in second and Italy in third, with a chance for Great Britain's men's

:00:00.:00:00.

four to take the glory once again. Constantine Louloudis, enjoy the

:00:07.:00:09.

moment as well, what a smile on his face. I don't expect that is going

:00:10.:00:14.

to go for a while. Good job, the men's four, celebrate they might and

:00:15.:00:19.

that happened just after Glover and stunning, Helen Glover and Heather

:00:20.:00:22.

Stanning, did it once again in the women's pair, retaining their

:00:23.:00:27.

Olympic gold from London 2012 and then did it over a second ahead of

:00:28.:00:32.

New Zealand, two ahead of Denmark as well, so Great Britain with two gold

:00:33.:00:36.

medals down at the Lagoa Stadium this afternoon.

:00:37.:00:41.

He landed the killer blow in the first 500 metres, it was almost done

:00:42.:00:48.

then, wasn't it? It's not done until it's done, you have to get across

:00:49.:00:53.

the line first. We knew it was important to get a good start. I was

:00:54.:00:58.

a bit slow reacting compared to how I can do but four years. Heather was

:00:59.:01:05.

amazing. We have to say a massive thank you to Robina, our coach. He

:01:06.:01:10.

just put that together and that was him in four hours of hard work. He

:01:11.:01:15.

has been really ill at some points and away for many years and he

:01:16.:01:19.

deserves to be up here speaking to you guys. Just thanks to him.

:01:20.:01:27.

Without Robin, we would be nobody. He is an incredible athlete. He was

:01:28.:01:30.

a lightweight but he is an outstanding coach with what he has

:01:31.:01:33.

done with these girls in the last two years has been absolutely

:01:34.:01:40.

incredible. In the aftermath of that triumph, can you compare it to four

:01:41.:01:45.

years ago? It means so much more. We have put a lot of pressure on

:01:46.:01:48.

ourselves even though we tried to talk it down. I've been so emotional

:01:49.:01:52.

this week and that is not likely. It means so much to us. London was home

:01:53.:01:57.

Games and there is nothing more special but this is defending the

:01:58.:02:01.

title. This is proving we're not just good ones but we can be good

:02:02.:02:06.

everyday and it means so much. The pressure we put on ourselves is

:02:07.:02:10.

pretty immense and every time I have spoken to you I have said there's no

:02:11.:02:14.

pressure but inside .Mac we are dying. Can I take you back to the

:02:15.:02:21.

heat that didn't go as well as you wanted? Where you as calm as you

:02:22.:02:26.

seemed in the interviews? With a bit of hindsight we both felt it was a

:02:27.:02:30.

bit lately and crosswind. It wasn't an excuse but if we totally believed

:02:31.:02:34.

it was fair than I think we would have been quite stressed but in the

:02:35.:02:38.

back of our minds it was, OK, it was only a had a bit of wind and we knew

:02:39.:02:45.

than that. We have to go, but very quickly, you say about defending a

:02:46.:02:50.

title, but what about defending defending a title? You never know.

:02:51.:02:55.

We have got our families here to say thank you. We have to get Helen

:02:56.:03:02.

Marriage before we think about next year. I have to think about a

:03:03.:03:08.

wedding. Congratulations, you have a wedding ceremony. I know that Helen

:03:09.:03:18.

Glover 's fiancee is in Rio right now and he is probably down there at

:03:19.:03:22.

the stadium and what an emotional time for the whole family. They've

:03:23.:03:30.

retained their title but what about Twenty20? That can happen another

:03:31.:03:34.

day. Now those guys are enjoying their moment and Olympic gold for

:03:35.:03:38.

the second time. Congratulations to Helen and Heather. We can also bring

:03:39.:03:45.

you news of the first medal of the Games for Ireland. It came in the

:03:46.:03:49.

lightweight men's double sculls for the brothers Gary O'Donovan and Paul

:03:50.:03:56.

O'Donovan. The race was on in the end with France and Norway also

:03:57.:04:00.

joining them on the podium but Gary and Paul are brothers in arms.

:04:01.:04:08.

How excited are you? It is brilliant, we're Ireland's first

:04:09.:04:11.

Olympic rowing medallist ever and we are so proud to be had to represent

:04:12.:04:14.

Ireland living from the middle is unbelievable. What did you think at

:04:15.:04:21.

200 out, did you think you might win it? Since last September we thought

:04:22.:04:24.

we might win it and to come here we gave it everything we could. We came

:04:25.:04:28.

here with a silver medal and we are delighted. As brothers as well, the

:04:29.:04:33.

band of Brothers and the bond of brothers, how proud are you to be

:04:34.:04:40.

doing it with your mate? It is fantastic. He is a sound lad. We

:04:41.:04:45.

have arguments at times but to be up there with him on the podium and our

:04:46.:04:50.

parents are here as well watching and our family and friends, it's

:04:51.:04:54.

fantastic. You had a great day, and you will have a wonderful night.

:04:55.:05:01.

Many congratulations from all of us. ORE: well played to Ireland, they

:05:02.:05:05.

are on the board as far as the medal table is concerned. Have a look at

:05:06.:05:09.

Great Britain! Well up there in fourth place so far with 18 medals

:05:10.:05:15.

in total and a perfect spread. Six bronze, six silver and those two at

:05:16.:05:19.

the rowing today make it six of the best as well. Coming into today they

:05:20.:05:23.

were ahead of the tally from 2012 but I can tell you that on day

:05:24.:05:28.

74-macro years ago Great Britain won six medals. They are up to two so

:05:29.:05:36.

far with two gold and there are plenty of opportunities to make it

:05:37.:05:39.

even more later on today. It makes for a wonderful reading, doesn't it?

:05:40.:05:42.

Great Britain in fourth place. There could be more in the cycling because

:05:43.:05:46.

after the men's sprint did their job last night we are looking forward to

:05:47.:05:50.

seeing the team pursuit which will include Sir Bradley Wiggins and that

:05:51.:05:55.

is this evening. Not to kill the mood too much, we will go from a

:05:56.:05:58.

sport that Great Britain are very good at and win medals for funding,

:05:59.:06:02.

rowing, to one they haven't won an Olympic medal in for 50 years. I am

:06:03.:06:08.

talking about fencing. Despite some really good performances in the

:06:09.:06:11.

individual competition, including getting through to the bronze medal

:06:12.:06:16.

play-off, they haven't had such great success here so far. What

:06:17.:06:21.

about the team events? We will go there right now and see how Richard

:06:22.:06:31.

Kruse and his team-mates of James Andrew Davies and Laurence Halsted

:06:32.:06:33.

will get on. Before we see them in action, here is your guide to

:06:34.:06:37.

fencing. The aim of Olympic fencing is

:06:38.:06:42.

simple, to a the sword without being hit in the process. When a weapon

:06:43.:06:46.

makes contact with a fencers target area but it is recorded

:06:47.:06:50.

electronically, using wireless technology, and the point is scored.

:06:51.:06:56.

There are three types of swords in fencing, epee, foil and sabre. The

:06:57.:07:02.

epee is a heavy and thrusting sword with a triangular blade and hits are

:07:03.:07:05.

only scored with the point of the blade but they can be to any part of

:07:06.:07:10.

the body. Foyle is the lightest of the swords with a flexible,

:07:11.:07:17.

rectangular blade. Points can only be scored with the tip of the blade

:07:18.:07:20.

of land within the target area on the torso. The sabre is similar in

:07:21.:07:24.

length and weight to foil but events can cut with the blade as well as

:07:25.:07:28.

hit with the point. The target area for the sabre is from the waist to

:07:29.:07:33.

the top of the head. In foil and sabre at the rules of right of way

:07:34.:07:37.

strongly favour the fencer who attacks first, meaning both offences

:07:38.:07:42.

attacked simultaneously the point goes to the competitor who makes the

:07:43.:07:47.

first move. In the individual knockout competition each bout can

:07:48.:07:52.

last for 15 minutes but if a fencer makes a hit before the time expires

:07:53.:07:56.

the bout finishes. In the team events there are three fencers per

:07:57.:08:01.

team and each at competes against every fencer in the opposing team.

:08:02.:08:05.

The bout finishes after five hits or three minutes, whichever is sooner.

:08:06.:08:09.

The second bout finishes after a team makes ten hits or the bout

:08:10.:08:15.

reaches ten minutes. So it continues - is cumulative so a match continues

:08:16.:08:18.

when a team reaches 45 hits or after the ninth bout.

:08:19.:08:25.

And you can see how the great British trio get on in the

:08:26.:08:34.

quarterfinal of the men's quarterfinal foil right now over on

:08:35.:08:38.

BBC One. They are taking on Russia and the chance to change the score,

:08:39.:08:44.

having not won an Olympic medal for 50 years. Here on BBC Four we are

:08:45.:08:50.

going back to the badminton. We teased it for you earlier in the

:08:51.:08:54.

programme with Chris and Gabby Adcock waiting to change the record

:08:55.:09:00.

for British badminton players. They are in group B and they are taking

:09:01.:09:06.

on the Danish pair right now. They lost their opening match against the

:09:07.:09:12.

Chinese silver medallists from 2012 but right now they are against the

:09:13.:09:18.

Danish pair and leading by one set to love so we will go and join our

:09:19.:09:20.

commentators for this one. Well, how will this badminton

:09:21.:09:53.

bonanza unfold in the next nine days? Wall-to-wall action here from

:09:54.:09:58.

Pavilion for. There is some kind of distraction here but we are not sure

:09:59.:10:06.

what. There is an expectation on the fourth seeds to emerge and seed --

:10:07.:10:11.

unscathed here. The fourth teams are the team in black from Denmark, but

:10:12.:10:17.

they are really up against it with Chris and Gabby Babcock from Great

:10:18.:10:23.

Britain -- Adcock from Great Britain playing some seriously good

:10:24.:10:28.

badminton here. Both teams are so familiar with each other 's pattern

:10:29.:10:38.

of play. They are executing those patterns of play and those strengths

:10:39.:10:39.

as best they can. A lovely slice, and again. Reactive

:10:40.:11:03.

brilliance. Fischer Nielsen was quick to close to the net there to

:11:04.:11:17.

