Day 3 BBC One: 00.00-04.15 Olympics

# Here and now, let's get this straight

# Bugaloo, baby, I'm feeling great # Because I'm feeling the Latin beat

# Just commence your feet to skate # Pick up your arms and make 'em

shake # Baby, if you think you're shy

# Do me a favour, honey # Go some place and hide!

# Yeah, baby # I like it like that

# You better believe me when I tell you

# I said I like it like that # I like it like that

# I said I like it like that... We absolutely love it. Hello.

Welcome back to the cop cab that, day three of Rio 2016 and the

Olympic Games well and truly under way and we could have another medal

in the pool, with James Guy going in the final of the men's 200m

freestyle. Plenty of sport to keep you right entertained. This is

what's coming up: boxing first. We'll see our

heavyweight in action in a few minutes again a tough Cuban

opponent. We'll be at the pool to see if James

Guy can win our fifth medal of the Olympic Games. Two superstars of the

pool in action as Chad Le Clos and Michael Phelps go in the men's 200m

butterfly. And a great story emerging in the table tennis. Paul

Drinkhall into the last 16, the first Briton to reach that stage

since 1992. So this is how we line up? The boxing is up next. We've got

wonderful weightlifting to look forward to with the World Champion

in action. Then we've got Paul Drinkhall's match at 1:30. James

Guy's final is at around 2:21 and it's Phelps, Le Clos, about 40

minutes later. Take a look at this - one of the

world's most iconic beaches, the Copacabana, dark and a little

world's most iconic beaches, the this evening. Today it's been full

of beach volleyball fans loving the 2016 Games, Brazilian fans mingling

with visitors of all nations. They're proud of their city and

their nation as we go into the evening session of day three.

But first up this evening, it's boxing and a heavyweight bout and

it's going to be a terrific boult, this one, with Great Britain's

laurngs Okolie taking on a very tough Cuban. Well this is a really

incredible story when you look at Okolie's history. He was serving

burgers near the boxing venue for London 2012 but is now one win away

from the last eight of the heavyweight division. The

23-year-old from London is actually on a sports scholarship at the

University of East London but has deferred his studies until after the

Games. He's looking for top marks this this bout. So we're heading to

the Rio Centro, next to the Olympic Park, a venue built in 1977, which

has previously hosted pan American Games events. Commentary comes from

Lawrence McIntosh and Ricci Woodhall.

We're under way in the 91kg heavyweight division. The man

wearing blue who has just taken an arcing right hand over the top is

Cuba's Erislande Savon, ranked number two in the world and in the

tournament. He's the reigning World Championship silver medallist at

91kg. His opponent is 23-year-old Lawrence Okolie from East London.

One of the ten-man British boxing team. And two women in a 12-strong

British boxing squad as well. #7 when these two men met in May - and

once again a cracking right hand has put Okolie on to the canvas and it's

another calamitous start for the man in red. He was dropped three times

in the opening round of the World Series boxing match-up and he's on

to the canvas for a fourth time in his second meeting against Erislande

Savon. Terrible start for Okolie. He's got to jab and move off to his

right. If moves to the left, I walks on to the right hand. He's got to

jab and move to the right, move away from that dangerous shot of the

Cuban. It's a terrible start but he's recovered again now so he's got

to get back to using that and get back to being positive. He came into

the contest in a confident mood. He's got to return to that now and

make no more mistakes. Lawrence Okolie beat three boxers in the top

ten to secure his passage to his first Olympic Games in 2016. He's

facing a man ranked number two in the world for the second time in a

matter of months. So those ricketories over the top-ten

opponents show you the type of talent that Lawrence Okolie

possesses but he's just a baby in elite international becoming terms.

Whereas Erislandy Savon has been competing at elite international

level. His sole global title was won way back in 2008. At that time,

Lawrence Okolie had no thoughts about entering the sports of boxing.

He did sew after -- so after seeing Anthony Joshua win superheavyweight

gold and discovered his immense talent but he's facing a man of

incredible talent in his own right with heaps of experience as well

He's got to be accurate and hit the target. As soon as Savon goes into

range, it's got to go out and keep the Cuban at bay. He's got to be

fast, accurate, hit the target and bring the right hand into play, keep

the gap and keep it long range. You can see Savon is struggling a

little bit to close the gap down because Okolie has recovered with

that jab. That wasn't bad towards the end of the round, but a terrible

start. Most certainly, but Lawrence Okolie got himself out of that

opening round after being dropped by a lovely long straight right cross

delivered from this man. So calm and in control in the boxing ring and so

far Okolie has done nothing to take him out of his rhythm. A good right

hand over the top, wasn't it? And there he was there. Let's have a

look at it again. He moves in, Savon, there it is there. Just

catches him off balance a little bit and he goes down. It's because he

left his left hand out slightly more, didn't he? Okolie a little bit

slower. It will be across the board for the Cuban.

No question there. But he's recovered. And it was a good,

positive end to the round for Okolie.

So into the second round then. Lawrence Okolie of Great Britain

immediately on to the front foot after conceding the opening round

across the board, 10-9 in favour of the second-ranked boxer in the

world. There's a good right hand by Okolie and it staggered Savon. His

boxing stance betrayed him momentarily but he's got it back

beneath him now. How badly hurt was he by that? Spurs him back into

action as he comes back with a long right hand over the top but Okolie

is growing in confident and getting his range against Savon. Now, that's

better from Lawrence Okolie. You see, the Cubans are not invincible.

If you hit them on the chin, they will stagger. Tremendous shot from

Lawrence Okolie. Great right hand, straight, long range. More of it,

please, Lawrence Okolie. All of a sudden, this contest taking on a

little bit more of an even nature in this second round. There's a

terrific left jab once again which catches Savon as he's coming in and

just disrupts his boxing stance but now the man is looking to put his

punches together. World Series boxing experience in seasons four,

five and six, and, during that time, Savon has compiled an astonishing

record of 22 contests without defeat over the five-round duration.

Lawrence Okolie made his World Series boxing bow this year. And his

lone defeat came against the man in blue in the final between the

British Lionhearts and the Cuba Domadores, which took place in

neutral territory in Tashkent, Uzbekistan. It's about 100%

concentration. Savon is definitely struggling with closing that gap.

He's starting his attack from too far out because he can't get to

Lawrence Okolie. That's why the jab has got to be accurate. Slam that

jab into his face and then bring that right hand across as well. But

keep your distance and range and it's all about concentration and

accuracy. And again, made to miss with the attempted right hand. Oh,

that's a cracking right hand from Savon but Okolie took it well.

Trying to get his jab working but now he holds on to gain some respite

because that was a right hand that landed right on the point of his

chin. He just oozes class, Savon. He's brilliant. He really is. But

he's having a few problems here with closing that gap down. He's

quickening his feet up there. That's how he landed the right hand. And

that's why Okolie has got to be more concentrated. He's got to be on the

ball here, Okolie. And he can do this. He's most certainly already

demonstrated his incredible talent, Okolie, just by qualifying for Rio

2016, by winning the Europe Olympic qualification event in Samsung.

That's when he beat those three top-ten operators. Here he's fating

one of the very best of all and he's acquit -- facing one of the very

best of all and he's acquitting himself strongly. But it's a strong

conclusion to the round from Savon. As you pointed out, that can be a

significant tactic in determining the outcome of a round that is

competitive otherwise. Savon has got the round again for me. He did the

better work. There were signs there. Let's try a listen to Dave Alloway.

Good lad. You're doing brilliant... Dave Alloway telling Lawrence Okolie

that he's doing brilliantly but the right hand is on the button from

South Africa sav. As Savon is coming forward, he's got to be more

accurate. That gave Savon problems but as Savon is coming forward, he

beat Okolie to the punch. I'm talking about accuracy. As he comes,

you've got to hit him with that left hand first. So the opening round was

10-9 in favour of Savon and the second round has gone the same way.

I should point out that putting a man on the floor in open boxing

doesn't necessarily result in a 10-8 round but Savon is in a commanding

position. Just some adjustments to the

waistband. It has to be visible so the referee can discern what is a

low blow or not, that white sash. So now the third and final round under

way and the equation is quite simple. Lawrence Okolie of Great

Britain needs a massive round because he's trailing by two points

on all three of the score cards to the reigning World Championship

silver medallist, Erislandy Savon. And of course, when you're built

like Lawrence Okolie and possess the type of punching power that he does,

a knock-out is always an option but you're going to have to find a chin

of a heavyweight who is pretty elusive when he's at his best.

Okolie has had some success with his right hand in round number two but

he's got to find a Sunday punch here. This contest isn't over yet.

Lawrence Okolie can find that right hand. He's just got to bring Savon

on to it and we know how good Savon is. We know he's very confident. But

he may come over that front foot. One mistake and Okolie can

capitalise with that right hand. It's forcing the opponent to do

that. Reigning Pan Am games champion, reigning Americas

continental champion from last year is Erislandy Savon and really, when

you look at some of the results that have gone against him, it's rather

surprising that he hasn't picked up global success at the senior level

yet and occupied the highest plinth on the podium. He's boxing very well

here and comes forward with another pile-driving right hand that causes

Okolie to become a little bit disorganised and hold on at close

range. Well, Okolie is going for it now but he's got to create a little

bit more space. I think he's more effective at boxing at range,

Okolie. He's not going to win it here at close quarters. He's got to

bring him on to the right hand and that means bringing him on at long

range. That's it there, bring him on to the right hand. It's a wonderful

left hand from Okolie. He's a young man who oozes confidence to go along

with his immense talent. Spoken of winning the Olympic title but he's

facing an uphill battle in the final minute of the third and final round,

trailing by two points on all three cards after a bad start against

Erislandy Savon. But he got back into it in the second round but

still didn't do enough to take it on the score cards of the judges. Good

right hand again from Savon. Chopping it down on to Okolie.

