title, but he
:10:27. > :10:31.went for it. He said the weather was perfect and he felt like it.
:10:31. > :10:37.Kenyan says the weather was perfect in London! It was scintillating.
:10:37. > :10:41.Afterwards he said it would be fun to take on Usain Bolt at the 400m.
:10:41. > :10:46.He one thing that tells you how good this race was. Andrew Osagie,
:10:46. > :10:49.who has really come through, he came last but his time was quick
:10:49. > :10:54.enough to win the last three Olympic Games finals. That is
:10:54. > :10:59.ridiculous. It was. You look down the field and the stats, everybody
:10:59. > :11:05.had run a personal best, and national record, a season's best.
:11:05. > :11:08.They trailed in his wake. A fantastic run from Osagie. People
:11:08. > :11:15.do come from nowhere and he can take heart from that. Some thing
:11:15. > :11:22.else a lot of people has asked about. Where of the great middle-
:11:22. > :11:28.distance runners we have had in the past? Is that coming through? Was
:11:28. > :11:34.that maybe a golden period? certainly was. That period was
:11:34. > :11:39.started by Seb Coe, Steve Cram and Steve Ovett. That was before they
:11:39. > :11:43.were facing some great African runners. Before the real boom in
:11:43. > :11:49.East African running particularly. That is what has changed. We are
:11:49. > :11:52.not producing runners that quick and that good. But there's huge
:11:53. > :12:01.competition in the distance events and that is what made Mo Farah's
:12:01. > :12:08.victory on Saturday so great. We saw a run for the ages tonight.
:12:08. > :12:12.number of people saying that Bolt is fantastic for the Olympics, for
:12:12. > :12:19.athletics in general, but the problem is that when Bolt does
:12:20. > :12:25.anything, it detracts from Rudisha, one of the great track performances.
:12:25. > :12:29.It is up there with Michael Johnson's 400 in Atlanta in 1996.
:12:29. > :12:34.Atlanta -- absolutely. You don't see distance records going in
:12:34. > :12:39.Olympics. Some people I was talking to were uncomfortable with the Bolt
:12:39. > :12:44.lap of honour going on as David Rudisha was receiving his medal.
:12:44. > :12:50.The anthem was playing and I'm not sure Bolt was entirely aware that
:12:50. > :12:55.he was possibly distracting the crowd. But in the TV interview, he
:12:55. > :13:00.stopped to applaud the Rudisha. Half the guys in the stadium were
:13:00. > :13:03.still on the man in yellow. Probably not his problem, our fault
:13:03. > :13:06.for adoring him so much and looking it at the wonder that he produces.
:13:06. > :13:09.Let's wrap up some of the other action this evening, starting with
:13:09. > :13:13.a gold medal for America's Christian Taylor in the triple jump.
:13:13. > :13:16.He added the Olympic title to his world crown with a superb leap of
:13:16. > :13:18.17.81, the longest in the world this year. He finished ahead of
:13:18. > :13:23.fellow Team USA member Will Claye with Italy's Fabrizio Donato taking
:13:23. > :13:26.bronze. Another American took gold in the
:13:26. > :13:29.decathlon, with Ashton Eaton claiming the top prize. He set a
:13:29. > :13:33.new world record at the US trials and although he couldn't repeat
:13:33. > :13:36.that here, he proved too strong for the rest of the field. He had a
:13:36. > :13:40.151-point lead going into the final event, the 1500m, and never looked
:13:40. > :13:46.like relinquishing it. He took gold ahead of team mate Trey Hardee,
:13:47. > :13:50.with Cuban Leonel Suarez with the bronze.
:13:50. > :13:55.Czech Barbora Spotakova has won the gold medal in the women's javelin,
:13:55. > :13:57.successfully defending her title. A throw of 69.55 was good enough to
:13:57. > :14:02.claim the competition, with two Germans, Christina Obergfoll and
:14:02. > :14:04.Linda Stahl, taking silver and bronze.