Christina 's delight. A tap of reassurance from Chris with the

:11:18.:11:18.

racket. A tight tumbling shot there from

:11:19.:11:42.

Christinna Pedersen. She is delighted with that. That is a

:11:43.:11:46.

precision strike. So reducing the deficit once again.

:11:47.:12:23.

Chris and Gabby Adcock here, a well played smash from Chris. Pedersen

:12:24.:12:27.

was frustrated because she thought she had the measure of that one but

:12:28.:12:33.

unable to counter it. It is all about getting runs of momentum.

:12:34.:12:46.

Click server from Gabby. That is a really excellent cross that shot

:12:47.:12:50.

from Chris Baird. Took all the speed and pace out and it was a deft

:12:51.:13:02.

touch. So, the longest rally in this match has been 38 shots, that was in

:13:03.:13:11.

the opening game. They have used 16 shuttles already. Hullabaloo on an

:13:12.:13:23.

adjacent court. You can see how menacing he is upstairs, can't you?

:13:24.:13:31.

Merciless smash. He is a lefty. So much pace. Of course, Chris is a

:13:32.:13:38.

lefty as well. Can he returned the compliment? It is a 1-point game.

:13:39.:13:43.

There is a long way to go. Brilliant from Gabby Adcock.

:13:44.:14:05.

Explosive first step onto that wonderful soft hands around the net.

:14:06.:14:10.

Kept the racket up throughout. Look at her, so seeking that one.

:14:11.:14:13.

Wonderful concentration. Deadlock on the scoreboard. Tension

:14:14.:14:30.

palpable. Each point now greeted with a roar.

:14:31.:14:54.

Each point so significant in the context of this group. This, for the

:14:55.:15:00.

British duo, is a must win match. Having lost their opener yesterday,

:15:01.:15:06.

but they did console themselves by taking a game in that opening match.

:15:07.:15:12.

That might count in the end. That is a good lead from Chris Adcock. Gabby

:15:13.:15:15.

gave him the cry of, leave. Unlike a lot of husbands, he's not

:15:16.:15:21.

entirely deaf! A quick towel down granted by the

:15:22.:15:56.

umpire. Pretty hot and sticky here in Riocentro pavilion four. It's

:15:57.:15:59.

been a crackling atmosphere throughout, it really has. There is

:16:00.:16:03.

always three sessions in the badminton. Starting at different

:16:04.:16:07.

times in the day. They start at eight K and, until 2pm, then 3:30pm

:16:08.:16:14.

until 6pm, then an evening session until 11pm. Medals -- medal

:16:15.:16:18.

ceremonies will be between the 17th - 20 August.

:16:19.:16:32.

172 athletes amongst five disciplines. Who will be other medal

:16:33.:16:45.

podiums? At the sharp end. It's eight two point game and the

:16:46.:16:51.

marginal underdogs in the ascendancy, just three world ranking

:16:52.:16:56.

spots between them, this team is seventh ranked and the seeds are

:16:57.:16:57.

fourth-ranked. I remember in Jakarta, the world

:16:58.:17:29.

champs of last year, they had to pull out of the quarterfinals of the

:17:30.:17:33.

mixed doubles, the Adcocks, it was really frustrating because Chris got

:17:34.:17:39.

Delhi belly, if you will, and they are very, very thorough. With all of

:17:40.:17:46.

the preparations. They were even using hand wipes, every time they

:17:47.:17:50.

were going in and out of doors, just to guard against anything like that,

:17:51.:17:55.

I was told. They are so professional in their preparations, but he still

:17:56.:17:59.

got sick and was unable to contest the quarterfinals, so they had to

:18:00.:18:03.

withdraw. That was really frustrating. There was a sort of, it

:18:04.:18:08.

was a dark day for British badminton, that one, I can recall

:18:09.:18:13.

it, I was there on site and it was a sad state of affairs because they've

:18:14.:18:16.

played so well to engineer a quarterfinal spot in the mixed

:18:17.:18:21.

doubles in Jakarta. It was an historic venue and they were

:18:22.:18:29.

completely deflated, understandably. So we are back on terms here, still

:18:30.:18:33.

nothing between them now. The Danes recovering well.

:18:34.:18:37.

Desperately trying to get high up the net so they can pick these shots

:18:38.:18:52.

up quickly. Take charge of the rallies, tight

:18:53.:18:58.

net shots are good of course. Good flat hard drive from Chris

:18:59.:19:17.

they're insured the point, so again it's a two point game and it's great

:19:18.:19:20.

to see them smiling and enjoying themselves out there. I'm sure it

:19:21.:19:24.

leads to better performance, when you are having fun in sport you are

:19:25.:19:26.

free and it all comes together. Oh, well, despite the terrific

:19:27.:19:53.

recovery from the Danes, the Britons managing to keep on the front foot

:19:54.:19:59.

throughout and it's an emphatic smash put away by this man.

:20:00.:20:09.

Joachim Fischer Nielsen was frustrated they couldn't turn that

:20:10.:20:14.

around. It's a three point game in favour of the Reds at the moment in

:20:15.:20:20.

this race to 21. They lost out yesterday did the Adcocks in a very

:20:21.:20:30.

close contest against the Chinese, ranked one spot above them. That's

:20:31.:20:34.

not contaminated their minds in this match, they have put that away,

:20:35.:20:40.

flushed it away. Focusing well here. Well, you always take a risk when

:20:41.:20:45.

you go for that flick serve against Joachim Fischer Nielsen but he

:20:46.:20:48.

normally does close the net down quickly. He was very alert there.

:20:49.:20:56.

But of course it's these stern tests that make you other teams stronger.

:20:57.:21:05.

Now the question and everybody's... Who will get across the finish line

:21:06.:21:17.

in this one. -- the question everybody is asking. Everyone is

:21:18.:21:20.

trying to quantify where their team is at. A good leave and a roar of

:21:21.:21:26.

delight of its build wide of the sideline. So they head to the

:21:27.:21:30.

mid-game interval with a 3-point lead, they grabbed the bags and

:21:31.:21:33.

change ends. Just snatching wide there, Fischer

:21:34.:21:38.

Nielsen of Denmark. You're doing great. It's all about

:21:39.:22:25.

relaxation skills between points and trying to get to the third quarter

:22:26.:22:31.

-- the front court, as often as they can. I think that's how I translated

:22:32.:22:38.

that advice from the coach. There was a lot of noise in the

:22:39.:22:43.

background. But it's a 3-point game in favour of the Reds. The Adcocks

:22:44.:22:45.

looking good. Can they sustain? That is big from Christinna

:22:46.:22:59.

Pedersen, she was wise to the flick serve from Gabby Adcock there.

:23:00.:23:22.

He gave it his all, so easy just over press and finding the tape in

:23:23.:23:32.

doing so. It's all about crossing that narrow Fort bridge, carry too

:23:33.:23:38.

many thoughts with you and it becomes cumbersome. Focus down or

:23:39.:23:45.

more two mantras and that's all you go with.

:23:46.:24:01.

And again, a fresh shuttle required. They do take a battering. We are

:24:02.:24:22.

onto the 17th now. It is so nip and tuck the whole way

:24:23.:24:38.

here. Over the last two games both teams have only managed runs of two,

:24:39.:24:42.

that's all, in terms of consecutive points won.

:24:43.:24:48.

Spills wide, Christinna Pedersen, and another roar of delight from the

:24:49.:24:58.

British. So it's a 3-point gain. These two fully aware that it's

:24:59.:25:06.

retrievable. You would imagine they would have to start to do it about

:25:07.:25:08.

now. Brilliant from Chris Adcock! So

:25:09.:25:30.

quick to pounce. They are just absolutely fully dialled in on this

:25:31.:25:37.

one now. Gabby beside him quite knees bent with energy, so they can

:25:38.:25:42.

pounce whichever way they need. It's a four point game.

:25:43.:25:59.

Over pressing from Christinna Pedersen.

:26:00.:26:11.

Now, is this an opportunity for a sneaky little flick serve? Or is he

:26:12.:26:19.

going with something more regular? Joel Kindles and Fisher likes to

:26:20.:26:24.

pounce on that short, low delivery -- Joachim Fischer Nielsen likes to

:26:25.:26:35.

pounce. Well, it's a run of four consecutive points now. For the

:26:36.:26:36.

Adcocks. An anxious look from Christinna

:26:37.:26:50.

Pedersen to her strong left-handed partner.

:26:51.:26:57.

Thunderous, he is ever dangerous, isn't he, but respectful at the same

:26:58.:27:02.

time, which is nice to see. It's been a match played in great spirit

:27:03.:27:06.

which is what the Olympic Games is all about. Bringing together

:27:07.:27:08.

different races, cultures. Well, the Brits were 11-8 up at the

:27:09.:27:39.

mid-game interval, but having come out from there haven't they

:27:40.:27:42.

consolidated with effect? Still a long way to go in this one though.

:27:43.:27:49.

But they really have put their front foot forward of late.

:27:50.:28:01.

Well, the Danes have been too errant too often in this game. And the

:28:02.:28:10.

fourth seeds under a lot of pressure now, because the Adcocks are just

:28:11.:28:17.

three points away from the W. They were denied yesterday, having had

:28:18.:28:20.

match point. They couldn't quite a lot crossed the line against the

:28:21.:28:30.

Chinese duo, but Ma and Xu, now in a commanding position.

:28:31.:28:47.

Good energy between these two. Great dynamics. As a positive. It's about

:28:48.:28:59.

heading to the sun metaphorically speaking the whole time, not

:29:00.:29:00.

allowing negatives into your mind. Well, the Danes got lucky there.

:29:01.:29:14.

