Wellcome, BBC Two viewers to the conclusion of the team gymnastics. | :00:11. | :00:24. | |
Viewers of BBC One will need to switch to BBC Two now, because the | :00:25. | :00:28. | |
news will be an BBC One. MATT BAKER: So, this is the | :00:29. | :00:45. | |
conclusion of the gymnastics team competition. The USA will finish up | :00:46. | :00:53. | |
on floor. Just moments ago, Ellie Downie finished the GB three on | :00:54. | :01:01. | |
vault, and this is what happened. Posting a 5.8 difficulty. Talking to | :01:02. | :01:07. | |
herself just before she powers down the vault run, the double twist, and | :01:08. | :01:13. | |
what a landing! You can see her sister Rebecca cheering her on. That | :01:14. | :01:20. | |
was a fabulous final vault the Great Britain. All the gymnasts vaulted | :01:21. | :01:26. | |
well. That is the effort on the Great Britain, they just have to | :01:27. | :01:29. | |
watch the rest of the gymnastics. Russia need 14 point | :01:30. | :01:39. | |
-- 14.469. Let's enjoy this landing again. She is so tight and | :01:40. | :01:51. | |
controlled. That is the sort of Boulding we have come to expect from | :01:52. | :02:03. | |
Ellie. Here comes Claudia, the powerhouse we have enjoyed for so | :02:04. | :02:09. | |
many years on vault and floor. She has got the difficulty, has she got | :02:10. | :02:13. | |
the execution? That is the question. And here she comes. A small hop, but | :02:14. | :02:23. | |
fantastic vaulting for the first gymnast up. It was great from | :02:24. | :02:28. | |
Claudia. There is the British team just watching Russia as they finish | :02:29. | :02:39. | |
up this competition. The British girls have performed fantastically. | :02:40. | :02:44. | |
There have been a few ups and downs throughout the Championships, but | :02:45. | :02:47. | |
they have not let it affect them, they have carried on fighting right | :02:48. | :02:49. | |
through, giving a great performance today. | :02:50. | :03:00. | |
So, over to floor, with Lauren Hernandez, her first Olympic Eames, | :03:01. | :03:08. | |
the youngest member of Team USA, known as the young Shakira. Stand-by | :03:09. | :03:17. | |
to dance and bedazzled. Did you see the wink of the camera before she | :03:18. | :03:22. | |
started? That is a prelude of what this routine will be. | :03:23. | :03:30. | |
Very much enjoying her Olympic experience. Double Arabian. | :03:31. | :04:08. | |
Quick concentration for the tumble. She undercuts that a bit. | :04:09. | :04:33. | |
Real special performance here. Sky-high double tuck to finish. | :04:34. | :04:49. | |
That was pure performance, really enjoyable, and it is the last we | :04:50. | :05:00. | |
will see of Laurie Hernandez here, she has been beaten by her | :05:01. | :05:03. | |
team-mates and won't be through to the finals, but that was such an | :05:04. | :05:07. | |
enjoyable performance. So, the Russian Federation on 160, this is | :05:08. | :05:11. | |
the last of the Russian vaults to go. We will bring you the other two | :05:12. | :05:18. | |
very shortly, we are not in control of these pictures. This is Maria | :05:19. | :05:25. | |
Paseka, for nominal Russian vault and current world champion. You can | :05:26. | :05:33. | |
see there are, a difficulty of 6.3, and she got the landing as well as | :05:34. | :05:38. | |
we have seen her do that, talk about gymnasts rising for the moment. | :05:39. | :05:44. | |
Absolutely delighted. They saw a bit of an opening there, they were not | :05:45. | :05:51. | |
going to let it get away from them. Just enjoying every ounce of this | :05:52. | :06:04. | |
experience. You could really see, couldn't you, this is my moment at | :06:05. | :06:06. | |
the Olympics. Lovely double straight. This was a | :06:07. | :06:18. | |
clever routine, because she did some difficult Tom balls, but not so | :06:19. | :06:21. | |
difficult that she couldn't give a great performance as well. -- | :06:22. | :06:29. | |
difficult tumbles. A straight double twisting front. | :06:30. | :06:34. | |
And, like all the gymnasts from the USA, so well rehearsed in all their | :06:35. | :06:39. | |
landings. Hun and as just waiting for her | :06:40. | :06:52. | |
score. -- Lauren Hernandez waiting for her score. And here comes Alia | :06:53. | :07:05. | |
Mustafina for Russia. We have seen how much her experience has paid | :07:06. | :07:08. | |
off. She has qualified fifth for the all-round final. She got a 5.8 | :07:09. | :07:22. | |