:14:04. > :14:09.The other notable event tonight was Caster Semenya qualifying easily
:14:09. > :14:16.for the final of the 800m. She won her semi-final, setting a season's
:14:16. > :14:22.best in the process of 1:57.67. Britain's Lyndsay Sharp failed to
:14:22. > :14:30.make it through to the final. A couple of other bits to wrap up
:14:30. > :14:34.in athletics. This from the morning session. After failing to make the
:14:34. > :14:37.final of the 400m, Oscar Pistorius was hoping to have his day in the
:14:37. > :14:41.4x4 relay, but it looked as though his Olympics were over following
:14:41. > :14:44.this. While he waited to run the third for South Africa, his team-
:14:44. > :14:48.mate Ofentse Mogawane collided with Kenya's Vincent Kiilu and was sent
:14:48. > :14:52.sprawling to the track. The Kenyan continued, but Mogawane dislocated
:14:52. > :14:55.his shoulder and was unable to carry on. Kenya were disqualified,
:14:55. > :15:05.South Africa won an appeal and have now been allowed to run in the
:15:05. > :15:07.
:15:07. > :15:11.final where they will go from lane While all that was going on, the
:15:11. > :15:14.British quartet qualified comfortably for the final. Martyn
:15:14. > :15:20.Rooney took them home as they finished a close second to Trinidad
:15:20. > :15:25.and Tobago. The final four matches tomorrow. High time we got on with
:15:25. > :15:30.the favourite part of the show, and more Tweeds came in about the
:15:30. > :15:36.global round-up. Mike says he loves it so much he has shaved it into
:15:36. > :15:42.the back of his head. We have beach volleyball, diving, tae kwon do,
:15:42. > :15:52.and wrestling. Every single day of the Olympics, China had struck gold
:15:52. > :15:57.
:15:57. > :16:01.and it was never going to be was never in doubt. Now, your
:16:01. > :16:04.mother always told she could never count your chickens. The Australian
:16:04. > :16:08.water polo team must have been under water when the lesson was
:16:08. > :16:18.dished out. Seconds away from the victory, they started celebrating,
:16:18. > :16:19.
:16:19. > :16:22.McCormack has lasted! Hungary have the equaliser. A on face for a
:16:22. > :16:28.little while, but the Australians but hated their coach by winning
:16:28. > :16:35.the bronze in the overtime. In the final, the USA outclassed Spain for
:16:35. > :16:40.a golden moment. According to the internet, Brazil has 47 beaches of
:16:40. > :16:45.note compared to one in Germany. So the Germans won the men's beach
:16:45. > :16:50.volleyball, obviously. In sport, it's not often you see the best of
:16:50. > :16:54.the best, but here she is. The Japanese wrestler made it three
:16:54. > :17:04.Olympic titles in a row and has obviously had plenty of time to
:17:04. > :17:06.
:17:06. > :17:11.This Russian has time on her side for more of these moments, only 21-
:17:11. > :17:21.year-old. People are don't look -- of going out to start -- stop
:17:21. > :17:24.
:17:24. > :17:27.laughing at Australia as they creep It is now three golds on the water
:17:27. > :17:32.for Australia in two days. When it comes to sprinting, it seems the
:17:32. > :17:36.German rule in both the kayak and the canoe. The women's pair became
:17:36. > :17:42.Olympic champions, as did the men. And just what you need when you
:17:42. > :17:47.have reached the pinnacle of your sport, a nice, slobbering kiss.
:17:47. > :17:52.There has been a lot of talk about inspiring a generation at 2012, but
:17:52. > :17:58.it seems Afghanistan arrowhead or verse. This was the reaction back
:17:58. > :18:04.home -- ahead of us. This was the reaction when they got through to
:18:04. > :18:13.the quarter-finals of the tae kwon do back home. They would have been
:18:13. > :18:19.even more happy when they secured a I don't seem to remember this
:18:19. > :18:29.happening on Daley Thompson's decathlon on the ZX Spectrum. He
:18:29. > :18:32.
