Welcome, one and all. After a day without medals, the gold tap was | :00:21. | :00:24. | |
turned back on again. We'll show you every twist and turn from Day | :00:24. | :00:28. | |
13 at the Olympics and wedge as much action as we possibly can into | :00:28. | :00:31. | |
the next 45 minutes. You know the name by now. This is Olympic | :00:32. | :00:35. | |
Sportsday and this is what's coming Not one but two sensational | :00:35. | :00:39. | |
performances in the Olympic Stadium tonight. Usain Bolt and David | :00:39. | :00:43. | |
Rudisha both dominate their disciplines. | :00:43. | :00:45. | |
After a medal-less day for Team GB yesterday, three golden girls | :00:45. | :00:51. | |
turned it round today in dressage, boxing and taekwondo. | :00:51. | :00:54. | |
And we'll round everything else up for you - including some right | :00:54. | :01:02. | |
As always, we love it when you get involved. @mrdanwalker is where you | :01:03. | :01:06. | |
can find us on Twitter. Your comments and questions are welcome | :01:06. | :01:10. | |
and Paul Kelso of The Telegraph is standing by to rifle through them. | :01:10. | :01:13. | |
Let's start with the man who went into the evening session in the | :01:13. | :01:16. | |
stadium behind us here hoping to complete the 100, and 200m double | :01:16. | :01:26. | |
:01:26. | :01:36. | ||
He has blown the more away! Usain Bolt triumphs in majestic style. He | :01:36. | :01:46. | |
:01:46. | :01:51. | ||
Bold turns on the big engine. pulling away, he is going to win | :01:51. | :02:00. | |
the gold medal! When it comes to the championships, I brought it. | :02:00. | :02:03. | |
The champion becomes a legend. There was the normal overflowing | :02:03. | :02:06. | |
confidence in the build-up to the race - Bolt was preening, posturing, | :02:06. | :02:09. | |
playing with the crowd. Once again his countryman and training partner | :02:09. | :02:13. | |
Yohan Blake was the man most likely to concern him once they settled in | :02:13. | :02:23. | |
:02:23. | :02:59. | ||
This is what I wanted and I got it. I'm very proud of myself. I had a | :02:59. | :03:04. | |
rough season, I came out here and I did what I had to do. Is it more | :03:04. | :03:09. | |
special book to celebrate with these guys? Without a doubt. My | :03:09. | :03:14. | |
coach will be going crazy now. We pushed each other. This is the end | :03:14. | :03:20. | |
product. What about this guy? You pushed him hard all year. First and | :03:20. | :03:27. | |
foremost, I have to thank God. And the coach, he has been there. Usain | :03:27. | :03:32. | |
Bolt has motivated me all season. Everything has been going good. | :03:32. | :03:37. | |
hope you might break a world record, was it in the air? Definitely, I | :03:37. | :03:42. | |
think it was possible. I guess I wasn't fit enough. I was fast, but | :03:42. | :03:48. | |
not fit enough. I could feel the strain on my back a little bit. I | :03:48. | :03:54. | |
just tried to keep my form and brought it home. When I came off | :03:54. | :04:00. | |
the corner, I could feel it. This year has not been the easiest for | :04:01. | :04:06. | |
you. You said you were 90 does so - - 95% fit. Sum up what this means | :04:06. | :04:16. | |
:04:16. | :04:16. | ||
for you. It is hard. I am really dedicated to my work and I know | :04:16. | :04:20. | |
what London meant to me and I came it -- came here and did my best and | :04:20. | :04:25. | |
I'm proud of myself. I really wanted to get the world record, but | :04:25. | :04:31. | |
I am happy. He has managed to become the first athlete in history | :04:31. | :04:35. | |
to retain the 100 and 200 at consecutive games and he did it | :04:35. | :04:41. | |
with a bad back. Another incredible performance. Not bad to run the | :04:41. | :04:46. | |
same time as Michael Johnson in 1996 with a bad back. In 1996 that | :04:46. | :04:51. | |
seemed like the most amazing time you had seen in your life. But what | :04:51. | :04:57. | |
a performance. He was completely composed. That first 120 metres was | :04:57. | :05:01. | |
astonishing, he destroyed the field. He only had his team-mate to worry | :05:01. | :05:06. | |
about and he had enough in the tank. The first thing that broke the line | :05:06. | :05:11. | |
in the picture was the finger he brought to his lips. A lot of | :05:11. | :05:16. | |
people asking about him being only 25. He might have the best years | :05:16. | :05:21. | |
ahead of him. He will probably never be 100% fit again, but how | :05:22. | :05:28. | |
long can he go on for? He said this evening that he is thinking about | :05:28. | :05:35. | |
Rio. He is very conscience that Yohan Blake is 22. He has said many | :05:35. | :05:40. | |
times this evening that I told Blake two years ago it that this | :05:40. | :05:45. | |
Olympics is my time, but next time is yours. I suspect we will see him | :05:45. | :05:51. | |
in Rio, but the question is how good he will be. A Jamaican one- | :05:51. | :05:56. | |
two-three as well. Not much word from the Americans, but I imagine | :05:56. | :06:02. | |
they will be disappointed. For all the changes we have seen in Team GB, | :06:02. | :06:07. | |
there is still not a sprinting challenge. Absolutely. We have a | :06:07. | :06:11. | |
population that should be producing sprinters. We've had a debate over | :06:12. | :06:15. | |
Dwain Chambers for too long. The question should be why we are not | :06:15. | :06:24. | |