difficulty, so she's going into the double twist, and nails that landing | :07:23. | :07:26. | |
for that team. Team-mates are cheering for her. She's helping that | :07:27. | :07:35. | |
team go up. 15.133 four Aliya Mustafina for the vault, and we join | :07:36. | :07:42. | |
Alexandra Raisman on floor, current Olympic champion, qualifying second | :07:43. | :07:46. | |
for floor. This tumbling is something quite exceptional. Double | :07:47. | :07:54. | |
Arabian, toes just stay inside. Good control on the leap. So, we had | :07:55. | :08:20. | |
one huge combination tumble, another sky-high double pike Arabian into | :08:21. | :08:23. | |
jump. I love that tumble the best, she is | :08:24. | :08:39. | |
so straight in that double straight. Just one final test for her. Double | :08:40. | :09:12. | |
pike, chest right up, so committed to land, a beautiful, special floor | :09:13. | :09:21. | |
routine there from Aly Raisman. Absolutely special, they came in ten | :09:22. | :09:25. | |
marks clear. Simone Biles is still to come here. That is Maria Paseka's | :09:26. | :09:34. | |
score of 15.7, so Russia have done enough. They have done enough for | :09:35. | :09:39. | |
silver, it says first at the moment but there is still Aly Raisman's | :09:40. | :09:44. | |
score and Simone Biles to go. And quite tight between China and | :09:45. | :09:48. | |
Russia. The final gymnast for China did throw it away. | :09:49. | :09:54. | |
Sugihara for Japan. The first gymnast for Japan scored | :09:55. | :10:10. | |
13.833. Good combination, change leg lead into the tuck back. | :10:11. | :10:18. | |
The backflip and the layout somersault, not exceptional | :10:19. | :10:27. | |
difficulty, but enough. Nicely linked, the jumps and the free | :10:28. | :10:29. | |
cartwheel. Japan very much been a team on the | :10:30. | :10:33. | |
rise. Head well back there. Very nicely. A | :10:34. | :10:55. | |
free walkover. Quite combination, that one. -- quite a popular | :10:56. | :11:08. | |
combination, that one. A slight overbalance in the spin, and she is | :11:09. | :11:12. | |
getting ready now for the dismount. This has been a well-controlled | :11:13. | :11:16. | |
routine, they will not be throwing their chance away. Know, and apart | :11:17. | :11:21. | |
from the Netherlands, Germany and the USA, Japan are the only team | :11:22. | :11:26. | |
that haven't had a fall. Russia have had a fall, China have had two, | :11:27. | :11:33. | |
Great Britain and Brazil have had one each. Japan were in fourth, I | :11:34. | :11:38. | |
beg your pardon, third, going into this. Russia were forth. Still a lot | :11:39. | :11:50. | |
of gymnastics to go. Sheer emotion and hope. I just can't cope with | :11:51. | :11:57. | |
watching the rest of the competition wondering if Russia have got that | :11:58. | :12:02. | |
silver medal. They got a silver medal backing London 2012. They | :12:03. | :12:09. | |
probably would not have necessarily expected it, they have had an | :12:10. | :12:13. | |
up-and-down preparation. You can see just what it means to them. We said | :12:14. | :12:17. | |
it was already written in the stars, if you like, that the USA would get | :12:18. | :12:22. | |
the gold, and with a lot of help from this gymnast here, Simone | :12:23. | :12:27. | |
Biles, but what I battle it has been first of and bronze, and it is still | :12:28. | :12:35. | |
going on. -- for silver and bronze. Simone Biles looking to make history | :12:36. | :12:40. | |
as the first woman to get five gold medals at the Olympics. And we are | :12:41. | :12:47. | |
going to start raising a debate whether or not Simone Biles is the | :12:48. | :12:53. | |
most phenomenal athlete here in Rio, and after this, you can start the | :12:54. | :12:59. | |
discussion. Well, watch and enjoy, because she does, and that is one of | :13:00. | :13:03. | |
the things that makes her so impressive. Two straight | :13:04. | :13:09. | |
somersaults, the full twist, so clever. You almost don't notice it. | :13:10. | :13:22. | |
Just a half twist this time, two Straits and a half twist. | :13:23. | :13:44. | |
Look at the height on the leap. This is her third tumble, remember. | :13:45. | :13:58. | |
Sky-high double twisting double tuck. | :13:59. | :14:16. | |
No pause, into this final tumble, not a flicker on landing. What a | :14:17. | :14:30. | |
routine, a true champion and a leader of a great team. What a way | :14:31. | :14:34. | |
to secure the gold medal in the team Olympic final! They don't even need | :14:35. | :14:40. | |