:18:32. > :18:37.clears the bar easily, only for the of Ross -- the US who ran the last
:18:37. > :18:45.bit of the relay with a broken leg. Hard as nails, tough as teak. We
:18:45. > :18:52.Lot has been said about the crowd at the Olympics and the loudest
:18:52. > :18:57.venue has been deep excel arena during the Katie Taylor fight. --
:18:57. > :19:00.The Excel Arena. Nicola Adams was hoping to make her own bit of
:19:01. > :19:10.history by becoming the first woman to take an Olympic title in the
:19:11. > :19:20.
:19:20. > :19:24.The winner by a score of 16-7, and Words that 29 year-old Nicola Adams
:19:24. > :19:28.had waited more than half her life to here, and believe it or not,
:19:28. > :19:33.this was not the punch that sealed a place in history as the first
:19:33. > :19:36.woman to become an Olympic boxing champion. In the amateur code, and
:19:36. > :19:42.knock down scores just one point, the same as any other successful
:19:42. > :19:47.blow. But there were plenty of them as well. Adams, with a significant
:19:47. > :19:52.advantage as we move into the final 30 seconds of the third round.
:19:52. > :20:02.the more impressive to take 814-5 lead against a woman she described
:20:02. > :20:03.
:20:03. > :20:07.as her nemesis, Cancan Ren of China. And British rock Singh -- boxing
:20:07. > :20:11.had a new hero. The 20th goal of the game celebrated in style by the
:20:11. > :20:16.woman who had fought so long to win it. I dreamt about this since I was
:20:16. > :20:21.12. The moment has finally come. I have my gold medal for Great
:20:21. > :20:26.Britain, number one, this is what I have been working for. We got the
:20:26. > :20:31.tactics spot-on. I have trained hard, worked hard and after my
:20:31. > :20:36.injury I didn't think I would box again. To get a gold medal, I
:20:36. > :20:39.couldn't top it off. This is what dreams are made of. If they thought
:20:39. > :20:42.she took a good reception, they haven't heard anything yet. Katie
:20:42. > :20:46.Taylor carried the flag at the Irish opening ceremony, and she
:20:46. > :20:55.carried their best hope for a gold medal into the ring. She got off to
:20:55. > :21:01.a slow start against Ochigava or a -- but she struck off -- rubbed off
:21:01. > :21:04.the hopes of a nation and their worries in staff. She won Ireland's
:21:04. > :21:08.first goal of the Games. After the first bell she knew she had done
:21:08. > :21:14.enough. How long will the celebrations going Ireland? I don't
:21:14. > :21:21.know. I'll have a great time and I go home, so it will be many, Meli
:21:21. > :21:27.celebrations. In the third final of the night, Claressa Shields made
:21:27. > :21:34.history. The 17-year-old Greek -- beat Torlopova to become the sexist
:21:34. > :21:38.youngest boxer to win the gold. -- the Russian boxer. And Nicola Adams
:21:38. > :21:43.says she wants to defend her title in four years time. Why to
:21:43. > :21:48.spectacle in the arena, but Nicola Adams, the way she conducts herself.
:21:48. > :21:52.So many people saying it is the smile both during and after. There
:21:52. > :21:57.is something special about are the main issue smile when you see her
:21:57. > :22:01.in action, even though she's hitting someone. It was incredible.
:22:01. > :22:06.I was in the press centre, just up the park, and you don't often see
:22:06. > :22:11.her room rising to its feet and I think there were even more smiles.
:22:11. > :22:17.She just has a smile that lights up the room. A fantastic performance.