Now, is that enough to inspire them to haul this one back to level and

:29:15.:29:15.

beyond? And alarmingly for British fans,

:29:16.:30:15.

that is three points in the row for the black clad Games. Well, we knew

:30:16.:30:22.

the fightback would always be on and it is always tougher to hit winners

:30:23.:30:27.

when you are in front. The psychological dynamics kind of

:30:28.:30:31.

reverse as you sense the finish line is so near. Of course, fresh in

:30:32.:30:36.

their mind, the exploits yesterday of the Chinese, wriggling out of

:30:37.:30:39.

jail. So, Chris sneezed and so the point

:30:40.:31:02.

will be replayed indeed. The umpire would not accept that one. That was

:31:03.:31:06.

interesting, I thought for a second they had lost the point. They

:31:07.:31:19.

stopped the run of points for the Danes at three. Now, can they build

:31:20.:31:28.

from here? Two points away. Two points away from the win, the Adcock

:31:29.:31:33.

's, communication is priority number one, clarity.

:31:34.:31:47.

They just managed to lift above Christina for the first left, but

:31:48.:31:56.

the second one is just going to the tall menace who had his way. It is

:31:57.:32:05.

still a 3-point game, but the Danes have been ever threatening. They

:32:06.:32:14.

managed to twist the second game their way, 24-22. What can they

:32:15.:32:17.

muster here? Brilliant. I cry out from Chris

:32:18.:32:33.

Adcock, and it brings up four match points.

:32:34.:33:18.

Well, they have still got room for manoeuvre. But before they come

:33:19.:33:30.

tension riddled, they want to put this match to bed. Fourth seeds,

:33:31.:33:39.

three points shy here. Three more match points for the Adcock 's. Look

:33:40.:33:56.

at what it means to them. A momentous win in this daunting

:33:57.:34:01.

group. Group three is so laden with four daunting teams. The Adcock 's

:34:02.:34:06.

did they couldn't do yesterday. They missed out on match point yesterday

:34:07.:34:10.

but they have come through today against the fourth seeds and the

:34:11.:34:19.

highest ranked team in the group. Fischer Nielsen and Christinna

:34:20.:34:22.

Pedersen failed in this encounter. You can see what this means to them.

:34:23.:34:23.

Absolute delight! 21-17 in the decider, on their

:34:24.:34:42.

second match point opportunity they put it to bed. Delight for the

:34:43.:34:51.

Adcocks. The Danes denied. The fight goes on in this ever competitive

:34:52.:34:59.

group B. ORE: well, you could see from Chris and Gabby just what it

:35:00.:35:03.

meant to get their first win of this Olympic campaign on the board. It

:35:04.:35:07.

was really a must win game because of the very competitive group, as

:35:08.:35:11.

the competitor or -- commentator was safe.

:35:12.:35:15.

Afterwards they caught up with us. That was an epic match to watch and

:35:16.:35:19.

such an important one to win. Definitely, after coming back -- of

:35:20.:35:24.

the back of a disappointing result yesterday we knew would be crucial

:35:25.:35:27.

to pick ourselves up in the group stages under gives us a good chance

:35:28.:35:30.

of still going through and as long as we keep playing like that we have

:35:31.:35:35.

a great chance. How did you turn things around from yesterday? Was

:35:36.:35:39.

just a case of moving on? It was really hard and obviously we have a

:35:40.:35:42.

match point and it stuck with me for quite a while last night but I had

:35:43.:35:47.

to snap out of it and we had just go and have an important match today.

:35:48.:35:52.

When you get on court it is easy to just be in the moment. We know from

:35:53.:35:56.

performances at the Commonwealth Games and other wins you are right

:35:57.:36:00.

up there with the top in the world but to beat a pair like that really

:36:01.:36:04.

sends out a message today. Definitely, they had the Olympic

:36:05.:36:07.

bronze from last Olympics so we know we are up there on the day and it is

:36:08.:36:11.

just too performs better on the day and luckily today was after we

:36:12.:36:21.

played really well so now it is anyone's going to go through. Poland

:36:22.:36:24.

are up next and it is an amazing atmosphere here. Definitely, it's

:36:25.:36:26.

been a great atmosphere and we have a few home supporters here. We are

:36:27.:36:30.

really enjoying it and that is key. We have enjoyed every minute on

:36:31.:36:33.

court and hopefully we can continue doing that. Congratulations. Thank

:37:08.:37:24.

drive. It has brightened up here on the Olympic Park and it is warm and

:37:25.:37:28.

humid and nice. We have not moved far away from our position in the

:37:29.:37:33.

shelter. This is TV towers, as we called it. A beautiful green

:37:34.:37:39.

building. On the top there you can seek two burly chaps, from the Great

:37:40.:37:44.

Britain rugby sevens team. Can you see us, guys? There you go! They

:37:45.:37:52.

can't hear me, but well played. Sign language. Medal? Show us your medal!

:37:53.:38:03.

Yes! There we go. It took some pretty bonkers sign language but I

:38:04.:38:08.

think we got the message through. They are enjoying themselves, the

:38:09.:38:11.

rugby sevens players. So many people have been down at the Deodoro and

:38:12.:38:15.

lucky enough to get tickets to watch the rugby sevens competitions and

:38:16.:38:19.

both men and women have had an absolute ball of time and it has

:38:20.:38:22.

been one of the success stories of the Rio 2016 Olympics so far, not

:38:23.:38:26.

least Great Britain. Last night they came away with a silver medal but

:38:27.:38:31.

the team that came away with top honours, Fiji, their first-ever

:38:32.:38:33.

medal at the Olympic Games, last night was quite the night.

:38:34.:38:41.

Brazil! There is no doubt about it rugby sevens has been the hit of

:38:42.:38:49.

this Olympics so far. The Australian women have already won the Olympic

:38:50.:38:52.

title and now the Team GB men are through to the final four. The

:38:53.:39:01.

Deodoro Stadium is ready to rock. Dan Norton gets a boot on it. It has

:39:02.:39:07.

eventually come to Kyle Brown, the opening try of this semifinal. Now

:39:08.:39:19.

then, the speedster. He eases past. The first try for Great Britain.

:39:20.:39:28.

Back on his feet. That went to ground. It is a steal by the

:39:29.:39:40.

redshirts. Samuel Cross! He booted off the park. Great Britain are in

:39:41.:39:51.

the Gold final. They will play Fiji. This is the family of the captain of

:39:52.:39:57.

Great Britain, Tom Mitchell. It was unbelievable. He now has the chance

:39:58.:40:02.

to win Olympic gold. I have nothing to say about other than I could not

:40:03.:40:05.

imagine this happening when we flew here.

:40:06.:40:11.

This is the final of the rugby sevens on the first time the sport

:40:12.:40:15.

has been played in the Olympics and Great Britain are guaranteed a

:40:16.:40:19.

medal. Will it be gold? This not certainly hope so. The captain of

:40:20.:40:27.

Fiji scores the first try. It is going to be all over by

:40:28.:40:41.

half-time. It is a mauling, this is ugly. Try for Dan Norton, Great

:40:42.:40:50.

Britain are on the board. They have something the final!

:40:51.:41:00.

Oh, it has gone forward. This could be... No! It is such a moment in the

:41:01.:41:07.

history of Fiji the rugby team and Fiji the country because this is

:41:08.:41:12.

their first ever medal at the Olympic Games, and it is gold. They

:41:13.:41:20.

have thumped Great Britain by 43-7. What you think is happening back

:41:21.:41:25.

home right now? Everyone will be celebrating a jumping up and down

:41:26.:41:29.

and kissing each other and so passionate because this is what it's

:41:30.:41:34.

all about. To witness the historic moment for the tiny island Fiji,

:41:35.:41:39.

this is for all of the people in Fiji! The atmosphere has been

:41:40.:41:42.

unbelievable all weekend. It is awesome to share our sport with the

:41:43.:41:46.

world. For the followers of rugby sevens, this is what every

:41:47.:41:50.

tournament is like so hopefully sevens will go through the roof now

:41:51.:41:53.

and I am looking forward to the next one in Tokyo. ORE: it was an

:41:54.:41:59.

incredible display of strength, speed and agility. I am talking

:42:00.:42:04.

about the Fiji team! I have seen Kat Downes during the reporting that

:42:05.:42:08.

with a hula and she is a bit of a whip it and she has some skills.

:42:09.:42:12.

Rugby sevens made its Olympic debut here at the Rio 2016 Olympics and

:42:13.:42:17.

also here in Rio for the first time in over 100 years is the golf. We

:42:18.:42:21.

were talking about it this morning so we will bring you up-to-date with

:42:22.:42:30.

the action far. Justin Rose has started day too well

:42:31.:42:34.

with two birdies in the opening nine holes. This one coming at the six.

:42:35.:42:39.

It moves into six under par and he is currently fourth on the

:42:40.:42:43.

leaderboard. Belgian 's Thomas Pieters is doing even better with

:42:44.:42:46.

three successive birdies on the front nine. He has just added

:42:47.:42:53.

another at ten, to move to eight under par. He is in second place

:42:54.:42:58.

just now. The open champion, Henrik Stenson, is also making a charge. He

:42:59.:43:04.

has bagged three birdies, the Swede. He talks about not being quite the

:43:05.:43:08.

superstar the Zlatan Ibrahimovic was but if he had bagged an Olympic gold

:43:09.:43:11.

here that could change things. Marcus Fraser from Australia is the

:43:12.:43:14.

man to catch, the overnight leader has improved his score with two

:43:15.:43:19.

birdies today and he is now ten under. Meanwhile we had a hole in

:43:20.:43:24.

one from Justin Rose yesterday. The shot of the day so far has been this

:43:25.:43:30.

eagle at the third from double Masters champion Bubba Watson. How

:43:31.:43:33.

about that? He hasn't had the greatest tournament so far but this

:43:34.:43:38.

deserves a replay. Go one, Bubba Watson, what are you going to do

:43:39.:43:42.

with this one? Spin it back. Beautifully done from Bubba Watson.

:43:43.:43:48.

He is probably still on cloud nine after that shot. We will now go to

:43:49.:43:53.

live coverage from the men's golf on day two.

:43:54.:44:02.

The second shot up to here. That is a birdie. A little movement here.

:44:03.:44:14.

Justin Rose has had a whole bunch of these parts about this length,

:44:15.:44:19.

between 15 and 25 feet, or for birdie and he hasn't really made any

:44:20.:44:26.

of them. There is another. On another day one or two of those are

:44:27.:44:30.

going in and he is higher up that leaderboard. He has left himself

:44:31.:44:35.

with quite a lot of work to do with birdie putts on this second day.