to wait for the score, because all she needed was 7.5 marks. And she's | :14:41. | :14:49. | |
absolutely nailed it. And do you know what? That is not the last you | :14:50. | :14:55. | |
are going to see of Simone Biles. You just watch in wonder for the | :14:56. | :14:58. | |
next few days as she hopes to achieve greatness, and I'm sure | :14:59. | :15:02. | |
she'll do it. I think she will. No gymnast has, is world champion to | :15:03. | :15:12. | |
win the Olympics. 14.3 four Japan. Puts them on 28.133 at the moment. | :15:13. | :15:18. | |
What a fantastic final. So much great gymnastics going on. We | :15:19. | :15:22. | |
haven't seen any situation where one of the favoured teams has had a | :15:23. | :15:26. | |
terrible day and throw in the towel in. This has been a really truly | :15:27. | :15:29. | |
great Olympic final. We are just waiting for confirmation | :15:30. | :15:39. | |
of the order of two and three, silver and bronze. Russia hoping | :15:40. | :15:51. | |
China and Japan in the mix. Just waiting for the Japanese Teramoto | :15:52. | :15:59. | |
score coming in. We also have Simone Biles, just confirmation of how far | :16:00. | :16:04. | |
ahead they were, ten Mark Sim qualification. Interesting to see | :16:05. | :16:09. | |
the difference. -- ten marks in qualification. | :16:10. | :16:13. | |
There you go. At the moment, Japan aren't third. We are waiting for the | :16:14. | :16:23. | |
US quarter comment. -- Japan are in third. China, bronze, Russia, | :16:24. | :16:28. | |
silver, and the USA, Gold. We are waiting for confirmation of that. | :16:29. | :16:35. | |
What a team final bid has been! And it is close between Great Britain | :16:36. | :16:41. | |
and Japan. Those steps out on the floor will have been the difference. | :16:42. | :16:48. | |
What a shame for Great Britain. It wasn't without deduction in other | :16:49. | :16:52. | |
parts of the competition as well. No, but I think it big total for | :16:53. | :16:59. | |
them. 100s Defour with mistakes. You know, you have to expect that | :17:00. | :17:03. | |
sometimes under this extreme pressure there will be mistakes -- | :17:04. | :17:09. | |
174. There is confirmation. I can see the score from here, it is 15.8. | :17:10. | :17:21. | |
It's absolutely huge! And team USA, as we expected, have just dominated | :17:22. | :17:27. | |
this team final. My word, what a performance! Every single peas, | :17:28. | :17:32. | |
performance after performance, routine after routine, they didn't | :17:33. | :17:37. | |
disappoint -- every piece. I love how Ali is telling them what to do, | :17:38. | :17:40. | |
where to go, what celebrations to do. You're right, Matt, they | :17:41. | :17:46. | |
certainly didn't disappoint, and there will be lots of talk about | :17:47. | :17:49. | |
whether this is the greatest team ever. Oh, without any doubt. I | :17:50. | :17:56. | |
think, the dynasty has been a big part of that. They had coach, the | :17:57. | :18:02. | |
craftsmen. Man and wife actually, they have made their impact on team | :18:03. | :18:07. | |
USA, they will be retiring after this competition. There is the | :18:08. | :18:10. | |
Russian Federation. They take the silver medal in this women's team | :18:11. | :18:16. | |
final. That matches the silver that they got in London 2012. But the gap | :18:17. | :18:23. | |
between the USA and Russia is 8.2. Russia and China at just over half a | :18:24. | :18:28. | |
mark, and Great Britain a hair's breadth behind Japan and China. | :18:29. | :18:31. | |
Goodness me. So very, very close. Japan in fourth, 107% .3 71. -- 174 | :18:32. | :18:51. | |
point 371. Brazil in front of the home crowd did not disappoint. They | :18:52. | :18:56. | |
finished in eighth. There is confirmation, the women's team final | :18:57. | :18:59. | |
at the Rio Olympics. The United States of America dominate, Russia | :19:00. | :19:07. | |
again take the silver. And China get the bronze. Japan's fourth, and | :19:08. | :19:15. | |
Great Britain finished in fifth. Well, it was absolutely fabulous | :19:16. | :19:19. | |
competition to watch. The Americans are just stunning. I can't believe | :19:20. | :19:23. | |
Simone Biles. It is almost as if she is made of elastic. It's | :19:24. | :19:27. | |
extraordinary how much height she gets on the way she can go from one | :19:28. | :19:31. | |
twist and turn into another. Great, great stuff. And hope you enjoyed | :19:32. | :19:36. | |
watching it. Just behind the Rio Reno where the gymnastics is taking | :19:37. | :19:39. | |