:22:17. > :22:21.A real tear up and she boxed her ears off. Her mum took her to a row
:22:21. > :22:26.Bix in Leeds and when she was sitting watching she sure the boys
:22:26. > :22:31.boxing -- a row of bricks. Incredible single mindedness. She
:22:31. > :22:36.was not even in the Olympics back then. It has been a big campaign to
:22:36. > :22:40.get the sport into the game's which gathered pace after London winning
:22:40. > :22:45.the right to have the Games because you need quality along the sport,
:22:45. > :22:49.and that is one of the aims of the IOC. All sorts of professional
:22:49. > :22:54.promoters have said that they do not agree with women's boxing, but
:22:54. > :22:59.it is fabulously entertaining and she's a great champion, as is Katie
:22:59. > :23:02.Taylor. They have silenced a few critics. One room I hope is truer
:23:02. > :23:06.than Nicola Adams is that apparently her dog was in the
:23:06. > :23:12.kennels and she paid for a TV so the dog could watch it. Please be
:23:12. > :23:17.true! Katie Taylor, the Irish have at champion and they were so
:23:17. > :23:24.overjoyed, the crowd, thousands of Irish fans. You wonder what could
:23:24. > :23:28.light up the crowds even more, and lots of happy Irish people. I
:23:28. > :23:33.walked past the big screen she won the medal, and the trickle laws
:23:33. > :23:38.came out and it was amazing. Amazing to watch them both taking
:23:38. > :23:43.gold today. The build-up to the tae kwon do competition has been about
:23:43. > :23:46.the controversy with Aaron Cook -- airing Cook and the story of Sarah
:23:46. > :23:51.Stephenson. But there were two other competitors keen to make
:23:51. > :23:58.their mark. Jade Jones and Martin Stamper were in action, and they
:23:58. > :24:03.did rather well, especially Jade Jones who became Olympic champion.
:24:03. > :24:07.She beat the world No. 1 from Chinese Taipei, with a late rally,
:24:07. > :24:14.including a kick to the head but her three. It followed earlier wins
:24:14. > :24:20.against the Serbian. Then, in the final she was up against the
:24:20. > :24:26.Chinese, and after a cagey opening, she went into the final round with
:24:26. > :24:33.a two-point lead, closing out to seal it 6-4 to become Britain's
:24:33. > :24:39.first tae kwon do gold medallist, and she loved it. She took my world
:24:39. > :24:43.championship final, and she would not let me -- I would not let her
:24:43. > :24:49.beat me here in front of my home crowd. The last two and a half
:24:49. > :24:53.years, and you must be so proud. She knows I am so proud of her. The
:24:53. > :24:57.work this girl has put in over the last six months has been ridiculous.
:24:57. > :25:01.Getting up at 6am, doing extra training. Ridiculous. We have had
:25:01. > :25:06.ups and downs, she has been in tears every other day, but she is a
:25:06. > :25:11.fighter and she works hard. She is like a male athlete. In the female
:25:11. > :25:15.department, she really is. I am so proud of her and she delivers under
:25:15. > :25:21.pressure, and she did again today. You have achieved something that
:25:21. > :25:27.even Sarah Stephenson has and. to be the first ever British
:25:27. > :25:36.athlete to win an Olympic gold in tae kwon do, it is amazing. Martin
:25:36. > :25:42.Stamper also made the semi-finals of the 68 kilogram category. He
:25:42. > :25:46.came unstuck against the top seed from Turkey who was that 2011 world
:25:46. > :25:51.and European champion and a bronze medallist in Beijing. Stamper gave
:25:51. > :25:57.it his best but was beaten 9-6. He got the chance to fight for a
:25:57. > :26:02.bronze, but the Afghani we saw in the round-up was too good on the
:26:02. > :26:07.night. But still an impressive performance from Stamper. I have to
:26:07. > :26:10.ask you about Jade Jones. Excitement about Nicola Adams, but
:26:10. > :26:15.also a bad Jade Jones. These young women have flourished on become
:26:15. > :26:18.superstars. The first time I have seen the celebration and it is
:26:18. > :26:24.fantastic. A huge amount of controversy with the tae kwon do.
