:00:00. > :00:00.huge step onto the Olympic stage for this squad, they only came together

:00:07. > :00:10.in May, made up of a couple of Welshmen, two Scottish, and the rest

:00:11. > :00:15.coming from England. A big challenge, they finished seventh in

:00:16. > :00:20.the World Series rankings, let's see how they get on in their first match

:00:21. > :00:39.against Kenya. Let's go over to Andy Butler and Sir Clive Woodward.

:00:40. > :00:47.The captain has to go back. Complaints from deep within their

:00:48. > :00:57.own 22. James Davis. He is from Wales. He takes it out of the 22.

:00:58. > :01:02.Knock-on, advantageous Great Britain.

:01:03. > :01:14.Phil Burgess. Last in possession. Penalty to Great Britain. It does

:01:15. > :01:19.not seem quite as nervous as the start that the women media study

:01:20. > :01:22.will stop good start from Great Britain but this is a difficult

:01:23. > :01:31.fixture. The Kenyan team have prepared well. This is a tough,

:01:32. > :01:41.physical Kenyan team. It is a very hot day. It will suit them. On

:01:42. > :01:48.Pippa, written with the advantage, on the field, can you are very

:01:49. > :01:58.powerful. Good work by Dan Norton. Great speed and what a start. Great

:01:59. > :02:05.set play. What I love about him, he slows down. The Steve Bird is on and

:02:06. > :02:16.goes around his man. This is a tricky fixture for Team GB. Great

:02:17. > :02:23.start for him. There was irrelevant. Slow, slow and then Dan Norton went

:02:24. > :02:29.for the afterburners. It settle the nerves. Well set up by Captain Tom

:02:30. > :02:35.Mitchell who is the key man in this British team. Also Dan Bibby was

:02:36. > :02:42.wonderful with his pass. The conversion by Tom Mitchell, just

:02:43. > :02:51.missing. Great Britain or on their way. Oscar Ouma will be disappointed

:02:52. > :02:57.about missing that tackle but he is up against one of the fastest

:02:58. > :03:02.players in this team. The team that scores restarts. One of the slight

:03:03. > :03:07.abbreviations. Between the 15 aside version of the game and the seven

:03:08. > :03:12.aside version of the game. That is well placed and well tapped down by

:03:13. > :03:17.James Rodwell. The ball has gone loose, knock-on. Kenny will have

:03:18. > :03:30.they put in. Can you almost have a unique style. -- Ken ya.

:03:31. > :03:39.It was a great restart from Mitchell. It was a shame about the

:03:40. > :03:40.knock-on. It is the first time that Kenya have got the ball and let us

:03:41. > :03:54.see how we do in the scrum. That is the physical style of Kenya.

:03:55. > :04:16.Dan Bibby steals it. It is a spirit for the length of

:04:17. > :04:23.Phil Burgess. And a great change of pace. The handoff and what a finish.

:04:24. > :04:28.Rucked back by Kenya and coming forward, Britain are two tries to do

:04:29. > :04:35.good. Great pace shown by Phil Burgess. We can all see the Kenyan

:04:36. > :04:40.style of God but one. Rodwell with simple hands. And it is real pace

:04:41. > :04:45.from Phil Burgess, one of the forwards. It is the pace of the

:04:46. > :04:51.forwards that is impressive. Real athletes with real pace and a

:04:52. > :04:55.forward pack. Good start for Great Britain and they will get

:04:56. > :04:58.confidence. This is a dangerous Kenyan team. You have to tackle them

:04:59. > :05:11.as they will run at you. Phil Burgess, back in line. James

:05:12. > :05:19.Rodwell on the far touchline is the man who calls the restarts. And he

:05:20. > :05:22.has called it upon himself on the right-hand side. Again he gets his

:05:23. > :05:27.fingers to it. Dan Bibby knocks it on. Can you have got the advantage.

:05:28. > :05:59.-- Kenya have the advantage. This is Mark Bennett, the Scotsman.

:06:00. > :06:05.Mitchell out wide to Dan Bibby. The pass went backwards, no trouble, try

:06:06. > :06:10.number three. Dan Bibby. What you did not see was the wonderful pass

:06:11. > :06:17.from Mitchell, he was cleaned out by the captain of Kenya. He is holding

:06:18. > :06:25.himself. He is cleaned out. We just missed it off-screen. Very

:06:26. > :06:34.impressive start by Team GB. These are physical men. Just looking at

:06:35. > :06:41.Tom Mitchell, he's letting Dan Bibby take the conversion. He was struck

:06:42. > :06:55.right on the rib cage. It was a big hit. I think it was Andrew the

:06:56. > :06:58.captain. The turnover has been key. Mitchell is having a word with the

:06:59. > :07:12.referee about that hit. He's not happy about that. REFEREE: Just be

:07:13. > :07:16.quick next time. I think he was arguing a technical point rather

:07:17. > :07:23.than the state of his ribs. That is good, he is fit to go. Two great

:07:24. > :07:38.kick-offs so far. Rodwell has came infield. Dan Norton chases.

:07:39. > :07:52.James Davis is the brother of Jonathan. He plays with Wales and

:07:53. > :07:59.the Great Britain Lions. Giving the Kenyan is some of their own

:08:00. > :08:01.medicine. The whistle has gone. It looks like they will put on a set

:08:02. > :08:34.play. Bennett with the dummy. It is the

:08:35. > :08:40.fourth try. This will end the half. It has been an excellent first-half

:08:41. > :08:44.for the British team. Four tries, over 20 points. Very smooth and

:08:45. > :08:51.efficient so far. Couple of points. Well done Mark Bennett. Very

:08:52. > :08:57.powerful and adding a lot to this team. The key thing, they could have

:08:58. > :09:03.kicked it out and went to half-time 17-0 up. They brought out a set play

:09:04. > :09:07.that looked good. It went to the left and the right. On the red, the

:09:08. > :09:19.two speedsters, Bennett and Dan Norton. The referee from France has

:09:20. > :09:29.blown for half-time. Great Britain 24-0 Kenya. Kenny are kept to Nel.

:09:30. > :09:34.Given the reputation for power and muscularity... Watching Mitchell

:09:35. > :09:40.play, he is the heartbeat of the team. The way that he controls the

:09:41. > :09:50.middle. His move on but the ball. We have got good pace with Bennett and

:09:51. > :10:01.Dan Norton. This was an awkward fixture. Great to see him starting

:10:02. > :10:03.confidently. We saw some spectacular size in the women's game and we had

:10:04. > :10:15.already seen it here. Phil Burgess added this trial. One

:10:16. > :10:20.variation between the men's game and in the women's game, the woman came

:10:21. > :10:26.to play a high tempo during the game. The men, slow, slow, bursts of

:10:27. > :10:32.acceleration and then they stop to keep the ball in play. Mark Bennett

:10:33. > :10:36.finishing half in grand style. I have been impressed the time. He

:10:37. > :10:37.looks comfortable in the team. I like the set plays when a

:10:38. > :11:16.standstill. Phil Burgess approaches the halfway

:11:17. > :11:20.spot, I am sorry, Tom Mitchell. The referee wants to get on with the

:11:21. > :11:32.game. There's no time to hang around rugby sevens. Rodwell on this the

:11:33. > :11:42.touchline will set off in pursuit. He makes the tackle on Willy Ambaka.

:11:43. > :11:50.Kenya have possession on their own 22. This is the power game, they are

:11:51. > :11:52.hard to stop. They have won himself a penalty on the ten metre line.

:11:53. > :12:10.Advantage being played. Excellent pass. Rodwell did so well

:12:11. > :12:17.to come in and stop. Chance for Kenny. They will score the first

:12:18. > :12:27.try. Mark Bennett could not make the tackle. Willy Ambaka and Kenny are

:12:28. > :12:30.out on the scoreboard. -- Kenya. Good try by the Kenya team. Mark

:12:31. > :12:47.Bennett will be disappointed he did make that tackle. You can see the

:12:48. > :12:51.danger of the Kenyan team. He did not put the ball straight down, he

:12:52. > :12:58.wanted to get the extra yards. Breaking the kicking game simpler

:12:59. > :13:11.for Biko Adema. The conversion is good. Kenya set off in pursuit of 24

:13:12. > :13:17.points for Great Britain. The restart will be by Biko Adema. They

:13:18. > :13:32.have packed the one side of the field. Mark Bennett catches the

:13:33. > :13:51.scraps. Kenny and knocked the ball on. -- Kenya.

:13:52. > :14:04.The finish by Billy Odhiambo. Mitchell feeds the scrum. Cleanly

:14:05. > :14:11.away. The day goes back into the forwards. That was the danger. Kenya

:14:12. > :14:28.are very stronger. And that they have won the penalty. Quickly taken.

:14:29. > :14:36.This time, good work at the breakdown. James Davis. Penalty in

:14:37. > :14:39.Great Britain's favour. He has got two wonderful turnovers when he has

:14:40. > :14:46.got his body over the ball and stayed on his feet. Two huge it's a

:14:47. > :14:49.possession by his ability and the contact area. He is just as physical

:14:50. > :14:58.as the Kenya team. Well done, James Davis. Tom Mitchell for touch. Great

:14:59. > :15:09.Britain start to ring the changes. Marcus Watson comes on. What has

:15:10. > :15:17.come one for Mark Bennett. Mark Robertson of Scotland is also on. I

:15:18. > :15:24.played against his dad, Keith Robertson, many years ago. Knock-on

:15:25. > :15:27.at the line-out. Possession back again for Kenya. They have more

:15:28. > :15:32.possession in the second-half but only one tried to name. Marcus

:15:33. > :15:41.Watson with the important tackle made.

:15:42. > :15:48.Relief as the whistle goes. Good defence, it is a very hot day,

:15:49. > :15:55.bringing these replacements on brings intensity into the squad.

:15:56. > :16:08.With 2.5 minutes to go... 20/7, you can ring the changes now. -- 24/7.

:16:09. > :16:12.Rodwell is an outstanding, absolutely outstanding. Getting a

:16:13. > :16:18.patch from his coach and rightly so, before the basics of the restart,

:16:19. > :16:24.he's been right on the money -- a pat on the back.

:16:25. > :16:28.Dan Norton chases... It is a good bounce for him. Reading it well,

:16:29. > :16:38.slowing it down a long way before that.

:16:39. > :16:44.Burgess... And Mark Robertson. It is there, for Mitchell.

:16:45. > :16:51.Norton is outside, and Daniel Bibby does not need him.

:16:52. > :16:57.The first try of the second half to seal victory. A safe passage into

:16:58. > :17:03.game two. An excellent score from Team GB, Robertson takes the ball

:17:04. > :17:07.heavily into contact. Team GB recycled the ball cleanly and it

:17:08. > :17:12.eventually comes out to Dan Bibby, born into hands, taking the outside.

:17:13. > :17:18.I have to say, this is a strong Kenyan team. Team GB have been

:17:19. > :17:23.really first class. This was an awkward fixture to get through and

:17:24. > :17:26.they've gone through it with ease. They have also been allowed to bring

:17:27. > :17:31.on their whole bench, all 12 players would have had a real run out in

:17:32. > :17:36.these Olympic Games. It has been a great start. Simon Amor, their

:17:37. > :17:43.coach, would have really hoped for this. Norton and Bibby go off,

:17:44. > :17:46.clapping and applauding, being applauded, it has been a thorough

:17:47. > :17:52.and efficient performance with some glamorous moments as well.

:17:53. > :18:07.Sam crossed... Chasing. -- Sam Cross.

:18:08. > :18:18.Nearly into the last half a minute of play.

:18:19. > :18:27.It's another penalty at the breakdown. Play on. Textbook tackle

:18:28. > :18:34.from Mark Robertson, he got pulled up for not running quickly, they are

:18:35. > :18:45.so tight on these. Emonyi Collins Injera. There is an advantage being

:18:46. > :18:49.played... The hooter goes, it is not the end of the game, Kenya have a

:18:50. > :18:53.penalty. No, the referee says that that is

:18:54. > :19:00.enough. Great Britain have come through their first trial, their

:19:01. > :19:06.first ever get together as a Team GB rugby sevens. That means that they

:19:07. > :19:07.came in as strangers, and they go out as friends.

:19:08. > :19:23.They beat Kenya, 31-7. What a confidence boost for the

:19:24. > :19:26.Great Britain squad, coming in, their first major international

:19:27. > :19:31.tournament as a squad and they have beaten Kenya 31-7.

:19:32. > :19:35.A really committed performance with plenty of efficiencies, thorough as

:19:36. > :19:40.Eddie Butler said, and 20 flower, it's important to rehydrate and rest

:19:41. > :19:43.up. Another matches coming up at five o'clock your time when they

:19:44. > :19:48.take on Japan and they will be sitting watching Japan in action.

:19:49. > :19:52.In the next match, they play New Zealand also in pool C.

:19:53. > :19:55.They are fancied, as Fiji, to win the gold medal in the men's rugby

:19:56. > :20:03.sevens. We are back with you shortly.

:20:04. > :20:07.ORE:. We show you that game on BBC One tonight, as Jill said, at nine

:20:08. > :20:12.o'clock for that one. Now we will move on to show you some

:20:13. > :20:17.judo. Great Britain involved in this one. It is all taking place at the

:20:18. > :20:23.arena over there. If you want to know the difference

:20:24. > :20:34.between all of your mates, just watch this... -- moves. Judo was

:20:35. > :20:39.developed in the late 19th century in Japan, and has been an Olympic

:20:40. > :20:45.sport since Tokyo 1964. Each contest in judo has a duration of five

:20:46. > :20:49.minutes for men, or four minutes for women. If scores are level at the

:20:50. > :20:54.end of a contest, they enter the Golden skull where there is no time

:20:55. > :20:59.limit and the first score penalty awarded will decide the contest. --

:21:00. > :21:04.score. The highest scoring technique is the ippon, which instantly wins a

:21:05. > :21:07.contest and can be achieved in four ways, throwing an opponent with

:21:08. > :21:11.impact on their back with considerable force and speed,

:21:12. > :21:15.pinning and holding down an opponent for 20 seconds with selected holding

:21:16. > :21:23.techniques, when an opponent submits gives up, or score two Maruti

:21:24. > :21:28.against an opponent. Waza-ari can be achieved in two ways, throwing an

:21:29. > :21:32.opponent but lacking one of the elements for ippon, or holding down

:21:33. > :21:37.an opponent for 15 seconds or more but less than 20 seconds. A yuko is

:21:38. > :21:42.worth one point but can also be scored in two ways. Throwing an

:21:43. > :21:47.opponent but lacking two elements needed for ippon, or holding down an

:21:48. > :21:50.opponent for 10-14 seconds. Judo is a knockout competition and all

:21:51. > :21:54.competitors are placed in a drawer divided into two tables. The top

:21:55. > :21:58.athletes in each weight category will be seeded in line with the

:21:59. > :22:04.world rankings, and the finalists will compete for the gold and silver

:22:05. > :22:08.medals. ORE: Alice would love to win a gold

:22:09. > :22:17.or silver medal, she is one of the most experienced judo fighters, born

:22:18. > :22:25.in Israel, but in this round of 32 in the 63 kilograms category, she is

:22:26. > :22:27.taking on her South Korean competitor. Ollie Williams takes us

:22:28. > :22:45.through this. COMMENTATOR: Alice Schlesinger in

:22:46. > :22:50.white, Jiyun in blue. A story of disappointment so far in British

:22:51. > :23:00.judo at Rio 2016, now Alice Schlesinger is making her British

:23:01. > :23:04.debut at this level. They have only met twice before, each winning on

:23:05. > :23:08.just one occasion. Watch out for Jiyun Bak using her footwork in

:23:09. > :23:13.particular, that happened last November when the two met. Alice

:23:14. > :23:18.Schlesinger eventually won that one. Alice Schlesinger was at London

:23:19. > :23:22.2012, she was there for Israel. She transferred over to Great Britain

:23:23. > :23:25.afterwards, her mother is British. That was after a protracted dispute

:23:26. > :23:33.with the Israeli Association, she felt she was being pushed out.