place is the Maria Lenk Aquatic Centre, that is the venue for the | :19:40. | :19:44. | |
diving. Yesterday, Tom Daley and band bedfellow won the turn of | :19:45. | :19:51. | |
course Tonia Couch -- Tom Daley and Dan Goodfellow. How would they get | :19:52. | :19:58. | |
on with Mike here, they were hoping for a medal. We are going to join it | :19:59. | :20:04. | |
with the British pair in fifth place after three dives, two to go as we | :20:05. | :20:08. | |
pick it up with commentary from Leon Taylor and Bob Ballard. | :20:09. | :20:27. | |
COMMENTATOR: A brilliant effort from the Chinese pair, who are about to | :20:28. | :20:32. | |
shut the front door and leave everybody else behind. Inward, 3.5, | :20:33. | :20:41. | |
take off all the way, spin speed is identical. Both divers over | :20:42. | :20:46. | |
rotating, and usually so. We are looking at less than eight from | :20:47. | :20:51. | |
execution, synchronisation, apart from the over rotation, and they do | :20:52. | :20:55. | |
it in sync, is still very good. You will probably see lines on | :20:56. | :20:59. | |
synchronisation, I think you should, anyway. | :21:00. | :21:05. | |
Eight and 8.5, least impressive so far. 75.84 for the Chinese, still | :21:06. | :21:18. | |
got a big lead over everybody else. Mexico and the USA route two and | :21:19. | :21:25. | |
free. -- are at two and three. We move on to the Malaysian. Strong | :21:26. | :21:31. | |
finish in their programme. There and thereabouts. Expect them to move | :21:32. | :21:37. | |
into the top three if they are not there already. They are blurred in | :21:38. | :21:43. | |
round three. They had an inward 3.5, -- they are there in round three. | :21:44. | :21:55. | |
Yes, first-class from the lazy! -- from Malaysian. Silver just a few | :21:56. | :22:07. | |
months ago. Very, very buoyant. Working together beautifully. | :22:08. | :22:13. | |
Synchronisation. Just a fraction of but pretty much there or | :22:14. | :22:16. | |
thereabouts. Pommie that is like for like with our Chinese pair. -- just | :22:17. | :22:18. | |
a of Mike. Chen and Lui got 75, high fives from | :22:19. | :22:40. | |
the coaches. 29.68 for the Malaysian pair. They are only five points | :22:41. | :22:45. | |
behind the Chinese. Still up for grabs there. The last rounds, we are | :22:46. | :22:51. | |
going for the same dive. Yes, they are. The same dive, 3.2, only five | :22:52. | :22:59. | |
points between them. Interesting. Pressure being put on the Chinese | :23:00. | :23:05. | |
now. We watch North Korea with their inward 3.5. They are there in second | :23:06. | :23:11. | |
place after round three. The combination that got the bronze last | :23:12. | :23:14. | |
year. This one seems to be working, too. | :23:15. | :23:22. | |
Solid, the dive closest to me, came, she drills her dive. Execution four, | :23:23. | :23:32. | |
five and six is going to be in the nines at the very least. Her partner | :23:33. | :23:36. | |
Kim, furthest away, looks a little plight to the diving board but they | :23:37. | :23:40. | |
are both exactly the same distance, a little bit over rotation. | :23:41. | :23:45. | |
Executions one, two and three will be a little bit lower. | :23:46. | :23:50. | |
Synchronisation is good. Eight, eight point five. North Korea very | :23:51. | :24:02. | |
much in the medal mix. 75, 79, now 76 on those dives. That is very | :24:03. | :24:07. | |
tight indeed. Malaysia Airlines moved up a mark. North Korea by | :24:08. | :24:10. | |
virtue of their nearly 80 points. It is time. -- Malaysia Airlines moved | :24:11. | :24:15. | |
up a mark. Is that too much to ask of Canada? | :24:16. | :24:29. | |
If they get lines across the board they will go into the lead. China | :24:30. | :24:37. | |
are not away with the fairies yet. Still room for manoeuvre for Great | :24:38. | :24:39. | |
Britain, who up next. Oh, that is their bogey dive. And I | :24:40. | :24:54. | |
have seen them nail this and seen them falter. This is somewhere in | :24:55. | :24:56. | |
between. 3.5 somersaults in the tuck | :24:57. | :25:06. | |
position. It is good, but will it be good enough? She does a magical | :25:07. | :25:15. | |
save, bends her knees and archers through the water. That will get | :25:16. | :25:19. | |
what they need to stay right on the cusp. This is super close. They are | :25:20. | :25:32. | |
in fourth place. 261 in second. They will surely be joined by Tonia Couch | :25:33. | :25:36. | |