Okolie comes back with a left of his own. And, again, Savon lining him up

with a right hand and following with a left hook before coming underneath

with a good, right uppercut. He's just feeling it a little bit now,

Lawrence. It's a shame. He'll learn from this experience, though. He's

had his moments in this contest. It's worth pointing out that

Lawrence Okolie had just 25 contests coming into the Rio Olympic Games.

Exactly, yeah. Incredible performance to qualify for the

biggest boxing tournament on earth in this multisport extravaganza.

Produced a terrific victory in his first con test, did Lawrence Okolie,

but he ran into the brilliant Erislandy Savon, the tournament

number two seed, the reigning World Championship silver medallist in the

second round and Savon, for the second time in a matter of months,

demonstrated his superiority over the immensely talented, but still

inexperienced, Lawrence Okolie, but he's acquitted himself incredibly

well during the course of this Olympic tournament. He has indeed.

Great shot again from Savon. Okolie will learn from that. He was a

little bit in trouble there but nevertheless, he's an inexperienced

kid. He's one for 2020, one for Tokyo, Lawrence Okolie. He's very

inexperienced. But he's done really well here. It was a terrible start,

let's get it right, but he didn't cave in. He rocked Savon with one

shot. All credit to Lawrence Okolie. He'll come again. He's one for the

future. In terms of the present, let's head

down to the public address announcer and get the official announcement at

the conclusion of this heavyweight contest in the second preliminary

round. ANNOUNCER: Ladies and gentlemen, the

winner by unanimous decision, Erislandy Savon.

CHEERING So Erislandy Savon, moves into the

quarterfinals and a step closer to emulating his legendary uncle, Felix

Savon. He elimb nats Lawrence Okolie from Great Britain in the second

round of the 91kg heavyweight tournament, a unanimous

points-decision winner. He took all three rounds from all three judges,

very convincing display in his first outing of Rio 2016 for the

tournament number two seed. Lawrence Okolie eliminated but should hold

his head up high in the manner in which he's acquitted himself during

this, his first ever Olympic tournament.

Lawrence, just a step too far for you in the end. Was it what you

expected? You know it's going to be tough against the world number two?

I knew he would be hard, especially after boxing him before. I thought

what I did in preparation would be enough. Unfortunately, I got in

there and found out quite quickly that it's a different ball game,

just up a level. I believe that I'm at least in the top three or four in

the world, but unfortunately I came up against someone that was just

that bit better today. It pains me to say it but at the end of the day

I was watching him in McDonalds four years ago boxing against Anthony

Joshua and I managed to get myself to a place where I'm sharing a room

with him. I've still got a chip on my shoulder and I believe I have

what it takes to become one of the best in the world and I'm not going

to stop until I get to that status. I hope you've been able to enjoy it.

What will you take away from the experience? The progress I've made.

The same man stopped me in a round about seven weeks ago. So in not

even two months, I'm now on a big stage, in the Olympics and I managed

to extend it. Through the first round, I heard the first bell and

second, third. I wanted to win. I tried to push it in the last round,

even though I was hurt, but unfortunately it didn't work. I've

got a fantastic team around me and I'll go back to the drawing board

and keep pushing. I want to give a massive shout-out to my mum, my dad,

my friends who have come here and everyone that's been supporting me.

Unfortunately, I didn't do it today but I'm not going to stop until

obviously I get to that next level, believe me. Lawrence, all the best.

Hopefully see you in 2020. Catch you. Thanks.

Really disappointing night for Lawrence Okolie. Interestingly,

Lawrence was actually beaten by Savon, stopped in June in the

opening round. So it was always going to be tough against that

really difficult opponent. So we've got table tennis and weightlifting

on the way. Obviously we're concentrating on the swimming pool

and what a night last night. Adam Petty and Giles Carolyn both winning

gold and silver medals respectively and tonight, James is the Guy.

James Guy of England, bronze medallist, what a great swim he had.

It's James Guy of Great Britain. Come on, jamss Guy! He's got it! An

utterly brilliant swim. World Champion! Well done, Sir! James Guy,

asserting himself as the World Champion that he is. Hundreds of --

hundredths of second count massively. James guy has made it in

by 0.01 seconds. Let's hope for more medals in the pools this evening.

Let's tack to Mark Foster, who is part of our swimming team. Mark,

good evening to you. I saw on Twitter food that you tweeted

one-of-the best nights you've ever seen in the pool last night. It was

the best night I've ever seen. I first came on the scene in 1988 and

saw Adrian Moorhouse on the first night of the Olympic Games in Seoul

and saw him win gold. I've never seen gold and silver in a same

night. I don't know, it was so emotional standing next to Petty's

parents. They were with us last night. It wasn't expected how much

he would crush everybody by and how much he's rewritten by. Jaz was a

massive shock and she's up for the 800m we thought and a potential

medal but coming away with silver and for her saying she's at the

Olympic Games and how much it meant to her and she's Olympic silver

medallist. Amazing moment. Especially what she went through in

London 2012 in not making the Games. Tonight, James Guy - realistic

chances of getting a medal tonight? Yeah. There's an opportunity. We

always say if you've got a lane, you've got a chance. The 400m didn't

go to plan. He's been 3:43. It's not much off his best but you want to

come to the Olympic Games and do you best. It wasn't bad. The heats and

semis, he looked a little bit heavy and I wonder whether leading into

these championships he's been at altitude and done training and

sometimes you do a lot of work and it's like building a skyscraper. You

have huge foundations and at the top, you want to be at your peak and

sometimes you don't get it right on the right day. He looks a little bit

heavy. But another day's rest, all the training is done and he's a

phenomenal athlete, let's not forget. A World Champion last year

and the year before, winning the Commonwealth Games and the European

Championships. He's got it all to do. Sun Yang is favourite and I

truly believe, if I have to say it, he will win this evening but

potential world champions can step up. There are a lot of big names in

the pool this evening, Chad Le Clos and Michael Phelps. How much are you

looking forward to that? That's a big one. The final of the 200m fly

is tomorrow night and Chad Le Clos goes in the 200m free before the

200m fly so he'll be absolutely wiped out. Those three - him,

collect Le Clos obviously meet -- Chad Le Clos beat Michael Phelps in

the last Olympic Games, which was a huge shock and we had the moment

with Burt Le Clos and you have Laszlo Czeh, who has come second to

Michael Phelps in the Olympics games. If Michael Phelps wasn't

around, Laszlo Czeh would be a big, big name within the Olympic sport.

Those three tomorrow evening, it will be touch and go. If I was a

betting man, Michael Phelps looked a built heavy this morning. Chad

didn't show a lot. He never does. He takes hinges easy. Laszlo was

fastest this morning and I'd probably say him but unfortunately

that will not go down well with the crowd. They love Michael Phelps.

Mark, have a great evening. Thank you very much indeed.

Let's look at the key times for you. 2:21. Set your alarms or simply stay

up with us for James Guy. He sneaked into the final of the 200m

freestyle. Four gold medals to be won at 2:30 to see off Australia's

reigning World Champion -- see if Emily Seebohm from Australia can win

gold and then Emily's boyfriend Mitch Larkin is looking to make it a

special night for them in the men's event and then we shall see Chad Le

Clos, as discussed with Mark, and Michael Phelps in action in the

men's 200m butterfly semifinals at around 3:10. That's a swimming

schedule this evening. Also let's get up to date with what's happening

in the tennis. This has been fascinating over the past few days.

If you were with us, you'd have seen the Murray brothers crash out, Novak

Djokovic out, the Williams sisters out. Venus went in the women's

singles. This is Serena taking on Alize

Cornet. She's just taken the first set there but she's being pushed.

We've got a bit of weightlifting for you today because the men's 62kg

weightlifting competition is drawing to a close. Let's get up to date

with what you need to know. Men's weightlifting appeared at the first

modern Olympics and has featured at every Games since 1920. While the

women's competition only made its debut in Sydney in 2000. The aim of

weightlifting is simple - to lift the greatest weight possible. There

are two types of lift, the snatch and the clean-and-jerk. Competitors

have to compete both lifts and the winner is the person whose combined

weight total is the greatest. The snatch is a lift where the bar bell

is raised above the head to locked arms in one continuous movement. The

athlete starts in the squat position and must flip the weight so it moves

in an arc to a position above their head. When sure secure in this

position, they rise and complete the left. The clean and jerk is

performed in two stages. The bar bell is gripped, palms downwards and

moved to the shoulders. The jerk is where the athletes bends and then

extends the legs and arms to bring the bar bell to full stretch. They

must then stand still with the feet in line with the bar until they're

given the signal by three judges that the lift is God. Each

weightlifter has three attempts in both the snatch and the

clean-and-clerk with the combined total of the twoest -- two highest

successful lifts completing the result. If after three attempts,

they fail to register a correct lift, they're eliminated. Olympic

weightlifting requires more than great strength, excellent balance

and stability. Stability and speed is essential to a weightlifter's

quest for glory. It is one of the great weightlifting competitions and

what we've seen tonight - Egypt's Ahmed Saad has set a world record

but it's that man, Oscar Figueroa who leads after the snatch rounds

having lifted 142kg. He won silver in London. This is where we are

right now. It's Figueroa who leads. Then we've got Irawan and Kharki.