:23:34. > :23:38.Now, she is back at Rio 2016, grappling in the stages, with Jiyun

:23:39. > :23:42.Bak trying to throw her over. Jiyun Bak in particular really likes

:23:43. > :23:48.to use her feet, she really likes to attack the back of her opponent,

:23:49. > :23:53.trying to wrap her heel around her back and bring the opponent over the

:23:54. > :24:05.top. In the past, Alice Schlesinger has been good. Turning, you can see

:24:06. > :24:17.that attack there. The referee allows the two to reset. Alice

:24:18. > :24:25.Schlesinger comes forward and looks to get a stronghold. Now making use

:24:26. > :24:31.of her own feet, exchanging these little blows and looking for a

:24:32. > :24:35.purchase point, looking to pivot your opponent over your leg. If you

:24:36. > :24:45.can find the right move. Alice Schlesinger round the back...

:24:46. > :24:50.Falling back. But avoiding anything. A couple of minutes left. With the

:24:51. > :24:58.golden score an option, if there is no score or penalties by the end of

:24:59. > :25:03.this. Alice Schlesinger is ranked eighth in the world. One of the

:25:04. > :25:15.top-ranked British judo fighters at Rio 2016. She has more experience

:25:16. > :25:19.than Jiyun Bak. And probably has a slightly better CV in terms of wins,

:25:20. > :25:22.not least the back of grand slam, that was a few months ago. A

:25:23. > :25:31.procedure 's tournament that Alice Schlesinger won. With five

:25:32. > :25:38.back-to-back ippons, which is relatively unusual and exceptionally

:25:39. > :25:48.impressive. Jiyun Bak gets a moment just to adjust her dress. Secured,

:25:49. > :26:04.and beginning again. Kate how we looking on, a British

:26:05. > :26:08.judo grade. An Olympic medallist and now the driving force behind this,

:26:09. > :26:14.as Alice Schlesinger rucks over and tries to bring Jiyun Bak down. It

:26:15. > :26:17.has been relatively tentative so far between these two. More so than in

:26:18. > :26:21.the past when they have faced one another. So far, no score or

:26:22. > :26:34.penalties. This time... Alice Schlesinger rucks

:26:35. > :26:39.around and delivers the move that takes her through into the second

:26:40. > :26:44.round of the competition. Judoka covering her eyes on the ground. The

:26:45. > :26:52.referee wants to check that she is OK. Her Olympics is over. And Alice

:26:53. > :27:04.Schlesinger, now of Great Britain, formerly of Israel, will progress.

:27:05. > :27:13.ANNOUNCER: Alice Schlesinger! ORE: Very well done, Alice

:27:14. > :27:18.Schlesinger. The great British Judoka moving

:27:19. > :27:22.herself into the last 16. That happened a little earlier. Earlier

:27:23. > :27:26.on BBC Four, you would have seen Great Britain's Joe Cordina

:27:27. > :27:31.unfortunately got knocked out in the men's lightweight category, he was

:27:32. > :27:36.taking on his Uzbekistani opponent, and the European runs medallist of

:27:37. > :27:40.2015 evidently was really disappointed in missing out on his

:27:41. > :27:44.progression in this competition. Straight after the bout with Hurshid

:27:45. > :27:49.Tojibaev, Jess Creighton caught up with him. Not the result you would

:27:50. > :27:54.have wanted, any complaints about the decision? It was split. No, in

:27:55. > :27:58.the first round I thought I had done enough. The second was close, the

:27:59. > :28:02.third round I thought that he dominated. I could not get going. He

:28:03. > :28:07.hit my body a lot, slowing me down and I could not pick it up. I cannot

:28:08. > :28:11.complain with the decision, he did enough and the better man one on the

:28:12. > :28:17.day. He is the fifth seed, it would always be tough, was it was you it

:28:18. > :28:22.-- was it what you expected? Yes, he is a world champion. I knew that he

:28:23. > :28:27.would be strong and is one of the hardest hitters I've been with. This

:28:28. > :28:32.is your Olympic debut, what do you take away from this experience? It

:28:33. > :28:35.has been amazing. This crowd is an amazing crowd and this is the

:28:36. > :28:42.pinnacle of amateur boxing. I have to take that and it is a huge bonus

:28:43. > :28:46.in my career. It is a good experience. What next? I don't know,

:28:47. > :28:53.I have to go back and assess what I have done. Now, I'm still a junior

:28:54. > :28:56.boxer. When I get back to Sheffield, I might do a Commonwealth Games and

:28:57. > :29:00.perhaps another Olympic cycle would be nice? All the best, Joe. Take

:29:01. > :29:04.care. ORE: Hopefully Joe Cantor you some

:29:05. > :29:08.positives from that defeat but he has had so many high hopes -- can

:29:09. > :29:12.tell you. Especially after those three gods

:29:13. > :29:16.that they won in the Excel centre. Unfortunately though, he is out of

:29:17. > :29:27.the men's lightweight competition. But at the Dore, as you saw earlier

:29:28. > :29:31.here on BBC Four, -- dear Doro. Jill Douglas caught up with the Team

:29:32. > :29:36.GB rugby sevens ahead of their game against Japan, then tomorrow they

:29:37. > :29:41.take on 12 time series champions, New Zealand.

:29:42. > :29:44.Tough! That was a winning Olympic debut, a lot of confidence from that

:29:45. > :29:49.performance gritter at yes, it is nice to have the first thing out of

:29:50. > :29:53.the way. It is a big occasion for all of us, and we are excited.

:29:54. > :29:56.Please put how the guys came out in that first one. A decent

:29:57. > :30:00.performance. There is a is the fear that Kenya could be a difficult

:30:01. > :30:05.opening match, you played them before. They are a very good side.

:30:06. > :30:09.And they are above you in the World Series? Yes, they have been an

:30:10. > :30:13.unbelievable side in the last few years, we know that they would be a

:30:14. > :30:18.challenge. There are no easy games here, it's the Olympics. We met them

:30:19. > :30:22.physically, that was always be key focus. Energy sapping though? I know

:30:23. > :30:27.that you pay in hot countries all over the world but it really is

:30:28. > :30:31.sapping. Yes, sevens is hard graft. It's something you do on a daily

:30:32. > :30:36.basis, the pain and burn that you feel in your legs and lungs is part

:30:37. > :30:40.of the game. We enjoy playing here, it's a good track and crowd, it is a

:30:41. > :30:44.bit of fun. What now? Taking a breather before you play Japan? Yes,

:30:45. > :30:49.it's a long break to what we are used to. The key thing is to switch

:30:50. > :30:53.off and refuel, take our minds off it, and have a bit of a lie down and

:30:54. > :30:58.get ready for the next one. Good stuff, thank you.

:30:59. > :31:06.They have a well earned break and Japan as the next match in the

:31:07. > :31:11.group. They will take them on at about 9pm this evening. We will take

:31:12. > :31:14.you into the Aquatic Centre later on because there are some British

:31:15. > :31:19.swimmers are involved later on and we will see our BBC team, there's a

:31:20. > :31:28.couple of them over there, Helen and Mark. That was not what -- that was

:31:29. > :31:31.not a welcome. Maybe more kisses on camera later on. Let us go to the

:31:32. > :31:37.Canoe slalom because Great Britain have got a medal prospect in David

:31:38. > :31:47.Florence. Two silver medals in consecutive Olympic Games in the C-1

:31:48. > :31:49.and the C-2. He is in the final in the C-1 later. He wants to take a

:31:50. > :31:58.gold medal away from Rio. They have got a Silver Medal. David

:31:59. > :32:04.Florence is out of this Olympic competition. This places got

:32:05. > :32:10.bittersweet feelings for you? You won the Silver Medal at London but

:32:11. > :32:16.in the C-1 it did not go as you would of liked it. I am so used to

:32:17. > :32:24.come here every day and this is get put in the hard work. I won the

:32:25. > :32:28.World Cup world Championships here. David Florence, the world champion

:32:29. > :32:34.from 2013 is the world champion again in 2015. I look back at the

:32:35. > :32:42.Olympics in London and there was a bit of disappointment. In the C-1,

:32:43. > :32:44.it seems a long time ago and almost forgotten. Are you quite

:32:45. > :32:52.philosophical about it and you have to be in a spotlight this? It is a

:32:53. > :32:55.really big advantage to accept that there are things out of your control

:32:56. > :33:01.and you cannot guarantee yourself to win a race. If you can accept that

:33:02. > :33:05.unmarked on the things that are within your control, you are four

:33:06. > :33:12.more likely to have the best chance possible of achieving what you want.

:33:13. > :33:16.I am motivated, Gavin. I have been trained to the best of my ability.

:33:17. > :33:21.If I get everything right then I will put myself in with a very good

:33:22. > :33:25.chance. You father since London and a father again. What has changed in

:33:26. > :33:32.your life. Lots of athletes see it changes them. Has done anything for

:33:33. > :33:36.you? It is the most ordinary thing to do in the world, to have

:33:37. > :33:40.children. When it is you it does seem exciting and it is a lot of fun

:33:41. > :33:48.and I love having a family to go back to. It does not affect what I'm

:33:49. > :33:53.trying to do in Rio. How would you compare yourself four years on,

:33:54. > :33:58.older and wiser going into Rio? I have had a good Olympic cycle. I

:33:59. > :34:03.have never won the World Championships prior to the London

:34:04. > :34:08.derby games. And now I have one three titles the last three Mac

:34:09. > :34:14.years. I enjoy it as much as ever. I've had lots of good runs. It will

:34:15. > :34:18.come on down to sticking in making the most of every training session.

:34:19. > :34:23.The opportunity to learn and be as ready as I can be. What would it

:34:24. > :34:29.mean to get a gold medal? It would be an incredible achievement.

:34:30. > :34:32.Something I do not take lightly. It is difficult to achieve even if you

:34:33. > :34:38.are one of the best for so many years. We have had so many standout

:34:39. > :34:46.athletes in our sport, it would be a phenomenal achievement. I would be

:34:47. > :34:54.very proud. And he will be able to see David Florence in the men's C-1

:34:55. > :35:00.the semifinal. It feels like something is going on behind me,

:35:01. > :35:04.we're having a party. Argentinians and Brazilians together as one. It

:35:05. > :35:08.is a wonderful feeling at the Olympics. It brings together

:35:09. > :35:16.families and friends, nations and neighbours. Shall we move away from

:35:17. > :35:22.them. I would need a cotton bud to take that out of my ear. We will go

:35:23. > :35:27.down to the hockey. Ireland, it has been a long way to get back into

:35:28. > :35:32.Olympic competition. Around 100 years since they were last in the

:35:33. > :35:37.Olympic Games. We look at their group, it did not get off to the

:35:38. > :35:41.best start for them against India. They had a big defeat. Today, they

:35:42. > :35:49.take on Germany, the Olympic champions. It does not get tougher

:35:50. > :35:50.for the night. The third game of the campaign is underway and we join

:35:51. > :36:05.them in the first quarter. Early in the first quarter, Law

:36:06. > :36:09.School heard at the Deodoro Stadium. The first couple of minutes was all

:36:10. > :36:16.about German possession. And then the Irish team started to get into

:36:17. > :36:24.their stride. They are up against it. Germany are the double Olympic

:36:25. > :36:34.champions in 2008 in 2012. Unbeaten so far. Arrogant yet to score a

:36:35. > :36:38.point in the tournament. -- Ireland. The ball popped up and he picks it

:36:39. > :36:39.up off his back foot, leaning away. Right-hander puts through towards

:36:40. > :37:05.the goal. The Irish defenders just keeping

:37:06. > :37:24.possession. This is Jonathan Bell, the number four.

:37:25. > :37:31.For the Irish, this is about turnover hockey. Play the ball in

:37:32. > :37:41.sensible areas. Not compete with the Germans down the middle of the

:37:42. > :37:42.field. Good skills and be a age come away with Michael Watt on this right

:37:43. > :37:56.flank. -- the Irish. The Germans are so quick to find an

:37:57. > :37:59.opening. That was not quite so clever from the German midfielder.

:38:00. > :38:01.It is out of play and the Irish have a chance to cover some ground

:38:02. > :38:15.towards the German circle. Another opportunity to build. Bell

:38:16. > :38:26.calling for it on the right. He traps and moves forward. As Bell

:38:27. > :38:32.gets a ball, he needs the lead in front of them or he will have to be

:38:33. > :38:36.cycle that. It is safe possession but it is not eliminating a line.

:38:37. > :38:37.You need the past to break the midfield lying to allow you to move

:38:38. > :38:55.forwards. Gets away with it. Good skills. The

:38:56. > :39:05.Irish take it quickly. That ball was stuck to the stack. Michael Watt.

:39:06. > :39:15.The Irish are threatening. They are in the German circle. It will be

:39:16. > :39:21.German possession. Peter Caruth was penalised. He were to session in his

:39:22. > :39:22.body between the defender at the ball and was penalised for that

:39:23. > :39:52.obstruction. The Irish supporters are only stand

:39:53. > :39:56.adjacent to the German supporters on the heart -- are having a

:39:57. > :40:00.competition to see who can make the most noise. The Irish supporters are

:40:01. > :40:10.the winners in the earlier stages in that competition. The supporters are

:40:11. > :40:14.able to buy the tickets from the Federation and are all in the same

:40:15. > :40:18.area. The Belgians did the same. We are having some technical problems

:40:19. > :40:26.today. The giant scoreboard is not working. We think the music on the

:40:27. > :40:33.PA system is not working. There was no music for the anthems. Both teams

:40:34. > :40:37.sang the anthems a cappella. The big concern is getting the video umpire

:40:38. > :40:39.system up and running. Will the Hawk-Eye system still be there? Can

:40:40. > :41:03.they refer to it? The Germans are looking for a way

:41:04. > :41:13.through. It is a scramble in front of goal. The Irish clear. What a

:41:14. > :41:15.save by David Harte. He got his left hip down. He pushed from goal with

:41:16. > :41:49.the left-hand block. Backhand shot beyond the post of

:41:50. > :41:54.David Harte. Christopher Wesley on the backhand. That is the reaction

:41:55. > :42:00.save. He gets his left hand down to block. At the other end as we see

:42:01. > :42:06.the second replay for the Mr backhand, there has been a bit it

:42:07. > :42:17.has been an argument. The umpire is reaching for the card. It is green.

:42:18. > :42:21.It is Timm Herzbruch that had it. That was the push. The umpire was

:42:22. > :42:27.right behind it and saw it very clearly. Two minute medical

:42:28. > :42:37.advantage for Ireland. 11 versus ten. -- numerical advantage. That is

:42:38. > :42:42.an appalling attempt at a tackle from Christopher Wesley. Even from

:42:43. > :42:50.appearing the commentary position, he put his left shoulder in. That is

:42:51. > :42:56.e-mailed on penalty corner. Given the card earlier on for Timm

:42:57. > :43:03.Herzbruch, why does that, not carry the same personal penalty? That is a

:43:04. > :43:21.good point. Germany are lucky to have ten men on the field. Kyle Good

:43:22. > :43:32.will inject for Ireland. That was saved. Another opportunity. What a

:43:33. > :43:38.brilliant save by Nicolas Jacobi. Low to the big man's left-hand side.

:43:39. > :43:44.That was a long drag. Down to the right-hand side. Nicolas Jacobi was

:43:45. > :43:50.outstanding. Encouraging signs for Ireland. They get the first penalty

:43:51. > :43:57.corner of the match. Forcing the best out of Nicolas Jacobi. Germany

:43:58. > :44:10.continued to pressure the Irish goal. Good defence. Germany get the

:44:11. > :44:17.first penalty corner of the match. He gets his eyes up. Mig Eagles

:44:18. > :44:19.download. It was the trailing leg, the ball hits and to give away

:44:20. > :44:38.penalty corner. The Germans discussing the options.

:44:39. > :44:52.Linus Butt will inject. The German skipper might fancy this one. It is

:44:53. > :44:56.a goal. It is Moritz Furste. Frustratingly for Ireland, he does

:44:57. > :45:04.what he likes to do, pulls it around his body. Make the goalkeeper stand

:45:05. > :45:20.up. It is gone round his feet. It goes past John Jackson on the line.

:45:21. > :45:30.Moritz Furste, the German skipper. He is the first to strike.