producing kids. It is not bad to go back to the Jamaicans. It is not a | :06:24. | :06:29. | |
bad team! I imagine there really is quite tasty. Did he say anything | :06:30. | :06:35. | |
about a possible career in football? He was asked about all | :06:35. | :06:41. | |
sorts of things. Including his ideal woman. He was asked whether | :06:41. | :06:46. | |
he would be a better partner for Wayne Rooney than Robin van Persie. | :06:46. | :06:50. | |
He thought he would be the perfect winner to provide service for them. | :06:50. | :06:52. | |
Be it could fall into place perfectly. | :06:52. | :06:55. | |
From one man who's dominating his event to another. David Rudisha has | :06:55. | :06:59. | |
ruled the 800m for the past couple of years, and at the age of 23 has | :06:59. | :07:03. | |
a long future ahead of him. As he lined up for tonight's final, there | :07:03. | :07:05. | |
was an expectancy around the stadium that those lucky enough to | :07:05. | :07:13. | |
be inside were about to see He wants to son -- he wants to make | :07:13. | :07:19. | |
sure his performance goes into the record books as a great one. Andrew | :07:19. | :07:24. | |
Osagie is hoping to run the race of Osagie is hoping to run the race of | :07:24. | :07:27. | |
his life against the world record holder, the world champion. He is | :07:27. | :07:32. | |
now attempting to become the Olympic champion, David Rudisha. He | :07:32. | :07:35. | |
loves to be at the front. A beautiful running action. Kaki | :07:35. | :07:45. | |
:07:45. | :07:45. | ||
comes across. The others have been sucked into this. For now, it is | :07:45. | :07:49. | |
following the script everybody thought would happen. Rudisha at | :07:49. | :07:55. | |
the front. He is stretching it out. A fast opening 300 metres. He is | :07:55. | :08:02. | |
looking for a decent time of 50 seconds. Kaki is following him. The | :08:02. | :08:07. | |
medals might be decided by the people that don't follow him. 49.2 | :08:07. | :08:13. | |
is a phenomenal opening. There have been Olympic records -- world | :08:13. | :08:23. | |
record set in the Olympic Games at 800m. David Rudisha, the great | :08:23. | :08:28. | |
athlete that he is. Key they have gone with him down the back | :08:28. | :08:33. | |
straight. Can they hang on? Look at this. That is really, really quick | :08:33. | :08:39. | |
through 600. A Mars moves into second place. Kitum has moved into | :08:39. | :08:47. | |
third. It is all about David Rudisha. Already the world record | :08:47. | :08:52. | |
holder, already the world champion. Striding away to become the Olympic | :08:52. | :08:59. | |
champion. How quick will it be? Watch the clock. World record! | :08:59. | :09:09. | |
:09:09. | :09:20. | ||
ever 800m race anyone has ever seen. ever 800m race anyone has ever seen. | :09:20. | :09:25. | |
What a privilege to be here. This is the moment I've been waiting for | :09:25. | :09:30. | |
for a very long time. To come here and break the world record is | :09:30. | :09:36. | |
something unbelievable. To plan to win the gold medal is one thing, a | :09:36. | :09:41. | |
world record is another, how long has that been in the making? I was | :09:41. | :09:46. | |
well prepared his ear and I had no doubt about winning, but I was | :09:46. | :09:48. | |
waiting for Dirk Kuyt -- perfect conditions to break the world | :09:48. | :09:54. | |
record. Today the weather was beautiful. I decided to go for it. | :09:54. | :10:00. | |
We glad he decided to go for it. Incredible achievement. Seb Coe has | :10:00. | :10:04. | |
described it as one of the greatest runs in Olympic history. It was | :10:04. | :10:07. | |
fantastic. I was looking forward to seeing him more than I was looking | :10:08. | :10:12. | |
forward to seeing Bolt. We have probably seen the athletic | :10:12. | :10:18. | |
performance of the Games. It was astonishing. He ran that without a | :10:18. | :10:22. | |
pacemaker. He didn't need to run that fast to win the title, but he | :10:22. | :10:26. | |
went for it. He said the weather was perfect and he felt like it. | :10:27. | :10:31. | |
Kenyan says the weather was perfect in London! It was scintillating. | :10:31. | :10:37. | |
Afterwards he said it would be fun to take on Usain Bolt at the 400m. | :10:37. | :10:41. | |
He one thing that tells you how good this race was. Andrew Osagie, | :10:41. | :10:46. | |
who has really come through, he came last but his time was quick | :10:46. | :10:49. | |
enough to win the last three Olympic Games finals. That is | :10:49. | :10:54. | |
ridiculous. It was. You look down the field and the stats, everybody | :10:54. | :10:59. | |
had run a personal best, and national record, a season's best. | :10:59. | :11:05. | |
They trailed in his wake. A fantastic run from Osagie. People | :11:05. | :11:08. | |
do come from nowhere and he can take heart from that. Some thing | :11:08. | :11:15. | |
else a lot of people has asked about. Where of the great middle- | :11:15. | :11:22. | |
distance runners we have had in the past? Is that coming through? Was | :11:22. | :11:28. | |
that maybe a golden period? certainly was. That period was | :11:28. | :11:34. | |
started by Seb Coe, Steve Cram and Steve Ovett. That was before they | :11:34. | :11:39. | |
were facing some great African runners. Before the real boom in | :11:39. | :11:43. | |
East African running particularly. That is what has changed. We are | :11:43. | :11:49. | |