That looked tough. Oh... We don't see it very often but there's the

squat jerk. Why don't we see it very often?

Because it's extremely tough to do. Split jerk is the most preferred

because, if there is any movement, any forward or backward movement,

you've got a chance to adjust your body underneath the bar. With a

squat jerk, you land it or you don't. He's posted 305kg at the

moment. He's in the lead. Throws his shoulders back. Has to work really

hard to stand with the clean. Look at that. If you want to try that at

home, bake sure your hands are fairly close together, shoulder

width apart. If you can go into a squat position with a broom stick

overhead, got to keep the feet flat. OK. The Indonesian now. A chance to

put himself into first spot. Comfortable. Short and sharp.

CHEERING Really good timing on that dip and

drive. And remember that Irawan was 142kg in the snatch. So now the lead

sis at 312kg in total. Well Oscar Figueroa of Columbia has increased

his starting weight to 172kg. That's it. He has to come out on 172kg.

He's adjusted it twice. Really fast underneath the bar.

Kharki has just adjusted his as well to 173kg.

So we now knock back depending on what Irawan is going to do. Irawan

is going up as well. CHEERING

So we need to see the Colombian come out. So Irawan has gone up.

CHEERING Oscar Figueroa comes out to huge

applause. This would put him into the lead.

Clean is good. Just the hands. Nice. CHEERING

Oh, if he wins tonight, they're going to lift the roof. So he's in

the lead. The lead now sits at 314kg.

This is a tough one to call. Out of the three of the guys on top, Kharki

was probably the least impressive. These are tough weights to call

right now. Basically, Irawan needs one kilogram more than anything

Figueroa Mosouera does. But I think they've all got a little bit more so

they're probably going to play second attempt as they planned.

That will force Irawan to 175kg I would have thought.

Nah. He's got a lot to make up for. He

was 1 # 30 kg in the snatch. So he was a long way behind. But the bar

for him is set at 173kg. This will be a new personal best. Yeah, by a

couple of kilos. And a new personal best in the...

Overall total as well. This would put him into fourth. Hit

him hard. Does he have the legs to push? Come on! Come on! Get it up

there! Now does he have anything left? Shaking under the bar. That's

an adjustment. That's OK. Put it down. Put it down. He's gone.

APPLAUSE Unlucky. What you don't want to see

is him collapsing underneath the weight if he loses consciousness. He

put that down in time. He's safe. He's OK. Really tremendous effort on

the clean. So just three of them left now. We have Mosquera of

Columbia, Kharki of Kazakhstan and Irawan of Indonesia. I think that's

a halting squat. You can see his body quivering underneath.

It's a big weight for these guys. So Irawan is going to go to 175kg.

Mosquera, of course, can go at the same weight because he's the lighter

of the two. But Kharki has lifted himself to 177kg. He has a bit of

work to do, though, because he was seven kilograms behind after the

snatch. So unless he pulls out something absolutely miraculous, you

would think that the battle is between the other two. Figueroa has

played this board very well. He increased it to 174kg, then up to

175kg, which meant that Irawan has got to come out one kilogram

heavier. They've all used up their automatic changes. Irawan has gone

to 176kg. And Mosquera has gone up to 176kg. Well, he's going to force

Irawan out. He has to come out at 176kg. He doesn't have the option to

change again. So here he is. Remember this is just his second

attempt so he has another lift if needed. This represents a personal

best of one kilogram. This would put him in the lead. That

looked a struggle. No. Oh, he's under pressure now. If

you hear any cheers, that's from the Colombians. That gives their man a

bit of breathing space. And remember he is the heavier of the two

lifters. Well, I think we'll see Figueroa Mosquera coming out on the

same weight, which will force Irawan even heavier on his third and final

attempt. I'm not sure Irawan has the legs to stand it any more. So this

could be the lift for the gold medal. Certainly will confirm his

lead. So the bronze is safe with Kharki of Kazakhstan. The argument

is over silver and gold between these two men and they've both...

Well, he has two lifts left and of course one more lift for Irawan.

Waiting for quiet. So this to put himself in first place.

It's there. CHEERING

He extends his lead and he's laid the gauntlet down. Catch me if you

can! Still one attempt remaining. Still needs to stay focused just in

case one of these guys can attempt to upset the party. He looks

exhausted, absolutely drained, and I understand that feeling, when you've

dropped body weight, when you've focused for the last two hours. This

is a big ask. He's got to keep it together now for one more attempt.

Remember that Kharki was seven kilograms behind after the snatch.

And Irawan and Mosquera were equal in the snatch at 142kg, but Mosquera

is the lighter man. So Kharki now lifting at 177kg. If he nails this.

It puts him into the silver medal position. No. He's another lift left

now. It shows how much tension you have through the bar. Not much

damaged apart from his pride. Wondering if he's tweaked a lat. If

it's a lat, it would be engaged in that position, lost his grip by the

looks of it. No, he didn't. I think that's what you call stacking it.

Yeah. And he's going to get a bit of work on that lat by the looks of

things. Well, it might almost be an anticlimax to the competition here.

I think we've already seen the lift that's won the gold. In the

background, Irawan has gone up to 178kg, so he's laying down the

gauntlet to the Colombian. What will he do? I'm sure he'll go to the

same. At the moment, they're scribbling something which we can't

read from here. What does that look like? 179kg. Irawan has gone to

179kg. He doesn't need 179kg. He needs 177kg. OK, so I get it - yeah,

he's forcing Kharki back out. Irawan, I'm pretty sure, is

satisfied twt silver but by him being called and now passing it

straight back to Kharki, it forces Kharki out with no recovery. That's

a nasty move, but it may well be necessary. This puts him in with a

chance at silver. Again, didn't look confident at all.

So he'll take the bronze medal. CHEERING

I just don't think he ever had the bar high enough to get underneath

it. Total of 305kg. Well, he still finishes with a bronze medal, still

on the podium. And now... He was... It was high enough, only just,

almost afraid of sitting right in. Right now, Irawan is going to come

out and attempt 179kg. If he lifts that, he would force Mosquera to

come out and also lift 179kg. If he misses. The party begins. If he

misses, Mosquera is a gold medallist.

This to put himself in first or Mosquera does not need his final

lift. This is an Olympic record.

Olympic record attempt. And he's cleaned it. Can he stand? Yes, he

can. This will throw the gauntlet down. Oh.

CHEERING Well... We know one thing for sure

and that's that Figueroa Mosquera is the Olympic Champion. The question

is are we going to see him again? There is something at stake - an

Olympic record. So... Irawan will have to settle for

silver. He's coming out. But the Colombian is going to come out and

have a crack at the Olympic record. He's already secured the gold. This

is about pride and a place in the history books. Well, an Olympic

record, this would be, if successful. This is the one man we

believe who has the capability. Of course, the issue is it's his

Olympic record as well. He set this record back in 2012.

He's the Olympic record-holder and he's trying to break it right now

having already secured the gold medal. This is Figueroa Mosquera of

Columbia. What an exclamation point this could

be on his night. Strong clean. Come on! No. Unlucky.

But he's still the gold medallist and this massive crowd, a lot of

Colombians are going nuts for him and look at those tears of joy.

CHEERING The gold medallist in the 62kg

division CHEERING I think we're about to see a

weightlifter retire. Do you think? This happens - forgive me, I've

forgotten the name of the Greek lifter - he's leaving his shoes

there. He's retired. CHEERING

What a wonderful moment. At the age of 33... What a way to go out.

CHEERING Oscar Albero Figueroa Mosquera,

Mosquera hugging his coach and support staff. Well, if you're not

choked back home, there's something wrong with you. What a way to end

your career. Interesting to see what would have happened if he'd really

needed it for the gold, a difference in focus. Who knows? Maybe he would

have nailed it. In the end, he was just trying to raise his own Olympic

record by two kilograms. Retires in tears of joy.

Floods of tears. What a great story, Colombian Oscar Figueroa Mosquera

lifting a combined weight of 318kg to take gold. He won silver medal at

London 2012, Eko Yuli Irawan, of Indonesia, bronze medallist at 2012,

getting the silver medal. One of the big stories from that event was that

the Chinese World Champion was a solid bet for gold but there was a

whopping DNF next to him. He did not finish. Well, if you fancy being the

next Oscar Figueroa, then head to the BBC Sport "get inspired"

website, punch in your postcode, find out which club you want to go

to and you could be a gold medallist for Team GB in many years to come.

Let's bring you up to date with what's happening in the women's

singles. We've got Serena Williams on Centre Court. She's won the first

set. Cornet is serving to stay in the match at 5-2.

First task at hand here is to hold serve at 2-5. She's hoping to stay

in the second round. She's tugging at her arm there, her

shoulder. She was all over the place. Great

control from Williams in that point. She's really using all of the court.

The backhand was wide and with it, too much points -- two match points.

Oh, a double fault. Just pressing too hard.

Tried to get a better second serve in.

Third match point and she converts on number three, Williams. Speaking

of the number three, Cornet had won three in a row, but can't make it

four. It was tough. Williams going through 7-6, 6-2.