:44:36.:44:52.

Read for birdie at 16. Solid. Patrick Reed, from the Ryder Cup,

:44:53.:44:55.

finding a bit of form in the closing stages of the second round as well.

:44:56.:45:01.

Patrick Reid is happy with his score. Rickie Fowler has made a

:45:02.:45:07.

couple of good putts today that have stood him in better stead but he is

:45:08.:45:12.

back to five over. It is just not happening for Rickie Fowler. Can he

:45:13.:45:14.

slot this one? No, he can't. Seamus Power is four and, he's on

:45:15.:45:27.

the golf course with four holes to play. Soren Kjeldsen is four and on

:45:28.:45:32.

the golf course. Now Marcus Fraser come a tournament leader at 10-under

:45:33.:45:35.

par. That's perfect. Just taking a look

:45:36.:45:58.

over at the 11th hole. A very narrow fairway for much of the opening

:45:59.:46:04.

part, then an wide area before a slum dog left up, not too much in

:46:05.:46:08.

terms of bunkers, only one to concern with yourself with on the

:46:09.:46:13.

approach shot. The green slopes a little bit back to front, but mostly

:46:14.:46:16.

from right to left. After the birdie at 16, his tee shot

:46:17.:46:54.

at 17. So a few players getting in close K, not playing too long, just

:46:55.:46:59.

over 100 metres and Grillo doesn't disappoint either. Now Sergio

:47:00.:47:12.

Garcia, 17th. He is level par for the tournament. Ten shots back from

:47:13.:47:17.

the leader. Oh, fires in something very special.

:47:18.:47:20.

APPLAUSE That's some impressive golf from all

:47:21.:47:30.

three. He got the pin covered, the hole covered. Completely. Let's have

:47:31.:47:35.

another look at this golf shot from Sergio Garcia. Grillo is on the left

:47:36.:47:43.

of the pin, Reed on the right-hand Sergio Garcia says anything you can

:47:44.:47:48.

do, I can do better. Bubba Watson at seven here. The longer par fours,

:47:49.:47:59.

playing nearly 500 yards. He has launched another Bubba special.

:48:00.:48:05.

That's big, a long way down. Martin Kaymer playing with Bubba

:48:06.:48:24.

Watson and Anirban Lahiri. Back to level par, the German.

:48:25.:48:32.

At one stage yesterday he was 5-under par.

:48:33.:48:39.

That's off the beaten track. This is what got Kaymer in trouble

:48:40.:48:49.

yesterday. Missing fairways. That was on 16. 16 gave him his biggest

:48:50.:48:54.

nightmare. And then 18, on the left there. Here's Patrick Reed, first to

:48:55.:49:00.

go, birdie putts for all of the grouping.

:49:01.:49:07.

Sergio Garcia is tapped in, for his birdie. Patrick Reed to get into

:49:08.:49:16.

green here, to get to 1-under par. Just being upset, something of the

:49:17.:49:38.

gallery, it seems, but Patrick Reed has started the day 1-under par,

:49:39.:49:46.

back to even par for the day. Comes off a birdie at 16.

:49:47.:49:55.

Berates himself for that. Yes, it was another camera opportunity that

:49:56.:50:08.

caused him to reset, pull away and reset.

:50:09.:50:14.

Grillo, an online with birdie. -- with his birdie. Reed with par,

:50:15.:50:31.

Grillo for Argentina to get back to two under.

:50:32.:50:37.

No problems for the Argentine. APPLAUSE

:50:38.:50:46.

Marcus Fraser really hasn't put a foot wrong. Only one bogey on the

:50:47.:50:52.

card yesterday. Nothing going wrong today. Check and -- second shot to

:50:53.:51:01.

11. 212 yards to the pin. For his second shot.

:51:02.:51:11.

Oh, that's a great shot. Magnificent shot from Marcus Fraser. He's laying

:51:12.:51:18.

down markers all over the golf course. How do you catch a guy who

:51:19.:51:25.

is playing like this? This is what the other golfers are going to need

:51:26.:51:29.

to try to consider. Because you can do nothing special to catch up to a

:51:30.:51:35.

guy who was just putting in all the right areas. They'll work out a way.

:51:36.:51:43.

There's a fair few in the field that have chased down some illustrious

:51:44.:51:49.

and revered golfers. Did we hear three iron just Ben

:51:50.:52:06.

Foster ends in? It seems so. -- just then, for Henrik Stenson. Longest of

:52:07.:52:18.

the par threes, playing over 200 metres. 14th hole, Stenson. Middle

:52:19.:52:25.

of the green. The same putt that Justin Rose had, the same putt.

:52:26.:52:33.

Marcus Fraser is tantalisingly close with his birdie opportunity on 11.

:52:34.:52:37.

This is Kaymer. Horrible stuff to get out of, but

:52:38.:52:53.

he's done well. The gallery is growing. Wanting to see Martin

:52:54.:52:57.

Kaymer, their draw cards. Of course, the weather aiding the visitors to

:52:58.:53:06.

the golf course at the moment. Lingmerth, four under.

:53:07.:53:16.

He has leaked it out right. Yes, bunker for Justin Rose. Just about

:53:17.:53:52.

pin hi. So it's Marcus Fraser who continues to lead the men's

:53:53.:53:58.

individual stroke play at the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro.

:53:59.:54:21.

Now Bubba has done a few things today which suggests that he has the

:54:22.:54:28.

bit between his teeth. He would like to get something going here.

:54:29.:54:44.

Made the eagle on three, birdie on five.

:54:45.:54:58.

Plenty of club again forced it's going to lead the way just a little.

:54:59.:55:07.

I was so worried about the camera guy, every time you talk to him...

:55:08.:55:11.

Well, it's been a bit of a problem today, everyone wants to get a

:55:12.:55:16.

picture of the stars, so it's playing on his mind, Bubba. Let's

:55:17.:55:21.

move onto David Lingmerth, this to get to 5-under par. Birdie on nine,

:55:22.:55:27.

birdie chance for Lingmerth of Sweden, and he goes to 5-under par.

:55:28.:55:32.

APPLAUSE Out in 32, what a start to his

:55:33.:55:38.

second day, birdies on one, two and three, and a bogey on seven. Justin

:55:39.:55:46.

Rose getting the ball out nicely on 15. That's a very good shot from the

:55:47.:55:49.

Englishman. He had to dig deep to get this one

:55:50.:55:56.

out. The ball was well down. -- Thorbjorn Olesen. A brilliant

:55:57.:56:27.

shot. He has gone inside Garcia's ball. It's one of those where you

:56:28.:56:34.

go, how did it miss the stick? Two over par. Just on the fringe 11,

:56:35.:56:43.

it's looking good, and holds its line, so he pulled one back, he goes

:56:44.:56:46.

to 1-over for the Championship. Katayama has a birdie putt here. He

:56:47.:57:08.

can't find, that will be a double bogey for Katayama.

:57:09.:57:17.

Marcus Fraser after that wonderful shot on 11 can get to 11-under par,

:57:18.:57:27.

stretch his lead to four. Even by his lofty standards over the last

:57:28.:57:31.

day and a half, that approach shot here on 11 was just outstanding. As

:57:32.:57:38.

good as it has been for Marcus Fraser.

:57:39.:57:45.

Probably a putt four feet. Maybe five. Birdie putt for the tournament

:57:46.:57:55.

leader to stretch his lead, and he does that, so Marcus Fraser of

:57:56.:58:01.

Australia at 11-under par leads by four.

:58:02.:58:11.

So Henrik Stenson now at 14, clubbed it up to pin hi, but only the middle

:58:12.:58:21.

of the green, a little left, flag on the far right. Stenson has a long

:58:22.:58:30.

birdie chance. Left well short, Henrik Stenson.

:58:31.:58:42.

Rose, for par. Justin Rose gives one back out of 15. Bubba Watson. Flag

:58:43.:59:09.

out, confident. Just didn't hit it. Oh, Bubba

:59:10.:59:31.

India's Anirban Lahiri on the seventh, could do with some fortune

:59:32.:59:43.

coming his way. 2015 Asian Cup Tour Order of Merit winner, the highest

:59:44.:59:47.

finish in a major Championship when he finished tied for fifth at the US

:59:48.:59:53.

PGA last year, highest by an Indian player, that is.

:59:54.:59:57.

Following in the footsteps of players before him, Anirban Lahiri.

:59:58.:00:07.

A putt for birdie on seven. It doesn't move, it doesn't move at

:00:08.:00:25.

all. He was in the international team in the Presidents cup in South

:00:26.:00:30.

Korea last season. Marcus Fraser of the tournament leader and on the

:00:31.:00:32.

12th, 11 under par. And he's found the sand. The 12th

:00:33.:00:56.

hole is 509 and 11 yards, 467 metres. It is another test and a

:00:57.:01:04.

pretty long hole. There is a doglegs right and nothing much in the way of

:01:05.:01:12.

sand to protect the green. Not much in the way of birdies here on 12

:01:13.:01:19.

either way. Henrik Stenson needs this to stay 7-under par on the

:01:20.:01:27.

14th. That is amiss on the low side of the hole. I can't believe it's

:01:28.:01:32.

missed. A bogey on 14th Henrik Stenson. On 17, Alex Dzeko for

:01:33.:01:44.

birdie. He has made a couple of these, a good-looking role as well.

:01:45.:01:55.

Unkind. -- Alex Cejka. All golf balls are unkind. That's not true.

:01:56.:02:03.

Seamus Power is having a wonderful day on the golf course. He is

:02:04.:02:11.

indeed. He is 3-under par. It is a driveable par-4. Seamus Power makes

:02:12.:02:21.

it an eagle at 16. Four birdies and an eagle on his 2nd round card, just

:02:22.:02:28.

that bogey coming on 15. Yes, a splendid rant from Seamus Power. The

:02:29.:02:33.

drop shot at 15, but what a way to get it back, with an eagle at 16.

:02:34.:02:39.

Following on from another eagle at 16 earlier.

:02:40.:02:50.

This is Felipe Aguilar at the 10th hole. He is confident of a birdie.