:45:31. > :45:38.The last couple of minutes of the first quarter. It is an action that

:45:39. > :45:44.we will see first to execute around the pitch, a lower and long drag,

:45:45. > :45:49.his favourite. Going to the right-hand side, then offsetting the

:45:50. > :45:58.goalkeeper or opponent, then driving down to the left.

:45:59. > :46:03.Michael Watt... And John Jackson. Bell calls for it on the right-hand

:46:04. > :46:08.side. You won't get it to him, they go down the centre, is a positive

:46:09. > :46:15.approach from Ireland, over the top and into the circle as the ball

:46:16. > :46:22.ricochets into the circle. The umpire with an appreciation of the

:46:23. > :46:24.player's skill level, that was not dangerous to any player, they

:46:25. > :46:47.allowed the interchange to happen. It's a free hit for Germany.

:46:48. > :46:59.Switching their angles of attack now...

:47:00. > :47:12.Moritz Furste, on the centre of the German defence. Ireland took to

:47:13. > :47:16.break free. They have 30 seconds to do damage in this first quarter. Or

:47:17. > :47:20.damage limitation with Germany pressuring. A lot of work done,

:47:21. > :47:26.final 20 seconds of the period... WHISTLE

:47:27. > :47:30.Not finished yet, Morris first takes to the edge of the circle, an

:47:31. > :47:35.individual effort perhaps to run down the clock, keep possession and

:47:36. > :47:41.take us to the tutor at the end of the first 15 minute period of play

:47:42. > :47:45.-- Moritz Furste. Here it is... APPLAUSE

:47:46. > :47:49.A good half, a good quarter for the Irish. But the German striking at

:47:50. > :47:54.the first penalty corner opportunity. Their captain Moritz

:47:55. > :48:02.Furste getting the goal, and at the break, it is 0- one to Germany.

:48:03. > :48:06.ORE: We will be back with that, in a couple of minutes time. Ireland have

:48:07. > :48:12.all of the work to do, they trailed the Olympic champions by 1-0. Before

:48:13. > :48:17.we go back, we have detail you about the fact that Andy Murray, Great

:48:18. > :48:23.Britain's flag bearer, is out on court now, looking to retain the

:48:24. > :48:27.title he won at London 2012. He takes on Monaco of Argentina, for

:48:28. > :48:31.those who want to watch the uninterrupted coverage, that's on

:48:32. > :48:35.the Red Button, but only if you have satellite or cable, it is also

:48:36. > :48:38.available on the BBC sport website and the app. We will keep you

:48:39. > :48:43.abreast of all of the action on Court one on BBC Four. There will be

:48:44. > :48:50.a lot of swimming later on here on the BBC. The guys who will bring it

:48:51. > :48:57.to you standing by. We have Helen Skelton... Rebecca Adlington... And

:48:58. > :49:01.Mark Foster! What a team. What a line-up. You know what? You all seem

:49:02. > :49:06.like you've been having the best of times in that very hot, sticky and

:49:07. > :49:11.clammy Olympic and then to. Have you come off the ceiling after Adam

:49:12. > :49:14.Peaty's world record and Olympic gold medal? Yes, we like to call it

:49:15. > :49:18.the house of fun. Will have the first two medals, I

:49:19. > :49:23.jumped on their coat-tails! We had nothing to do with those medals,

:49:24. > :49:26.just the privilege of watching it! The Brazilians have created a great

:49:27. > :49:32.atmosphere in there. Any time a Brazilian swimmer comes out, it is

:49:33. > :49:38.as if they are in the final. They go crazy! I saw a picture of some of

:49:39. > :49:44.the Samba costumes in there. They were Mark Foster! I told you they

:49:45. > :49:48.were having more fun than us! Becky, a lot of Brits in action?

:49:49. > :49:53.Terry O'Connor is looking fast in the 200? Siobhan had a brilliant

:49:54. > :49:58.heat, going into the final first, that is incredible. She has a fight

:49:59. > :50:03.on her hands with her opponent with her, but she should come away with a

:50:04. > :50:06.medal. We have the 4x200 men's relay. Britain won at the

:50:07. > :50:10.championships last year, so hopefully they will get and that as

:50:11. > :50:15.well. Helen talked about those medals, there's the momentum that

:50:16. > :50:18.the British guys have there. Are you expecting more medals? Of course,

:50:19. > :50:20.especially from Sherborne, she trained with Jazz Carlin who got his

:50:21. > :50:29.elbow. -- Sherborne.

:50:30. > :50:32.-- who got a medal. But Jazz Carlin will want time.

:50:33. > :50:39.Mark Foster, the greatest Olympian of all time, takes to the water

:50:40. > :50:46.again. We have a showdown? Michael Phelps... In the 200 meter freestyle

:50:47. > :50:53.first, that is a big race this week, they smashed the Olympic on-the-fly,

:50:54. > :50:55.and the debt he broke a world record.

:50:56. > :51:00.The one that you are talking about is Michael Phelps against Chad

:51:01. > :51:05.McCloy, that is a rematch from four years ago, that is all kicking off.

:51:06. > :51:13.Schadler clone was doing this in front of Michael Phelps's face, and

:51:14. > :51:18.he was doing this... Just pulling angry faces at him! There is

:51:19. > :51:21.definitely tactics going on there. A lot of stirring down. Before the

:51:22. > :51:25.race we saw it, side-by-side, the same as the Olympic Games, Chad

:51:26. > :51:28.cannot take his eyes of Michael Phelps and it is not because he

:51:29. > :51:32.likes him! I think that is certainly one to

:51:33. > :51:39.watch. I cannot wait, you have work to do... We would run but I feel

:51:40. > :51:42.inadequate! Helen Skelton loves a challenge, if you tell her to go she

:51:43. > :51:46.will run. Challenge her! There's a competition

:51:47. > :51:51.going on between you... Off you go, swim team! There they go! He is

:51:52. > :51:56.running, Mark Foster is running in flip-flops!

:51:57. > :51:59.Be careful! Gunners go to the Deodoro Stadium, we have the second

:52:00. > :52:05.quarter of Ireland against Germany under way, as you can see, Ireland

:52:06. > :52:10.are trailing 1-0. They had a couple of minutes already in the second

:52:11. > :52:16.quarter, let's rejoin our commentators.

:52:17. > :52:22.COMMENTATOR: Germany 1-0 Ireland. Into the second quarter. 12.5

:52:23. > :52:31.minutes until half-time. The Irish have had a couple of decent forays

:52:32. > :52:40.into the German circle. At the moment, the men in black are

:52:41. > :52:47.controlling possession. Morris first two liners but, and back.

:52:48. > :52:56.Of the centre of the diagonal. -- Moritz Furste to Linus Butt.

:52:57. > :53:00.The Germans have gone left to right all round the back three times in

:53:01. > :53:05.succession. As Schumann 's anticipated the

:53:06. > :53:08.square ball, Moritz Furste went to go to the right wing.

:53:09. > :53:15.Down the centre into the circle, pressure on the Irish goal, and what

:53:16. > :53:20.a great save! From David Harte. Germany attempting to get a backhand

:53:21. > :53:41.shot in. The Irish reinforcements arrived to shore up the defence.

:53:42. > :53:47.It's a chance for Germany to weave some magic, into the circle, Jadhav

:53:48. > :53:55.off the line and conceding a penalty corner. -- David Harte. From

:53:56. > :54:01.Grambusch, that was brilliant. Suddenly, a stick obstruction, as he

:54:02. > :54:08.goes on to David Harte on the backhand. A sliding pass earlier, a

:54:09. > :54:14.big left-hand barrier. As he shoots across him. Called upon again, the

:54:15. > :54:26.hat-trick of saves required to keep Germany at 1-0. For a big man he is

:54:27. > :54:32.so mobile. Linus Butt will inject... Which way will be Germans go this

:54:33. > :54:39.time? Here is the trap... Drag flick and the second attempt goes wide.

:54:40. > :54:44.The Germans will think that is a missed chance. That seemed to go

:54:45. > :54:55.uncontested past the post. Another great save from David Harte.

:54:56. > :54:59.Keeping the scoreline manageable at this stage as the ball bubbles

:55:00. > :55:05.around and Germany come away empty-handed at the moment. Again

:55:06. > :55:09.and again, from David Harte, that is why he is obviously one of the

:55:10. > :55:16.world's best goalkeepers, outstanding for two years now. Into

:55:17. > :55:21.the circle, high and over the top and behind.

:55:22. > :55:27.The big scoreboard is back in action now. Therefore, we will assume that

:55:28. > :55:32.the system that connects the umpire to the video umpire is functioning

:55:33. > :55:44.correctly, if required. The goal-scorer, Moritz Furste.

:55:45. > :55:51.Diagonal to Linus Butt, going on a shimmy forward. Moritz Furste takes

:55:52. > :55:59.it up again. The playmaker deep in the rich half of the field now. Tom

:56:00. > :56:04.Grambusch flicks it back inside and it bounces up, appeals from Germany

:56:05. > :56:09.for an Irish putt on the ball. I think it was the highball, Kirk

:56:10. > :56:14.Shimmins steps across, unfortunately the ball goes back across the gold

:56:15. > :56:20.-- an Irish foot on the ball. That mistake from Kirk Shimmins.

:56:21. > :56:26.Earlier, German execution, Harte with a clear, and the defence did

:56:27. > :56:34.not help him out at all. Smothered with his leg guards, on

:56:35. > :56:40.his hip, denying Florian Fuchs. That opportunity. Linus Butt lines

:56:41. > :56:42.it up with an injection. It is Tom Grambusch or Florian Fuchs

:56:43. > :56:49.potentially to get a part at this one.

:56:50. > :56:53.Grambusch, tipped over the top. Looking spectacular but that is

:56:54. > :56:55.bread-and-butter for David Harte. He is a big man, his left hand was

:56:56. > :57:06.up early. This will go to video, a corner

:57:07. > :57:21.given, the player Kurt -- Kyle Good suggested it was hand,

:57:22. > :57:30.not foot. Was it a stick or a third? Dion now

:57:31. > :57:41.has a closer look -- foot. I have a decision... It was off the

:57:42. > :57:46.stick. OK, thanks. No penalty corner, Ireland keep their referral.

:57:47. > :57:52.Everything works out well for the Irish boys. David Harte with a high

:57:53. > :57:55.left-hand, thinking he read it right off the end of Tom Grambusch's

:57:56. > :57:59.stick. Studies on how fast these balls

:58:00. > :58:02.travel, the goalkeeper has to move before the ball gets off the end of

:58:03. > :58:07.the stick. They need to read the drag and the

:58:08. > :58:12.whip. And moved early. Gleghorne with space ahead, which he enters.

:58:13. > :58:22.Not so good, the shot across looking for Peter Caruth. Too strong.

:58:23. > :58:26.Valentine Altenburg looking quite relaxed on the German bench. No need

:58:27. > :58:33.or concern yet. They played against India the other day, the second and

:58:34. > :58:35.third quarters showed good ball-handling, no urgency.

:58:36. > :58:39.The rule in that game for the Germans was that they did not want

:58:40. > :58:44.to get into a lamination one-on-one contests.

:58:45. > :58:47.Play the board around, nice and comfortable -- elimination.

:58:48. > :58:51.In the last ten seconds of the match, it was 1-1 until ten seconds

:58:52. > :58:57.before the final hooter where they got the winner.

:58:58. > :59:06.Christopher Ruhr with a backhand cross, fast and furious, but the

:59:07. > :59:09.Irish side read it well. Grambusch, overhead and across the

:59:10. > :59:13.face of the Irish goal. Picked up and controlled.

:59:14. > :59:18.Flicking it forward. The Germans look dangerous, can they turn and

:59:19. > :59:22.get a backhand shot on the goal? Good defence, every interception

:59:23. > :59:26.from Paul Gleghorne but you had to admire the creativity of the

:59:27. > :59:30.build-up. Grambusch goes from beyond the 25 line on the left, and

:59:31. > :59:36.overhead to right wing, it's a ridiculous path to set up the

:59:37. > :59:38.attack. Out of play this time, off a German stick. A bit of relief for

:59:39. > :59:59.Ireland. Gleghorne, across the turf, the

:00:00. > :00:05.Irish side can set off on a fast burst down the left-hand side now.

:00:06. > :00:13.Backtracking... All the way back. A bit risky, with Christopher Ruhr

:00:14. > :00:18.patrolling that area of the field. The Irish have got away with it.

:00:19. > :00:26.Come forward with pace... Led by John Jermyn. The Irish have to do a

:00:27. > :00:30.bit of running with the ball, creating opportunities to shut the

:00:31. > :00:31.Germans down, they have to run without the ball to defend,

:00:32. > :01:06.physically it is so demanding. That pass was intercepted by John

:01:07. > :01:09.Jermyn. It was a good job that John Jermyn did, he had to go to ground

:01:10. > :01:10.to get it because the German counterattack was at lightning

:01:11. > :01:31.speed. Chris Cargo loses out. He was so

:01:32. > :01:36.fortunate. He had not heard the call from people behind him. Fortunately

:01:37. > :01:41.for him, it hit the back of his opponent's stick. John Jermyn

:01:42. > :02:06.covering lots of ground and keeps possession for Ireland.

:02:07. > :02:10.Jackson was fortunate because he left the ball behind him when he

:02:11. > :02:14.drove them and he could have been penalised for obstruction. Good play

:02:15. > :02:25.from Michael Darling but eventually runs out of pitch. It is not over.

:02:26. > :02:31.The assault continues. Cargo will start things off again with the free

:02:32. > :02:38.hit. What a shock and 40 gold. What the score from Eugene Magee. That

:02:39. > :02:47.was an absolute rocket. Second and third phase. Back out to the 25,

:02:48. > :02:54.Nicholas Jacobi had to be unsighted. He flapped at it. The goalkeeper has

:02:55. > :03:00.missed it. It is so uncharacteristic. I do not know what

:03:01. > :03:08.he was thinking but he had gone to his left. His balance was off as the

:03:09. > :03:12.ball went past is right-hand. Eugene Magee has ripped it into the back of

:03:13. > :03:29.the net, one of the best goals in the tournament so far.

:03:30. > :03:33.The equaliser from Eugene Magee with under five minutes to play in the

:03:34. > :04:07.first-half. Once again David Harte getting the

:04:08. > :04:12.job done in the Irish goal. Not only making the same stop Mac it was just

:04:13. > :04:23.a little flick pass in. It had a touch to get it out. Back onto the

:04:24. > :04:47.foot of Tour de Jonathan Bell -- Jonathan Brown is

:04:48. > :04:50.covering lots of ground. How much confidence will be happy after

:04:51. > :04:55.levelling the score line? It will be an immense amount of confidence. The

:04:56. > :04:59.pattern of the scheme will not be a surprise. They don't it will have to

:05:00. > :05:03.weather a storm and it will be lots of German chances and David Harte

:05:04. > :05:07.had to be outstanding. The Judy would get opportunities if they were

:05:08. > :05:17.able to hold out. -- you've been Judy would do.

:05:18. > :05:27.The Irish have 2.5 minutes and a half to hold on and head into the

:05:28. > :05:31.break level. The Irish will have done their homework and will have

:05:32. > :05:36.studied what the Germans do. In this part of the game, the Germans will

:05:37. > :05:42.be patient and the Irish have to remain disciplined, keep their

:05:43. > :05:47.shape, do not give away possession. That was off the glove and behind,

:05:48. > :05:51.David Harte and the right place at the right time yet again.

:05:52. > :05:58.Absolutely. He is left-handed and did not even move. David Harte look

:05:59. > :06:11.to be surprised but it was great execution from Florian Fuchs.

:06:12. > :06:16.The Irish free hit will have to wait. 90 seconds of the first-half

:06:17. > :06:44.to play. Germany 1-1 Ireland. The Germans are unhappy that they

:06:45. > :06:51.have been put in that situation. That was a dangerous ball back into

:06:52. > :06:55.the middle. Ronan Gormley did well because he was under pressure with

:06:56. > :06:57.Germans on either side. The high ball came down awkwardly for him.