So disappointment in the doubles for Serena and Venus, but Serena powers

into the women's singles third round. So we've got a little bit of

table tennis coming up at 1:30, with Paul Drinkhall taking on a Belarus

international player, a fantastic player by the way. And then we go

into the pool for James Guy's final at around 2:21. One of the great

things about the Olympics of course - we've brought you a little bit of

weightlifting, dramatic scenes there - but also some other sports you

don't necessarily see at this time in the Olympics. So let's have a

little built of waterpolo tonight. -- little bit of waterpolo tonight.

Waterpolo has been an Olympic sport since 1900 in Paris. There are seven

players in a team, six so-called outfield players and a goalkeeper.

But they're allowed six reserves and unlimited substitutions. Substitutes

are crucial, because of the gruelling nature of the sport. The

players are not allowed to touch the bottom of the pool at any point

during a match. The best way to stay upright and ready is to keep the

legs moving alternately backwards and forwards in what's known as the

egg beater motion. There are two important lines in waterpolo - the

two metres line and the five metres line. The two metres line is two

metres from the goal and the attacking team are not allowed to

pass this line unless they have possession of the ball or the ball

is already in that area. If an attacking player is fouled within

five metres of the goal, the referee can award a penalty shot from the

five metres line. If a foul is committed further out than five

metres, a free throw is awarded. Goalkeepers are allowed to use two

hands at once but outfield players with only use one hand at a time.

The game is split into four quarters of eight minutes but although the

total playing time is 32 minutes, a game usually lasts for over an hour

because it's stopped and started regularly. Each quarter begins with

the two teams lined up on their goal lines and when the referee blows the

whistle, the teams sprint towards the ball in the centre of the pool.

A shot clock controls the time for shooting in waterpolo because, when

in possession, teams only have 30 seconds to shoot at goal.

Serbia are red hot favourites but Croatia are Olympic champions and

they're taking on Montenegro tonight.

So four quarters of eight minutes long. We'll have the swim-off to

determine who is going to get first control of the ball.

Here we go, then. The group stages of the men's waterpolo.

The first goal of the game inside the opening seconds. What a start

for Croatia. Great elevation out of us water and

off the underside of the bar. 7-5 Croatia won their opening game

against the USA. Montenegro looking for an immediate

response. The goal-scorer brings the ball away. The whistle has now gone.

Montenegro's Number 10 is going to sit out 20 seconds for a foul as he

tried to swim back towards his own goal and ceesh Croatia, who are

usually so -- Croatia, who are usually so good with the extra man,

with a chance already to double their advantage.

Radovic. Oh, hit the post. The goalkeeper

didn't get a hand to it. It will be Croatia's ball. Long-range shot from

Radovic. Two sides that like to play with a nice attacking style, seven

seconds to go on the clock but it's bounced wide of the target.

Garcia Gadea with the shot. Playing in his f fourth Olympic

Games, the 32-year-old. That's a foul on the edge of the two

metres loin. So Montenegro have a chance to level things up with the

extra player. Oh, they've spilled the ball. That's

clumsy. Frustration already for their coach. Croatia back up to a

full complement of seven. Djokovic with the steal. Croatia with a great

chance of a second goal! Oh, that's a fine save from Milos Scepanovic.

The goal-scorer was looking for his second of the match.

The ball turned over again by the Croatians back to Montenegro. It was

Jokavic with the turnover foul. Croatia leading by one early goal.

Montenegro are nicknamed the Red Sharks.

We're halfway through the first quarter.

It's about a 10-minute drive to the athletes' village to the venue for

the waterpolo. Here come Montenegro again looking

for that equaliser. Inside the 10 seconds on the shot clock.

Croatia back on the attack again. Came past Italy, Spain, Australia,

Greece and Kazakhstan in the group stages in London. Beat the USA in

the quarterfinals, Montenegro in the semis, as we said, and then Italy in

the final. Time out called here by the coach.

Clearly not happy with the way his side have started this particular

match. So a couple of minutes to - or a minute or so just to get some

instructions across. You can see the diving pool down at

the end refurbed for these Olympics after it was built for the 2007 pan

American games. Really good facilities here. There's a couple of

warm-up pools for the players and for the diving in particular there's

a warm-up area where they strap them into harnesses so they can practise

their dives outside the pool. It's very high-tech.

The last group games in the finals will be at the main Aquatic Centre,

which has seen some wonderful performances already.

Montenegro trailing Croatia here by a goal to nil.

Cyberia's number seven is swimming out, Marco -- Marko Macan. So

Montenegro with another chance. rises out of the water to fire in

the low shot for Luka Bukic and Milos Scepanovic.

Croatia have played Montenegro twice at the Olympics, won one and lost

one. This one back to all square. We thought it might be a tight game

between these two. Sood save by Pavic. -- good save by Pavic.

As I said, they've not had the best of times since Radko Ridic left

them. Lost in the quarterfinals to Hungary at this year's European

Championships. Oh, bounces just over the top. That was a well struck shot

with the ball going flying in all directions off the surface of the

water. Montenegro back on the attack once

again. Fine stop there from Pavic. Really good stop by the keeper. 196

international games to his credit. The Olympiakos goalkeeper. Named the

best goalkeeper in the 2015 World League. So he's no slouch between

the posts. Final few seconds of the first quarter.

Brguljan, out of the water quick again. He took a deflection finds

its way into the top corner and Darko Brguljan has his second goal

of the game. It's actually flicked in off Anne Geddes.

Took it from Josip Pavic's arms there and we're back to 2-2. Time

out here called by Croatia. The first call of the game.

Mario Sepulveda waits with six seconds left on the clock here for

Croatia trying to find themselves a slender lead to take into the second

quarter. Good save by the keeper. And there goes the hooter for the

end of the first quarter. We'll be back for the second quarter

later. A reminder that 2:00 in the morning, we will be crossing to yet

more pool action because we're going to the swimming pool and more

finals. All eyes on James Guy. Can he win another medal for Team GB?

That's at around 2:21 in the men's 200 m freestyle. Let's bring you up

to date with what's happening around the Olympic Games and what you can

watch right now. You can watch some beach volleyball if you like on BBC

Four. That is live. Canada against Italy. Italy won the opening match

2-0 against Austria on the opening day of the Games. If you want a

little bit of red button action tonight, how about some table

tennis. We will be keeping an eye on Paul Drinkhall into the last 16 of

the men's table tennis. First Briton to reach that stage since 1992.

Follows this match. So we'll keep you up to date that that. And also

in the women's hockey, the Netherlands are the team to beat as

the reigning Olympic champions but keep a look out for Argentina

because they could win the gold medal. They're taking on Japan.

That's also available on the red button. They are 2-0 up against

Japan. To help you make even more of the

Rio 2016 Olympic Games from boxing to badminton, hockey to handball,

we've got it all covered right here on the BBC. Alongside coverage on

appear, judging by my timeline on social media that you're loving the

water pole oi which is great for us. It's Croatia against Montenegro and

rejoin our commentator Mark Tompkins now.

I think that he is going to be beaten to it again by Croatia.

Indeed he is. Luka Bukic winning the swim-off.

Turn over ball there with the goalkeeper, Mario Sepulveda. --

Milos Scepanovic. We've only seen a couple of exclusions for 20 seconds

so far but I'm sure that that will increase as the game wears on.

Inside the final ten seconds on the clock. If the shot doesn't come in

here for ten seconds, it goes over to the other side. It has been won

by Serbia, though. Paskovic it was with the turnover.

Croatia trying to find themselves with some space there. Can't go

inside the 2-metre box unless you've got the ball. Drasko Brguljan

complaining that he was fouled by Filip Klikovac.

Turnover foul gives Montenegro the ball back once again. Good defensive

side, Croatia. To get the shot in quickly, which

they've done. Pushed away by Josip Pavic. Maro Jokovicwith the shot.

A bit of holding going on. Two very physical sides. Such a lot goes on

under the surface of the water that goes unseen by the officials. Do

their best from the lofty position to keep an eye on what they can.

No addition to the scoring so far in the second quarter. Still 2-2.

Brguljan with the steal for Croatia. Here they come back on the attack

once again. God save. The clock was ticking down

to get it but it's a fine stop from Milos Scepanovic. Tipping the ball

away one hand in. Montenegro are going to be a go there with a player

like Yanovic. Picked off again and Croatia have not made the man

advantage count. Back now with Scepanovic.

Drasko Brguljan. Four steals each so far in the first-half. Oh, great

goal. Low shot. Virtually never left the surface of the water there from

Antonio Petrovic. Having trailed in the first quarter, Montenegro lead

for the first time by 3-2 goals. Really low shot across the surface

of the water. Pavic disappointed not to have kept it out. But it was a

quality stroke though from Antonio Petrovic. A couple of changes by

Croatia. You can have the rolling substitutes during the course of the

match here. Just over three minutes left in the

first-half. Another exclusion for Montenegro. Antonio Petrovic who

just scored that goal as the map out for 20 seconds now so a chance for

Croatia to get back into this one and level. O, they've not taken the

opportunity, again. Shot going wide from Luka Loncar.

Oh, good save. That looked in all the way. Somehow clawed that away

off the line, Scepanovic. Vjekoslav Paskovic with the shot. Kept out by

the Croatia goalkeeper. Well spotted turnover again and Montenegro

winning the ball back off the Croatians with ease at the moment.