:26:24. > :26:28.They have taken a battering and I have dished some of it out in those
:26:28. > :26:34.situations but I always said it was a world-class programme and that is
:26:34. > :26:37.a vindication. You are going to see Mohamed tomorrow, and there will be
:26:38. > :26:41.some questions, and the performance will be scrutinised. He will be,
:26:41. > :26:46.and it will be tough on him, because he is there instead of the
:26:46. > :26:51.world No. 1. That was an unfortunate by-product of a
:26:51. > :26:54.contentious selection. All he can do is see what his team-mates have
:26:54. > :26:59.done and be inspired. He will get the backing from those crowds and
:26:59. > :27:03.everyone watching, regardless of what went before. Well done, Jade
:27:03. > :27:08.Jones. A wonderful moment when Sue Barker handed from the individual
:27:08. > :27:11.dressage to the women whacking each other at the XL arena. We have seen
:27:12. > :27:17.the boxing where Adams won gold, but time to find that he won the
:27:17. > :27:20.battle of the dancing horses with Joe Wilson. A final day of the
:27:21. > :27:26.equestrian at the London Olympics and the one they waited for. 20,000
:27:26. > :27:29.people gripped by the spectacle of the freestyle. Horse and rider are
:27:29. > :27:34.judged not on just control but creativity. For those involved in
:27:35. > :27:41.the sport, it is the ultimate. Laura Bechtolsheimer was the first
:27:41. > :27:45.to go, in time with the medley from the Lion King. The judges said
:27:45. > :27:55.83.4%. First place, for a while. The Netherlands are strong in the
:27:55. > :28:00.
:28:00. > :28:04.sport. She excelled, with a Charlotte Dujardin. The Great
:28:04. > :28:10.Escape? This routine broke the British record in the competition
:28:10. > :28:17.before the Olympics and it seemed to go pretty well. Then the wait
:28:17. > :28:21.for the score. Look and listen. Over 90% for the north Londoner
:28:21. > :28:31.with a French name. She'd only been competing internationally for a
:28:31. > :28:31.
:28:31. > :28:36.Unbelievable. I'm emotional about it. But he gave it everything today.
:28:36. > :28:41.And gold and bronze for Dujardin and Bechtolsheimer. Five equestrian
:28:41. > :28:44.medals at the game, a record. With the last event complete, the broad
:28:44. > :28:48.reflection on the event is encouraging for the Great Britain.
:28:48. > :28:51.For the first time ever they won medals across all disciplines. For
:28:51. > :28:57.the riders and equine athletes, they have never been Olympic Days
:28:57. > :29:00.Four years ago in Beijing, Keri- Anne Payne won Olympic silver in
:29:00. > :29:03.the open water swin so today, in Hyde Park, the world champion was
:29:03. > :29:07.one of the strong favourites to take the gold in the Serpentine in
:29:07. > :29:14.front of a noisy home crowd. The weather was perfect, conditions
:29:14. > :29:17.ideal, and this is what happened. ideal, and this is what happened.
:29:17. > :29:27.20 minutes or so left and Keri-Anne Payne started well. She normally
:29:27. > :29:28.
:29:28. > :29:35.likes to start quickly. Leading from Australia. How on earth do you
:29:35. > :29:42.find your staff in that? Are your staff! You can nick somebody else's
:29:42. > :29:48.bottle. Absolute mayhem. Total wipeout. That is nonsense. That is
:29:48. > :29:54.like a bad night club. She is looking more comfortable now. We've
:29:54. > :30:01.got about 150 metres to the next feeding station. Not that far to go.
:30:01. > :30:07.About half an hour to go. It looks like they are bunching up a little
:30:07. > :30:12.bit again. Keri-Anne Payne in an efficient place. She is going to
:30:12. > :30:19.get the gold, for a Hungarian. The Silver has gone to Andersson of the
:30:19. > :30:23.USA. Keri-Anne Payne did just USA. Keri-Anne Payne did just
:30:23. > :30:29.behind in fourth place. So close! It just didn't go my way from the
:30:29. > :30:35.start. I really tried to get back up to the lead. I guess it shows
:30:35. > :30:42.that they played me at my own game. She did such a great job. How much
:30:42. > :30:47.were you hoping during the last lap? I was hurting most of the swim.
:30:47. > :30:53.I missed the bottle and from then I really struggled. I was probably
:30:53. > :30:57.working too hard. Then I just had to get back to a good position. I
:30:57. > :31:01.got there but I did not have enough at the end. Is that it for you in
:31:01. > :31:08.open-water swimming? Is that your last one? I don't know. I'm not
:31:08. > :31:15.sure how things will go. It will be my last one for a while. We will
:31:15. > :31:22.see. It is not the last of me in swimming. For a Hungarian wins the
:31:23. > :31:27.gold Medal in the women's 10,000m open water. She led almost from the
:31:27. > :31:32.stunt -- gun and deserved everything she got.