:02:51.:02:57.

The land it up nicely. What we have seen today, is the early morning

:02:58.:03:01.

rain, as nasty as it looked, has softened up the greens and make them

:03:02.:03:04.

more receptive and the players have really gone for these pins and

:03:05.:03:08.

Henrik Stenson will be doing the same here. That is a blow for

:03:09.:03:17.

Stenson. He has dropped back to 6-under par, level with Gregory

:03:18.:03:19.

Bourdy who is in the clubhouse now. So, the 15th, Henrik Stenson. He is

:03:20.:03:31.

going with a long iron here. That is fine. The middle of the

:03:32.:03:48.

fairway for the Swede. The middle of the 10th green. This

:03:49.:04:12.

is Danny Chia from Malaysia for birdie. Well done. Level par. Sergio

:04:13.:04:24.

Garcia, in the front of the green here on 18. It was an eagle

:04:25.:04:29.

yesterday to finishes day, and it was close again. That has run past

:04:30.:04:40.

by about 7 or 8 feet. Opportunities coming and going for the Spaniard. 1

:04:41.:04:47.

of the hottest golfers on the course, back on the 17th tee, is

:04:48.:04:57.

Ireland 's Seamus Power. He has just eagled the 16th, coming off a bogey

:04:58.:04:58.

on 15. Padraig Harrington, his Irish fellow

:04:59.:05:26.

countryman is 1-over for the day, 2 birdies and 3 bogeys. Danny Willett,

:05:27.:05:32.

after two birdies to open his 2nd round has now got 3 bogeys on the

:05:33.:05:37.

card and he is 1-over par, Danny Willett of Great Britain. But this

:05:38.:05:49.

is Seamus Power. Well, not as close as some. By some distance. But he

:05:50.:05:56.

has had a very good day on the golf course today. The man from

:05:57.:05:59.

Waterford. This is Lin Wen-tang from Chinese

:06:00.:06:16.

take P -- Chinese Taipei. The 2009 Chinese open champion. That has had

:06:17.:06:25.

a hop and a skip and it is not going to come back from there. Just go

:06:26.:06:36.

back to 16, Justin Rose. It looks like 3-wood.

:06:37.:06:54.

Two eagles we have had on 16. Seamus Power and the Portuguese golfer.

:06:55.:07:05.

Gregory Bourdy is in the clubhouse with a 69. This is Henrik Stenson.

:07:06.:07:21.

The wind really is negligible. Well, they are waiting for Thongchai

:07:22.:07:54.

Jaidee to play his 3rd shot. A little bit of trouble for Thongchai

:07:55.:07:59.

Jaidee on 15. He is having a tough day at the office here and that

:08:00.:08:08.

rolls back down the fairway. The number of holes on this golf course,

:08:09.:08:12.

the greens have run-off areas, so now Henrik Stenson knows the club

:08:13.:08:16.

and he is going to pull the trigger here on 15.

:08:17.:08:28.

5 consecutive pars for Stenson, he would love to make more birdie runs

:08:29.:08:39.

as he had at the start of the round. The 2nd of 15 -- the 2nd at 15,

:08:40.:08:44.

Henrik Stenson. Oh, wonderful shot from the Swede.

:08:45.:09:01.

He had some time to ponder the shot, but that was magnificent. The 12th

:09:02.:09:12.

hole, this is Marcus Fraser. 245 yards to the pin, and he's nicely

:09:13.:09:20.

out of there. There wasn't much by way of a lip. Did he get down? Yes,

:09:21.:09:30.

but he's still short. Still work to do on 12. Rafael Cabrera-Bello is at

:09:31.:09:37.

15 alongside is Henrik Stenson and this is his 2nd. Can he trouble off

:09:38.:09:41.

the tee in trouble with the follow-up is his 2nd. Can he trouble

:09:42.:09:44.

off the tee in trouble with the follow-up as well?

:09:45.:09:59.

Oh, it just stayed. He placed out to the right. Now, 18. Patrick Reed for

:10:00.:10:13.

birdie, to finish up. Oh, solidly done by Patrick Reed. It finishes

:10:14.:10:17.

with a birdie at 18 and goes to two under par for the day and 1-under

:10:18.:10:24.

par for the Championship, so a good finish from Patrick Reed. Fraser is

:10:25.:10:32.

3rd to 12th. He has got to work. Not bad. It is about 10 feet, 9 or 10

:10:33.:10:39.

feet, for his part. That is going to be a tester.

:10:40.:10:46.

He found the sand with his tee shot. Justin Rose at 16, his 2nd shot.

:10:47.:11:00.

Par-4. Very close, just short of the green, and rolls it up into a very

:11:01.:11:06.

good position to claim back a birdie. Here is go Bears, the

:11:07.:11:20.

Argentine, Fabian Gomez, at 10, his 3rd. That will do. That will do.

:11:21.:11:36.

Fabian Gomez, that was a special play. Using the contours there

:11:37.:11:43.

brilliantly. Danny Willett, 2nd to the night.

:11:44.:11:48.

Wonderful. Very nice. He began his 2nd round with birdies on 1 and 2

:11:49.:11:55.

but there has been 3 bogeys since. Seamus Power is a long way from the

:11:56.:12:04.

hole here on 17 on this very short par-3. It has given that plenty. He

:12:05.:12:17.

has just made an eagle on 16. Bubba Watson has a 6 footer here for his

:12:18.:12:24.

part on the par-3 8th. To stay 1-under. Didn't like it. Not at all,

:12:25.:12:35.

he was up out of that straightaway. So, shot gone therefore Bubba

:12:36.:12:46.

Watson. His fellow American, Rickie Fowler, on 16, his 2nd. Still at

:12:47.:12:52.

5-over for the tournament. Looking good. How about rolling in? No. But

:12:53.:13:06.

that will be a birdie. Well, there is a chance here with only 1 bogey

:13:07.:13:09.

on the card yesterday for Marcus Fraser. Here on 12, this is for par.

:13:10.:13:23.

It has been absolutely solid. Showing a very calm disposition on

:13:24.:13:26.

the golf course. He is 11-under, Thomas Pieters

:13:27.:13:40.

Belgium is 7-under par and Gregory Bourdy, in the clubhouse at 6-under

:13:41.:13:44.

with Henrik Stenson, out on the golf course.

:13:45.:13:55.

Marcus Fraser, par putt on 12. Never there. Never online. So, that is a

:13:56.:14:09.

shot dropped and he is back at 10-under par. He is still the leader

:14:10.:14:19.

by 3. ORE: they never like dropping shots, golfers, but Marcus Fraser

:14:20.:14:24.

still has a 3 shot lead at the top of the board. This coverage will

:14:25.:14:27.

continue over on the website on the Red Button as well, as Britain 's

:14:28.:14:32.

Justin Rose gets ready to take his shot on the green. There is more

:14:33.:14:40.

Brits in action here in Baja, on the coast of Rio de Janeiro, because

:14:41.:14:44.

Great Britain 's number 1 in the tennis is going, not quite that

:14:45.:14:49.

stadium, he's actually on Court Number Two against Steve Johnson,

:14:50.:14:52.

which is a little more to the left, as you look at it. Andy Murray

:14:53.:14:57.

hasn't really been travelled so far in this tournament. Any 3 Games he

:14:58.:15:02.

has only dropped 1 set so far and here he is a quarterfinal the

:15:03.:15:08.

American Steve Johnson. A 5- 0 up in the 1st set. It is going Andy Murray

:15:09.:15:13.

's way. The reigning champion is closing in on what would be a

:15:14.:15:19.

fantastic 2nd Olympic title. A couple of matches to go, not least

:15:20.:15:23.

set here in the quarterfinal against Steve Johnson. We will be joining

:15:24.:15:26.

that in about half an hour's time. Murray might have wrapped it up by

:15:27.:15:31.

then but that is there on BBC sport website and the Red Button as well

:15:32.:15:34.

if you want to all the action for Andy Murray.

:15:35.:15:40.

Shall we take a quick picture? Let's meet this guy. As quick as you can,

:15:41.:15:49.

thank you. Oh! Locate, shall we show the current? No? OK, that's fine,

:15:50.:15:57.

thank you very much. Communication breakdown. Let's go quickly while

:15:58.:16:02.

he's not noticing! Thank you, made, take care, goodbye. From the tennis

:16:03.:16:06.

and that rather awkward moment, we're seriously, live on BBC Four,

:16:07.:16:10.

you wouldn't expect that, maybe you would, we're going to go to the

:16:11.:16:12.

Aquatics Centre now because it's time to check in on the swimming,

:16:13.:16:17.

more medals could be won at this evening for Great Britain and Helen,

:16:18.:16:21.

you are going to feature one of Great Britain's loveliest members of

:16:22.:16:25.

the team. They are all lovely, but Fran Halsall is a treat. Ewan-macro

:16:26.:16:32.

she is a treat. I think you have had your awkward moment! Fran Halsall is

:16:33.:16:36.

a lovely lady, hoping to become the fastest woman on the planet in the

:16:37.:16:40.

pool and she goes in the heat this afternoon. Here is a bit more about

:16:41.:16:43.

France. And London was a difficult

:16:44.:16:48.

experience in the fact that I wanted to swim well, I put my heart, soul,

:16:49.:16:52.

everything into swimming as fast as I could and on the day I didn't get

:16:53.:16:57.

the result that I wanted, that I'd spent four years working for. Amat

:16:58.:17:02.

Hayter-macro oh dear me, 91 hundredths of a second. Had to make

:17:03.:17:07.

a decision, what are you going to do about it, do you want to carry on

:17:08.:17:11.

swimming? Yes. You have to get on with it and put it to the back of

:17:12.:17:14.

your mind. You can't hold onto emotions like that for three years,

:17:15.:17:18.

otherwise it will drive you insane. I have taken everything I from that

:17:19.:17:21.

experience and put it to good use this time. What would an Olympic

:17:22.:17:29.

medal mean to you? You have won worlds, European,, while honours?

:17:30.:17:34.