The coach is not over pleased on the sidelines but Montenegro just coming

into the game a little more now. Holding against... (WHISTLE) holding

against the Croatian number 8. Troy Andro Buslje. Tremendous taking over

from Radovic, a man who has amassed 36 medals in championships and

another coming in. Montenegro with a time-out here. I'm sure that

Vladamir Goykovic is a much happier man after seeing the side come back

from there and take the lead. Andro Buslje is the man sitting out 20

seconds and a chance for Montenegro now that they've had a chance to

increase their advantage before the halfway point.

Drasko Brguljan. Trying to pick his mum.

Inside 10 seconds. Good save again. Straight at the

goalkeeper. Pavic makes a save. Both goalkeepers have been in good form

so far in this game. Montenegro just missed out on medals in 2008 as well

as 2012. They finished fourth there as well in Beijing. They'll be a

player down again as Zdravko Radic is penalised and a time-out called

here by the Croatian coach. Just over a minute to go in the second

quarter. Sandro Sukno getting Croatia off to a great start with

the opening game. Darko Brguljan levelled. And then Antonio Petrovic

gave Montenegro their slender lead. So can Croatia make their extra

player count? Something they haven't managed to do so far in the

first-half. Yes, they can, is the answer.

Finally, a little bit of cheer in front of goal for the Croatians. A

shot beyond Scepanovic. Coming back to a tied game at 3-3.

One of the plus 30s in the Croatian line-up, Drasko Brguljan, 35 years

of age. He's one of the oldest players in the team, just a little

older than Josip Pavic, the goalkeeper. He would say that it is

experience, though. And rightly so. 143 international matches. Three

Olympic Games. This is his fourth. Final few seconds of the first-half.

No foul that time as Monday month went in search of a goal that would

give them the lead back again and just a few seconds to go here for

Croatia. And they grabbed the lead right on the stroke of the half time

interval. Sandro Sukno gets the second of the game. And it was all

down to the vision of Josip Pavic, the long ball, to pick out Sandro

Sukno. Beyond Scepanovic. And it is

Croatia's turn to turn things around too, to lead by 4-3 goals. Last shot

of the half comes in, blocked by the goalkeeper. While entertaining it

has been between these two powerhouses of waterpolo at the

halfway point in the aquat yuck centre. -- Aquatic Centre.

What a great match this is. If you want to continue watching this live,

it's available online but if you're watching us on cable or digital

satellite, it is available on your red button.

So we've got a little bit of table tennis coming up for you and we'll

also show you what happened in the women's gold medal rugby 7 it's

match after tonight's headlines. Britain's Tom Daley and Daniel

Goodfellow won Olympic bronze in the sin cronised platform. Well done to

them. And our boy, Ling won in the trap.

And Great Britain's men came fourth in the owl around after Lewis Smith

came off the horse mpth defeats to New Zealand and Canada ruined Great

Britain's chances of a medal in the women's rugby 7 it's.

And a wonderful celebration for Brazil winning the first gold of the

games with Silva in the Judo. And just take a look at these scenes.

Amaying stuff. So this is how we're lining up this evening. Plenty more

action to come. Drink in the last 16 of the men's table tennis. The first

Briton since 1992. His match starts at 1:30. In the pool, World Champion

James Guy's final at 2-21. Michael Phelps won the 19th gold medal on

day two. He meets Chad Le Clos about 40 minutes later. Just two of the

superstars of these Games. Michael Phelps, the greatest

Olympian in history. Fantastic, a new world record. Sun Yang, so good.

Oh my goodness me, Chad Le Clos won the gold. The new Olympic champion

is Missy Franklin of the USA. Manaudou has won it. This gold is

world record for Hossou. Cate Campbell gets the gold. Bronte with

there. The silver to Jazz Carlin, wonderful silver medal for great

principle. Lochete wins the silver medal. Great swimming from Emily

Seebohm of Australia. The gold medal goes to James Guy of Great Britain.

Adam Peaty takes Olympic gold for Great Britain.

Wonderful scenes there from the pool and Adam Peaty will be in the pool

with Helen Skelton shortly. But disappointment for Great Britain's

women in the Rugby 7s. They played so well in the competition but

missed out on the bronze medal which meant it was a clash between the old

rivals in the gold medal match - Australia against New Zealand.

Emilee Cherry. Big there. Manuel, they've worked the overlap, the long

pass out to McAllister who scores the first try of the gold medal

final. New Zealand take the lead. The ball comes out and Brazier.

Takes the penalty. She'll be disappointed. She is the flier in

the Australian side. Emilee Cherry, just to open up both sides.

Tonegato. No mistake this time, or is there doubt? Yeah, great finish -

what a tackle. Gets it to Quirke. Quirke delays and

delivers. Alicia Quirke - is that a deliberate knock-on? If it is, it

could be yellow. It is. It's going to be a yellow card and it's Portia

Woodman. Kwuirke fires on and it is a great chance for Australia to

score their second try and they do. And it's Pelitz who scores.

Dalton to Quirke. Emilee Cherry. Kazlik - if she gets away, nobody

will champ her and Cherry gets away and nobody will catch her. Nor

Green. Australia extend the lead in the gold medal final. What an

outstanding try. Looking down here. And Portia Woodman stamping her feet

as one very angry young man here. She knows she's cost her side dear

by giving the yellow card but what a wonderful try. And again it was

Kazlik who set the scene here. Kazlik. Kazlik, she could go on her

own and she does. It wouldn't have been a final without a contribution

from the tournament's outstanding player, Charlotte Caslick. I agree,

Eddie. I think that this woman is the number one player in this

tournament. She is the difference between these two teams. Mab

Alister. Nobody can stop her at the moment, as she goes over for New

Zealand's second try. It may come too late but McAllister

has made her mark on this final. This has been a wonderful first-ever

Olympic Rugby 7s final. Portia Woodman, one of the great

finishers, will have a say in the final. 24-15 for the moment.

Australia lead. New Zealand's third try. New Zealand score the last try.

Head down. Knows that it's a losing course for New Zealand. They have

lost to Australia in the final by 24-17.

So many congratulations to Australia and the men get under way tomorrow

in the first match of the men's competition taking on France. Team

GB take on Canada just a few moments later and then it will be all eyes

on New Zealand. Of course, Sonny Bill Williams, who was a Rugby World

Cup winner in 2015 in the 15-man game. So all eyes on Sonny Bill

Williams. So the next destination is the pool because we've got another

busy night of swimming action. We're heading to the Olympic Aquatic

Stadium, a gorgeous stadium designed by a Rio artist. Let's join Helen.

Have you recovered from last night? We have just about peeled ourselves

off from the ceiling but we're going to hang on to Becky because we've

seen Michael Phelps's baby boy, Boomer, here to support his dad. He

begins his quest to get that title from Chad Le Clos so that was there.

So cute! Oh! And there's my little one! So cute. Baby Boomer is so cute

and baby Boomer might have something to celebrate later. All of the big

names in the pool. Katie Ledecky, Chad Le Clos. But let's talk about

our guys. James Guy. World Champion in the final he's going for tonight.

How would you rate his chances? He scrapes in eighth and he is in an

outside line but I don't think that that is bad for James. He sticks to

his own race plan and outside, you know, anything can happen. If you

have a lane, anything can happen. So I think that he has looked a little

bit tired this meet. Not his usual self. He's not done personal best

times here. So I'd love to see him get back down to his personal best.

Even if he doesn't medal, James would be happy if he comes out

having done a strong time. Is he one of the guys, though, that likes to

be the underdog? Because at the World Championships last year, he

kind of burst on to the scene, took a gold and took a silver as and as

we say, a lot of talk about him here and it hasn't come off for him but

maybe tonight is the night? I think he's a born racer and we've seen

that time and time again with James he's a great racer. And to be

honest, I think for him, this amazing opportunity has already had

an Olympic final now. It might have been a little bit of that. Whereas

he's swimming into the meet and having seen Adam and Jazz last

night, that surely has got to have lifted him. Because we talked about

Adam Peaty and the positive effect that his medal and Jazz Carlin's

medal will have had on the team, probably woke them all up here. But

you know, that's definitely a good thing because Siobhan O'Connor said

after the heats this morning that it has had a positive effect on the

group and they want to carry that on. What will it do for Hanna and

Siobhan? Hannah made it through to 12th but at the same time, this is

not Hannah's main event. It's her birthday and she said that it is a

bonus event. Whereas Siobhan, she looked fantastic. So controlled and

smooth. She didn't look like she had to push it too hard. Obviously

Hasszou was in there. They're in separate semifinals. So it will be

interesting tonight to see what time Siobhan can go and I hope that she

breaks the British record. . She seemed so relacked when she spoke to

Sharon this morning so there's nothing to say she won't do it, is

there. So plenty to look forward to in the pool. British interest, I

hope that you don't mind me calling you Jase! A bit familiar there. All

of the big names are out. Go for a cuddle with baby Boomer! Oh. We'll

be back with you shortly but let's spin around the Olympic venues to

show you what's happening and all available for you at the touch of a

button. A lot of people contacting me last night saying they're loving

the beach volleyball. That's available on BBC Four if you fancy a

little bit of Italy against Canada. That's on BBC Four. But weed' love

it if you stayed with us here on BBC One here. We have a little bit of

hockey for you as well. That is on the red button. It's Argentina

taking on Japan. However, if tennis is your thing and you want a bit of

Australia Japan, Kei Nishikori taking on John Millman. That's on

Centre Court available online. Novak Djokovic, who we saw yesterday

evening go out in the singles is back on court on court number one

representing Serbia in the doubles. And we have been watching here on

BBC One the waterpolo. Croatia taking on Montenegro. We left it at

half time. Croatia now leading Montenegro by 5-4. Although I think

they've just scored again. That's available online too. Get inspired

we're passing the baton over to you. Just get up, get inspired and get

active. Well, I just wonder how many people woke up this morning in UK

and heard the news about Adam Peaty. Got out the swimming goggles and the

bathers and dived into the pool. Let's remind ourselves of the four

men who have won gold in the pool. David Wilkie is superb. And it's a

new world record. David Wilkie! He's come back marvellously. And it's a

good medal for Duncan Goodhew. And Moorehouse has won! This is

quite extraordinary. There's oceans of clear blue water between Adam

Peaty and the rest of the world. Absolutely fantastic. Adam Peaty

takes Olympic gold for Britain by an absolute street. Olympic champion,

gold medal Adam Peaty of Great Britain. A night that will live long

in the memory. We're concentrating this evening on the swimming finals.