:31:32. > :31:37.A lot of people treating about Keri-Anne Payne. Emily says she was
:31:37. > :31:41.in Hyde Park today. People saying it is so hard to watch somebody put
:31:42. > :31:49.in that much effort and come so close to the podium. An obvious
:31:49. > :31:55.disappointment. Four hundredth of a second after 10 kilometres is quite
:31:55. > :32:02.harsh. It was an incredible swim. They took it out so early and
:32:02. > :32:07.stretch them. Keri-Anne Payne tends to win from the front. That is the
:32:07. > :32:13.hardest way to do it. She was never really been the place she wanted to
:32:13. > :32:16.be. Another swimming hope he got a lot of hype who hasn't delivered.
:32:17. > :32:22.Michael says please remind people of how violent open-water swimming
:32:22. > :32:26.is. It is not the greatest spectator sport in the world. But
:32:26. > :32:33.there's so much fighting going on in the pack. It is incredibly
:32:33. > :32:39.physical. It is like Swan wrestling! An underwater camera
:32:40. > :32:42.showed us how violent it is would be a great tradition.
:32:42. > :32:46.Wembley was packed out tonight for the women's football final. A crowd
:32:46. > :32:49.of 80,203 was the largest ever to see a women's football match at the
:32:49. > :32:52.Olympics. After their last minute injury time win over Canada in the
:32:52. > :32:53.semis, the USA went into the game as favourites to retain their title
:32:54. > :32:57.as favourites to retain their title against the world champions Japan.
:32:57. > :33:00.And they started very well as Carli Lloyd gave them the lead inside the
:33:00. > :33:03.first ten minutes And shortly after half-time, Lloyd struck again with
:33:03. > :33:07.a great goal to make it 2-0 to the Americans Yuki Ogeemi pulled one
:33:07. > :33:10.back for Japan, and with half an hour to go had plenty of time to
:33:10. > :33:19.complete the comeback, but the USA hung on to clinch the gold medal
:33:19. > :33:23.and retain their title. The bronze medal match was decided
:33:23. > :33:28.in dramatic fashion at the City of Coventry Stadium. Canada won it
:33:28. > :33:31.against France with an injury time winner. They were largely outplayed
:33:31. > :33:39.by the French, but Diana Matheson struck to give the Canucks their
:33:39. > :33:42.Now, regular viewers of this show will know that when Team GB are in
:33:42. > :33:46.hockey action, we like to bring you all the highlights in a nice two or
:33:46. > :33:49.three-minute chunk with a bit of Barry Davies magic. But we can't do
:33:49. > :33:52.that tonight because there were just too many goals in the men's
:33:52. > :33:55.semi final against the Netherlands. And most of them were in the Great
:33:55. > :33:57.Britain net. The Dutch took an early two-goal lead, but when Team
:33:57. > :34:02.GB pulled one back, we thought a GB pulled one back, we thought a
:34:02. > :34:06.fightback was on the cards. How wrong we were. The Netherlands then
:34:06. > :34:09.went on to score another seven to GB's one, making the final score 9-
:34:09. > :34:12.2. It really was a humiliating defeat for the home side who are
:34:12. > :34:16.trying to win a hockey medal for the first time since they reached
:34:16. > :34:18.the final, and won it, in 1988. Two Dutch players, Billy Bakker and
:34:18. > :34:28.Roderick Weusthof, scored hat- tricks as they inflicted the
:34:28. > :34:35.
:34:35. > :34:39.heaviest Olympic semi-final defeat At 2-1, we were back in it. Even at
:34:39. > :34:46.4-1 at the start of the second half. We had a few corners and then had a
:34:46. > :34:54.good chance against the goalkeeper. They got a little break and they
:34:54. > :34:58.scored. The timing of the goals hit people. It knocked us back a bit
:34:58. > :35:02.and when they get a head like that, they are brilliant players and they
:35:02. > :35:05.just went and played hockey and they were pretty special. The Dutch
:35:05. > :35:08.will meet Germany in the final after they put in a brilliant
:35:08. > :35:11.performance to beat world champions and red hot favourites Australia.