and Lewis Colson of Great Britain. Plenty will be doing this in round | :25:37. | :25:42. | |
five. USA will do it, China will do it, North Korea Malaysia and Canada | :25:43. | :25:49. | |
are all doing this dive. It is round four. A bit of detail behind it. 2.5 | :25:50. | :26:03. | |
somersaults, 1.5 twists. Nines for the Brits will put them into second | :26:04. | :26:10. | |
place. Can they get close to that, close to 80 points? When they get | :26:11. | :26:13. | |
close to 80 points, they are up there. | :26:14. | :26:25. | |
Yes! Come on girls, that's it. Just when the pressure is starting | :26:26. | :26:38. | |
tonight. Beautiful dive, 1.5 twists. Into the plight shape, reaching into | :26:39. | :26:42. | |
the water, their synchronisation is excellent. This is going to get high | :26:43. | :26:48. | |
70s, I hope it gets over 80 points. Well done, Tonya, well done, Lewis. | :26:49. | :26:55. | |
You are very much in the mix. Let's see what the scoreboard is going to | :26:56. | :27:02. | |
be like. Beautiful diving. Terrific fourth round dive from our girls. | :27:03. | :27:10. | |
79.68, on the cusp of 80. That was the joint highest score on that | :27:11. | :27:14. | |
round. They are into fourth place. But it is so, so tight. There are | :27:15. | :27:21. | |
five, looking for three medals in round number five. The final round | :27:22. | :27:25. | |
for the women is coming up next. That crowd is getting right behind | :27:26. | :27:31. | |
this. Let's see where we stand. China, not away, only five points | :27:32. | :27:36. | |
clear. Malaysia are five points clear, China of North Korea. Ten | :27:37. | :27:41. | |
points clear of Great Britain, Canada. | :27:42. | :27:46. | |
It is all very, very tight. At the moment, China have not claimed the | :27:47. | :27:56. | |
gold medal. All the playful. -- all to play for. I don't know what to | :27:57. | :28:00. | |
suggest, get on the edge of your seat, because this is going to be | :28:01. | :28:09. | |
mega close. And the gold is not... Yeah, OK. A strange noise, are you | :28:10. | :28:18. | |
all right?! Do not make a cup of tea, stay where you are. Rio 2016 | :28:19. | :28:23. | |
are going to make an official statement, everybody is very | :28:24. | :28:29. | |
tight-lipped, we will wait and see. It is going super green, it has got | :28:30. | :28:32. | |
our attention as we move into the final round, round five of five. It | :28:33. | :28:41. | |
is a dive that five will be doing. The USA not really in the mix. | :28:42. | :28:47. | |
The Americans have saved the best till last, but they have made the | :28:48. | :28:53. | |
run to the finish line too late. Too many mistakes early on have left | :28:54. | :28:57. | |
this pet slightly out of the running. This is a top-notch effort | :28:58. | :29:02. | |
on their final round dive. You're going to see many of the girls | :29:03. | :29:07. | |
performing this, choosing the twist element here. 1.5 twists, 2.5 | :29:08. | :29:13. | |
somersaults. It is a fantastic effort from our American pair, too | :29:14. | :29:16. | |
little, too late, no medals for the US in this contest. They are a pair | :29:17. | :29:23. | |
in transition, working their way through. They have been together in | :29:24. | :29:27. | |
recent times, maybe not a great expectancy level of them. This is | :29:28. | :29:34. | |
the marker to beat five body else as we move on. -- for everybody else. | :29:35. | :29:46. | |
Brazil and Great Britain are doing something slightly different. The | :29:47. | :29:53. | |
Mexicans, and inward 3.5 somersaults with tucked down at the moment. They | :29:54. | :30:03. | |
are 232. They are not likely to figure because of that harshly | :30:04. | :30:10. | |
dropped round four dive. They certainly are, silver medallists | :30:11. | :30:11. | |
from 2012, the next pair. Their fourth Olympics, but looking | :30:12. | :30:24. | |
like no medal to match what she did four years ago. But she wants to | :30:25. | :30:28. | |
finish off, as will her partner, with the inward 3.5. The best of the | :30:29. | :30:31. | |
ability, 3.2 with tucked. It is a good finish, but too many | :30:32. | :30:44. | |
points to make up, 20 points off that pack that are fighting for the | :30:45. | :30:49. | |
medals. And a guide like that to finish, it is better than average, | :30:50. | :30:52. | |
but it would have needed to be a world beating dive to even get back | :30:53. | :30:56. | |
anywhere near in contention. Not the Mexican pair's day-to-day. They will | :30:57. | :31:03. | |