Back to the pool shortly. James Guy's final comes up at 2:21. Could

we be looking at another medal for Team GB? Let's bring you up to date

with what happened in the gymnastics today.

Where are we going to go with this? Where are we going to put the money?

It can go anywhere? Now he needs a big dismount. Beautiful there full

twist. David Valeski from the pummell

horse. Russia going good. That was a great routine. Oh, dear, things not

going to plan for Japan. Such an exciting young gymnast. Six-star

value. It's going to be hard. It's going to be high and wow, it was so

well landed as well. That was right on the top of his game. These guys

are making these hugely difficult vaults look so simple. Alex Nador,

the 25-year-old. Fourth highest qualifier on vault as a team for the

US, what can they do here? Well, a super controlled double in the pike

position. USA being USA, they're not about to sit down and roll over.

This man, regarded as the finest gymnast on the planet. Absolute

style. Beautiful, full of grit all the way through. That's how you land

the P-bar routine, isn't it! Max Whitlock on the high bar working on

all six bits of apparatus doing everything he can to get Great

Britain the Olympic medal. He comes in on the double twist and the

double straight. Three excellent bar routines from the British lads.

Yeah, China are on the way. Japan lead. Russia in second. China,

they're in third. Great Britain in fourth. Oh! How is that possible? I

think that that was four! Yes, it was four. Lovely lift. Super triple

twist! World silver medallist. Lewis, we need you now! Oh! What a

shame. And today it just wasn't his day. As it stands at the moment,

it's Japan, China, Great Britain. Where are Russia going to finish?

All eyes here on the score board. It's a silver medal for the

Russians. So Japan get a gold medal. So well done to Japan.

Disappointment for Team GB in the men's final but obviously tomorrow

we will concentrate on the women's gymnastics finals. All eyes surely

on the American team especially bile bile bile. -- Simone Biles. All day,

we've been talking about Adam Peaty there and Jazz Carlin who missed out

on London 2012. We've been learning all about their training regimes and

we look at the four-year training sacrifice.

Four years, 208 weeks. 126 million, 144,000 seconds. That is the time

period, the defining time period that articulates the both the per-I

will and the privilege of being an -- peril and the privilege of being

an elimpian. The thing that got me into cycling was the dream of going

to the Olympic Games and competing for Britain. Everything that you do,

everything is to train for the Olympics and compete there. It is

going to be challenging but this is what we live for. This creates the

stakes. One tiny error on the grand stage and you have to wait four

years to correct it. The defending champion thrown out

for two false starts. Sometimes you never get a chance to correct it. I

never actually hit the wall that we talk about in the marathon but I hit

it with a bang in Athens. It took a lot of time to mentally and

physically get back because I felt like I let a lot of people down. You

get one shot in four years and you always think this is the last chance

to win Olympic gold. You can be introduced for the rest of your life

as an Olympian and that means something to the world.

Fundamentally, the Olympic Games isn't about what happens in the

spotlight, it's the stuff that we never see. The training bases, the

altitude camps. The 5:30 am on a frosty morning in February where all

you really want to do is stay in bed. If you have a life when you're

preparing for the Olympics, then you're not do it right. It's so hard

to train and go up and down that black line 400 times in one day.

Having to get up savagely early every morning and flog ourselves up

and down the lake and miss weekends. These are not things that I

masochistly enjoy. This is the price of success. What looks like an awful

way to live your life for us is actually normal. That routine is

part of who they are, part of how they live their life and therefore,

you just get on with it. Once you get that feeling, being on the

podium, you know, it's just like... You wake up and you're like, I'm not

tired, I'm going for a run. I have to go for a run You have to sustain

your motivation for four years. You have to make sacrifices for four

years. You have to make strangers of your family for four years. My life

has, essentially, been overtaken by a long jumper. Greg missed our first

scan. Greg almost missed our child's first birthday. He does mills out on

a lot and I think that it is tough for him because being a dad is more

important than being an athlete to him. As a mum, it's hard to fully

switch off from thinking about your child and you know, if I didn't put

100% in and was just wasting time, it would just be awful. I need to

know that I'm doing this for really good reasons and that he's going to

be able to look back and be like - wow, look at what my mum did. When

you get on to the stage itself, the psychological danger flips. The

problem now is not motivation, but fear. You want to perform so much

that you become paranoid that you won't. I think the key to being

successful in that moment is being able to manage your emotions, to be

able to maintain a sense of calm and being present. Now has to look like

I know what I'm doing. Now has to look like I'm in control. The thing

I love the most is just that kind of adrenaline. Like, I love the fact

that when I walk into the velodrome, I realise that this is happening and

just that kind of emotional feeling that I get and I just know that I'm

so ready for that moment. There is an essential cruelty in sport. The

juc apposition of the dreams, the sack -- juxtaposition of the dreams

and the sacrifices and the top of a podium reserved for just one.

There's a cruelty too, that after an epic journey measured in years,

success and failure are measured in fractions. 1.8 seconds is how long

it takes to do one dive. So all six of my dives are over faster than

Usain Bolt's race. It's not just starting at the bottom and then

suddenly finding yourself at the top of the podium. It takes so many set

backs and injuries and moments where you question whether you even want

to continue doing your sport to actually get you to that point and

that's what makes it so much sweeter when you actually do achieve it.

Ultimately, it's how we deal with the set backs and the challenges.

How we deal with the consequences of losing and winning that make us who

we are. Matthew Said reporting there who

represented Great Britain in table tennis in 1992 in Barcelona and the

2000 Olympic Games in Sydney. Perfectly setting up more live sport

for you. It's been a super day for Paul Drinkhall. These are live

pictures, becoming only the third Briton to reach the last 16 in the

Olympic table tennis. 26 years old from Middlesbrough. 4-2 to match

Desmond Dennis in 1992 and Carl Preen. He's booked a place against

that man, Vladamir Samsonov, of bell arules. We have live swimming coming

up but first let's bring you to commentary from Don Parker.

Going around the top there. Drinkhall was the senior member of

the Great Britain team who earlier in the year at the team

championships in malailsia, won a bronze medal. First time for over --

Malaysia, won a bronze medal. First time for over 20 years that they got

there and it was a fine performance. Drinkhall contributing significantly

along with Liam Pitchford and Sam Walker.

Drinkhall was an outstanding junior. Won the European cadet

championships, the under 14 and under 18 age groups. Samsonov just

winning three consecutive points. So consistent is Samsonov. Once he

forces his opponent away from the table, doesn't make many mistakes.

Going to put him under pressure there. Just mistiming the backhand

top spin. Edge ball! A little bit of good

fortune for Britain's Paul Drinkhall. Halfway stage of this

first game. It's five points each. You can see there how the ball went

upwards. That demonstrates that it has, in fact, caught the edge of the

table rather than the side of the table. Did all of the hard work

there did Paul Drinkhall. He played the excellent backhand down the line

and set up the forehand top spin, just slightly mistimed it. Tactics

were good. Unfortunately, the execution not quite as good. So

Samsonov now having been 4-0 down took a 6-5 lead but now six points

each. Good backhand top spin from Drinkhall. Brushed up the top of the

ball. Excessive top spin. And again, the players taking the opportunity

both of them to towel down as they can every six points.

That was a great backhand block from Samsonov. Good top spin from Paul

Drinkhall. Vladamir Samsonov was equal to it with the backhand. Not

only did he block, but he put a little bit of elbow and wrist into

the shots so it came back with speed. Oh, that's a great flick.

Samsonov renowned for his delicate touch over the table. Paul Drinkhall

there, a well placed four hand flick right in the corner of the table.

Perfect placement. Good top spins from Samsonov.

Drinkhall putting Samsonov under pressure, but Samsonov was equal to

it. He managed to spin the ball back each time. And the player from

Belarus now with a one-point lead. Top spin to top spin rally and it

was Britain's Paul Drinkhall who came out on top. Eight points each.

Samsonov with his two serves to come. Born in Minsk in Belarus.

Currently lives in Grenada in Spain. Obviously likes the sun, wife and

two boys. Two game points for Vladamir

Samsonov. Paul Drinkhall just taking his time. He has his two serves to

come. Still in with a good chance. But of course, he has to take both

points with his serves. First one coming up.