:35:11. > :35:15.They were trailing 1-0 and then 2-1, but scored three unanswered goals
:35:15. > :35:19.to complete a memorable 4-2 victory. Germany will now set out to defend
:35:19. > :35:27.the title they won four years ago in Beijing. Australia will meet
:35:27. > :35:31.Team GB for bronze. You saw the dejection on the great British
:35:31. > :35:37.hockey team. Same for the women last night. Both had high hopes in
:35:37. > :35:42.this tournament and there has been 15,000 there for every game.
:35:42. > :35:48.Unfortunately bronzes the best they can do. We really did have high
:35:48. > :35:53.hopes. We thought this was an opportunity for one of them to come
:35:53. > :35:57.through, the women particularly. The women lost three in a row in
:35:58. > :36:04.the final analysis. Something slightly familiar about an 11 aside
:36:04. > :36:10.British team losing to Dutch and Argentine opposition. We can say
:36:10. > :36:13.they will take encouragement, but the Olympics were a great chance.
:36:13. > :36:17.Hard to come back for bronze-medal match when you have been hammered.
:36:17. > :36:23.That will be hard. The Australians will take anything they can get at
:36:23. > :36:27.these Games. A tough game coming up. I said to Sally Pearson yesterday
:36:27. > :36:30.that Australia were not having a good games.
:36:30. > :36:32.BMX bandit Liam Phillips is through to the semi-finals of the men's
:36:32. > :36:35.competition after a very encouraging performance in today's
:36:35. > :36:38.quarter-final runs. Phillips finished second to American Connor
:36:38. > :36:41.Fields in each of his first three runs, which was good enough to put
:36:41. > :36:44.him through to tomorrow's semis. He also finished second to Fields in
:36:44. > :36:47.the time-trial at the World Championships in May, only to
:36:47. > :36:50.suffer a fractured collarbone a day later. He thought he'd never
:36:50. > :36:57.compete at the Games, but made it thanks to a remarkable speedy
:36:57. > :37:02.recovery. But if you needed a reminder of what can happen in BMX
:37:02. > :37:08.races, look no further. How about this for a multi bike pile-up,
:37:08. > :37:18.which apparently drew an audible gasp from the spectators. Pretty
:37:18. > :37:21.
:37:21. > :37:24.spectacular but thankfully no-one Even him! He had a cranium full of
:37:24. > :37:28.tarmac. I'm not sure that phrase will catch on.
:37:28. > :37:31.Now let's round up all things Team GB from today. We'll start at Eton
:37:31. > :37:34.Dorney, where Rachel Cawthorn was in the final of the single kayak.
:37:34. > :37:37.She went into the race after having won her heat and finished second in
:37:37. > :37:39.the semi-final and was hopeful for a medal. Unfortunately, she
:37:39. > :37:42.couldn't repeat that form and eventually trailed in sixth. She
:37:42. > :37:44.admitted afterwards that she allowed nerves to get the better of
:37:44. > :37:47.her. Francesca, or Frankie, Jones is in
:37:47. > :37:51.21st place at the halfway stage of qualifying for the individual all-
:37:51. > :37:54.around rhythmic gymnastics competition. She was among 24
:37:54. > :37:58.gymnasts who competed with the ball and hoop today, with the ribbon and
:37:58. > :38:03.club routines to come tomorrow. The top ten will go through to
:38:03. > :38:07.Saturday's final. Meanwhile in the team competition,
:38:07. > :38:10.Great Britain are 11th overall and need to finish in the top eight to
:38:10. > :38:14.make the final. It is the first time Team GB have been represented
:38:14. > :38:17.at an Olympic Games in the group all-around competition. The team of
:38:17. > :38:20.five - Rachel Smith, Louisa Pouli, Francesca Fox, Lynne Hutchison and
:38:20. > :38:27.Jade Faulkner - put in one of their best performances and were overcome
:38:27. > :38:30.with joy when the scores flashed up. The competition continues tomorrow.