not producing runners that quick and that good. But there's huge | :11:49. | :11:52. | |
competition in the distance events and that is what made Mo Farah's | :11:53. | :12:01. | |
victory on Saturday so great. We saw a run for the ages tonight. | :12:01. | :12:08. | |
number of people saying that Bolt is fantastic for the Olympics, for | :12:08. | :12:12. | |
athletics in general, but the problem is that when Bolt does | :12:12. | :12:19. | |
anything, it detracts from Rudisha, one of the great track performances. | :12:20. | :12:25. | |
It is up there with Michael Johnson's 400 in Atlanta in 1996. | :12:25. | :12:29. | |
Atlanta -- absolutely. You don't see distance records going in | :12:29. | :12:34. | |
Olympics. Some people I was talking to were uncomfortable with the Bolt | :12:34. | :12:39. | |
lap of honour going on as David Rudisha was receiving his medal. | :12:39. | :12:44. | |
The anthem was playing and I'm not sure Bolt was entirely aware that | :12:44. | :12:50. | |
he was possibly distracting the crowd. But in the TV interview, he | :12:50. | :12:55. | |
stopped to applaud the Rudisha. Half the guys in the stadium were | :12:55. | :13:00. | |
still on the man in yellow. Probably not his problem, our fault | :13:00. | :13:03. | |
for adoring him so much and looking it at the wonder that he produces. | :13:03. | :13:06. | |
Let's wrap up some of the other action this evening, starting with | :13:06. | :13:09. | |
a gold medal for America's Christian Taylor in the triple jump. | :13:09. | :13:13. | |
He added the Olympic title to his world crown with a superb leap of | :13:13. | :13:16. | |
17.81, the longest in the world this year. He finished ahead of | :13:16. | :13:18. | |
fellow Team USA member Will Claye with Italy's Fabrizio Donato taking | :13:18. | :13:23. | |
bronze. Another American took gold in the | :13:23. | :13:26. | |
decathlon, with Ashton Eaton claiming the top prize. He set a | :13:26. | :13:29. | |
new world record at the US trials and although he couldn't repeat | :13:29. | :13:33. | |
that here, he proved too strong for the rest of the field. He had a | :13:33. | :13:36. | |
151-point lead going into the final event, the 1500m, and never looked | :13:36. | :13:40. | |
like relinquishing it. He took gold ahead of team mate Trey Hardee, | :13:40. | :13:46. | |
with Cuban Leonel Suarez with the bronze. | :13:47. | :13:50. | |
Czech Barbora Spotakova has won the gold medal in the women's javelin, | :13:50. | :13:55. | |
successfully defending her title. A throw of 69.55 was good enough to | :13:55. | :13:57. | |
claim the competition, with two Germans, Christina Obergfoll and | :13:57. | :14:02. | |
Linda Stahl, taking silver and bronze. | :14:02. | :14:04. | |
The other notable event tonight was Caster Semenya qualifying easily | :14:04. | :14:09. | |
for the final of the 800m. She won her semi-final, setting a season's | :14:09. | :14:16. | |
best in the process of 1:57.67. Britain's Lyndsay Sharp failed to | :14:16. | :14:22. | |
make it through to the final. A couple of other bits to wrap up | :14:22. | :14:30. | |
in athletics. This from the morning session. After failing to make the | :14:30. | :14:34. | |
final of the 400m, Oscar Pistorius was hoping to have his day in the | :14:34. | :14:37. | |
4x4 relay, but it looked as though his Olympics were over following | :14:37. | :14:41. | |
this. While he waited to run the third for South Africa, his team- | :14:41. | :14:44. | |
mate Ofentse Mogawane collided with Kenya's Vincent Kiilu and was sent | :14:44. | :14:48. | |
sprawling to the track. The Kenyan continued, but Mogawane dislocated | :14:48. | :14:52. | |
his shoulder and was unable to carry on. Kenya were disqualified, | :14:52. | :14:55. | |
South Africa won an appeal and have now been allowed to run in the | :14:55. | :15:05. | |
:15:05. | :15:07. | ||
final where they will go from lane While all that was going on, the | :15:07. | :15:11. | |
British quartet qualified comfortably for the final. Martyn | :15:11. | :15:14. | |
Rooney took them home as they finished a close second to Trinidad | :15:14. | :15:20. | |
and Tobago. The final four matches tomorrow. High time we got on with | :15:20. | :15:25. | |
the favourite part of the show, and more Tweeds came in about the | :15:25. | :15:30. | |
global round-up. Mike says he loves it so much he has shaved it into | :15:30. | :15:36. | |
the back of his head. We have beach volleyball, diving, tae kwon do, | :15:36. | :15:42. | |
and wrestling. Every single day of the Olympics, China had struck gold | :15:42. | :15:52. | |
:15:52. | :15:57. | ||
and it was never going to be was never in doubt. Now, your | :15:57. | :16:01. | |
mother always told she could never count your chickens. The Australian | :16:01. | :16:04. | |
water polo team must have been under water when the lesson was | :16:04. | :16:08. | |
dished out. Seconds away from the victory, they started celebrating, | :16:08. | :16:18. | |
:16:18. | :16:19. | ||
McCormack has lasted! Hungary have the equaliser. A on face for a | :16:19. | :16:22. | |
little while, but the Australians but hated their coach by winning | :16:22. | :16:28. | |
the bronze in the overtime. In the final, the USA outclassed Spain for | :16:28. | :16:35. | |
a golden moment. According to the internet, Brazil has 47 beaches of | :16:35. | :16:40. | |
note compared to one in Germany. So the Germans won the men's beach | :16:40. | :16:45. | |