For me it would put to bed what happened in London, it would be I

:17:35.:17:41.

want to do it, I feel like I can do it, it would mean I was right, I can

:17:42.:17:45.

do that. It's anyone's dream as an athlete and if they say it's not

:17:46.:17:48.

they may be lying about it, I think! I'd love to stand on the podium,

:17:49.:17:54.

that's what I race to do. I race to get medals want to win big

:17:55.:17:58.

competitions. When you stand there in the line-up and there is eight of

:17:59.:18:01.

you and any one of eight goals can make the final in Rio and could make

:18:02.:18:07.

the final, it's the way it is, getting into the final, being

:18:08.:18:11.

against those goals, I've done it before, I've beaten these goals

:18:12.:18:15.

before, I know what I'm doing, it's me swimming my race and enjoying it.

:18:16.:18:20.

Do you think this will be your last Games? No, I'm enjoying swimming!

:18:21.:18:24.

The more you enjoy it, the more you want to do it. Olympic cycles are

:18:25.:18:29.

four years long but from the last Olympics to this Olympics has gone

:18:30.:18:32.

so quickly that doing another one doesn't seem like it that long a

:18:33.:18:36.

time. I don't know if it's because I'm getting older that time seems

:18:37.:18:42.

shorter now, or what, but Tokyo, I'll be 30. If I'm still enjoying

:18:43.:18:46.

what I'm doing and I'm in a good place for sport and doing what I

:18:47.:18:51.

love and a great environment I think I could do another four years. Fran

:18:52.:18:54.

Halsall talking to Nick Hope there, Becky Adlington, four time Olympic

:18:55.:18:59.

medallist and Mark Foster, five-time Olympian. It's easy to make the

:19:00.:19:04.

comparison with London but Fran Halsall has had a good four years?

:19:05.:19:09.

Fran is happy and it's not very often you can say that about Fran,

:19:10.:19:13.

not in a negative way but as in she's not enjoy the sport, that's

:19:14.:19:16.

what I mean. She's not really, really loved it and wanted to be

:19:17.:19:22.

there. She sought a little bit too much in the past three years -- she

:19:23.:19:26.

has sought a bit too much, and in the past three years has thought why

:19:27.:19:30.

not enjoy it and enjoy what I do and it has paid off. She was our only

:19:31.:19:34.

medallist in 2013 at the World Championships. She is smiling, she

:19:35.:19:38.

is happy, she is enjoying life, she has a new boyfriend, she is on top

:19:39.:19:42.

of the world and it makes a difference. A happy swimmer is a

:19:43.:19:50.

good swimmer, four front. Do you agree? Ukip the nail on the head,

:19:51.:19:53.

she's in a happy place that home. If swimming is your only thing in life

:19:54.:19:59.

you need a distraction, she has that now, James Gibson has been looking

:20:00.:20:03.

after her for four years and she has the consistency there, done more

:20:04.:20:06.

conditioning work and she seems to be flying. If she does her best time

:20:07.:20:11.

she could win it but there will be, as she mentioned, six out of ten of

:20:12.:20:18.

the top swimmers in this race and the one that won last night, it will

:20:19.:20:22.

be tight. Hopefully she has the monkey off her back and she can let

:20:23.:20:27.

it happen. I saw her at the Europeans in May and I thought she

:20:28.:20:30.

looked in good form, she could do something in Rio, I thought? Mark

:20:31.:20:35.

Arthur spoken a lot about Swinburne -- sprinters just doing the 50

:20:36.:20:41.

metres, didn't do well in the 100 metres but has had a great 50. Fran

:20:42.:20:45.

stepped away from it after London and said I wanted to enjoy the

:20:46.:20:50.

sport, I want to be a 50 metres freestyle swimmer, I will put all my

:20:51.:20:53.

eggs in one basket and that's what she's enjoying and it's working for

:20:54.:20:58.

her, doesn't try to stretch yourself too thin and really concentrates on

:20:59.:21:02.

it, like Ben Proud has been doing. There has always been this pressure

:21:03.:21:06.

she needs to do the 100 metres and it's like why, why not let be happy

:21:07.:21:12.

and do what she does. She does it so well. That's people like me putting

:21:13.:21:17.

the pressure on her. Sprinting has become so specific, Usain Bolt does

:21:18.:21:22.

the 100 and 200, he wouldn't do the 200 and 400, they're completely

:21:23.:21:28.

different energy systems. A 50 swimmer now specialises in the 50.

:21:29.:21:32.

The Olympic champion and world champion and will probably win

:21:33.:21:36.

tonight, he just does 50, he can do a good 100 but doesn't make the

:21:37.:21:41.

final. He focuses on the 50. That's what she has done. We have talked

:21:42.:21:45.

about how fast some of the girls are, we talked about the Campbell

:21:46.:21:51.

sisters yesterday, we expected to see them both on the podium. We

:21:52.:21:55.

jinxed them. Neither of them made it. It was the Williams sisters!

:21:56.:22:02.

Keita Balde either come in and put it right from last night, or she

:22:03.:22:07.

will come in and be flat and not produce that much -- Kate will

:22:08.:22:12.

either come in. Lets join heat eight of the women's 50 metres which is

:22:13.:22:13.

starting. Already we have seen 27, it may make

:22:14.:22:36.

the semi. Is. -- that may make the summit. It has got quite serious,

:22:37.:22:40.

the swimmers suddenly gone from 27s and 28s as their seeded time,

:22:41.:22:49.

straight into the 25 lows. Quite a few 50-metre butterfly and freestyle

:22:50.:22:56.

swimmers at the World Championships, they have the 50 butterfly

:22:57.:23:00.

breaststroke, butterfly and freestyle, here at the Olympics only

:23:01.:23:05.

the 53. I'm not sure why. Is a breaststroke and I think it's

:23:06.:23:08.

totally unfair will stop the freestyle is get the whole range.

:23:09.:23:14.

But as you say, a lot of the 50 fly specialists choosing to do this one

:23:15.:23:18.

and ramp up and take the two events so they can do this wannabe limpet

:23:19.:23:19.

games. Fran is very good at both. So heat eight of the women's 50

:23:20.:23:32.

metres freestyle. They are starting to get quicker. A good start from

:23:33.:23:37.

the pole in -- from the Pole inlay number five. Going close to as is

:23:38.:23:45.

Garcia, she's going really well, Vanessa Garcia, from Puerto Rico.

:23:46.:23:49.

She's going to take it in the outside lane, 24.9. Wow. If these

:23:50.:23:56.

last three heats are a little bit slower, that's got an outside chance

:23:57.:24:00.

of making this, I don't think it will, but certainly a 24 .9, with

:24:01.:24:11.

nine, 11, that is four heats to go, that is quick. The Puerto Rican

:24:12.:24:14.

national champion. You have the second string sink swimmers for the

:24:15.:24:18.

European nations soap the French woman that came second is a second

:24:19.:24:24.

string swimmer, her compatriot will be coming up in heat ten. The Poland

:24:25.:24:32.

and Italians all have other swimmers in the latter heats. Japan is coming

:24:33.:24:38.

later. The poetry can come a brilliant job from late eight, --

:24:39.:24:42.

from Puerto Rico. It has taken a while to get under 25, we thought it

:24:43.:24:48.

might happen earlier. Look what it means to them, very

:24:49.:24:53.

good indeed. Garcia winning heat eight, Henique second. They have to

:24:54.:25:02.

be looking at about 24.7 or 24.6, something like that, and the

:25:03.:25:04.

distance and coming up now, heat nine of 12.

:25:05.:25:15.

Farida Osman was a World Championship finalist in the flight,

:25:16.:25:24.

a semifinalist here in the 100. It's quite a common thing to do, the real

:25:25.:25:27.

serious proper sprinters. Are you telling me that is what you did? You

:25:28.:25:30.

are hoping my memory is good enough to remember that you were brilliant

:25:31.:25:37.

at both? I wasn't that hopeful! It's getting worse as I get older! We

:25:38.:25:47.

have Inge Dekker in lane seven, it's her birthday next week. Asking for

:25:48.:25:55.

24.5 to make the semis, the top ten in the world this year coming into

:25:56.:26:04.

the Olympics, tense was 24.47, so actually 24.47. I'm going to guess

:26:05.:26:14.

about 7.5. -- 24.7 five. Quite a few in the last unseeded heats could do

:26:15.:26:18.

it. The Dutch are not having the best meets here so far and Inge

:26:19.:26:24.

Dekker in lane seven, one lane from the right-hand side, having a decent

:26:25.:26:30.

start. Possibly the best starting five, from Poland. At the moment it

:26:31.:26:36.

is Inge Dekker in seven, she has been an Olympic champion in the

:26:37.:26:42.

women's 4x100 relay a few times. Is she going to get 24.7? She is, 24.7

:26:43.:26:50.

seven. Is going to be interesting, it's going to be very, very close

:26:51.:26:55.

indeed now. There is three big heats to go, the fastest 24 women in the

:26:56.:27:00.

world in water are in the next three heats. Already looking at a 24.7.

:27:01.:27:07.

The African record for the Egyptian in second, Farida Osman, so the

:27:08.:27:12.

flight three sprint double working well for her. New African record,

:27:13.:27:15.

very good. Farida Osman in four, you can't tell

:27:16.:27:27.

too much from that. You can't tell much from that either. I think the

:27:28.:27:32.

speed of these women slightly foxing the cameramen at the moment here at

:27:33.:27:35.

the Olympic Games. There is Inge Dekker, she wins in 24.77. Now she's

:27:36.:27:41.

going to have to wait to see if that is fast enough. So the last of the

:27:42.:27:45.

unseeded heats won by Inge Dekker of the Netherlands, 24.7, a new African

:27:46.:27:53.

record for Farida Osman in second. You might tell from the sound behind

:27:54.:27:57.

as the Brazilian team have a swimmer in the next heat. She will be in

:27:58.:28:08.

lane one. There she is, Graciele Herrmann. It's a good atmosphere. It

:28:09.:28:12.

only feels like it is about one third to one half full, there are

:28:13.:28:17.

15,500 seats here but I'd be slightly surprised if there is more

:28:18.:28:21.

than 7000 or 8000 in here, but they know how to make a noise when there

:28:22.:28:25.

is Brazilian is. Graciele Herrmann in lane one, in the green suit of

:28:26.:28:31.