:38:30. > :38:33.From gymnastics on a mat to gymnastics in the water and Great
:38:33. > :38:37.Britain ended day one of the synchronised swimming team final in
:38:37. > :38:40.sixth position. There are eight teams competitng for gold, with the
:38:40. > :38:43.technical routine today and the free tomorrow. Ice skating gold
:38:43. > :38:48.medallist Robin Cousins has been helping Team GB with their
:38:48. > :38:51.preparations. Olga Butkevych's Olympics lasted
:38:51. > :38:54.just six minutes after she was beaten in the opening round of the
:38:54. > :39:01.wrestling. The Ukranian-born Briton was a controversial selection,
:39:01. > :39:04.having only gained British citizenship in May. She was Team
:39:04. > :39:11.GB's only wrestler entered for the Games and was expected to reach the
:39:11. > :39:14.quarter-finals. And patience required for Luke
:39:14. > :39:18.Patience and Stuart Bithell - their bid for glory will have to wait
:39:18. > :39:21.another day. A lack of wind in Weymouth meant their 470 medal race
:39:21. > :39:24.had to be postponed. The British duo are guaranteed a silver and
:39:24. > :39:34.will race against the Australian crew for the gold in the
:39:34. > :39:35.
:39:35. > :39:43.Three more golds for Team GB today. 25 golds and 52 medals in all and
:39:43. > :39:46.look pretty secure in third place, Predictably, most of the paper talk
:39:46. > :39:56.tomorrow is of that man - Jamaica's gold medal machine Usain Bolt,
:39:56. > :40:20.
:40:20. > :40:24.after his record-breaking double- The one story that has come out
:40:24. > :40:30.tonight is apparently the police are studying footage of Usain
:40:30. > :40:35.Bolt's victory lap. Somebody has nicked his necklace, which he is
:40:35. > :40:39.not happy about. Hopefully that will turn up tomorrow. I hope he
:40:39. > :40:46.has got a good turn of foot because Usain Bolt will catch him! They
:40:46. > :40:50.will be in trouble. In the wonderful world of technology, why
:40:50. > :40:55.do athletes still have sheets of paper on their chest? Some of them
:40:55. > :41:02.now have chips in them. They fall off far too much. The numbers and
:41:02. > :41:10.labels fall off. David says, he is enjoying these Olympics but he is
:41:10. > :41:15.worried about the future of -- sport in schools. That is right.
:41:15. > :41:19.There's a danger this opportunity passes us by. We've known this is
:41:19. > :41:23.coming. School sport has to be a priority and it hasn't been in the
:41:23. > :41:28.past. We've seen the benefit of the enjoyment the country has drawn
:41:28. > :41:34.from this. I would love to see it as a major policy commitment.
:41:34. > :41:40.always get people asking for your highlight of the Games. Most people
:41:40. > :41:45.have gone for that Saturday night. Has anything stood out for you?
:41:45. > :41:49.many. They are stacking up. I thought it was a clear picture
:41:49. > :41:52.after Saturday night. Rudisha was as good as anything I've ever seen.
:41:52. > :41:57.But I was saying that about Mo Farah a couple of days ago. If Mo
:41:57. > :42:01.Farah doubles up on Saturday, he will still have it. Those track
:42:01. > :42:05.moments stand out. There's a negative opinion if of the media in
:42:05. > :42:11.this country on occasions. A lot of people saying you must be desperate
:42:11. > :42:21.to write a negative story because there's been so much positivity.
:42:21. > :42:25.We've come into this and been surprised. You will always cautious
:42:26. > :42:31.about saying things. Everything has gone fantastically well. We are
:42:31. > :42:36.running out of superlatives. That's it for us. Two to go. Thank you for
:42:36. > :42:43.watching. A hat-trick of appearances for you, Paul. We will
:42:43. > :42:53.be back tomorrow. No gold medals on Wednesday, but today GB hit back
:42:53. > :42:53.
:42:53. > :43:43.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 49 seconds
:43:43. > :43:48.Charlotte Dujardin has iced the cake in style and Britain has got
:43:48. > :43:53.another gold medal! The teenage kicking superstar from North Wales
:43:53. > :44:00.is the Olympic champion. Nicola Adams of Great Britain has just