volleyball, obviously. In sport, it's not often you see the best of | :16:45. | :16:50. | |
the best, but here she is. The Japanese wrestler made it three | :16:50. | :16:54. | |
Olympic titles in a row and has obviously had plenty of time to | :16:54. | :17:04. | |
:17:04. | :17:06. | ||
This Russian has time on her side for more of these moments, only 21- | :17:06. | :17:11. | |
year-old. People are don't look -- of going out to start -- stop | :17:11. | :17:21. | |
:17:21. | :17:24. | ||
laughing at Australia as they creep It is now three golds on the water | :17:24. | :17:27. | |
for Australia in two days. When it comes to sprinting, it seems the | :17:27. | :17:32. | |
German rule in both the kayak and the canoe. The women's pair became | :17:32. | :17:36. | |
Olympic champions, as did the men. And just what you need when you | :17:36. | :17:42. | |
have reached the pinnacle of your sport, a nice, slobbering kiss. | :17:42. | :17:47. | |
There has been a lot of talk about inspiring a generation at 2012, but | :17:47. | :17:52. | |
it seems Afghanistan arrowhead or verse. This was the reaction back | :17:52. | :17:58. | |
home -- ahead of us. This was the reaction when they got through to | :17:58. | :18:04. | |
the quarter-finals of the tae kwon do back home. They would have been | :18:04. | :18:13. | |
even more happy when they secured a I don't seem to remember this | :18:13. | :18:19. | |
happening on Daley Thompson's decathlon on the ZX Spectrum. He | :18:19. | :18:29. | |
:18:29. | :18:32. | ||
clears the bar easily, only for the of Ross -- the US who ran the last | :18:32. | :18:37. | |
bit of the relay with a broken leg. Hard as nails, tough as teak. We | :18:37. | :18:45. | |
Lot has been said about the crowd at the Olympics and the loudest | :18:45. | :18:52. | |
venue has been deep excel arena during the Katie Taylor fight. -- | :18:52. | :18:57. | |
The Excel Arena. Nicola Adams was hoping to make her own bit of | :18:57. | :19:00. | |
history by becoming the first woman to take an Olympic title in the | :19:01. | :19:10. | |
:19:11. | :19:20. | ||
The winner by a score of 16-7, and Words that 29 year-old Nicola Adams | :19:20. | :19:24. | |
had waited more than half her life to here, and believe it or not, | :19:24. | :19:28. | |
this was not the punch that sealed a place in history as the first | :19:28. | :19:33. | |
woman to become an Olympic boxing champion. In the amateur code, and | :19:33. | :19:36. | |
knock down scores just one point, the same as any other successful | :19:36. | :19:42. | |
blow. But there were plenty of them as well. Adams, with a significant | :19:42. | :19:47. | |
advantage as we move into the final 30 seconds of the third round. | :19:47. | :19:52. | |
the more impressive to take 814-5 lead against a woman she described | :19:52. | :20:02. | |
:20:02. | :20:03. | ||
as her nemesis, Cancan Ren of China. And British rock Singh -- boxing | :20:03. | :20:07. | |
had a new hero. The 20th goal of the game celebrated in style by the | :20:07. | :20:11. | |
woman who had fought so long to win it. I dreamt about this since I was | :20:11. | :20:16. | |
12. The moment has finally come. I have my gold medal for Great | :20:16. | :20:21. | |
Britain, number one, this is what I have been working for. We got the | :20:21. | :20:26. | |
tactics spot-on. I have trained hard, worked hard and after my | :20:26. | :20:31. | |
injury I didn't think I would box again. To get a gold medal, I | :20:31. | :20:36. | |
couldn't top it off. This is what dreams are made of. If they thought | :20:36. | :20:39. | |
she took a good reception, they haven't heard anything yet. Katie | :20:39. | :20:42. | |
Taylor carried the flag at the Irish opening ceremony, and she | :20:42. | :20:46. | |
carried their best hope for a gold medal into the ring. She got off to | :20:46. | :20:55. | |
a slow start against Ochigava or a -- but she struck off -- rubbed off | :20:55. | :21:01. | |
the hopes of a nation and their worries in staff. She won Ireland's | :21:01. | :21:04. | |
first goal of the Games. After the first bell she knew she had done | :21:04. | :21:08. | |
enough. How long will the celebrations going Ireland? I don't | :21:08. | :21:14. | |
know. I'll have a great time and I go home, so it will be many, Meli | :21:14. | :21:21. | |
celebrations. In the third final of the night, Claressa Shields made | :21:21. | :21:27. | |
history. The 17-year-old Greek -- beat Torlopova to become the sexist | :21:27. | :21:34. | |
youngest boxer to win the gold. -- the Russian boxer. And Nicola Adams | :21:34. | :21:38. | |
says she wants to defend her title in four years time. Why to | :21:38. | :21:43. | |
spectacle in the arena, but Nicola Adams, the way she conducts herself. | :21:43. | :21:48. | |
So many people saying it is the smile both during and after. There | :21:48. | :21:52. | |
is something special about are the main issue smile when you see her | :21:52. | :21:57. | |
in action, even though she's hitting someone. It was incredible. | :21:57. | :22:01. | |
I was in the press centre, just up the park, and you don't often see | :22:01. | :22:06. | |
her room rising to its feet and I think there were even more smiles. | :22:06. | :22:11. | |
She just has a smile that lights up the room. A fantastic performance. | :22:11. | :22:17. | |
A real tear up and she boxed her ears off. Her mum took her to a row | :22:17. | :22:21. | |