Brazil. Not quite sure why we don't have locks on the suits, like the

:28:32.:28:39.

full suit made out of a flag -- we should have flags on the suits. Like

:28:40.:28:43.

the full Union Jack for the women's swimming suit, they are all Blacks,

:28:44.:28:48.

look at that. It's a good idea, a fine idea. The second fastest in the

:28:49.:29:02.

world this year, 24.07, in lane four Kromowidjojo. They are going to have

:29:03.:29:09.

to get on it, there's no hanging around for this heat because anybody

:29:10.:29:15.

could make it in. It's a very fast heat, gold and silver from London

:29:16.:29:22.

2012. Gold to Kromowidjojo in four and the Belarussian, the 30-year-old

:29:23.:29:33.

six, Herasimenia. Canada are having a good meet as well.

:29:34.:29:40.

The first of unseeded heats of the women's 50 metres freestyle, the

:29:41.:29:45.

defending Olympic champion Kromowidjojo of the Netherlands

:29:46.:29:50.

first up and going well in four, as is USA and five. The blackout of the

:29:51.:29:57.

Netherlands in four, looks like the American in five are coming through,

:29:58.:30:03.

the silver-medallist London 2012 in six, so close, Herasimenia WinZip,

:30:04.:30:18.

then Weitzeil. Really, really close. Some good swimming there, trying not

:30:19.:30:24.

to show you are out of breath! That was a big effort. Great start in the

:30:25.:30:28.

middle of your pool here, like, click, underwater, using a

:30:29.:30:33.

brilliantly, just about 13 metres from Kromowidjojo. Managed to hang

:30:34.:30:37.

in for third, it starts to be a bit of a bash at this point. Herasimenia

:30:38.:30:42.

coming through at this point, not breathing, just breathing monster

:30:43.:30:46.

the right there. Then held it. All the way to the end, to there. I

:30:47.:30:52.

thought that Weitzeil got the touch there but she was touched out by 61

:30:53.:30:56.

hundredths of a second, the white hat of the USA. It was the

:30:57.:31:01.

Belarussian winner. So the first of unseeded heats, the fastest was

:31:02.:31:06.

reasonably quick but it surprisingly fast, Herasimenia winning it, a tie

:31:07.:31:09.

for third. What is going to happen here?

:31:10.:31:22.

Finally Fran Halsall gets a swim and she has had to wait 37 days of

:31:23.:31:28.

swimming. She was 5th in London. She should certainly make it through to

:31:29.:31:33.

the semi, but what will happen here? Cate Campbell. Cate Campbell was

:31:34.:31:42.

very disappointing last night. With the USA kit right behind her is

:31:43.:31:51.

Simone Manuel, a gold medallist. Fran Halsall busy wants to feel the

:31:52.:31:57.

water. She has tucked the band underneath her 2nd hat and all

:31:58.:32:02.

swimmers have routines and ways they do things. Simone Manuel is just

:32:03.:32:05.

jumping up and down behind the block and hasn't got onto the podium yet.

:32:06.:32:11.

They are all facing towards, away from the start. It is interesting,

:32:12.:32:18.

all except 1 or 2. Look at that, a bizarre way to face left or right.

:32:19.:32:24.

This is an enormous quality field. The new Olympic champion in lane 3,

:32:25.:32:27.

the 1st black woman to ever win a Gold Medal in the swimming pool. Her

:32:28.:32:33.

2nd half of how a race -- race yesterday was very quick and

:32:34.:32:35.

everyone was betting on Cate Campbell to win and she was 4.

:32:36.:32:42.

Actually she wasn't even forth, she was 6. She was terrible. A good

:32:43.:32:49.

start in 7. Jeanette Ottesen is probably got the best start, right

:32:50.:32:53.

next to Fran Halsall. Fran Halsall has had a good 30 metres indeed and

:32:54.:32:58.

starting to swim away. She is swimming away in line 5. This is a

:32:59.:33:05.

very good indeed. An excellent job from Fran Halsall, 24.20 6. That is

:33:06.:33:11.

enormously encouraging. She has had to wait so long for it. It is not

:33:12.:33:20.

easy to do so. -- 24.2 6. Well done, Fran. That was a great swim. She

:33:21.:33:25.

started to come away at the end and she has been working with James

:33:26.:33:29.

Gibson, a sprint specialist coach and a former world champion himself,

:33:30.:33:32.

up in Loughborough. They have been working on a 4-year plan that

:33:33.:33:37.

concludes here. That was a brilliant showing in the heats. She talks

:33:38.:33:44.

about needing perfection on every little bit and she did close to a

:33:45.:33:51.

perfect race there. Her British record means she has dipped under 24

:33:52.:33:56.

before and the smiles at the end from her and Jeanette Ottesen. She

:33:57.:34:01.

is a very confident swimmer and that will do her a wonderful world of

:34:02.:34:06.

good. At this level for her to get in a win in the heats will really

:34:07.:34:10.

boost her for this evening and Campbell was a very disappointing

:34:11.:34:21.

3rd. That was the fastest semi. The final heat of the women's 50 metres

:34:22.:34:26.

freestyle and Bronte Campbell, the world champion on this 50 metres

:34:27.:34:33.

freestyle goes in lane 4. Sarah Sjostrom in 5. She has already won

:34:34.:34:38.

gold in the women's 100 metres butterfly and the world record.

:34:39.:34:46.

Silver and bronze on the 100 free. She had a stinker in London but it

:34:47.:34:50.

is good to have her back. I love to watch the faces and see how they are

:34:51.:34:54.

concentrating. It was interesting in the ready room yesterday before the

:34:55.:34:58.

finals, we saw a shot of the corner room and Bronte Campbell and her

:34:59.:35:02.

sister were larking around and having fun. I was thinking they

:35:03.:35:07.

should concentrate. A bit more serious today. It has to be. It was

:35:08.:35:18.

such a huge disappointment. Arianna Vanderpool-Wallace is fast, really

:35:19.:35:21.

strong. A finalist at the London Olympic Games.

:35:22.:35:30.

So, the final heat of the women's 50 metres freestyle with a world

:35:31.:35:34.

champion in 4th, Australia in the yellow hat, is Bronte Campbell and

:35:35.:35:38.

next to her, closer to us in the other yellow hat is Sarah Sjostrom,

:35:39.:35:42.

the world record holder on the 50 metres butterfly. But going well in

:35:43.:35:49.

7 is Dorothea Brandt of Germany. I think Pernille Blume is going to win

:35:50.:35:53.

this, she gets the touch quite comfortably. That is very quick

:35:54.:35:59.

indeed. That must be her lifetime best, I'm sure. She entered with

:36:00.:36:06.

24.4 but went 24.2. A big surprise. Absolutely. She was betting that the

:36:07.:36:09.

World Championships last year and she didn't even race at the

:36:10.:36:13.

Europeans in May so a great surprise, I would suggest, for most

:36:14.:36:18.

of the field here. Bronte Campbell, where did she come in the end? She

:36:19.:36:28.

did well, 2445, I think she was 2nd. Sarah Sjostrom here on the top left

:36:29.:36:32.

of her shot is quite flattered not really rotating and grabbing that

:36:33.:36:36.

extra legs on each arm stroke. I'm surprised with that. It suggests she

:36:37.:36:41.

could swim better, or at least differently on that reach out more.

:36:42.:36:47.

A really nice smile there from Pernille Blume in lane 6.

:36:48.:36:54.

So, the result of the final heat of the women's 50 metres freestyle has

:36:55.:37:01.

Pernille Blume winning it and then Bronte Campbell and Sarah Sjostrom

:37:02.:37:04.

and I think they will make it through. 24.7 is tight but they may

:37:05.:37:09.

just make it. Let us look at the qualifiers. Fran Halsall is 2nd

:37:10.:37:15.

fastest into the semifinals this evening, that is very good indeed

:37:16.:37:20.

from her. Pernille Blume is the surprise fastest qualifier but the

:37:21.:37:23.

big guns are in there with both of the Campbell sisters.

:37:24.:37:33.

Fran, that looked incredible. It has been a long wait and great week to

:37:34.:37:39.

watch. It is day 1 for me, Sharon! I came in a bit later than everyone

:37:40.:37:43.

else so I have only been here for me, Sharon! I came in a bit later

:37:44.:37:46.

than everyone else so I have only been here four days and I haven't

:37:47.:37:49.

had the chance to get stale in the environment or get too excited or

:37:50.:37:53.

happy with how I started. It was my best time this year and I have got

:37:54.:38:00.

relaxed and I will give it more relax -- aggression tonight but I'm

:38:01.:38:04.

happy with that. It is a good start. We were chatting about how much

:38:05.:38:07.

happier you seem in yourself and the opportunity to just concentrate on

:38:08.:38:12.

the 50th made it more fun for you. Yes, I had great preparation this

:38:13.:38:15.

year. I'm standing behind the blocks knowing that I have done everything

:38:16.:38:20.

I can this season. I have been on top of everything injury wise and

:38:21.:38:22.

illness wise and had the best running I could have. It is head

:38:23.:38:26.

Games now because it's the Olympics and if you think about the

:38:27.:38:29.

environment and what it is and get caught up with that it is hard to

:38:30.:38:33.

take. I have raced all these girls before and in this environment

:38:34.:38:36.

before so it should be 2nd nature to me now. You are a serious old hand

:38:37.:38:43.

in the nicest possible way! Cate Campbell, people were expecting to

:38:44.:38:46.

do well last night and it didn't happen so this is the Olympics and a

:38:47.:38:49.

level playing field. Some surprise swims. We didn't expect the Canadian

:38:50.:38:55.

to go so quick. It is, but I know that things like that will happen.

:38:56.:39:01.

You just can't expect -- let it faze you. The virtual meet before the

:39:02.:39:06.

Olympics is just ridiculous, I don't look at anything into that. I need

:39:07.:39:10.

to pick in the summer so whatever happens in season is in season and

:39:11.:39:13.

it is what it is and you don't win medals there. I'm happy with how I'm

:39:14.:39:18.

going and last night was a very interesting race but I do my

:39:19.:39:21.

processes and make sure I'm doing it right and when it comes to tomorrow

:39:22.:39:24.

night I will get my hand on the war 1st. We will see you tonight 1st but

:39:25.:39:28.