:06:58. > :07:14.The last-minute of the half. The Irish were putting pressure on

:07:15. > :07:18.Nicholas Jacobi. They have gone to the video umpire. I felt that the

:07:19. > :07:24.two Irish lawyers had got into each other's way. I thought it was Bell

:07:25. > :07:34.and Paul Gleghorne touched it in front of each other.

:07:35. > :07:41.It came off and Irish head. It certainly did. We are looking to see

:07:42. > :07:47.which stick it came off to start with. Initially it looked like a

:07:48. > :07:54.German stick then the edge of an Irish stick.

:07:55. > :08:11.My call is this a German hit out. Who is responsible for the dangers

:08:12. > :08:20.play? -- dangerous. The players seem happy that it is a free hit for the

:08:21. > :08:30.Germans. REFEREE: No reason to change your decision. Ireland have

:08:31. > :08:34.lost there are feral. That is the worst outcome of that trip to the

:08:35. > :08:40.video umpire. -- lost their video referral.

:08:41. > :08:49.Into the last 30 seconds of the half. There had been a slowdown when

:08:50. > :08:54.the video umpire was involved. The Ireland team the to maintain your

:08:55. > :09:01.concentration. That was a reverse shot. It was across the goal. It has

:09:02. > :09:08.gone in off of Paul Gleghorne, I think, but the umpire immediately

:09:09. > :09:14.said it was not a goal. The first time was a kick from David Harte.

:09:15. > :09:19.Back out to the same player. It came in off the defender but it was high

:09:20. > :09:23.and dangerous. At half-time, the Irish are very much in this match.

:09:24. > :09:30.The half-time score at the Deodoro Stadium, 1-1.

:09:31. > :09:36.Ireland showing they are more than a match for the Olympic champions and

:09:37. > :09:40.are still without a win at the 2016 Olympic Games but what the scalp it

:09:41. > :09:44.would be if they could take it off Germany. We are going to see the

:09:45. > :09:53.second half of this match on the BBC website. The website is the place to

:09:54. > :10:28.go to watch the rest of the match because we are going swimming.

:10:29. > :10:34.They give few people making their way towards us here, away from the

:10:35. > :10:39.Olympic of the centre but that is exactly where we are heading. There

:10:40. > :10:42.are so many interesting stories coming out of there, not least for

:10:43. > :10:50.the British swimmers. Let us join the three friends. Helen Skelton,

:10:51. > :10:57.Rebecca Adlington and Mark Foster. There are so many stories, aren't

:10:58. > :11:01.you? So many stories. Mass of data in the pool today. This evening, we

:11:02. > :11:06.are going to see some of the bigger showdowns in Olympic swimming. It'll

:11:07. > :11:11.be interesting to see how that plays out, Chad Le Clos and Michael

:11:12. > :11:16.Phelps, the 200 metres butterfly was so entertaining before they even got

:11:17. > :11:20.in the water. I spoke to Graham who is the coach of Chad le Clos and he

:11:21. > :11:25.said that Chad le Clos is constantly stealing down the Americans. It is

:11:26. > :11:38.this confidence thing and letting them know they are there.

:11:39. > :11:47.Watch, he is constantly looking at him. Tonight is the final of the 200

:11:48. > :11:53.metre butterfly. Michael Bell is ignoring him. Look at Chad le Clos.

:11:54. > :12:00.It is interesting and has always been that way. It is going to be

:12:01. > :12:09.such a busy final that I do not think it will be Michael Phelps and

:12:10. > :12:12.Chad le Clos. Staying up late this evening because you can see

:12:13. > :12:16.Siobhan-Marie O'Connor who has a brilliant chance of getting a medal.

:12:17. > :12:20.That is in the evening session. Before that there's lots of junk

:12:21. > :12:24.British swimmers in action in the heats. We are going to see a

:12:25. > :12:54.Glaswegian 19-year-old and the men's 100 metres. We are at hit five.

:12:55. > :13:04.COMMENTATOR: That was the replay of hit four. 48.8 seconds winning it.

:13:05. > :13:13.To go under the mass of milestones, to go under 50 is huge. To go under

:13:14. > :13:20.49, he has half a chance of making the semifinal, Dylan Carter.

:13:21. > :13:32.Four more heats to go. They might have to be faster than that, Andy.

:13:33. > :13:42.Duncan Scott goes for Great Britain in lane six. The label me and Amy

:13:43. > :13:44.used to be the world champion at that. He's not slow. People want to

:13:45. > :13:58.make the semifinal. Duncan Scott beside the Italian and

:13:59. > :14:12.a great opportunity he was forming in the European

:14:13. > :14:18.Juniors last year in 2015. It is his first Olympic Games. A member of

:14:19. > :14:24.that war by 400 metres squad at the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow.

:14:25. > :14:34.Three from the left-hand side is Duncan Scott from Great Britain in

:14:35. > :14:39.Lane six. And in seven is Magnini. In Lane one, the Greek swimmer has

:14:40. > :14:47.gone off like a rocket. Duncan Scott is going with him. Free from the

:14:48. > :14:56.right. Duncan Scott. Three tenths of a second behind. This is good from

:14:57. > :15:00.Duncan Scott. He has tracked the decathlete very well. He goes to the

:15:01. > :15:11.University of Stirling. His coach has done very well. Can he get 48?

:15:12. > :15:16.48.0. Well done. That is absolutely outstanding and it is a new British

:15:17. > :15:20.record. Well done, sir. That is outstanding from Duncan Scott. He

:15:21. > :15:24.will certainly make it through to the semifinals tonight and that is

:15:25. > :15:31.brilliant. There are 24 men in the next three heats who are

:15:32. > :15:32.absolutely... The nerves and adrenaline flowing like crazy at the

:15:33. > :15:47.moment. What a swim. Duncan Scott with a fantastic swim

:15:48. > :15:52.there, he has the men's relay coming up, and he's in that race.

:15:53. > :16:00.That was a fantastic swim, lovely clear water against some really

:16:01. > :16:08.strong swimmers. Magnini down in sixth place, he beat him by 1.4

:16:09. > :16:11.seconds... On the way into the Olympic Park

:16:12. > :16:15.this morning, one of our colleague said that Duncan Scott is one of the

:16:16. > :16:18.most exciting young prospects in the British team. That person is feeling

:16:19. > :16:25.pretty pleased with themselves right now! How fair is that you say? Very

:16:26. > :16:29.fair! On the back of that committee has dropped no .5 seconds over 100

:16:30. > :16:37.metres. Coming into Championships, you want to be at your best. He has

:16:38. > :16:41.blown himself away, and asked. Down that fast length he had a lot of

:16:42. > :16:48.speed. He has the 4x200 relay coming up. He can do a straight swim down,

:16:49. > :16:52.get back in the pool, interesting to see how he does, if he wants a place

:16:53. > :16:58.in that or the final... Tonight he has the semifinal of the 100, then

:16:59. > :17:01.the 4x200. It is a big day but what a swim.

:17:02. > :17:05.Smashing the British record, it is incredible. A busy day for him, but

:17:06. > :17:08.is he the kind of character who will thrive off this atmosphere and

:17:09. > :17:19.adrenaline of what has been going on? He will love it, you have the

:17:20. > :17:21.relay spot in place, and the 4x200 this evening.

:17:22. > :17:23.He is in good position for the relays. Let's see the next heat...

:17:24. > :17:33.COMMENTATOR: It is the first of the seeded heat. Look at that. Ning

:17:34. > :17:39.Zetao in Lane four. The world champion in this 100 metres

:17:40. > :17:44.freestyle. This is a fascinating heat, in three we have one of the

:17:45. > :17:47.swimmers who has previously tested positive for drugs, Vladimir

:17:48. > :17:55.Morozov. He was removed from Russia and then put back in. He is in lane

:17:56. > :18:00.three. Ning Zetao in four. In five, Santo Condorelli always goes out

:18:01. > :18:09.quickly. Marcelo Chierighini will go out like a rocket. On the left-hand

:18:10. > :18:12.side of that shot is Joseph Schooling, key could well challenge

:18:13. > :18:17.Michael Phelps for the 100 metre final. Look how fast he is going

:18:18. > :18:24.down this verse 25. Ning Zetao going quickly, and Schooling. Ning Zetao

:18:25. > :18:29.is one of your prerace favourites, in second place at the moment. The

:18:30. > :18:33.Russians were in Lane three is still with them, strong and straight arms,

:18:34. > :18:38.it is the middle lanes, dill holding the race now. Lane five, fascinating

:18:39. > :18:43.but I'm not sure if you can see close-up, Ning Zetao is amazing,

:18:44. > :18:49.pulling massive amounts of water coming through. Santo Condorelli and

:18:50. > :18:55.Schooling, a fascinating race. Did Schooling get it? Santo Condorelli

:18:56. > :19:01.first, Vladimir Morozov third, and Ning Zetao was in sixth. Wow! The

:19:02. > :19:09.whole race slower than Duncan Scott's race. By a street. 12 one

:19:10. > :19:16.hundredths of a second. It is interesting, Schooling on the left

:19:17. > :19:24.hand with a really good dive into the water.

:19:25. > :19:28.Right under, 50 metres. The surprise for us is Ning Zetao of China,

:19:29. > :19:35.insects, he may not make the semifinals. He may not make the

:19:36. > :19:40.final possibly because of Duncan Scott -- in sixth position.

:19:41. > :19:45.After six heats, Duncan Scott in place for a semifinal, he is still

:19:46. > :19:50.fastest. So far, two heats to go. Next, Benjamin Prout. You know him

:19:51. > :20:02.quite well, you mental hem, how is he coming into this quick and Mark

:20:03. > :20:08.-- prowled! -- Proud. I have not seen anyone like him, strength wise

:20:09. > :20:11.and physically, there is not an ounce of fat on him.

:20:12. > :20:16.He needs to be big to compete in this? Sprint is about a lot, but you

:20:17. > :20:20.want to stay light. You want to skate along the surface of the

:20:21. > :20:28.water, if you have a lot of power and don't weigh a lot come you can

:20:29. > :20:37.skim. The 50 will be his main, -- way a lot, you can skim. Let's see

:20:38. > :20:43.how Benjamin Proud gets on. COMMENTATOR: Proud at the top of the

:20:44. > :20:53.shot, a British record-holder. Red Hat in the top of the shot. The

:20:54. > :21:02.fasted seeded this second have is the Olympic champion.

:21:03. > :21:06.The super start with Caeleb Dressel of the USA. He is doing well for the

:21:07. > :21:14.American team, a brilliant split, this is the right place for Proud.

:21:15. > :21:18.Taking the race out, 22.894 Caeleb Dressel. A great first 50. Doing

:21:19. > :21:25.well. Caeleb Dressel doing fantastically. Ben Proud is behind.

:21:26. > :21:31.What a shame we can't see. That term was extraordinary. He was

:21:32. > :21:43.in the American 4x100. That touch was very close.

:21:44. > :21:49.Charmers get said. Duncan Scott would have been third in that one,

:21:50. > :22:00.Ben Proud unfortunately faded. 8.4 91. A world junior record for

:22:01. > :22:10.Carl charmers of Australia. 18 years of age. On the left of the

:22:11. > :22:17.shot -- Chalmers. That was interesting, and proud with them in

:22:18. > :22:18.the first 50. He is a strong swimmer, but Caeleb Dressel took him

:22:19. > :22:29.a part on the turn. Not even guaranteed in the

:22:30. > :22:36.semifinals. It is extraordinary. Proud, as the

:22:37. > :22:41.guys said, his start looked good, how much confidence will it get him

:22:42. > :22:46.for the 50? He got a bit lost in that turn and was not able to bring

:22:47. > :22:51.it back. He is obviously focused on that, thinks it is his best shout.

:22:52. > :22:58.To be fair, with Duncan Scott, he is definitely going to get that spot on

:22:59. > :23:02.the relay. He looks good for the 4x100 but I'm a bit disappointed I

:23:03. > :23:09.thought he would have more and challenge Scott for the relay spot.

:23:10. > :23:14.He looked good but he has two swim 50 in the next couple of days, his

:23:15. > :23:21.main event. He has always been stuck in between, do I do a bit more work

:23:22. > :23:26.or do my main event? We are fighting with the Brazilian

:23:27. > :23:36.crowds! Let's let our commentators fight with them on this one!

:23:37. > :23:42.We have the Brazilian commentators with us, if you hear a loud noise in

:23:43. > :23:47.30 seconds, it's that! In the centre, McEvoy of Australia, the

:23:48. > :23:58.third fastest man in history. Some big guys could go out if we aren't

:23:59. > :24:01.careful with this one. The Olympic champion could go out.

:24:02. > :24:09.McEvoy has a good start in the yellow hat of Australia. By far the

:24:10. > :24:13.fastest two of this year. Unusual for a 100 metre freestyle, in the

:24:14. > :24:25.yellow cab, a strong and high elbow action going into the turn. -- cap.

:24:26. > :24:31.Velimir Stjepanovic is not so fast. Also going very well at the bottom

:24:32. > :24:37.of the picture is the German swimmer, Damian Wierling. The two

:24:38. > :24:40.biggest guys could be out, fascinating. At the centre, Cameron

:24:41. > :24:59.McEvoy of Australia, and he gets it. There is a 48.4 and a 48.5, I'm not

:25:00. > :25:12.sure if there will be a swim off? We have Nathan Adrian in six.

:25:13. > :25:17.The Olympic reigning champion? Not for long.

:25:18. > :25:22.McEvoy had a good swim, a steady first length, then turning the

:25:23. > :25:25.burners on, 75 metres. He really looked fantastic, on the

:25:26. > :25:29.right of your shot. The last ten metres were really

:25:30. > :25:35.strong. Not as quick as Duncan Scott! He is in third. Duncan Scott

:25:36. > :25:40.is third fastest in the world after the heat of the men's 100 metre

:25:41. > :25:45.freestyle. He did the job, the job is to make the semifinals, the top

:25:46. > :25:51.16, but he nearly pushed out the Olympic champion and the world

:25:52. > :25:54.champion. I wonder if he will break the world record? That was an

:25:55. > :26:01.interesting swim from McEvoy, not the largest swimmer, very slight.

:26:02. > :26:08.Not the biggest unit, compared to some of the 100 metre freestyle

:26:09. > :26:16.swimmer is that you see. One of the quickest. Cameron McEvoy winning the

:26:17. > :26:20.men's 100 metre freestyle, pedestrian compared to his 47.0 he

:26:21. > :26:29.won the Australian trials in. Look at that. Some quick guys not

:26:30. > :26:40.going to make it in... So, Kyle Charmers goes in.

:26:41. > :26:46.Duncan Scott of Great Britain third fastest going into the semifinals.

:26:47. > :26:53.Game on, Duncan! Look at the bottom, the world champion and defending

:26:54. > :26:57.Olympic champion, Lucky boys! Duncan Scott going in third fastest

:26:58. > :27:01.into the semifinals meaning he will be in the first semifinal.

:27:02. > :27:08.What is better? Second semifinal in lane five. Know he will be... Yes he

:27:09. > :27:13.will! Thanks Mac knowledge! You want to be in the second because you want

:27:14. > :27:18.to see what the other guys have done will

:27:19. > :27:24.have done. We will see him shortly in the relay? He did not do any

:27:25. > :27:31.interviews, straight into the swimming pool, he will swim up and

:27:32. > :27:34.down for 20 or 30 minutes, easy. Get ready for the relay at the end

:27:35. > :27:38.of the session. Enough time to recover.

:27:39. > :27:46.Ben Proud did it. Let's hear from him. An opportunity to get in the

:27:47. > :27:48.water. In that first bit, you looked great? Yes, it felt like a good

:27:49. > :27:53.swim. Obviously, that time, it was fast

:27:54. > :28:00.from my PB. But we will see how it goes. I've

:28:01. > :28:06.been swimming faster than ever, but trying to get the race right at the

:28:07. > :28:10.time, it did not happen. The 50 is where all of your

:28:11. > :28:18.attention lies? Yes, it is what I've been training for. I am training for

:28:19. > :28:22.the 100. Duncan has a 48.0. He is amazingly

:28:23. > :28:27.talented, I think that we are in good hands in terms of Duncan.

:28:28. > :28:35.Now I can go back and focus on the 50. See you later in the week!