Bix in Leeds and when she was sitting watching she sure the boys | :22:21. | :22:26. | |
boxing -- a row of bricks. Incredible single mindedness. She | :22:26. | :22:31. | |
was not even in the Olympics back then. It has been a big campaign to | :22:31. | :22:36. | |
get the sport into the game's which gathered pace after London winning | :22:36. | :22:40. | |
the right to have the Games because you need quality along the sport, | :22:40. | :22:45. | |
and that is one of the aims of the IOC. All sorts of professional | :22:45. | :22:49. | |
promoters have said that they do not agree with women's boxing, but | :22:49. | :22:54. | |
it is fabulously entertaining and she's a great champion, as is Katie | :22:54. | :22:59. | |
Taylor. They have silenced a few critics. One room I hope is truer | :22:59. | :23:02. | |
than Nicola Adams is that apparently her dog was in the | :23:02. | :23:06. | |
kennels and she paid for a TV so the dog could watch it. Please be | :23:06. | :23:12. | |
true! Katie Taylor, the Irish have at champion and they were so | :23:12. | :23:17. | |
overjoyed, the crowd, thousands of Irish fans. You wonder what could | :23:17. | :23:24. | |
light up the crowds even more, and lots of happy Irish people. I | :23:24. | :23:28. | |
walked past the big screen she won the medal, and the trickle laws | :23:28. | :23:33. | |
came out and it was amazing. Amazing to watch them both taking | :23:33. | :23:38. | |
gold today. The build-up to the tae kwon do competition has been about | :23:38. | :23:43. | |
the controversy with Aaron Cook -- airing Cook and the story of Sarah | :23:43. | :23:46. | |
Stephenson. But there were two other competitors keen to make | :23:46. | :23:51. | |
their mark. Jade Jones and Martin Stamper were in action, and they | :23:51. | :23:58. | |
did rather well, especially Jade Jones who became Olympic champion. | :23:58. | :24:03. | |
She beat the world No. 1 from Chinese Taipei, with a late rally, | :24:03. | :24:07. | |
including a kick to the head but her three. It followed earlier wins | :24:07. | :24:14. | |
against the Serbian. Then, in the final she was up against the | :24:14. | :24:20. | |
Chinese, and after a cagey opening, she went into the final round with | :24:20. | :24:26. | |
a two-point lead, closing out to seal it 6-4 to become Britain's | :24:26. | :24:33. | |
first tae kwon do gold medallist, and she loved it. She took my world | :24:33. | :24:39. | |
championship final, and she would not let me -- I would not let her | :24:39. | :24:43. | |
beat me here in front of my home crowd. The last two and a half | :24:43. | :24:49. | |
years, and you must be so proud. She knows I am so proud of her. The | :24:49. | :24:53. | |
work this girl has put in over the last six months has been ridiculous. | :24:53. | :24:57. | |
Getting up at 6am, doing extra training. Ridiculous. We have had | :24:57. | :25:01. | |
ups and downs, she has been in tears every other day, but she is a | :25:01. | :25:06. | |
fighter and she works hard. She is like a male athlete. In the female | :25:06. | :25:11. | |
department, she really is. I am so proud of her and she delivers under | :25:11. | :25:15. | |
pressure, and she did again today. You have achieved something that | :25:15. | :25:21. | |
even Sarah Stephenson has and. to be the first ever British | :25:21. | :25:27. | |
athlete to win an Olympic gold in tae kwon do, it is amazing. Martin | :25:27. | :25:36. | |
Stamper also made the semi-finals of the 68 kilogram category. He | :25:36. | :25:42. | |
came unstuck against the top seed from Turkey who was that 2011 world | :25:42. | :25:46. | |
and European champion and a bronze medallist in Beijing. Stamper gave | :25:46. | :25:51. | |
it his best but was beaten 9-6. He got the chance to fight for a | :25:51. | :25:57. | |
bronze, but the Afghani we saw in the round-up was too good on the | :25:57. | :26:02. | |
night. But still an impressive performance from Stamper. I have to | :26:02. | :26:07. | |
ask you about Jade Jones. Excitement about Nicola Adams, but | :26:07. | :26:10. | |
also a bad Jade Jones. These young women have flourished on become | :26:10. | :26:15. | |
superstars. The first time I have seen the celebration and it is | :26:15. | :26:18. | |
fantastic. A huge amount of controversy with the tae kwon do. | :26:18. | :26:24. | |
They have taken a battering and I have dished some of it out in those | :26:24. | :26:28. | |
situations but I always said it was a world-class programme and that is | :26:28. | :26:34. | |
a vindication. You are going to see Mohamed tomorrow, and there will be | :26:34. | :26:37. | |
some questions, and the performance will be scrutinised. He will be, | :26:38. | :26:41. | |
and it will be tough on him, because he is there instead of the | :26:41. | :26:46. | |
world No. 1. That was an unfortunate by-product of a | :26:46. | :26:51. | |
contentious selection. All he can do is see what his team-mates have | :26:51. | :26:54. | |
done and be inspired. He will get the backing from those crowds and | :26:54. | :26:59. | |
everyone watching, regardless of what went before. Well done, Jade | :26:59. | :27:03. | |
Jones. A wonderful moment when Sue Barker handed from the individual | :27:03. | :27:08. | |
dressage to the women whacking each other at the XL arena. We have seen | :27:08. | :27:11. | |
the boxing where Adams won gold, but time to find that he won the | :27:12. | :27:17. | |
battle of the dancing horses with Joe Wilson. A final day of the | :27:17. | :27:20. | |