Oh uc well done Paul Drinkhall. A great rally. Samsonov spinning the

ball back from away from the table. Drinkhall waited for the opportunity

and then he brought one down the line. Good tactics. That's one out

of one. Can he take the second point with the serve to take this game to

ten points each? Taking his time. The serve drifted

long. Samsonov is in with the forehand top spin. And Vladamir

Samsonov takes the first time 11-9. See here, the serve just drifting

long. Samsonov is able to let the ball come over the edge of the

table. He can then play a stronger top spin, exactly what he does.

Pumples the air with delight. -- punches the air with delight. And

the players now with their coaches. They have one minute to take onboard

advice. 11-9 to Vladamir Samsonov of Belarus. He wins the first game

against Paul Drinkhall of Great Britain. Alan Cook in the corner

there. Done a wonderful job with Team GB. The players have performed

some of their best table tennis in 2016. Bronze medal at the World Teen

Championships. Paul Drinkhall, Frank Pritchard and Sam Walker and Alan

Cook in the corner working with them, helping them. And now here at

the Olympics, Paul Drinkhall playing for a place in the quarterfinal.

He's beaten two players ranked above him already. He's having a great

tournament but he's lost the first game 11-9. Both players back at the

table. Second game, Paul Drinkhall of Team

GB to serve. Great rally. Both players playing on

the diaganol. Drinkhall playing the forehand from the backhand side.

A little bit of good fortune there for Drinkhall. The ball catches the

top of it and trickles over very quick to raise his arm. Acknowledges

his good fortune. And one thing is for sure - Vladamir Samsonov won't

let it scup set him. He'll just be -- upset him. He'll be folk upsed on

this. That's a God backhand down the line. Drink was moving down there to

play a forehand. Just has to readjust. But he just can't quite

get across. Drink playing with good power there.

Putting Samsonov under pressure. Again, it's Drinkhall who makes the

better start. He led 4-0 in the first game. He leads 3-1 in the

second game. Can he keep it going? That is a wonderful return of

service. Long fast push out wide to Drinkhall's forehand. That was the

last thing that Drinkhall was expecting. Wonderful tactics.

Three points each. Two very good returns of service there from

Vladamir Samsonov. Oh, what a great countertop spin

from Drinkhall. He anticipated the top spin coming down the line. He's

exposed himself. Samsonov goes for it. Look at that top spin. Side spin

as well. The ball bending away from Vladamir Samsonov.

Interesting tactics there from Samsonov. He forced Drinkhall away

from the table but he didn't go for the rocket. He just played

consistent top spins. Kept the initiative. Kept Paul Drinkhall away

from the table. Drinkhall did really well to return the top spins. But

clever tactical play from the 40-year-old from bell arules.

Consistent top spins win the points for Samsonov.

Time out called by Paul Drinkhall. Each player is entitled to one time

out in the match. It's normally used when a player feels that his

opponent has got the momentum. Samsonov has won the last three

points. And of course, if Drinkhall goes 2-0 down, it's a mountain to

climb against the number 7 seed. So I think that a good call by Great

Britain's Paul Drinkhall. He'll be hoping to compose himself. He'll be

hoping that the break in play takes the momentum away from Vladamir

Samsonov. Alan Cook played in the first ever Olympic Games when table

tennis made its debut in Seoul in 1988. Had a good tournament in those

days and it was eight groups of eight. The top two going through.

Alan Cook finished third in the group. Otherwise, he would have

qualified for the last 16 when it became the knock-out stage. Here,

it's been knock-out from the word "go". You lose your first game and

you're out of the tournament. So good with the control, Vladamir

Samsonov. Glides around the table. Very God hand. Very good feeling. --

very good hand. Very good feeling. He's able to delicately touch the

ball over the net which requires very fine touch skills. And then

he's able to play with an enormous amount of power. Just overhits that

forehand top spin down the line. Always more difficult to go down the

line than it is to go across the table. The target is that little bit

shorter. Drinkhall now with his two serves to

come. Fishing a little bit away from the

table, scrambling the ball back. Samsonov took the initiative, forced

Drinkhall away from the table. Drinkhall doing everything he

possibly can to get back into the rally, but he's now three points

adrift. What a backhand down the line. This really is throwing

caution to the wind. Just watch the backhand now. Samsonov didn't even

attempt to go for the ball. He couldn't believe the speed at which

that rocketed down the line. Samsonov edging his way towards 11

points. Paul Drinkhall needs this point.

And he was unlucky there. It was a good return of serve. A long, fast

push into Samsonov's backhand. He got him with the strong topspin but

the control of the 40-year-old, Vladimir Samsonov, is quite amazing.

Four game points for the 40-year-old from Belarus. This time the topspin

down the line off the table. Samsonov takes the second game 11-6

and now leads by two games to nil. Paul Drinkhall up against it in this

one against Vladimir Samsonov. Let me remind you that Samsonov is

ranked number nine in the world. The Belorussian is one of the few

players who can topple the best Chinese players in the world. This

match continues on the red button. If you want to continue watching

that, it's on the red button. Let's go live to the big night of swimming

finals. Lots to look forward to in the pool

this evening. James Guy is chasing a medal but let's get into into the

semifinal of the women's 200m free. Thank you, Helen. That black hat two

lanes from the front of your shot there is Missy Franklin of the USA.

She won four gold medals in 2012 and she's only in lane seven. Fastest

qualifier, McKeon of Australia in four. Two Chinese women, including a

14-year-old, in lane 6. Beauden Barrett is in lane two for

Australia. Bronze medallist here. -- Bronte Campbell.

These women have to be careful because the second semifinals are

absolutely stacked. I wouldn't be surprised if all three medals come

from the second semi. This is the first one and a good start from lane

four. This afternoon it was McKeon and

Bonnet. Bronte Barratt and Missy Franklin have some history here.

Barrett is in the top three but it looks like McKeon, the only woman

under 27 for the first 50m and very strong, beautiful, long stroke from

McKeon. The gold medallist there is the world record-setter and the

Aussie women's freestyle, well, originally they called it the

Australian crawl when they first named it. They've dominated. Outside

world record, it's a fast first 50 for them but not a world record

here, Bonnet and Barrett taking the lead.

This is how Charlotte Bonnet swam the heat. She was out fast to 100m

and the rest of the field caught her up. This is interesting. At the top

of the shot there - 4, 3, 2, all of them starting to push the pace and

it looks like maybe in three at the moment, Shen of China, sixth in the

World Championships and leading. It's Bronte Barratt first. No, it's

Shen first, Barrett second and now the charge is going to come and it

looks like it's at the top of the picture. Absolutely. It's lane

three, Duo Shen, the 19-year-old from China coming strongly true.

It's all the way one to five. They've dropped lane six here so

Missy Franklin in seven will struggle to make the final. Shen of

China looks like going very well inside the last five metres. She may

win the first semifinal of the women's 200m free. She does. 1:56.0.

It's quick but not that quick. McKeon second, Bonnet third and

Missy Franklin eighth. I think she's going to struggle. A

great swim from Shen, Andy, the 19-year-old Chinese lady. Very

strong down that third 50m. There we see the start from where we're

commentating here. You can see that view to the side. Coming down the

first length... It was Shen. Actually it was Ai, the Chinese with

the black cap on. And here in a line. Well, this was a slower of the

two semifinals. The fastest through in the world in the next semifinals

to very important to get a top three place, I think. Shen had a quick

look over when she touched the wall. Two halves in the first semifinal.

Shen, McKeon, Bonnet and Barrett all 1.56.5 and then it goes to 1:57.3. I

feel like I need to properly well quom you to the fool pour -- pool

for this evening's finals. Lots to look forward to tonight. James Guy

going for a medal. We've got Siobhan-Marie O'Connor and Hannah

Miley going in semifinals but right now we're looking at superstars from

elsewhere around the globe. Missy Franklin, four gold medals in

London. Her four-year cycle hasn't been brilliant, not great form this

year. What's going on? She seems to have gone off the boil. In 11, 12

and 13, she was the new star, if you like, she was like Katie Ledecky

now. I know she had an injury. She started university. I would say to

her leave school. She's had a lot of distractions in her life. She came

out and sometimes - you've got to remember being at the top for a long

period of time takes a lot out of you physically and mentally. She's

out of sorts. I feel like she's the kind of girl who has been asked to

do a lot g to a lot of functions, charities, hospitals and by all

accounts she does everything. If we're talking about the old guard as

it were, let's talk about Pellegrini in the next semifinal. Ledecky and

Sjostrom, we've talked a lot about them, what about Pellegrini. Can she

get up amongst the medals? The great thing for Pellegrini is she's been

at the top of her game for so long. It's her world record. She got a

silver at the World Championships last year. She's Olympic Champion

from 2008. She is one to watch, definitely. I'm so excited about

Katie Ledecky, as I just think we saw her in the 4 x 100m freestyle on

the first day where she did a fantastic 100m split. She broke the

world record in the 400m. Personally, I think Katie is the

threat here but Pellegrini wants to be on the podium so she'll be

fighting for a place. But this isn't Katie's favourite event is it, Katie

Ledecky, but she's aiming to make history. Four gold medals, yeah!

Least favourite. I think she'll enjoy this a bit more. I think you

do when it's not your main event, not as much pressure. No-one expects

her to get the gold as much as they do in the 400m and 800m so the

pressure's off her a little bit and I think she uses it as a bit of fun.