:28:36. > :28:38.For the flash and dash! I love it! In the last couple of years we've

:28:39. > :28:43.spoken a lot about Ben Proud and how we want him to have that confidence

:28:44. > :28:46.and arrogance, there he looks bigger and stronger and more relaxed than

:28:47. > :28:52.we've seen him in the last couple of years? He looks in the best shape.

:28:53. > :28:55.We had a conversation fair, I was a 50 metres, and everybody

:28:56. > :29:00.automatically goes that you are fast, do another thanks and back,

:29:01. > :29:05.your body make-up is in such a way that you only have speed. You go

:29:06. > :29:09.further and your body breaks down, you get lactic acid and your body

:29:10. > :29:14.blows up. He's been trying to do more work for the back end of the

:29:15. > :29:19.100, is the opportunity for a medal. It is like Rebecca, she could not

:29:20. > :29:23.sprint, that is her body make-up. He's disappointed with his time but

:29:24. > :29:28.good to getting there. A bit of a smile, nice for him to get his first

:29:29. > :29:32.swim out of the way? Yes, we often say to blow the cobwebs away and get

:29:33. > :29:37.into the pool, that is what he's done. Now he does not have to worry,

:29:38. > :29:42.not worry, but focus on the 4x100 by the end of the week. You can just

:29:43. > :29:47.focus on the 50 metres. Ben Proud put all of his eggs in that 50s

:29:48. > :29:51.basket, but Michael Phelps has a lot of eggs in his baskets, set your

:29:52. > :29:55.alarm clock, we will see Michael Phelps take on Chad le Clos. One of

:29:56. > :29:58.the most fiercely fought competitions in the 100 metre

:29:59. > :30:02.butterfly. Michael Phelps has taken his 19th Olympic medal, is he-man or

:30:03. > :30:23.machine? A huge gold medal for Michael Phelps

:30:24. > :30:26.and a new world record. I wonder if we have somebody that is going to

:30:27. > :30:40.replace Mark Spitz is the greatest ever swimmer. Can Michael Phelps go

:30:41. > :30:46.eight Gold Medal is in eight days? He is trying to set Olympic history

:30:47. > :30:47.and set swimming history. Eight days, eight gold medals, Michael

:30:48. > :31:04.Phelps is the greatest. These are his last Olympics and he

:31:05. > :31:05.will go out as the best ever. The most Olympic medals in history.

:31:06. > :31:22.Nobody has won more medals. Michael Phelps is back. Michael

:31:23. > :31:26.Phelps is coming out of retirement. The US Olympic swimmer Michael

:31:27. > :31:33.Phelps has been arrested. He will not be allowed to represent the

:31:34. > :31:35.United States, his second arrest for drink-driving, banned for competing

:31:36. > :31:44.for the United States for six months. Michael Phelps is heading to

:31:45. > :31:48.Rio. The showdown at Rio looms. Unbelievable form Michael Phelps,

:31:49. > :31:52.his 19th Gold Medal. He is a true champion.

:31:53. > :32:02.That is kind of creepy. He is a fascinating man. Everything he has

:32:03. > :32:06.done in the swimming pool, and everything he has done out of the

:32:07. > :32:12.swimming pool, he spoke publicly about his battle with Frank. He has

:32:13. > :32:16.that two years to come back. He had been and rehabilitation. What is

:32:17. > :32:20.fascinating what is going on out of the swimming pool. Even his coach

:32:21. > :32:24.has been doing some trash talking, saying he is in the best GP has ever

:32:25. > :32:28.been in. He looks like it. Especially after the relay on the

:32:29. > :32:32.first second night, he looked fantastic. We have seen through the

:32:33. > :32:37.rounds, the heats and the semifinals. He was struggling a

:32:38. > :32:41.little bit but you do not know if they were struggling -- holding

:32:42. > :32:47.back. It is Michael Phelps. You do not know what he will bring tonight.

:32:48. > :32:51.Human beings are very addictive creatures. His addiction was the

:32:52. > :32:56.swimming pool. That finished and he was time to find himself, but why

:32:57. > :33:02.do? We are addictive personalities and he got into something else. You

:33:03. > :33:06.got into his golf at one point. He thought, what can I control and I am

:33:07. > :33:17.good at doing? That was one reason why he came back to the swimming

:33:18. > :33:20.pool. He settled down, had a baby. Let us see how Aimee Willmott is

:33:21. > :33:28.getting on and she is up in the 200 metres butterfly.

:33:29. > :33:37.COMMENTATOR: Aimee Willmott is at the top of the shot. The European

:33:38. > :33:42.champion is in Lane four. Aimee Willmott swims in the Olympic pool

:33:43. > :33:48.in London and is coached by Lisa Bates. She is on the right hand side

:33:49. > :33:53.of that shot. The European champion of Franziska Hentke of Germany in

:33:54. > :33:58.Lane four. There's nobody who is utterly brilliant in this event so

:33:59. > :34:06.it is wide open. It is wide open. It is going to be interesting to see

:34:07. > :34:11.how Franziska Hentke does. She has the 200 metre medley final turning.

:34:12. > :34:19.It is about 45 metres -- minutes before the final. It is very tough.

:34:20. > :34:25.Zhang Yufei from China in game five is a strong competitor. She was

:34:26. > :34:32.overtaken by Lane four. Franziska Hentke is still going well in Lane

:34:33. > :34:42.seven. This is the halfway turn at 100 metres. 61, it should be

:34:43. > :34:47.comfortable for Franziska Hentke. Aimee Willmott is on the red hand

:34:48. > :34:55.side. She is in an OK possession and she can work down this third 50.

:34:56. > :35:00.Suzuka Hasegawa is in Lane three. The Korean is feeding Lane seven.

:35:01. > :35:01.Aimee Willmott Tim Ream one is doing very well, coming into the top

:35:02. > :35:07.three. Suzuka Hasegawa of Japan touched

:35:08. > :35:22.first and in the The Japanese woman's palms are very

:35:23. > :35:25.good. Suzuka Hasegawa, 16 years old. Her first major championships. On

:35:26. > :35:30.the left-hand side and the Black Cats and doing well. Franziska

:35:31. > :35:37.Hentke is doing well. She is believing to her left. It is

:35:38. > :35:46.difficult to keep your stroke balance. The final five metres.

:35:47. > :35:51.Suzuka Hasegawa wins it. Zhang Yufei did well to come back in second.

:35:52. > :36:00.Aimee Willmott finished in seventh. Not quite her best. It was good

:36:01. > :36:15.strong swimming from Suzuka Hasegawa. 16 years of age. These

:36:16. > :36:19.must be swimmers for 2020. It is about investment. They have

:36:20. > :36:24.increasing funding and started thinking about coaching and who they

:36:25. > :36:30.are talented stars will be. Talent identification and development. To

:36:31. > :36:35.the red hand side, you mentioned it, the middle of those lanes with the

:36:36. > :36:42.blackcap, a German looking over to the left. That is how she swims for

:36:43. > :36:52.stroke. Keeping your head low. It is quite helpful when the woman leading

:36:53. > :36:57.the race is out on the left. The 16-year-old Japanese lady, very good

:36:58. > :37:05.swim from her. Suzuka Hasegawa, lovely stuff, well done. We will see

:37:06. > :37:10.a similar but more experienced face in Tokyo in four years' time,

:37:11. > :37:15.possibly on the podium. She wins the first of the seeded teams. Zhang

:37:16. > :37:22.Yufei in second. The European champion Franziska Hentke inferred.

:37:23. > :37:30.Bringing up to speed up Andy Murray who is hoping to defend his Olympic

:37:31. > :37:33.title, he is up one set one break. If you want to watch uninterrupted

:37:34. > :37:40.coverage of Andy Murray then you can do so on the Red Button.

:37:41. > :37:48.Meanwhile, everyone older swimming, we move into heat three of the 200

:37:49. > :37:54.metres butterfly. The mighty Katinka Hosszu is in this.

:37:55. > :38:10.COMMENTATOR: She is in Lane six. Katinka Hosszu is not there.

:38:11. > :38:15.Siobhan-Marie O'Connor as a massive threat. I think she has pulled out

:38:16. > :38:19.of a race that she could have won. I am quite surprised about that. She

:38:20. > :38:24.has this massive reputation of going all around the world swimming every

:38:25. > :38:27.single race under the sun, back to back to back. Then she comes to the

:38:28. > :38:35.Olympics and I am surprised she is not deciding to do this one. She is

:38:36. > :38:42.worried. The order of that the 200 metre flies semi-estimate and and

:38:43. > :38:51.then the medley. I would not do a 200-metre butterfly before the 200

:38:52. > :38:52.metre medley. I would not do a 200 metres butterfly. Four. I have done

:38:53. > :39:10.one. That Lee Smith Sunni Hor shape in

:39:11. > :39:19.Lane for. The black hat of the Japanese woman again. Japan are

:39:20. > :39:28.having a good meet. Two Japanese swimmers, very strong in this event.

:39:29. > :39:31.It is an open field. No standouts. You can see the Japanese hammering a

:39:32. > :39:36.great time in the final tomorrow night. These ladies are tried to

:39:37. > :39:40.qualify for this evening, the semifinals. Tempi start local time

:39:41. > :40:06.and 2am in the UK. It is Camille Adams of the USA

:40:07. > :40:14.first. Natsumi Hoshi is second. And Anja Klinar of the dash of Slovenia

:40:15. > :40:18.right at the top. It is interesting the sideways believing, you do not

:40:19. > :40:22.have to lift your head quite as high up so your energy is used to full

:40:23. > :40:26.you forwards, to propel you forwards rather than propel you up to make

:40:27. > :40:31.sure you have enough gap between the chin and your water to take a

:40:32. > :40:35.breath. If you do believe to one side, your whole body times one bit.

:40:36. > :40:46.You have to maintain power through the water. It is a great shot and a

:40:47. > :40:52.wonderful explanation. She is winning this race. She is

:40:53. > :41:01.accelerating towards the wall. Digging in. It is not easy to do,

:41:02. > :41:06.you have to have a flexible net. She might need a chiropractor when she

:41:07. > :41:11.is older. Cammile Adams of the USA wins it. It is a good time. The

:41:12. > :41:23.Japanese putting another swimmer into the semifinals tonight. Natsumi

:41:24. > :41:28.Hoshi. And a third was Brianna Throssell of Australia. The

:41:29. > :41:36.Australians have had not had the best competition so far. It worked

:41:37. > :41:40.believing to decide for Adams. Herself and Francesca Henk are going

:41:41. > :41:44.to be in a similar position, possibly need each other in the

:41:45. > :41:51.semifinals. We'll have to see how the lanes work out. Look at that. It

:41:52. > :42:03.enables her head to get really low down. It is wonky, the right arm is

:42:04. > :42:07.going in earlier than the left arm. Natsumi Hoshi, for me, is stronger.

:42:08. > :42:13.It is unknown how much the swimmers are going. Particularly when there

:42:14. > :42:16.are not so many entries. Only 28 entries and 16 go through. You only

:42:17. > :42:31.need to beat 12. The results, Adams won it. Natsumi

:42:32. > :42:36.Hoshi in second and Brianna Throssell in third.

:42:37. > :42:42.And Natalie Adams looked so surprised that time. Her reaction

:42:43. > :42:46.was amazing, I cannot believe it. The colleges are you of the time you

:42:47. > :42:55.are doing when you're in the pool? It depends. He only swims one

:42:56. > :43:07.length. I get 802 it was different. It is different when you are

:43:08. > :43:10.swimming the distance events. The fact that Katinka Hosszu did not

:43:11. > :43:17.come out, it was a surprise. She was on the starkness. I think she looked

:43:18. > :43:23.at Siobhan last night. The semifinals are just before the

:43:24. > :43:29.medley. It Siobhan was swimming 2.0 nine. Unless she rests herself, at

:43:30. > :43:35.Siobhan will be told this evening. She wants to go through this meet

:43:36. > :43:40.unbeaten. Siobhan-Marie O'Connor, she is running scared, Katinka

:43:41. > :43:45.Hosszu. Let us see what happens in hit four.

:43:46. > :43:50.COMMENTATOR: The final heat of the women's 200 metre butterfly.

:43:51. > :44:01.Madeline Groves as fast as coming into this.

:44:02. > :44:20.They know exactly what they have to do in the final heat. 2.07 minutes

:44:21. > :44:28.should make it. But yellow hat in the middle is Madeline Groves.

:44:29. > :44:31.Terrible start from Mireia Belmonte. Madeline Groves making certain other

:44:32. > :44:37.start. Going into this race the fastest in the world. Franziska

:44:38. > :44:51.Hentke is three tense of a second behind. Zhou Yilin is in second

:44:52. > :44:58.place but looking pedestrian. She did not have the greatest 100 metre

:44:59. > :45:08.butterfly. She looks good and is working quite hard, Madeline Groves.

:45:09. > :45:11.England two, the threat is going to come from there and that means six.

:45:12. > :45:18.Madeline Groves is labelling slightly.

:45:19. > :45:28.She looks comfortable on the right-hand side, Hali Flickinger.

:45:29. > :45:33.Profits are starting to sag a little bit. She is now almost pushing

:45:34. > :45:40.through the water instead of being flat. Contrast that with Lane two.

:45:41. > :45:49.Very strong and powerful. The field is catching up Madeline Groves. Five

:45:50. > :45:52.and six coming back at her. Mireia Belmonte tried to make up with her

:45:53. > :45:56.disappointment of two silver medals at the London Olympics. She was

:45:57. > :46:08.injured last year. She is in Lane five. Madeline Groves is trying to

:46:09. > :46:15.hold on and she has to be careful. She is looking tired. Coming through

:46:16. > :46:30.in six, it looks like Liliana Szilagyi from Hungary. Mireia

:46:31. > :46:32.Belmonte wins it in the end. Madeline Groves, interesting way of

:46:33. > :46:42.swimming. She went out very hard. It was too hard to cool, Groves went

:46:43. > :46:47.out and dived back a bit, Hali Flickinger took it over on the final

:46:48. > :46:49.50, slowing up, and then Mireia Belmonte came through, powerful at

:46:50. > :46:54.the end. It's always good to see the swimmers

:46:55. > :46:58.who... Keep an eye on those who have the

:46:59. > :47:02.pace and energy to last the full length and extend their lead in the

:47:03. > :47:05.last ten metres. Obviously, with that technique, do

:47:06. > :47:13.not let the field get away from you too much.

:47:14. > :47:18.The stroke rate from Madeline Groves surprised me, she was really going

:47:19. > :47:26.for it. Snatching a little. Trying too hard? She needs to chill a

:47:27. > :47:31.little bit! Take a chill pill. She hung tough, going out hard, it looks

:47:32. > :47:35.like the wheels were falling off at the 150 turn, but she did well.

:47:36. > :47:45.The results... Zhou Yilin wintered, quickly.

:47:46. > :47:51.-- Mireia Belmonte wins it. Should be enough to make it through. It was

:47:52. > :47:58.quite a fast seat overall. Let's have a look at the semifinal list.

:47:59. > :48:01.She was fourth in the heats, fifth through to the semifinals.

:48:02. > :48:09.Back from injury, Mireia Belmonte is looking good, the fastest in. Two

:48:10. > :48:28.Americans. And the European champion Hentke only in ninth.

:48:29. > :48:39.FUNKY MUSIC COMMENTATOR: A good start, Adam

:48:40. > :48:47.Peaty is with them, it's a good start from him, and very good is the

:48:48. > :48:51.ex-recordholder from South Africa. The best reaction in the whole field

:48:52. > :49:00.by a long way. Vandenberg cannot live with him, Peaty with a great

:49:01. > :49:03.first leg. Adam Peaty is ahead of the world

:49:04. > :49:06.record. You can see, and feel, Vandenberg on

:49:07. > :49:15.his shoulder. One body length ahead, streaking

:49:16. > :49:19.away. This is quite extraordinary, absolutely phenomenal from Great

:49:20. > :49:23.Britain's Adam Peaty. Oceans of clear water between Adam Peaty and

:49:24. > :49:28.the rest of the world, bringing it home, this is utterly brilliant.

:49:29. > :49:32.Fantastic, Adam Peaty takes Olympic gold for Britain, winning by an

:49:33. > :49:41.absolute street. A wonderful world record, my goodness! 57.1 three.