be towards the bottom end of the pack, but they are in the Olympic | :31:04. | :31:07. | |
final, so nothing to be taken away from the pairs out here today. They | :31:08. | :31:17. | |
will not be on the podium. We think they will be around the 300 mark | :31:18. | :31:24. | |
with that. 72 exactly for Espinosa and Roscoe. | :31:25. | :31:32. | |
Is a user the USA by just a little bit. -- they beat the USA by just a | :31:33. | :31:42. | |
little bit. Now, the crowd getting ready to applaud, and hoping the | :31:43. | :31:47. | |
judges will be kind and look favourably towards the Brazilian | :31:48. | :31:54. | |
pair. We talked about the big dive for them, 3.2. They will finish with | :31:55. | :32:04. | |
a 3.0 forward three and a half for Oliveira and Pedrosa. | :32:05. | :32:17. | |
It is definitely possible. It is probably their favourite dive, which | :32:18. | :32:24. | |
is why they have left it to the end, that is often what happens in diving | :32:25. | :32:29. | |
in general, you leave your favourite dive or potentially your best dive | :32:30. | :32:34. | |
until last. Marginally different on the spin speeds, hit the water at | :32:35. | :32:38. | |
the same time. It is a mixed bag, it will be seven, seven .5. -- 7.0, | :32:39. | :32:59. | |
7.5. The men's ten meter and the women's not much difference between | :33:00. | :33:07. | |
them. Now the gloves come off. China, Malaysia, North Korea, | :33:08. | :33:12. | |
Canada, GB are all slogging it out for these medals. And they are all | :33:13. | :33:18. | |
doing the same degree of difficulty, 3.2. So, Chen and Liu now have a | :33:19. | :33:29. | |
chance to throw down a gauntlet here, because they can do a big dive | :33:30. | :33:35. | |
and get the marks, then everybody else has to follow suit. Absolutely | :33:36. | :33:42. | |
faultless! I am going to go out on a limb and say that is gold for China. | :33:43. | :33:47. | |
There is often a question saying, can you put pressure on these | :33:48. | :33:51. | |
athletes, will they falter? And the answer to that is, no. On this | :33:52. | :34:00. | |
occasion, unfaltering, unflappable at the finish for the Chinese | :34:01. | :34:05. | |
pairing. I think this will put the gold out of reach, I am sure of it. | :34:06. | :34:13. | |
I have no idea what talking about either! Roald Dahl's language, whiz | :34:14. | :34:28. | |
popper. 354 is where they end up, so unless something extraordinary | :34:29. | :34:33. | |
happens, with 9.5s, it is gold joiner. Lets see what happens for | :34:34. | :34:38. | |
silver and bronze. The next four teams, including our girls who died | :34:39. | :34:45. | |
last, are very much in is. Separated by six points. Malaysia, North | :34:46. | :34:50. | |
Korea, great written and Canada are separated by six points. It is the | :34:51. | :34:57. | |
same dive from Malaysia, North Korea and Canada, and Tania and Lois are | :34:58. | :35:09. | |
opting for a different dive but with the same difficulty. We could | :35:10. | :35:14. | |
potentially have more teams in the mix here than we did yesterday, so | :35:15. | :35:20. | |
it is even tighter still. We move onto the Malaysians, who I say | :35:21. | :35:23. | |
normally finish their programming style. They will certainly need to | :35:24. | :35:26. | |
do it today to hold onto their second place round four. Here is | :35:27. | :35:37. | |
their version of it. It is tremendous, isn't it? Not quite as | :35:38. | :35:41. | |
good as the Chinese, and the Chinese are home and dry now. This is their | :35:42. | :35:48. | |
medal dive. Will this be enough? Malaysia now will have a nervous | :35:49. | :35:54. | |
wait. Their synchronisation is good, ever so slightly out of time, a | :35:55. | :35:57. | |
little bit of splash being thrown up. But this is still a huge dive. | :35:58. | :36:09. | |
Down into the green abyss they go. The scoreboard will flick into life | :36:10. | :36:13. | |
at some stage, and we will reveal whether that score is more than 80, | :36:14. | :36:19. | |
and if it is, that is a heck of a mark. 82.56 is the answer, ten | :36:20. | :36:25. | |
points shy of China, but they move into second, and now we start | :36:26. | :36:29. | |
getting the calculator out to try to work out who needs what. It will | :36:30. | :36:34. | |
take a lot to overtake Malaysia at this stage, but it is possible with | :36:35. | :36:38. | |
the marks available to North Korea, Great Britain and Canada. They are | :36:39. | :36:43. | |