I think she wants the four gold medals. She's obviously got one

silver and one gold. She'll want to add to that. This event is the

challenge for her. Because the four in the bag, smashed the world

record, she's going to win the 800m freestyle. It's in the bag. This is

the real challenge and champions like chalings. It's worth pointing

out that -- challenges. It's worth pointing out that this really feels

like a special place at the moment. We're seeing the who's who of the

women out there. We're surrounded by the families of champions. The

Phelps family are down here. We're going to lose Beccy in a minute and

Chad Le Clos over there. You caught up with the Phelps clan. How are

they feeling? They're loving it. I jokingly said, "Will this be

Michael's last experience?" And I said in 2020 he'll be 38 and they're

like, "Oh, my God, he's got more time!" Boomer won't remember it but

you're recording it for playback. There's hundreds of photographers

lining up to catch a glimpse of the Phelps clan. Now it's time for the

second semifinal. Andy and Adrian, over to you.

Well, the second semifinal is absolutely stacked, Helen. The

fastest qualifier is Katie Ledecky of the USA but we've got the world

record-holder in Federica Pellegrini. Can the great Ledecky

win? World Champion in four. Sarah Sjostrom, fastest in the world this

year. But here is Federica Pellegrini, the Olympic Champion

from 2008, the world record-holder. She set the world record six times

in this event. 1:52.98 is the world record. It's a phenomenal win, isn't

it? Sarah Sjostrom walking out here, one of two swimmers who already have

a gold medal at these Olympics and the pressure therefore is off.

Sjostrom a brilliant sprinter. And Katie Ledecky, well, might not be

her main event, the one we know her for, but she swam a phenomenal 100m

freestyle, sub-53 in the American relay. I think she'll be strong in

the 200m. What a line-up. Three world record-holders, the 200m

freestyle world record-holder, this event, there in shot, Pellegrini.

There's the 400m, 800m and 1,500m world record-holder, Katie Ledecky

and in five, Sarah Sjostrom of Sweden. There she is. The world

record-holder on the 1,500m fly. What a line-up. Tomorrow's final is

going to be just fireworks. A slightly slower first semifinal

tonight so this could be very interesting.

Absolutely. We could see five of these swimmers get through. There is

Pellegrini. Sorry, Heemskerk. She's the one -

it's easy when they turn to the shied because the name is on the

hat. She's not slow. She's in lane eight but she's the European silver

medallist. Look out. Take your marks...

Semifinal number two, the faster very much of the two semifinals and,

in the centre lanes, three, four, five and six, Pellegrini, Ledecky,

Sjostrom and Coleman. Well, the two Swedes next to each other with the

yellow caps on and Coleman having a good dive and the first couple of

strokes out of the surface and you can't split the swimmers right now.

Ledecky and Sjostrom contributed last night to such a significant

final session for me. Three swimmers broke the world records in their

events. A dramatic night of swimming. To come back and battle it

out for the 200m. Look at Coleman nearest to us, very steady, Andy.

Look at Ledecky in the centre. She's hammering down the first 100m. She's

not a sprinter. World record-holder on the 400m, 800m and 1,500m

freestyle. She's worked really hard. I don't think Sjostrom worked quite

as hard. She looks good now in the yellow hat in the leading group.

Pellegrini renowned - back cap, three from the top - renowned for

coming back strongly on the second 100m. So the two black caps, keep an

eye on her. It's the three we thought who should battle it out for

the medals tomorrow. A lot quicker than the first semifinal.

This is absolutely fascinating. Sarah Sjostrom breathing away from

Katie Ledecky in the black hat. And Sjostrom is trying to go away. This

is interesting. They don't need to go this fast. I think they're just

testing each other and Ledecky is hammering, absolutely hammering down

the last 50m. I think Sjostrom will get the touch. She does. Very close

indeed. And look at that - 1:54 much.6 wins it and Sjostrom and

Ledecky have had a private battle. Look. She's looking at the clock

going, "I think so..." I agree. That was significant. Ledecky didn't want

to lose that. Sjostrom a lot stronger in the last ten metres than

Ledecky. Really interesting, you know. Sjostrom didn't swim the 200m

free at the World Championships last year. She did the Swedish relay. Led

off and did a faster time than Ledecky's individual win. And you're

right, private battles between these two not known necessarily for the

200m free. Ledecky going in quicker than Sjostrom but the power and the

strength came from Sjostrom, didn't it, at the end? Well, it certainly

did. I'm not a professional face-reader but that smile, that

cheeky smile that sort of said, "I did it! I was head to head and I won

that battle," is one up to Sjostrom. Only matters to make the final. And

a nice glide-in. Very nice. That's a nice tattoo, isn't it? On the right

forearm. I think Coleman qualified as well in

fifth place. We'll see that shortly. The two swids having a great

semifinal. So the second semifinal was quick.

Swedes having a great semifinal. So the second semifinal was quick.

Pellegrini will certainly be in the final tomorrow night. The first four

qualify. Very clear definition. The first

four and then there's a split. A second gap between fourth and

fifth. So Sjostrom fastest, Ledecky second, Pellegrini, all from the

final heat. What a final that's going to be tomorrow night. Granted,

it's only a semifinal but it's unusual for Katie Ledecky to touch

the wall second. What effect will that have on her head? She's never

lost a race at a major meet. She won't have liked that. It was quite

strange that over the last 25m that Sarah swam away from her. You would

think Katie would have the back end and the endurance and, um, yeah, I

think that was a little bit of a shock to us all. She could be

playing games there. It's kind of fascinating in a sense that you've

got Pellegrini as the pure 200m freestyler, world record--holder.

Sjostrom comes from butterfly and she's got a turn of speed at the end

and I think she played a little bit. We both thought - I thought that

Ledecky would bring her back in because Ledecky is an absolute

animal. She's got so much back end. It's a completely different race.

That's a fascinating one from tomorrow night. And a cheeky smile

from Sarah Sjostrom said game on. Right, Jason?

Helen, thank you very much indeed. We'll be back with you shortly.

Let's get up to date with the table tennis. Paul Drinkhall is in his

last-16 match against Vladimir Samsonov from Belarus, the world

number nine in complete control of this match. He's three games up.

That's available on the red button. Press red now if you want to

continue with the live table tennis. And, as for the tennis, this

happened a short time ago. This is Novak Djokovic, representing Serbia,

he was beatin last night by Juan Martin del Potro in the men's

singles and he's out of the men's doubles. They've lost to Brazil.

This is what's happening on Centre Court right now. Nishikori is a set

up, 2-1 up in the second set, and looking good. And that fellow looks

really tired, doesn't he? If you want that, that's available online.

Let's go back to Helen in the pool. Right, James Guy is World Champion

in the 200m freestyle. Tonight he's chasing a medal in that very event.

Out of the pool, he likes to do something not a swimmers get stuck

into. Steve Perry has been finding out more.

It's certainly unusual for Olympic athletes, innit, to be engaged in

fishing? I've been fishing for years and I absolutely love it, obsessed.

It's a great way to shut down and have something completely different.

It's not all about pace. It's about what bait you use, what float you

use. It's a good way to calm down, relax and just enjoy myself.

This is going to be really close. James Guy in the centre! The gold

medal goes to James Guy. World Champion, 200m freestyle! Well done,

Sir! The 200m free is just to go out and have fun. I did that and it paid

off. To get another medal there was pretty special.

Success for me, really, would be to go in, get everything and get a PB.

That would be medal territory. It would be nice to get a medal

obviously, yeah. To do Team GB proud and obviously my family as well,

they've done so much for me, it would be nice to repay that to them.

It's a big dogfight at the finish and who can get their hand on the

wall first. I'll try my best. He trains in the south but he's a

proud northerner. We're all behind you, James! Good luck. Go do your

thing. Andrew, Adrian. Take it away.

Controversial character, Sun Yang, almost setting himself up as the

arch villain in world swimming. But I have to say the winner could come

from absolutely anywhere. James Guy of Great Britain will be closest to

us, the World Champion on this, the 200m freestyle. He's in eight. Right

at the top will be Chad Le Clos. Ade, what's going to happen? They're

going to swim four lengths very quickly. Three people get medals.

You know what? I think James Guy... I'm not sure. Outside... He's got to

get out there. He's got to be amongst it. I'd like to see 1 and 8

go out quicker. Chad will do in lane 1. I want James Guy amongst it

early. I don't want him to fight back on the last 100m. We saw on the

piece of film we just saw, he came back strongly against Sun Yang but

he's got to swim it a bit differently from lane eight down

nearest to us. With a bit of luck, they'll be

watching each other on the inside and the middle and they won't see

James Guy. There's the world record-holder in six, Biederman, the

red hat of James Guy, the World Champion. Big breath.

The time of the men's 200m freestyle at the Olympic Games in Rio de

Janeiro and a fantastic start on the right-hand side of your shot. Look

at that! He's a body length up after about 15m. Chad's going for it, I

would say. Chad now a body length ahead. There's only way he's going

to swim this race. He's going to go, try and hold it and hang in there

and it's whether the rest of them can catch him. James Guy is still

going well but the rest of the field is overtaking him. Still going well

is Chad Le Clos. Back Yang gets the gold. The silver, a brilliant brave

silver medal for Chad Le Clos of South Africa. Goodness me, Co in, or

Dwyer the bronze and James Guy just touched out in fourth position. Oh,

no! But, what, 17, 16 hundredths of a second. Oh, so close to a bronze.