:49:42. > :49:44.HELEN: That was Britain's first Olympic gold for a man in the pool

:49:45. > :49:50.since 1988. We don't get tired of seeing that?

:49:51. > :49:54.I don't think we ever will. Definitely not. Fantastic, I think

:49:55. > :49:59.that he is still on a high from that one. To win in such style, 1.5

:50:00. > :50:03.seconds, how significant is that time in that distance?

:50:04. > :50:07.Huge, before he broke the world record he went 57.9, that was nearly

:50:08. > :50:12.a second faster, at the middle of last year.

:50:13. > :50:15.He has got faster and faster, that is daily 1.5 seconds quicker than

:50:16. > :50:21.anyone else in the world over 100 metres, to let people know, it is

:50:22. > :50:24.not 800 or 1500 metres, it is a short event, normally one by

:50:25. > :50:28.hundreds of seconds. They aren't won by 1.5 seconds, he

:50:29. > :50:32.has just taken breast road to another level.

:50:33. > :50:36.Even if you look at the top ten performances of all time --

:50:37. > :50:39.breaststroke. It's always Adam Peaty! They will

:50:40. > :50:43.all be looking, let me break it down, look at the underwater

:50:44. > :50:45.footage, can you see what he's doing to bring it?

:50:46. > :50:49.He is doing something differently, he is not just a better athlete.

:50:50. > :50:54.When you win the Olympic gold, what is going on in his world right now?

:50:55. > :50:59.He still has the 4x100 metre relay by the end of the week, he will be

:51:00. > :51:03.focusing on that, put the medal in his drawer, he is not doing the 200

:51:04. > :51:07.metres breaststroke he did not qualify so Andrew Willis is going in

:51:08. > :51:09.with Craig Benson, a bit of a surprise.

:51:10. > :51:13.They will be thinking, where's Michael Jamieson and Ross Murdoch?

:51:14. > :51:17.Michael Jamieson won the silver medal in the last Olympics and did

:51:18. > :51:20.not qualify for the competition, Ross missed out on bird.

:51:21. > :51:26.Even though he is the European champion and posted Dutch a quick

:51:27. > :51:29.Peaty time this year. -- third. It is all on Craig and

:51:30. > :51:33.Willis. It feels a bit mean, there's been a

:51:34. > :51:36.lot of talk in the swimming world as to who should do the 200 metre

:51:37. > :51:39.breaststroke. But Andrew Willis did the time and

:51:40. > :51:43.what he needed to do. How nice would it be to see him move

:51:44. > :51:47.things on? We are fortunate in the UK, in

:51:48. > :51:52.breaststroke events, we have a lot of people, people say why isn't Adam

:51:53. > :51:55.Peaty in there? Murdoch or Jamieson? They are three

:51:56. > :51:59.of the worlds best but do not make the team. We have a policy where in

:52:00. > :52:05.first and second trials, if you do the time, you qualify.

:52:06. > :52:09.In that event we are best in the world, we have so much depth. We

:52:10. > :52:13.have spoken a lot this week about what is going on in the lead up to

:52:14. > :52:15.be swimming, it does not matter, the man racing is Andrew Willis, let's

:52:16. > :52:27.find out some more about him. You are at your second games, how

:52:28. > :52:32.excited are you to return to the Olympic stage? Very. For me, I've

:52:33. > :52:36.been saying this, it is controlled excitement.

:52:37. > :52:42.Going to London, a bit younger then, for me it was the highlight.

:52:43. > :52:47.I'm not sure if I got lost in the excitement, I was determined and

:52:48. > :52:51.focused. A massive diversion, Andrew Willis makes three... You got to the

:52:52. > :52:55.final in London, how much they benefit is it going into your second

:52:56. > :53:01.Olympics, having it in your mental locker? It is huge. Going through

:53:02. > :53:10.the rounds at the Olympics, it is everything to every athlete, you get

:53:11. > :53:13.there and the heats are that bit quicker, the semis.

:53:14. > :53:17.There is a real feel to it. Making sure that you put yourself in

:53:18. > :53:21.the final, and putting yourself in the next.

:53:22. > :53:25.At the moment, in Britain, breaststroke is huge.

:53:26. > :53:31.I feel more practised at it, going to trials. I almost feel like I am

:53:32. > :53:35.in a world-class final just train to qualify for the Olympics. You are

:53:36. > :53:40.very experienced, you'd been on the big stage for years. How important

:53:41. > :53:45.is that and useful is it? I think now I know what to expect, I think

:53:46. > :53:49.you go to the big stages, the Olympics seems to be a step above.

:53:50. > :53:54.It is a huge occasion for me. I make sure that I take a step back

:53:55. > :54:00.from anything going on. And really focus on myself. Because, there will

:54:01. > :54:06.be nerves, and excitement. It is a huge stage two beyond. I want to

:54:07. > :54:11.control those -- two beyond. My hope is to get a medal and it

:54:12. > :54:14.always will be. HELEN: He has hit the nail on the

:54:15. > :54:19.head with controlled excitement, he is a measured and clever young man?

:54:20. > :54:24.Definitely. He's a lovely person to have on the team. He makes everyone

:54:25. > :54:28.laugh. He's a calming person to be around. Andrew Willis goes in heat

:54:29. > :54:36.four, Craig Benson in heat five, let's join heat two of the men's 200

:54:37. > :54:39.metre breaststroke. COMMENTATOR: Heat two or five of the men's 200

:54:40. > :54:48.metre breaststroke. The Brazilian fastest seed is in

:54:49. > :54:53.lane four. Nicholas Quinn of Ireland is in lane three... The Irish are

:54:54. > :54:58.having a good meet so far. Shane Ryan breaking the Irish record

:54:59. > :55:07.on the 100 metres backstroke, going at 53.8.

:55:08. > :55:13.Then on the freestyle, he did well. This is going to be interesting. The

:55:14. > :55:20.last of the unseeded heats. Mick Quinn of Ireland in Lane three,

:55:21. > :55:25.at the University of Edinburgh -- Nicholas Quinn. He is a psychology

:55:26. > :55:35.student. That will be useful! Breathe deeply!

:55:36. > :55:42.O! Bringing the swimmers back-up. Too much noise in the crowd.

:55:43. > :55:46.Whistling. The crowd, not the most

:55:47. > :55:48.knowledgeable international crowd here.

:55:49. > :55:52.There was some cheering as the swimmers took their marks. We

:55:53. > :55:56.actually saw a swimmer the other day go in before the gun, it does not

:55:57. > :55:59.happen often. Tears as he was getting outcome he

:56:00. > :56:05.walked away from Spain, but they brought him back. You are not

:56:06. > :56:11.allowed a false start. He was off and one of the referees got him,

:56:12. > :56:13.they said that they thought that he was disturbed by the noise so they

:56:14. > :56:19.got him again. We said...

:56:20. > :56:22.I had to say it is bizarre, there is sometimes background music as the

:56:23. > :56:27.future on. Still going on, they have not put it

:56:28. > :56:31.off, silence at the start. It is difficult for the crowd to be quiet

:56:32. > :56:38.when there is music on in the background. In Lane four, Tales

:56:39. > :56:50.Cerdeira Brazil going well. Also doing well is the Colombian

:56:51. > :56:53.participant in Lane one. Tales Cerdeira in Lane four doing

:56:54. > :56:57.well. He is doing really well. He has a

:56:58. > :57:01.commanding lead. Going very nicely and strongly. It does not look like

:57:02. > :57:08.he is overworking. You may be able to hear the crowd lifting, every

:57:09. > :57:12.time his head comes up they cheer. It helps his rhythm, if they get in

:57:13. > :57:16.the rhythm, it's useful, out of rhythm it is not!

:57:17. > :57:23.They really are giving it some thing, this crowd! Wonderful to see.

:57:24. > :57:33.Not bad at all. The world record was set up as a 61 seven.

:57:34. > :57:38.-- 60 1.7. I have done a fewer of these races, and you do not want to

:57:39. > :57:42.go underwater on the turn. Your breath is just bursting out of your

:57:43. > :57:47.lungs, in Lane three Mick Quinn is doing a brilliant job for Ireland.

:57:48. > :57:53.Letting the Brazilian take paste -- Nicholas Quinn. This could be

:57:54. > :57:56.perfect for him. I'm not sure if the Brazilian will stand it along, this

:57:57. > :58:01.will be hurting. He has a quick look over.

:58:02. > :58:05.This is great, it really is. From the University of Edinburgh, he

:58:06. > :58:09.is actually from Castlebar, Ireland, and decided to move over to a great

:58:10. > :58:14.programme in Edinburgh. He challenges the Brazilian for the

:58:15. > :58:17.lead. He is a real athlete. He has taken him, getting ahead.

:58:18. > :58:25.A bit of a crowd spoiler this one, Quinn comes through.

:58:26. > :58:30.11.2 is his time. Very good indeed, come on!

:58:31. > :58:35.Just outside of his entry time, but winning the last of the unseeded

:58:36. > :58:40.heats. That was a good swim from Quinn, he must have thought that he

:58:41. > :58:46.was flying! Lane seven, finishing strongly. Just

:58:47. > :58:55.beating Lane seven, Lane eight, Yannick

:58:56. > :59:00.Kaeser. You can look at the time and be disappointed, but that was a

:59:01. > :59:08.wonderful breaststroke race. The Brazilian went out strongly. A

:59:09. > :59:15.long stroke but not able to speed it up enough.

:59:16. > :59:19.Quinn in the white cap. There is his team, cheering him on.

:59:20. > :59:23.Nice high arm action. Well done! A good half of a length

:59:24. > :59:28.ahead of the Brazilian, just down out of shot.

:59:29. > :59:35.Two swimmers very close to him. Ireland's Nicholas Quinn... That's

:59:36. > :59:45.unfair ! That's not right. I must practice

:59:46. > :59:48.that! He is a fabulous athlete, he is a basketball player, Gaelic

:59:49. > :59:53.player, hurling player... He wins heat two of the men's 200

:59:54. > :59:59.metre breaststroke. Very good!

:00:00. > :00:06.HELEN: Congratulations to Andy Murray, this is match point as he

:00:07. > :00:10.takes on Monaco of Argentina. As we are about to see, it is a great day

:00:11. > :00:15.for Andy Murray or cause he's going through to the third round...

:00:16. > :00:18.A longer wryly than expected, come on, Andy, put it to bed! There we

:00:19. > :00:34.go. He put it to bed pretty quickly. Simply done, says Andy Murray

:00:35. > :00:38.through to the third round. He is having a good year. On course to

:00:39. > :00:51.defend that title. Back in the pool, it is hate number three. -- heat.

:00:52. > :01:04.There are some fabulous swimmers. The defending Olympic champion in

:01:05. > :01:21.lane five is 22-macro. -- Daniel Gyurta.

:01:22. > :01:29.Alexander Dale Owen was massively spec did. -- massively well respect

:01:30. > :01:44.did. I do wish they would turn off that

:01:45. > :02:08.music, it is of putting forward the swimmers. A soup start.

:02:09. > :02:18.I did fancy him for a medal. Nice long stroke under. Vandenberg --

:02:19. > :02:26.Cameron Van Der Burgh, second from left. Very strong 50. It is

:02:27. > :02:30.interesting, even the strength of Adam Peaty on the 100 metres, that

:02:31. > :02:35.Cameron Van Der Burgh is entering the 200m. I think Adam Peaty might

:02:36. > :02:59.have a go at the 200m in the future. You sure speed, bounce off the

:03:00. > :03:04.walls. If you have got speed going in, it helps you with the speed

:03:05. > :03:13.going out. Going really well now, 32-macro of Russia coming back --

:03:14. > :03:39.Ilya Khomenko. It could go here. Josh Prenot just

:03:40. > :03:43.missed it at the American trials. Still holding a long gliding stroke.

:03:44. > :04:01.The Russian coming back at him. Koseki did the job. The defending

:04:02. > :04:08.Olympic champion, Daniel Gyurta did not do well at all. He ended up in

:04:09. > :04:14.six position. I am not sure he will make the semi-finals. I think it

:04:15. > :04:30.will be under 11. We have not seen him all year. His times have not

:04:31. > :04:40.ranked. This man. I wonder if he had given it more effort at the end. He

:04:41. > :04:46.did ease up. Powerful. Koseki from Japan. Winning the first of the

:04:47. > :04:57.seeded heats of the 200m breast stroke. That is the result. Koseki

:04:58. > :05:08.Winslet, Ilya Khomenko is second. China are third. Cameron Van Der

:05:09. > :05:11.Burgh is seventh. You look at what has just happened with Daniel Gyurta

:05:12. > :05:19.and it underlines how impressive Michael Phelps is. To hang onto that

:05:20. > :05:24.gold medal is a long time. Even before the last Olympics he was up

:05:25. > :05:29.there. It is so hard to stay at the top of your game and he has got

:05:30. > :05:34.slower every year. Let us talk about Andrew Willis. What are his chances

:05:35. > :05:39.of getting himself in the mix for a medal? He needs to make it to the

:05:40. > :05:43.semi-finals and then the final, though through the rounds. I think

:05:44. > :05:48.he will be confident, he is fourth in the world rankings but the fact

:05:49. > :05:53.that he trains with Siobhan-Marie O'Connor and Jazz Carlin, that will

:05:54. > :05:59.give him confidence. Controlled confidence, let us see how he goes.

:06:00. > :06:07.That is absolutely what you need here. The world champion from

:06:08. > :06:19.Germany, Marco Koch in lane number four. Andrew Willis goes in five,

:06:20. > :06:29.the red hat of Great Britain. Heat number four of them 200m

:06:30. > :06:38.Breaststroke. Well, in that last heat, I am sure the swimmers will be

:06:39. > :06:41.relieved to see that he is not there, Daniel Gyurta. Marco Koch is

:06:42. > :06:47.in lane for an Andrew Willis has started well, lovely long gliding

:06:48. > :06:53.stroke. He is such a consistent performer. Since his debut he has

:06:54. > :07:00.made the final of every long course and short course. He has been

:07:01. > :07:06.focusing on this competition. In third place, nice, long, steady

:07:07. > :07:17.stroke. He has actually worked on maps. Five or six strokes less in

:07:18. > :07:20.the whole race. Making it more of an efficient stroke, quite important

:07:21. > :07:27.for him to work on efficiency. Looking good. It is important that

:07:28. > :07:34.he picks up the stroke. Quite a short stroke. A quick stroke and he

:07:35. > :07:47.was adjusting the stroke so he made the wall at a fool 's rogue. Coming

:07:48. > :07:54.through quite strongly. I would like to see Andrew Willis increase his

:07:55. > :08:02.stroke rate. At some point you have to pick it up. He is still

:08:03. > :08:09.struggling very long. The long stroke of Andrew Willis in five.

:08:10. > :08:16.Marco Koch is starting to move. He looks very good. Ippei Watanabe is

:08:17. > :08:25.in lane three. Andrew Willis is going. Look at that, three strokes,

:08:26. > :08:33.a real glide. He is overtaking Marco Koch now. Fascinating from Andrew

:08:34. > :08:43.Willis. Do not lose that in the semi-finals! Absolutely perfect. You

:08:44. > :08:53.could say. I did say! Andrew Willis, well done. Big tech in the box for

:08:54. > :09:06.the heats. Andrew Willis wins the second to last seeded heat of the

:09:07. > :09:12.200m Breaststroke. 2:8.9 two. The world champion, Marco Koch 2.8 .9

:09:13. > :09:33.eight. -- 2:8.9 eight. One arm struck first for Andrew

:09:34. > :09:44.Willis. Marco Koch has asked the German government for 1 million

:09:45. > :09:52.euros if he wins. It is a big call that Andrew Willis looked very good,

:09:53. > :10:01.winning their second heat -- the fourth hate. Talk us through his

:10:02. > :10:10.tactics. He held back and in the last 50 metres, pushed it through.