equestrian at the London Olympics and the one they waited for. 20,000 | :27:21. | :27:26. | |
people gripped by the spectacle of the freestyle. Horse and rider are | :27:26. | :27:29. | |
judged not on just control but creativity. For those involved in | :27:29. | :27:34. | |
the sport, it is the ultimate. Laura Bechtolsheimer was the first | :27:35. | :27:41. | |
to go, in time with the medley from the Lion King. The judges said | :27:41. | :27:45. | |
83.4%. First place, for a while. The Netherlands are strong in the | :27:45. | :27:55. | |
:27:55. | :28:00. | ||
sport. She excelled, with a Charlotte Dujardin. The Great | :28:00. | :28:04. | |
Escape? This routine broke the British record in the competition | :28:04. | :28:10. | |
before the Olympics and it seemed to go pretty well. Then the wait | :28:10. | :28:17. | |
for the score. Look and listen. Over 90% for the north Londoner | :28:17. | :28:21. | |
with a French name. She'd only been competing internationally for a | :28:21. | :28:31. | |
:28:31. | :28:31. | ||
Unbelievable. I'm emotional about it. But he gave it everything today. | :28:31. | :28:36. | |
And gold and bronze for Dujardin and Bechtolsheimer. Five equestrian | :28:36. | :28:41. | |
medals at the game, a record. With the last event complete, the broad | :28:41. | :28:44. | |
reflection on the event is encouraging for the Great Britain. | :28:44. | :28:48. | |
For the first time ever they won medals across all disciplines. For | :28:48. | :28:51. | |
the riders and equine athletes, they have never been Olympic Days | :28:51. | :28:57. | |
Four years ago in Beijing, Keri- Anne Payne won Olympic silver in | :28:57. | :29:00. | |
the open water swin so today, in Hyde Park, the world champion was | :29:00. | :29:03. | |
one of the strong favourites to take the gold in the Serpentine in | :29:03. | :29:07. | |
front of a noisy home crowd. The weather was perfect, conditions | :29:07. | :29:14. | |
ideal, and this is what happened. ideal, and this is what happened. | :29:14. | :29:17. | |
20 minutes or so left and Keri-Anne Payne started well. She normally | :29:17. | :29:27. | |
:29:27. | :29:28. | ||
likes to start quickly. Leading from Australia. How on earth do you | :29:28. | :29:35. | |
find your staff in that? Are your staff! You can nick somebody else's | :29:35. | :29:42. | |
bottle. Absolute mayhem. Total wipeout. That is nonsense. That is | :29:42. | :29:48. | |
like a bad night club. She is looking more comfortable now. We've | :29:48. | :29:54. | |
got about 150 metres to the next feeding station. Not that far to go. | :29:54. | :30:01. | |
About half an hour to go. It looks like they are bunching up a little | :30:01. | :30:07. | |
bit again. Keri-Anne Payne in an efficient place. She is going to | :30:07. | :30:12. | |
get the gold, for a Hungarian. The Silver has gone to Andersson of the | :30:12. | :30:19. | |
USA. Keri-Anne Payne did just USA. Keri-Anne Payne did just | :30:19. | :30:23. | |
behind in fourth place. So close! It just didn't go my way from the | :30:23. | :30:29. | |
start. I really tried to get back up to the lead. I guess it shows | :30:29. | :30:35. | |
that they played me at my own game. She did such a great job. How much | :30:35. | :30:42. | |
were you hoping during the last lap? I was hurting most of the swim. | :30:42. | :30:47. | |
I missed the bottle and from then I really struggled. I was probably | :30:47. | :30:53. | |
working too hard. Then I just had to get back to a good position. I | :30:53. | :30:57. | |
got there but I did not have enough at the end. Is that it for you in | :30:57. | :31:01. | |
open-water swimming? Is that your last one? I don't know. I'm not | :31:01. | :31:08. | |
sure how things will go. It will be my last one for a while. We will | :31:08. | :31:15. | |
see. It is not the last of me in swimming. For a Hungarian wins the | :31:15. | :31:22. | |
gold Medal in the women's 10,000m open water. She led almost from the | :31:23. | :31:27. | |
stunt -- gun and deserved everything she got. | :31:27. | :31:32. | |
A lot of people treating about Keri-Anne Payne. Emily says she was | :31:32. | :31:37. | |
in Hyde Park today. People saying it is so hard to watch somebody put | :31:37. | :31:41. | |
in that much effort and come so close to the podium. An obvious | :31:42. | :31:49. | |
disappointment. Four hundredth of a second after 10 kilometres is quite | :31:49. | :31:55. | |
harsh. It was an incredible swim. They took it out so early and | :31:55. | :32:02. | |
stretch them. Keri-Anne Payne tends to win from the front. That is the | :32:02. | :32:07. | |
hardest way to do it. She was never really been the place she wanted to | :32:07. | :32:13. | |
be. Another swimming hope he got a lot of hype who hasn't delivered. | :32:13. | :32:16. | |
Michael says please remind people of how violent open-water swimming | :32:17. | :32:22. | |
is. It is not the greatest spectator sport in the world. But | :32:22. | :32:26. | |
there's so much fighting going on in the pack. It is incredibly | :32:26. | :32:33. | |
physical. It is like Swan wrestling! An underwater camera | :32:33. | :32:39. | |
showed us how violent it is would be a great tradition. | :32:40. | :32:42. | |
Wembley was packed out tonight for the women's football final. A crowd | :32:42. | :32:46. | |
of 80,203 was the largest ever to see a women's football match at the | :32:46. | :32:49. | |