separated by just six points from the last round. Celebrations going | :36:44. | :36:51. | |
on in the Malaysians camp. May be premature, but perhaps they are | :36:52. | :36:54. | |
anticipating that nobody will do it is consistently. They have dived so | :36:55. | :36:59. | |
well, regardless of the outcome, the performance has been sterling for | :37:00. | :37:04. | |
the Malaysians. Now, North Korea, the two Kims. What can they do? | :37:05. | :37:16. | |
Oh, she has faltered, the diver furthest from us has faltered, so | :37:17. | :37:23. | |
that means the North Koreans will not catch China, will not catch | :37:24. | :37:27. | |
Malaysia, and that opens the door for Canada and Great Britain. Kim | :37:28. | :37:33. | |
closest to us right of screen drills her dive, and her partner has an | :37:34. | :37:35. | |
unfortunate wobble. We are having a real delay on the | :37:36. | :37:50. | |
scores. It is worth the wait, let's wait and see. Execution marks will | :37:51. | :38:00. | |
be low. Let's have a look. Oh, dear. North Korea are out of it. They are | :38:01. | :38:04. | |
in third place right now, but that will be overtaken surely by either | :38:05. | :38:11. | |
great written or Canada. Malaysia might have secured second, not | :38:12. | :38:16. | |
confirmed yet. There is a bronze medal up for grabs for either Great | :38:17. | :38:21. | |
Britain or Canada. There is one point separated GB... 256 versus | :38:22. | :38:33. | |
255, it is a dead start. This is Canada's effort. Only seven is | :38:34. | :38:39. | |
needed to get into third place. They are more than capable of it. 9.5 to | :38:40. | :38:43. | |
get a second. The last time we will see this in | :38:44. | :38:59. | |
the competition, back to the half. My word, it is an exceptional dive | :39:00. | :39:03. | |
from the very experienced pair from Canada. What a dive to finish on, | :39:04. | :39:11. | |
that is world-class. Holding form, that could groove to be the dive | :39:12. | :39:17. | |
that secures them the medal. They will be very close to Malaysia. They | :39:18. | :39:25. | |
had a gap to close, they will get 9s. That might have put the medals | :39:26. | :39:33. | |
out of reach for the British pairing of Tonia and Lois. Confirmation on | :39:34. | :39:44. | |
your screens momentarily. It is 8.5s, not 9s. Very tight. So we can | :39:45. | :39:53. | |
pretty much worked this out, can we not? 82 does it. 82 for Great | :39:54. | :40:04. | |
Britain to get third place. It is the same tariff but not the same | :40:05. | :40:10. | |
dive. The inward somersaults in the tuck position. It needs to be their | :40:11. | :40:15. | |
best ever. What an absolute dream this would be. Breathe deeply, | :40:16. | :40:21. | |
girls, breathe deeply, smile, this is what you have done all the hard | :40:22. | :40:26. | |
work for. It comes down to this dive in the Olympic final. Compose, | :40:27. | :40:33. | |
breathe, manager of state. Let's do this. Take your time, do it right. | :40:34. | :40:40. | |
82, it is bronze to match the men. Carriage is closest to us, tools and | :40:41. | :40:48. | |
far side. It is good, but that is not good | :40:49. | :41:05. | |
enough. The Canadians know they have won the medal. That will be | :41:06. | :41:12. | |
agonisingly close, just outside. Our girls put everything into it, it | :41:13. | :41:16. | |
just wasn't good enough on the day. Inward three and a half in the tuck | :41:17. | :41:21. | |
position, just rolling into the water. What an absolute shame. The | :41:22. | :41:31. | |
synchronisation was good, but not good enough for a medal today. Well | :41:32. | :41:43. | |
done, Tonia, well done, Lois. 63.36, so all to MacLeay they move down | :41:44. | :41:46. | |
below North Korea because of the marks on the left, the execution | :41:47. | :41:54. | |
marks, 4.5, and that came to them in terms of the overall score. In the | :41:55. | :42:02. | |
end, it is 63.36, so we will wait for confirmation on your screen of | :42:03. | :42:14. | |
the win for China. And Malaysia are already celebrating before they knew | :42:15. | :42:20. | |
for a definite, but it is Chen and Liu who are the winners of the women | :42:21. | :42:24. | |
was Max synchronised ten metres platform. And by virtue of that | :42:25. | :42:32. | |
really superb last round dive from the Canadians, they have moved into | :42:33. | :42:37. | |
medal place, not surprising the Chinese have done it. Only ten | :42:38. | :42:43. | |
points in the end between China and Malaysia, that is as close as they | :42:44. | :42:48. | |