:10:11. > :10:14.His third turn, a great big ride in. Let us talk about Craig Benson

:10:15. > :10:19.because he trains alongside Duncan Scott, will he have been watching

:10:20. > :10:25.his team-mates? Of course. Especially someone that you train

:10:26. > :10:30.with. It is one of these things, if your team-mates are swimming well,

:10:31. > :10:36.when you are in heavy training, when you rest, you wonder if you can

:10:37. > :10:42.still do it, you know you're going to swim fast. Hope Liam Craig Benson

:10:43. > :10:52.can build on that and use the success -- hopefully. Let us hope

:10:53. > :11:00.so. Craig Benson is going in lane number six in the final heat. He is

:11:01. > :11:09.alongside Kevin Cordes and Josh Prenot. At the American trials, Josh

:11:10. > :11:15.Prenot got a new American record and missed the world record by a tenth

:11:16. > :11:23.of a second. It is his first swim here and I am really looking forward

:11:24. > :11:30.to this. A very good experience for Craig Benson. He will be three lanes

:11:31. > :11:34.from the bottom of the shot. Big kick underwater. Three from the left

:11:35. > :11:46.air. The red part of Great Britain, Craig Benson. He made the Olympic

:11:47. > :11:54.team on this 200m. He swam the 100 metres at the London games. He made

:11:55. > :12:07.the semifinal of the European Championships this year in the 200m.

:12:08. > :12:18.The Brazilian in lane seven and the crowd starting to get mind him. He

:12:19. > :12:25.is letting Kevin Cordes to work. Nice long gliding strokes. Craig

:12:26. > :12:34.Benson will have to do some work. He could be in six or seven days. First

:12:35. > :12:37.over is Kevin Cordes from the USA but Josh Prenot is right next to him

:12:38. > :12:43.and looks very comfortable. He is starting to make a move, Kevin

:12:44. > :12:50.Cordes has gone early. He has got some work to do, Benson. It is very

:12:51. > :13:03.close. He still can come through. Beautiful swimming there from aunt

:13:04. > :13:13.and chap called. Kevin Cordes is half a second hind -- Anton

:13:14. > :13:17.Chupkov?. He will have to pick it up to the left of your shop there. Led

:13:18. > :13:24.out by Anton Chupkov who is increasing his stroke. Anton Chupkov

:13:25. > :13:29.and very quick stroke. Kevin Cordes might get caught here. This is an

:13:30. > :13:40.amazing swimmer from Anton Chupkov?. Let us check the world record. Anton

:13:41. > :13:47.Chupkov was first, second was Kevin Cordes, third was Josh Prenot and

:13:48. > :13:51.Craig Benson was fourth and I think his time will be enough. It will be

:13:52. > :13:58.close but I think he has made the semifinal. It could be 15th place

:13:59. > :14:07.but I think he has made it. It is tight. Anton Chupkov is furthest

:14:08. > :14:14.away and Kevin Cordes is nearest to us. Anton Chupkov came in eighth

:14:15. > :14:22.ranked in the world. Speeding up his stroke here. As he came down. Good

:14:23. > :14:26.high stroke. Gets all are meant he can get from the hip movement, kicks

:14:27. > :14:37.his arms forward, legs have to be ready to do that. Josh Prenot,

:14:38. > :14:45.really disappointing from him. Confirmation after that final heat,

:14:46. > :14:50.Anton Chupkov wins it. USA in two and three and Craig Benson I think

:14:51. > :14:55.has made it into the semifinal. That might be just enough, that is fine

:14:56. > :15:05.for me. Let us see if we can get qualifiers. Here we go. Anton

:15:06. > :15:09.Chupkov goes into the semi-finals fastest, Koseki second, look at

:15:10. > :15:14.that, Andrew Willis is third fastest, he will be next to Anton

:15:15. > :15:20.Chupkov and Marco Koch in their semifinal tonight. Two competitors

:15:21. > :15:28.from Great Britain there. Very good indeed.

:15:29. > :15:36.Andrew Willis goes into the semifinal in third and he is with

:15:37. > :15:43.Sharon. Well done, while waiting, you were giving the boy 's heart

:15:44. > :15:46.failure! I could see Marco. We wanted to control it this morning,

:15:47. > :15:52.to try to progress through the round and it was pretty tough because they

:15:53. > :15:57.are going quick in the morning. I turned and had a cheeky look on the

:15:58. > :16:05.last turn and I had to up it a bit. It is a really open 200. Definitely.

:16:06. > :16:10.It is all to play for getting into the final. Do you enjoy swimming

:16:11. > :16:16.with a long stroke? Will that be the planned tonight? Yes, a bit longer

:16:17. > :16:23.and maybe try to pick up the first 50 a little bit. But breast Roque is

:16:24. > :16:27.so technical so you cannot rush it. I try to pick it up, I tend to go

:16:28. > :16:34.backwards. Keep it long and add a bit of power. Your camp is looking

:16:35. > :16:39.very happy? We are having a great games so far, the girls have been

:16:40. > :16:47.great, it is inspirational and I just tried to put myself in a

:16:48. > :16:52.position to get into the final. We will see Andrew Ellis a bit later

:16:53. > :16:58.and we will see Helen and the swimming team later -- Andrew

:16:59. > :17:03.Willis. Let's bring you up-to-date with the equestrian because they are

:17:04. > :17:06.in the final day of the eventing. As you have been hearing from us,

:17:07. > :17:12.unfortunately Great Britain ran out of contention in the team event.

:17:13. > :17:16.William Fox-Pitt was leading alongside the other British riders

:17:17. > :17:19.but unfortunately no team medal after the show-jumping but William

:17:20. > :17:23.Fox-Pitt was still into the top 25 going into the individual event so

:17:24. > :17:29.that was a slim chance he could come away with a medal. We are going to

:17:30. > :17:39.go and join them at the equestrian centre to see how he gets on.

:17:40. > :17:47.William Fox-Pitt led the dressage, he had that one unlucky technical

:17:48. > :17:54.refusal yesterday and he starts this final phase on 67.4 in 18th place.

:17:55. > :18:01.Three British clear rounds, in fact, four. The other three jumped double

:18:02. > :18:07.clears, a really good way to end after what was such a disappointing

:18:08. > :18:18.day yesterday. That was a brilliant turn from William going into that

:18:19. > :18:29.oxer. Not far off. Good recovery. A tight turn but got straight to the

:18:30. > :18:38.oxer by the gate. Another stand-off at that oxer. He looks fresher in

:18:39. > :18:44.this round than he did this morning. He is taking quite a hold. He did

:18:45. > :18:49.jump a good round this morning. That is a big one and a flyer at the

:18:50. > :18:55.last! A good way to end. Such a promising start but there we go,

:18:56. > :19:02.that is eventing, up one moment and down the next. He stays on 67.4 also

:19:03. > :19:06.no medal for Britain or William Fox-Pitt at an individual but he

:19:07. > :19:12.will finish with two clear rounds on the final day.

:19:13. > :19:18.A really strong finish for William Fox-Pitt in the individual eventing

:19:19. > :19:23.and if you want to see the closing stages of the individual equestrian

:19:24. > :19:30.eventing, you can head on to the Red Button and it is also on the BBC

:19:31. > :19:34.sport website and app. It is time for us to go back inside the

:19:35. > :19:36.Aquatics Centre. There has been a lot of noise, what have we got

:19:37. > :19:45.coming up? Welcome back, we're into the crowd

:19:46. > :20:06.pleasing event at the heats, the heats of the men's 4x200 relay.

:20:07. > :20:13.This first heat in the men's 4x200 metres freestyle relay and in the

:20:14. > :20:21.centre in the white hat, did about leading is Team USA. Going well in

:20:22. > :20:28.lane seven in -- is South Africa. Interestingly, South Africa not

:20:29. > :20:36.putting in their fastest swimmer who won the individual silver medal in

:20:37. > :20:40.the 200 freestyle, Chad Le Clos but he has the 200 fly this evening but

:20:41. > :20:44.it is a bit of a risk. It is because they need to qualify and bring him

:20:45. > :20:50.in after his 200 flights but they are looking good at the moment with

:20:51. > :20:55.Brown doing the work. France in second place and America less than a

:20:56. > :21:02.second behind. Look at that. Second left from your picture, making a big

:21:03. > :21:07.move on this third 15. Realising what an important job the opening

:21:08. > :21:10.swim is. And the American in the white hat in the centre is quite a

:21:11. > :21:18.long way back, slightly surprising to me. I expect him to come back

:21:19. > :21:24.hard on the final 50 of this but look at Brown, he is going very well

:21:25. > :21:35.indeed. Brown in lane seven for South Africa. And the Frenchman in

:21:36. > :21:40.lane six. And the Brazilians are being quite cheerful about their

:21:41. > :21:47.team. They have slipped back. It will be South Africa. We know that

:21:48. > :21:51.in the relays you are allowed to move all over the place and get that

:21:52. > :21:58.run in. A brilliant takeover from the Americans in lane four. These

:21:59. > :22:03.are the things that they do so well and I don't understand why we don't

:22:04. > :22:06.do more of this in Great Britain at the start and turns and takeovers,

:22:07. > :22:11.the technical stuff. It would be great if we could focus more on

:22:12. > :22:17.that. Take a bit of the distance out and do some more drills and skills.

:22:18. > :22:24.The Americans do it and also the world record-holder and Olympic

:22:25. > :22:28.champion. Yes, Adam Peaty is great at the little details and he has

:22:29. > :22:35.worked on them are phenomenal and every piece of that race. 100 metres

:22:36. > :22:42.gone, America now back in first place. It is going to be hard to see

:22:43. > :22:47.beyond the Americans but hopefully Great Britain have the race of their

:22:48. > :22:51.lives in them. They won the World Championship last year when James

:22:52. > :23:01.Guy hauled in the two leading teams and took the gold medal. But the

:23:02. > :23:08.Americans are very strong. It looks like it is USA first, South Africa

:23:09. > :23:15.second and France, a lovely powerful stroke. Beautiful alignment,

:23:16. > :23:18.everything using his energy systems to transport him forward, nothing

:23:19. > :23:29.outside of that and very efficient. This is great from the USA and this

:23:30. > :23:34.is a very good split from Conger. USA in first, front in second, South

:23:35. > :23:41.Africa at third and Conger, 1:45.7, very good. That was the second leg

:23:42. > :23:50.that opened up the lead and did the damage. This is now a chance, a case

:23:51. > :23:54.of everybody chasing. South Africa have come back through in the second

:23:55. > :24:05.place within 50 metres. That interesting. What a great first

:24:06. > :24:10.length. It certainly was. And that is Justus from South Africa. Doing

:24:11. > :24:19.really well. The Brazilians are now showing well in the far left of your

:24:20. > :24:24.shot. It is not helping with lanes two and three being quite slow. It

:24:25. > :24:31.is hard to catch up. Fantastic from South Africa. Brazil in lane one at

:24:32. > :24:41.the top. But it is USA and South Africa back in contention. This is

:24:42. > :24:46.Bentz from the USA against Justus of South Africa with the South African

:24:47. > :24:51.closer to us and Bentz in the centre and they have Ryan Lochte in the

:24:52. > :24:59.final leg. He has been world champion in 200 free. They have

:25:00. > :25:06.fabulous rise to bring in as well, -- fabulous swimmers. The wheels

:25:07. > :25:12.have fallen off for South Africa. It is really closing up. That is Italy

:25:13. > :25:20.in lane eight really coming through. What a change. No change at the

:25:21. > :25:26.front for the USA but all change on this left-hand side. South Africa

:25:27. > :25:31.have gone from second to fifth. This is Ryan Lochte, I love his turns,

:25:32. > :25:34.but see if we can see it. Sometimes he actually goes over on his back

:25:35. > :25:40.which is quite extraordinary will stop his butterfly kick on his back

:25:41. > :25:43.is supremely powerful and fast. He will turn over halfway

:25:44. > :25:58.like a fish! It is the real trick to get up and time it perfectly. He is

:25:59. > :26:05.a brilliant swimmer. Peter Dooley is and he is taking this one away for

:26:06. > :26:10.the USA. Netherlands in lane five coming back into it and also down in

:26:11. > :26:17.lane eight, going well is the Italians. It is USA and Netherlands

:26:18. > :26:24.just about second. You were talking about South Africa resting Chad Le

:26:25. > :26:28.Clos, he might only have one swim tonight. No doubt about who will be

:26:29. > :26:34.qualifying fastest. The American team is the threat to the British

:26:35. > :26:40.team who we will see in the next swim. We beat them last year at the

:26:41. > :26:47.World Championships. They are looking ominous and they have people

:26:48. > :26:53.they can transfer in. Like Michael Phelps!

:26:54. > :27:14.USA win the first heat. There are only two heats. It is a reasonably

:27:15. > :27:20.quick time. The time that the British team won the wood temp

:27:21. > :27:27.injured in last year was 7.04. -- won the World Championships. Ryan

:27:28. > :27:30.Lochte looked very good and they can put in three faster swimmers. My

:27:31. > :27:46.word. Frightening. That is an American takeover. That

:27:47. > :27:55.was enormously safe. Really safe, the hand goes on and there is the

:27:56. > :28:03.underwater turn from Ryan Lochte. It is going to be tough for the British

:28:04. > :28:10.team, not so much for these guys, resting people. The second semifinal

:28:11. > :28:15.is coming up. Great Britain won the very first Olympic Games in this

:28:16. > :28:26.event in 1908. Good knowledge! Did you watch it? Yes! I saw Henry

:28:27. > :28:33.Taylor on the last leg! So, the results, as expected, USA winning

:28:34. > :28:35.and they have three faster swimmers for the final. Netherlands second

:28:36. > :28:53.and Italy third, Africa in fifth. Straight into these second heat of

:28:54. > :28:56.two of this men's 4x200 free relay. Great Britain in lane four with

:28:57. > :29:08.Australia in five and Germany in six. A big job to do for these guys.

:29:09. > :29:17.And the Great Britain team is actually the full Scottish team. All

:29:18. > :29:22.four men swimming in Glasgow at the Commonwealth Games. Second behind

:29:23. > :29:31.Australia. James Guy will come in this evening for one of them.

:29:32. > :29:39.The second heat of the men's 4x200 free relay and the world champions,

:29:40. > :29:48.Great Britain in lane four, Stephen Milne leading them off and then we

:29:49. > :30:00.have Robbie Renwick, Daniel Wallace and Duncan Scott from Stirling.

:30:01. > :30:05.Scott had that fantastic swim earlier in this session. The

:30:06. > :30:13.Australians going out fast. Just above Stephen Milne, lying in fourth

:30:14. > :30:15.place and now at the waist of the Australian team, I would like to see

:30:16. > :30:34.him not get away too far. They are in sick or seven. Turning

:30:35. > :30:39.in fourth place. It is Stephen Milne turning fourth but he had a good

:30:40. > :30:47.turn and he is starting to attack Dan Smith from Australia. Going well

:30:48. > :30:55.up in two are the Russians. Stephen Milne is looking good. Turning, very

:30:56. > :31:04.tight indeed. He turned first. Ahead of Australia. Two tenths of a second

:31:05. > :31:09.ahead of Germany. Last year in the World Championships, great written

:31:10. > :31:22.word first. The Australian team are fading -- Great Britain. The Russian

:31:23. > :31:28.Federation are strong. Britain are one tenth down and the Japanese are

:31:29. > :31:33.turning first. That takeover in seven, a gold medallist second from

:31:34. > :31:41.your left there. He is having a great time. That was excellent. Now

:31:42. > :31:57.it is Japan. Great Britain still going well,

:31:58. > :31:59.Robbie Rennick is here. World champions are Great Britain and he

:32:00. > :32:14.looks good, Robbie Renwick. Four of the members of the

:32:15. > :32:23.university of sterling team here. The Japanese extending their lead --

:32:24. > :32:27.university of sterling. Robbie Renwick enjoys seeing the younger

:32:28. > :32:37.swimmers coming into effectively what is his domain. Mark Horton in

:32:38. > :32:42.lane 54 Australia. Interesting comments in the press after his

:32:43. > :32:56.victory over at the Chinese competitors. The Chinese Twitter has

:32:57. > :33:01.being going wild reacting to that. We would expect him to try and take

:33:02. > :33:16.the lead here. Slightly dangerous for great return. -- Great Britain.