Olympics. After their last minute injury time win over Canada in the | :32:49. | :32:52. | |
semis, the USA went into the game as favourites to retain their title | :32:52. | :32:53. | |
as favourites to retain their title against the world champions Japan. | :32:54. | :32:57. | |
And they started very well as Carli Lloyd gave them the lead inside the | :32:57. | :33:00. | |
first ten minutes And shortly after half-time, Lloyd struck again with | :33:00. | :33:03. | |
a great goal to make it 2-0 to the Americans Yuki Ogeemi pulled one | :33:03. | :33:07. | |
back for Japan, and with half an hour to go had plenty of time to | :33:07. | :33:10. | |
complete the comeback, but the USA hung on to clinch the gold medal | :33:10. | :33:19. | |
and retain their title. The bronze medal match was decided | :33:19. | :33:23. | |
in dramatic fashion at the City of Coventry Stadium. Canada won it | :33:23. | :33:28. | |
against France with an injury time winner. They were largely outplayed | :33:28. | :33:31. | |
by the French, but Diana Matheson struck to give the Canucks their | :33:31. | :33:39. | |
Now, regular viewers of this show will know that when Team GB are in | :33:39. | :33:42. | |
hockey action, we like to bring you all the highlights in a nice two or | :33:42. | :33:46. | |
three-minute chunk with a bit of Barry Davies magic. But we can't do | :33:46. | :33:49. | |
that tonight because there were just too many goals in the men's | :33:49. | :33:52. | |
semi final against the Netherlands. And most of them were in the Great | :33:52. | :33:55. | |
Britain net. The Dutch took an early two-goal lead, but when Team | :33:55. | :33:57. | |
GB pulled one back, we thought a GB pulled one back, we thought a | :33:57. | :34:02. | |
fightback was on the cards. How wrong we were. The Netherlands then | :34:02. | :34:06. | |
went on to score another seven to GB's one, making the final score 9- | :34:06. | :34:09. | |
2. It really was a humiliating defeat for the home side who are | :34:09. | :34:12. | |
trying to win a hockey medal for the first time since they reached | :34:12. | :34:16. | |
the final, and won it, in 1988. Two Dutch players, Billy Bakker and | :34:16. | :34:18. | |
Roderick Weusthof, scored hat- tricks as they inflicted the | :34:18. | :34:28. | |
:34:28. | :34:35. | ||
heaviest Olympic semi-final defeat At 2-1, we were back in it. Even at | :34:35. | :34:39. | |
4-1 at the start of the second half. We had a few corners and then had a | :34:39. | :34:46. | |
good chance against the goalkeeper. They got a little break and they | :34:46. | :34:54. | |
scored. The timing of the goals hit people. It knocked us back a bit | :34:54. | :34:58. | |
and when they get a head like that, they are brilliant players and they | :34:58. | :35:02. | |
just went and played hockey and they were pretty special. The Dutch | :35:02. | :35:05. | |
will meet Germany in the final after they put in a brilliant | :35:05. | :35:08. | |
performance to beat world champions and red hot favourites Australia. | :35:08. | :35:11. | |
They were trailing 1-0 and then 2-1, but scored three unanswered goals | :35:11. | :35:15. | |
to complete a memorable 4-2 victory. Germany will now set out to defend | :35:15. | :35:19. | |
the title they won four years ago in Beijing. Australia will meet | :35:19. | :35:27. | |
Team GB for bronze. You saw the dejection on the great British | :35:27. | :35:31. | |
hockey team. Same for the women last night. Both had high hopes in | :35:31. | :35:37. | |
this tournament and there has been 15,000 there for every game. | :35:37. | :35:42. | |
Unfortunately bronzes the best they can do. We really did have high | :35:42. | :35:48. | |
hopes. We thought this was an opportunity for one of them to come | :35:48. | :35:53. | |
through, the women particularly. The women lost three in a row in | :35:53. | :35:57. | |
the final analysis. Something slightly familiar about an 11 aside | :35:58. | :36:04. | |
British team losing to Dutch and Argentine opposition. We can say | :36:04. | :36:10. | |
they will take encouragement, but the Olympics were a great chance. | :36:10. | :36:13. | |
Hard to come back for bronze-medal match when you have been hammered. | :36:13. | :36:17. | |
That will be hard. The Australians will take anything they can get at | :36:17. | :36:23. | |
these Games. A tough game coming up. I said to Sally Pearson yesterday | :36:23. | :36:27. | |
that Australia were not having a good games. | :36:27. | :36:30. | |
BMX bandit Liam Phillips is through to the semi-finals of the men's | :36:30. | :36:32. | |
competition after a very encouraging performance in today's | :36:32. | :36:35. | |
quarter-final runs. Phillips finished second to American Connor | :36:35. | :36:38. | |
Fields in each of his first three runs, which was good enough to put | :36:38. | :36:41. | |
him through to tomorrow's semis. He also finished second to Fields in | :36:41. | :36:44. | |
the time-trial at the World Championships in May, only to | :36:44. | :36:47. | |
suffer a fractured collarbone a day later. He thought he'd never | :36:47. | :36:50. | |
compete at the Games, but made it thanks to a remarkable speedy | :36:50. | :36:57. | |
recovery. But if you needed a reminder of what can happen in BMX | :36:57. | :37:02. | |
races, look no further. How about this for a multi bike pile-up, | :37:02. | :37:08. | |
which apparently drew an audible gasp from the spectators. Pretty | :37:08. | :37:18. | |