will be pushed in the women's event during the course of the week. I'm | :42:49. | :42:54. | |
sure we can give you the tabulator scores at the end. It is China, | :42:55. | :43:01. | |
Malaysia, Canada, the 1-2- three. Great Britain finishing in fifth | :43:02. | :43:07. | |
place in the end, 17 points away from a medal, not to be for Toulson | :43:08. | :43:11. | |
and Couch today. CLARE BALDING: I know a lot of | :43:12. | :43:16. | |
people watching will wonder whether there was something wrong with their | :43:17. | :43:20. | |
TV screen, because the pool was green. Tom Daley was one of those to | :43:21. | :43:25. | |
tweet as he shows the difference between the water polo pool in the | :43:26. | :43:30. | |
diving pool. It wasn't green this time yesterday when he was diving. | :43:31. | :43:35. | |
The Rio officials have investigated, they say they are not sure what has | :43:36. | :43:39. | |
caused it, but they say it has no risk to the athletes' health. But | :43:40. | :43:43. | |
they will continue to investigate why the pool has totally turned | :43:44. | :43:47. | |
green. Fifth place for Toulson and Couch, and Fathauer gymnastics team | :43:48. | :43:55. | |
as well. -- for our gymnastics team. David Madaya has been talking to | :43:56. | :43:57. | |
them. In commentary, Matt Baker was saying | :43:58. | :44:04. | |
this is possibly the finest display of gymnastic across-the-board have | :44:05. | :44:08. | |
seen. Becky, as someone who has seen more gymnastics than most, what you | :44:09. | :44:14. | |
make of that? That is incredible. I genuinely believe this is one of the | :44:15. | :44:18. | |
strongest teams we have ever put out, and everybody fought for every | :44:19. | :44:21. | |
tenth out there, we couldn't have done more so nobody should be | :44:22. | :44:24. | |
disappointed with what we have done today. Amy, your first Olympics, | :44:25. | :44:31. | |
fifth place is a great finish. Is there any disappointment at all? Not | :44:32. | :44:36. | |
at all. It has been an amazing experience, and like Becky said, we | :44:37. | :44:42. | |
couldn't have done better, we should be proud of everyone. And you stayed | :44:43. | :44:46. | |
on your feet this time, you were worried you would fall! Were you | :44:47. | :44:53. | |
hoping that you could get a historic first-ever team British medal, but | :44:54. | :44:58. | |
as the nucleus of this team, you can now go to Tokyo with confidence? | :44:59. | :45:03. | |
Definitely. We put everything we could into this comp addition, we | :45:04. | :45:07. | |
fought for every tenth today, and we all went out there and enjoyed it. | :45:08. | :45:11. | |
We didn't get the score we wanted on some apparatus, but it is the | :45:12. | :45:15. | |
Olympics, we did want the medal but we have done all we can, so we are | :45:16. | :45:20. | |
proud. How much to you enjoy your first Olympics? You gave it | :45:21. | :45:27. | |
everything on the floor. I did, so much adrenaline, I really enjoyed | :45:28. | :45:30. | |
it, normally I am so nervous, but these girls made it really fun and | :45:31. | :45:35. | |
we went out and gave our all. And Ruby, your first Olympics, but you | :45:36. | :45:39. | |
go onto a new life, going to America to college. Yes, it has been | :45:40. | :45:45. | |
fantastic, the arena is great and to compete with the girls is great, but | :45:46. | :45:50. | |
yes, ready for a new chapter. Girls, thank you very much, you have done | :45:51. | :45:53. | |
us all proud, and Ellie and Amy, we will see you later in the week. | :45:54. | :45:55. | |
Thank you. CLARE BALDING: It was a terrific | :45:56. | :46:01. | |
effort from our gymnasts today, but it has been a day of frustration and | :46:02. | :46:05. | |
near misses for Great Britain. Over on BBC One next we have this coming | :46:06. | :46:10. | |
up, highlights including Rugby sevens, rowing, tennis and boxing. | :46:11. | :46:16. | |
It has just be one of those days, fourth and fifth places, near | :46:17. | :46:20. | |
misses, great efforts, but not quite coming home with a medal, not yet | :46:21. | :46:23. | |
anyway, because there is still action to come including in the pool | :46:24. | :46:27. | |
much later tonight. Join us on BBC One for around of what has happened | :46:28. | :46:29. | |
far today. 20,000 square miles | :46:30. | :46:35. | |
of rugged coastline, But wildlife is thriving | :46:36. | :46:39. | |
in this unforgiving place. | :46:40. | :46:48. |