:33:17. > :33:22.Team GB are six after the first two legs. The world champions have some

:33:23. > :33:30.work to do. They have to make sure the swimmers get through later. Dan

:33:31. > :33:41.Wallace Ford Team GB. He has not have the greatest year, it will be

:33:42. > :33:48.the second hundred of his 200 here. A tad slower than what I was hoping

:33:49. > :33:53.but Dan Wallace is a fighter. This year he was training in Millfield

:33:54. > :34:03.calls. Working hard, coming into this turn. Denmark in second

:34:04. > :34:10.overtaking the Japanese, the Danish team in lane number one. I'd ain't

:34:11. > :34:20.the Danish team have taken the lead. Dan Wallace in his third 50, really

:34:21. > :34:27.stretching it, putting the power in. The Russian Federation in two.

:34:28. > :34:36.Trying to bridge the gap to Denmark. Wallace is in third. This is a good

:34:37. > :34:45.leg. I was worried. We have Duncan Scott on the last leg and he is a

:34:46. > :34:53.very good freestyler. At the moment it looks like it is the Russians

:34:54. > :35:08.first. Second is Germany and third is Team GB. In those Duncan Scott

:35:09. > :35:16.for Team GB and he looks good. A strong split. We needed that. Here

:35:17. > :35:24.is a man on fire. Duncan Scott takes the lead. What a brilliant 100

:35:25. > :35:33.freestyle we saw earlier and he has gone out quickly. Two more lengths,

:35:34. > :35:45.Duncan. In lane six he has the world-record holder. That is Paul

:35:46. > :35:56.Bede men. Team GB over first, the world champions, second to Russians,

:35:57. > :35:59.third, Australia and the world record-holder at the moment by being

:36:00. > :36:11.his time. Duncan Scott is having a great swim. This last turn. Coming

:36:12. > :36:18.back quickly. Scott in his second swim of the session, those legs are

:36:19. > :36:22.going to have to go quicker. Duncan Scott -- Duncan Scott really

:36:23. > :36:30.swimming wealth. Great Britain doing what they need to do. The Russian

:36:31. > :36:36.having a go at the top. I am not sure that they will catch Duncan

:36:37. > :36:41.Scott. A very good swim for Britain. We will probably be next to the

:36:42. > :36:47.Americans. Very good swim, they have done the job, sick after the first

:36:48. > :36:57.two legs but the whole team needs to be there. A very good swim. Seven

:36:58. > :37:13.point 06 .03. That will be fascinating.

:37:14. > :37:24.7:6.7 four. That was the Americans. Duncan Scott is having the session

:37:25. > :37:36.of his life, Dan Wallace cheering them on. Robbie Renwick. Good strong

:37:37. > :37:50.powerful finish. What a future. The split there. I am trying to work it

:37:51. > :37:58.out. An awful lot of numbers. Team GB winning it and they will go in

:37:59. > :38:05.the final fastest. Let us see the qualifiers, Britain are fastest. We

:38:06. > :38:14.are world champions, USA in second ringing a couple of faster swimmers,

:38:15. > :38:17.we have James Guy tonight. The Russian Federation are third,

:38:18. > :38:24.Germany fourth, that will be an exciting final. Very close indeed.

:38:25. > :38:28.Britain are world champions and tonight they are hoping to become

:38:29. > :38:35.Olympic champions. How valuable is it going into the final fastest?

:38:36. > :38:39.Massively. They have James guy to come in. I would imagine Robbie

:38:40. > :38:43.Renwick will be out. The Americans will probably swap out three of

:38:44. > :38:57.their guys and the Australians as wealth. It is tough, it changes so

:38:58. > :39:03.much. So much confidence. Duncan Scott had an unbelievable swim

:39:04. > :39:06.there. Hopefully it will be interesting, it depends how he swims

:39:07. > :39:14.in the 100 metres, although he might focus on the re-life. I think he

:39:15. > :39:20.will do the 100m freestyle -- relay. Sometimes you find people and he has

:39:21. > :39:27.been an amazing final, that is quick. Let us hear from them. A

:39:28. > :39:31.great swim from you guys pretty new into the fastest lane tonight.

:39:32. > :39:37.Everyone did well. That is what we were looking for. We want to do a

:39:38. > :39:44.good swim in the morning to come back for the finals. We need to get

:39:45. > :39:49.rid from -- ready for the final. Was criteria for bringing in James? The

:39:50. > :39:57.slowest person in the heat would get taken out. We had no idea, it is up

:39:58. > :40:04.to our coach. Good to see you swimming well. That was a great

:40:05. > :40:13.time. It was good to be back. I needed to swim well for these guys.

:40:14. > :40:20.If we wanted to get a medal chance, I had to be on form. Duncan, I want

:40:21. > :40:25.to talk to you about the 100m freestyle earlier, did you know it

:40:26. > :40:34.would be that quick? I just wanted to try my best. Really happy. You

:40:35. > :40:38.will be busy tonight. Presumably we are looking to beat the Americans.

:40:39. > :40:44.We will see what happens. Understated. We know you have done

:40:45. > :40:50.before and you can do it again, good luck to you. Is it understated or is

:40:51. > :40:57.it endearing naivety? It is a British thing. They do not want to

:40:58. > :41:07.give anything away. It was on Bobby powers-macro face. He looked a bit

:41:08. > :41:14.flat. -- Bobby's face. It is a difficult one. He has always been

:41:15. > :41:18.the one who is there. They look up to him, but you saw in his face, he

:41:19. > :41:24.is going to be held and James Wilby end. It will be an exciting one,

:41:25. > :41:28.some of the biggest swimming superstars will be in the swimming

:41:29. > :41:33.pool and so will some of the biggest superstars in the British team. Stay

:41:34. > :41:43.with us if you can pose top we will try. 22 for British time is when we

:41:44. > :41:52.will see that. It has been getting sweaty and clammy and heart. We are

:41:53. > :41:54.getting refreshments. We have a few options, vanilla with Belgian

:41:55. > :42:05.chocolate, it sounds like a real treat. I think that is around five

:42:06. > :42:10.and a half pounds. While I decide what I am going to have, let us go

:42:11. > :42:16.back to the equestrian, we saw William Fox Pitt evolved in the

:42:17. > :42:20.eventing individual final. He had a difficult last for days or so. Let

:42:21. > :42:26.us the exactly how he gets Don and his final standings, we will show

:42:27. > :42:30.you the closing stages with William Fox-Pitt having done his run in the

:42:31. > :42:46.company of Ian Stark and Mark Tucker. Now America's void Martin,

:42:47. > :43:02.they have not had a good game but they have two in the top seven --

:43:03. > :43:18.void Martin. -- Boyd Martin. Seventh at the moment on 58 point nine.

:43:19. > :43:31.That showed a little bit in the show-jumping in the first team

:43:32. > :43:41.round. He is getting a little bit flat this afternoon. A great jump, a

:43:42. > :43:53.lot of ability, running forward onto his shoulders at the moment. The

:43:54. > :43:59.brick sticking out. And the last and that last one in particular is

:44:00. > :44:13.expect did. Puts him on 270 point nine and that really drops him down

:44:14. > :44:19.-- puts him on to 70.9. Mark Todd up again, he continues his climb, he

:44:20. > :44:25.already has a bronze medal. He cannot get into the individual

:44:26. > :44:36.places, can he? He can do anything. He is in seventh lace at the moment.

:44:37. > :44:38.Australia now. As we wait for the round to be completed, the replay --

:44:39. > :44:58.seventh place. Sam Griffiths. This is one of the

:44:59. > :45:14.best performances of his life. An Olympic Games reads well on your CV.

:45:15. > :45:20.Got the silver medal. Now, on a 53.1. He is on sixth lace, the

:45:21. > :45:24.current runs medallist on 45 with six. He needs a clear round to give

:45:25. > :45:56.himself a chance -- 45.6. Sam Griffiths has turned the screw

:45:57. > :45:59.and put the pressure on! He has had some disappointment, this was the

:46:00. > :46:05.man who slipped up on the flat in London and here he is, currently in

:46:06. > :46:14.sixth place, and with that clear round he might go higher.

:46:15. > :46:24.That was an impressive round. Two impressive rounds. Very clean

:46:25. > :46:34.jumping. Good shape. This mayor was suddenly trying for -- this mare was

:46:35. > :46:41.certainly trying for him. They have done a great job. Those are the top

:46:42. > :46:55.three at the moment in the clubhouse. Five left to jump and it

:46:56. > :47:03.is Clark Johnson. -- Clarke Johnstone. On-board this lovely grey

:47:04. > :47:12.horse, Balmoral Sensation, the 11-year-old. Currently fifth on

:47:13. > :47:16.51.3. Clarke has got himself a team bronze, he jumped a clear round this

:47:17. > :47:25.morning. Another one would definitely give him a chance. But

:47:26. > :47:27.that has put Sam up another one. He almost jumped into that too well.

:47:28. > :47:55.Massive jump. The bricks moved again but didn't

:47:56. > :48:05.come down. Oh! He will curse and he is! That drops him out of it. 59.3.

:48:06. > :48:20.He actually only goes down to places. And the horse certainly got

:48:21. > :48:24.a great job but he couldn't shorten coming out about combination and

:48:25. > :48:28.stood off a long way and Clarke shortened him and asked him for a

:48:29. > :48:33.big one and the horse gave him one but his back seat came down. I think

:48:34. > :48:37.he is kicking himself, that was definitely Clarke's mistake. He will

:48:38. > :48:40.have other chances. You might have blown it here but he will be back.

:48:41. > :48:58.-- he might have blown it. Now a man who has already got gold

:48:59. > :49:06.on his mantelpiece, Phillip Dutton. He did that in 96 in Atlanta and

:49:07. > :49:13.2000 in Sydney, riding Mighty Nice, another syndicate horse with some

:49:14. > :49:18.very loyal owners for Philip. Mighty Nice, a tremendous round yesterday

:49:19. > :49:25.across the country, put him up on a score of 47.8. He lived quite

:49:26. > :49:33.dangerously in the team round this morning. Just one fence but not two

:49:34. > :49:43.behind the lead. Of course very close behind him is Sam Griffiths.

:49:44. > :49:55.Philip could have won down and still stay where he is but not two. One

:49:56. > :50:02.time penalty. We were saying this morning, didn't look the easiest

:50:03. > :50:11.horse to jump, this. Certainly has the scope. He gets short on his neck

:50:12. > :50:24.and doesn't always soften in the frame. Just the last, still staying

:50:25. > :50:32.in fourth place and he will. Four to add. His wife was there watching.

:50:33. > :50:39.But will be a bit of joy not only for Philip but for America as well.

:50:40. > :50:49.The current best score with three to come. He did a good job, Phillip

:50:50. > :50:55.Dutton. Just coming out about combination, it is a big fence in

:50:56. > :50:59.and if they open up to much they can quicken and with two strides between

:51:00. > :51:18.the last two elements, he just was a bit short. Three to go. It is

:51:19. > :51:23.Phillip Dutton, Sam Griffiths. That is the one that this man is looking

:51:24. > :51:26.to keep out of it, the Australian, Christopher Bertenshaw. --

:51:27. > :51:43.Christopher Burton. Santano, the nine-year-old, she must be

:51:44. > :51:49.enjoying this. Now within by the superstar, Christopher Burton.

:51:50. > :51:55.Currently third, he was leading but he had fences down this morning so

:51:56. > :52:05.he is now on 45.6, bronze medal position. And he tried his heart out

:52:06. > :52:12.through that combination. He has got one fence in hand here. Christopher

:52:13. > :52:18.is certainly trying everything and this lovely horse is answering all

:52:19. > :52:24.his questions. Just a little flat. He needs to keep it together. This

:52:25. > :52:30.is a real star for the future, never mind the Olympic Games this time.

:52:31. > :52:39.That could put his medal chances out of it and that has. What a pity.

:52:40. > :52:46.Christopher had two down this money in the team round for Australia and

:52:47. > :52:56.now two in the individual round. 53.6. And it is Phillip Dutton who

:52:57. > :53:00.goes into bronze medal position. Horse and rider worked jolly hard in

:53:01. > :53:10.that combination and got away with it. And these final two fences, just

:53:11. > :53:15.caught the wall behind and the final oxer, just again those back legs

:53:16. > :53:18.flick the front polled. So unlucky, such a brilliant young course and a

:53:19. > :53:31.great conversation -- front poll. Now it is Astier Nicolas. They not

:53:32. > :53:51.only put France in front in the dressage but

:53:52. > :53:54.also in the cross-country and had a great performance in the

:53:55. > :54:01.show-jumping to clinch the job properly. 42 was his score. He now

:54:02. > :54:08.has two fences in hand at the moment on current bronze medallist, Phillip

:54:09. > :54:19.Dutton, on 51.8. And still want to come. Oh! -- one to come. Has that

:54:20. > :54:25.unsettled the horse? He is going higher now. It slowed him down in

:54:26. > :54:32.the combination but that was such a pity. The horse hesitated when he

:54:33. > :54:40.was a little bit off that oxer and went up a huge height and didn't

:54:41. > :54:46.travel far enough across the fence. Still safely in bronze at the moment

:54:47. > :54:51.on 46, sorry, in silver I should say. He could still have another but

:54:52. > :54:55.it opens the door for Michael Jung and gives him a fence in hand. Over

:54:56. > :55:08.the last, he has got a couple of time faults. He is on 248. -- he is

:55:09. > :55:20.on to 48. It is silver, he will definitely win silver. It has given

:55:21. > :55:26.Michael Jung more room. A great pity that happened. You could see the

:55:27. > :55:38.horse really trying, couldn't quite get the back end over. Drama from

:55:39. > :55:44.beginning to end in this eventing. At the moment, Nicolas has assured

:55:45. > :55:50.himself of a silver, he already has a team gold. And the man in bronze

:55:51. > :55:53.at the moment is Phillip Dutton for the United States. Here comes the

:55:54. > :56:13.reigning Olympic champion, Michael Jung.

:56:14. > :56:20.Michael Jung, the Olympic champion of 2012, coming back for years later

:56:21. > :56:24.with the horse that the this year won the eventing grand slam on

:56:25. > :56:33.summer to give him back-to-back Olympic titles. What a horse he has

:56:34. > :56:40.been, his reserve horse, he can't afford to have won down. But not two

:56:41. > :56:51.-- one down. He doesn't normally need that sort

:56:52. > :57:03.of leeway but pressure can get to anyone. A little toe tap there.

:57:04. > :57:16.Beautifully shortened in the last element.

:57:17. > :57:22.Can this man emulate Mark Todd and win consecutive individual gold

:57:23. > :57:37.medals? Two to go. And one to go, the crowd is already

:57:38. > :57:48.getting excited. Oh! What a man and what are horse! Not five months ago

:57:49. > :57:53.he won badminton and an eventing grand slam -- Badminton. He has now

:57:54. > :57:57.added another Olympic title and that is sensational and it really does

:57:58. > :58:05.clinch a fantastic Olympic Games here in Rio for 2016. There can be

:58:06. > :58:12.no doubt that this man is a very worthy double Olympic champion. He

:58:13. > :58:16.certainly is, that was phenomenal. Sam was his reserve horse for this

:58:17. > :58:25.Olympics and what a reserve to have. Already an Olympic gold medallist

:58:26. > :58:26.and a Badminton and burly winner and a European champion and now double

:58:27. > :58:40.Olympic gold medallist. There is father. And they have all

:58:41. > :58:43.played their part but in the end, the horse and rider are the ones

:58:44. > :58:55.that deserve that gold medal. And not an anxious moment in that

:58:56. > :59:05.round, quite brilliant. He is an incredible man. And he is enjoying

:59:06. > :59:20.it. Gold for Michael Jung of Germany. It is bronze for Nicolas --

:59:21. > :59:33.it is silver for Nicolas. And Phillip Dutton takes the bronze. The

:59:34. > :59:41.whole competition has been full of excitement and drama. Some great

:59:42. > :59:45.competition right from the word go. And that is the great owner just

:59:46. > :00:00.congratulating Michael. The medal ceremony will be coming

:00:01. > :00:08.very shortly. And there will be a lot at celebrations of some great

:00:09. > :00:12.sport here, no doubt about it. The action keeps coming,