:37:18. | :37:21. | ||
spectacular but thankfully no-one Even him! He had a cranium full of | :37:21. | :37:24. | |
tarmac. I'm not sure that phrase will catch on. | :37:24. | :37:28. | |
Now let's round up all things Team GB from today. We'll start at Eton | :37:28. | :37:31. | |
Dorney, where Rachel Cawthorn was in the final of the single kayak. | :37:31. | :37:34. | |
She went into the race after having won her heat and finished second in | :37:34. | :37:37. | |
the semi-final and was hopeful for a medal. Unfortunately, she | :37:37. | :37:39. | |
couldn't repeat that form and eventually trailed in sixth. She | :37:39. | :37:42. | |
admitted afterwards that she allowed nerves to get the better of | :37:42. | :37:44. | |
her. Francesca, or Frankie, Jones is in | :37:44. | :37:47. | |
21st place at the halfway stage of qualifying for the individual all- | :37:47. | :37:51. | |
around rhythmic gymnastics competition. She was among 24 | :37:51. | :37:54. | |
gymnasts who competed with the ball and hoop today, with the ribbon and | :37:54. | :37:58. | |
club routines to come tomorrow. The top ten will go through to | :37:58. | :38:03. | |
Saturday's final. Meanwhile in the team competition, | :38:03. | :38:07. | |
Great Britain are 11th overall and need to finish in the top eight to | :38:07. | :38:10. | |
make the final. It is the first time Team GB have been represented | :38:10. | :38:14. | |
at an Olympic Games in the group all-around competition. The team of | :38:14. | :38:17. | |
five - Rachel Smith, Louisa Pouli, Francesca Fox, Lynne Hutchison and | :38:17. | :38:20. | |
Jade Faulkner - put in one of their best performances and were overcome | :38:20. | :38:27. | |
with joy when the scores flashed up. The competition continues tomorrow. | :38:27. | :38:30. | |
From gymnastics on a mat to gymnastics in the water and Great | :38:30. | :38:33. | |
Britain ended day one of the synchronised swimming team final in | :38:33. | :38:37. | |
sixth position. There are eight teams competitng for gold, with the | :38:37. | :38:40. | |
technical routine today and the free tomorrow. Ice skating gold | :38:40. | :38:43. | |
medallist Robin Cousins has been helping Team GB with their | :38:43. | :38:48. | |
preparations. Olga Butkevych's Olympics lasted | :38:48. | :38:51. | |
just six minutes after she was beaten in the opening round of the | :38:51. | :38:54. | |
wrestling. The Ukranian-born Briton was a controversial selection, | :38:54. | :39:01. | |
having only gained British citizenship in May. She was Team | :39:01. | :39:04. | |
GB's only wrestler entered for the Games and was expected to reach the | :39:04. | :39:11. | |
quarter-finals. And patience required for Luke | :39:11. | :39:14. | |
Patience and Stuart Bithell - their bid for glory will have to wait | :39:14. | :39:18. | |
another day. A lack of wind in Weymouth meant their 470 medal race | :39:18. | :39:21. | |
had to be postponed. The British duo are guaranteed a silver and | :39:21. | :39:24. | |
will race against the Australian crew for the gold in the | :39:24. | :39:34. | |

Three more golds for Team GB today. 25 golds and 52 medals in all and | :39:35. | :39:43. | |
look pretty secure in third place, Predictably, most of the paper talk | :39:43. | :39:46. | |
tomorrow is of that man - Jamaica's gold medal machine Usain Bolt, | :39:46. | :39:56. | |

after his record-breaking double- The one story that has come out | :40:20. | :40:24. | |
tonight is apparently the police are studying footage of Usain | :40:24. | :40:30. | |
Bolt's victory lap. Somebody has nicked his necklace, which he is | :40:30. | :40:35. | |
not happy about. Hopefully that will turn up tomorrow. I hope he | :40:35. | :40:39. | |
has got a good turn of foot because Usain Bolt will catch him! They | :40:39. | :40:46. | |
will be in trouble. In the wonderful world of technology, why | :40:46. | :40:50. | |
do athletes still have sheets of paper on their chest? Some of them | :40:50. | :40:55. | |
now have chips in them. They fall off far too much. The numbers and | :40:55. | :41:02. | |
labels fall off. David says, he is enjoying these Olympics but he is | :41:02. | :41:10. | |
worried about the future of -- sport in schools. That is right. | :41:10. | :41:15. | |
There's a danger this opportunity passes us by. We've known this is | :41:15. | :41:19. | |
coming. School sport has to be a priority and it hasn't been in the | :41:19. | :41:23. | |
past. We've seen the benefit of the enjoyment the country has drawn | :41:23. | :41:28. | |
from this. I would love to see it as a major policy commitment. | :41:28. | :41:34. | |

many. They are stacking up. I thought it was a clear picture | :41:45. | :41:49. | |
after Saturday night. Rudisha was as good as anything I've ever seen. | :41:49. | :41:52. | |
But I was saying that about Mo Farah a couple of days ago. If Mo | :41:52. | :41:57. | |
Farah doubles up on Saturday, he will still have it. Those track | :41:57. | :42:01. | |
moments stand out. There's a negative opinion if of the media in | :42:01. | :42:05. | |
this country on occasions. A lot of people saying you must be desperate | :42:05. | :42:11. | |
to write a negative story because there's been so much positivity. | :42:11. | :42:21. | |
We've come into this and been surprised. You will always cautious | :42:21. | :42:25. | |

running out of superlatives. That's it for us. Two to go. Thank you for | :42:31. | :42:36. | |