I don't think it will be a problem based on that.

:39:29.:39:32.

Well done. It is interesting because we have been talking all week about

:39:33.:39:35.

how the younger members of the team like Chloe Tutton will be buzzing

:39:36.:39:40.

off the team environment at Fran has taken a different approach. How

:39:41.:39:44.

common is that? It is so hard when you are not tapering as well as

:39:45.:39:48.

everyone else because you are a week after everyone else. Adam Peaty 's

:39:49.:39:53.

race was so long ago now and you do get caught up. These are her best

:39:54.:39:57.

mates and people don't appreciate how much emotion it takes out of you

:39:58.:40:01.

just cheering and getting worked up and being disappointed and going on

:40:02.:40:05.

high and you go through all these emotions as a team-mate and as a

:40:06.:40:08.

family member and it is so exhausting so for Fran to take

:40:09.:40:11.

yourself out of that state holding camp with all the other athletes who

:40:12.:40:15.

are still in the same place where she is and I think she made a great

:40:16.:40:32.

decision to that, not just because she swam well but because it is a

:40:33.:40:36.

better environment for Brown. I am really excited for her. It is a good

:40:37.:40:39.

call, historically we would always coming together and I was 1 of those

:40:40.:40:42.

on the last day so I would have to wait while they were doing their bit

:40:43.:40:45.

timepieces. She is 1 of these people who can overthink things but to come

:40:46.:40:48.

in now coaches were decided to do what works for Fran and not just

:40:49.:40:51.

being part of the team. She is part of the team but an individual on

:40:52.:40:53.

that team. There is plenty going on if you want to join us for the

:40:54.:40:57.

swimming later on. We will show you what we can enjoy. Stay up late with

:40:58.:41:01.

us and we have the backstroke final and the men's 100 meter butterfly

:41:02.:41:06.

final and the women's 800, featuring Jazz Carlin at 20 past and Britain's

:41:07.:41:15.

Ben Proud at 245 AM. I know it is very late or early, however you want

:41:16.:41:19.

to look at it but we have been enjoying your hash tags and telling

:41:20.:41:23.

us what you are doing to stay awake. When you listen to have excited Andy

:41:24.:41:26.

Jameson gets, and there's nothing wrong with that, there is no way you

:41:27.:41:31.

are sleeping. Andy, what will it be like in here this evening when we

:41:32.:41:34.

see Michael Phelps? You have commentated on his Gold Medal is,

:41:35.:41:39.

all 22 of them. Does that mean you are presented top Trumps? I don't

:41:40.:41:44.

know. I think I'm the luckiest presenter in the world because the

:41:45.:41:47.

guy is absolutely phenomenal and what we saw last night on the 200

:41:48.:41:51.

medley, you just feel history unfolding as you watch it. Your

:41:52.:41:55.

drawl -- that your jaw drops and you have to try and come up with words

:41:56.:42:00.

to say that it is the 26th Olympic medal that he has got a 22 of them

:42:01.:42:04.

are gold and he is extraordinary. He went into the semifinal of the

:42:05.:42:09.

hundred metres butterfly thought for a 2nd he wouldn't make it. He was

:42:10.:42:15.

way down on the turn but it the class because he can put it out of

:42:16.:42:19.

his mind and do more than enough, he is brilliant. Did you guys have a

:42:20.:42:23.

thesaurus up there because I think you must run out of words to

:42:24.:42:28.

describe Michael Phelps? We have 1 online now. We had to find 1 for

:42:29.:42:33.

tonight. The medley relay is not open, he has the hundred fly tonight

:42:34.:42:37.

and the medley relay tomorrow so he could have the best Olympics is had.

:42:38.:42:42.

His 1st Olympics since Sydney, which was 15 but when he came through into

:42:43.:42:47.

2004 he had 1 of his best Olympics ever and it is his last 4 and he was

:42:48.:42:54.

written off after 2014. After he won the 200 medley was the 1st swimmer

:42:55.:42:59.

to win the same event with 4 gold-medal Singh consecutive

:43:00.:43:07.

Olympics. Iggy does same tonight, at some time, in a funny way, I'm quite

:43:08.:43:11.

looking forward to him stopping because I don't know what else to

:43:12.:43:17.

say about the guy. I think the other swimmers are really looking forward

:43:18.:43:22.

to him stopping! Michael Phelps is going for his 23rd gold this evening

:43:23.:43:26.

by Jazz Carlin is going for her 2nd medal of the meat. Here is a bit

:43:27.:43:33.

more about Jazz Carlin. I'm going there to be on the podium.

:43:34.:43:39.

I am doing everything I can. Jazz Carlin looks great, she's starting

:43:40.:43:44.

to swim away. All these years of training and the hours of the early

:43:45.:43:52.

morning, it is for Rio. I'm going to give it absolutely everything and if

:43:53.:43:55.

that is good enough to be on the podium it will be an incredible

:43:56.:44:02.

feeling. Silver to Jazz Carlin! A wonderful Silver Medal for Great

:44:03.:44:07.

Britain. In 2011I found out I had glandular fever and I was so close

:44:08.:44:11.

to hanging my goggles and costume up but I think that is what sport is

:44:12.:44:15.

like, it tests you and it is about how you overcome the lows to

:44:16.:44:20.

appreciate all the highs and have all the good times throughout sport.

:44:21.:44:24.

Jazz Carlin for Great Britain, Olympic silver, now she is a truly

:44:25.:44:28.

world-class swimmer and the greatest. Sometimes I do take myself

:44:29.:44:32.

too seriously. I can be really hard on myself and that is natural

:44:33.:44:35.

athlete but I think to just appreciate everything, especially

:44:36.:44:40.

this year which has been in the Olympic year, I've been quite

:44:41.:44:43.

stressed and I have put a lot of pressure on myself really. I think

:44:44.:44:47.

it's because I wanted it is so much for so long and once I realised it

:44:48.:44:50.

is just swimming and just sport and something I love to do and since I

:44:51.:44:54.

was a young girl I used to love being in the pool of racing and

:44:55.:44:58.

having fun, so I think I've tried to capture that feeling again and have

:44:59.:45:03.

the enjoyment back into my training. I'm going to make sure I do

:45:04.:45:06.

everything and have no regrets and once I'm on those blocks were given

:45:07.:45:11.

110% in all that I've done I have no regrets and I can walk away from the

:45:12.:45:14.

pool knowing I gave everything in there.

:45:15.:45:19.

I feel a bit sorry for Jazz Carlin and she would get more attention and

:45:20.:45:26.

possibly a gold medal if it wasn't for Katie Ledecky. Katie Ledecky is

:45:27.:45:31.

very special, isn't she? She's like Michael Phelps, they are in the same

:45:32.:45:35.

bracket, with what she has done over the last four years, but the great

:45:36.:45:41.

thing for Jazz Carlin is to stick to her own race plan,, she is at Katie

:45:42.:45:49.

Ledecky's foetal the time of day can be demoralising but Jazz doesn't

:45:50.:45:53.

think like that. You have to let Katie go off, she has the gold and

:45:54.:45:57.

the fighters who will get this silver and bronze on the other

:45:58.:46:01.

medals and Jazz has done that on the 400 this week and I always say 800

:46:02.:46:06.

is Jazz event, she is so much better at the 400 this year, but the 800,

:46:07.:46:13.

she has been an 8.15, she nearly got the British record, so she will

:46:14.:46:16.

possibly break that tonight and I would love to see her do that,

:46:17.:46:20.

especially to rival Katie as well, Katie is so far ahead it would be

:46:21.:46:24.

nice to see the rest of the world catch up with Katie. She has kind of

:46:25.:46:28.

gone and everyone else has stayed behind with what we've been doing

:46:29.:46:31.

for the past ten years. The rest of the world hasn't moved with her and

:46:32.:46:40.

the rest of the girls now need to move that on. Sharon, let's hear

:46:41.:46:43.

from you, you are quite close, there she is going in the 400 earlier this

:46:44.:46:53.

week. What do you make of her form? Jazz's? It's been as good as I have

:46:54.:46:57.

seen, hopefully she can do a personal best, she got a bronze

:46:58.:47:01.

medal at the worlds and hopefully she will get the silver tonight.

:47:02.:47:06.

Sharon, you watch Jazz very closely because you have a strong Bond with

:47:07.:47:10.

her out of the pool. What do you make of her form this week? I do,

:47:11.:47:16.

when she moved from Swansea to Bass, they couldn't rent anything for less

:47:17.:47:21.

than six months and they moved my flat above the garage and were

:47:22.:47:26.

tenants but of mine for a while. She is a compulsive person, a lot of

:47:27.:47:30.

people are in the 8001500 metre environment, think of Paula

:47:31.:47:34.

Radcliffe, almost over trains. Sometimes Jazz can be guilty of

:47:35.:47:38.

that, she is hard on herself. I remember talking to Dave and Dave

:47:39.:47:42.

seeing Tomic make maybe just try to build the confidence and calm her

:47:43.:47:47.

down, tell her she doesn't have to be so tough on herself and that

:47:48.:47:50.

stuff. She spent a lot of coffee mornings with me in the kitchen and

:47:51.:47:54.

I was extremely pleased for her the other day. The confidence she will

:47:55.:47:59.

have got from the 400, she will take into the 800. She already has a

:48:00.:48:04.

medal and everything is a bonus. She believes the 800 is the best event

:48:05.:48:08.

and I know she would like to go for Becky's record. When I spoke to her

:48:09.:48:12.

after her heat, she seemed confident she was swimming within herself. I'm

:48:13.:48:16.

looking forward to it. We are looking forward to it, set your

:48:17.:48:20.

alarm if you want to see how Jazz Carlin gets on. She mentioned the

:48:21.:48:24.

British record there. We always pull your leg about Ben Proud and the

:48:25.:48:28.

British record. What is it like if someone takes your British's -- your

:48:29.:48:35.

British record? Is it bittersweet? Oh, it's amazing, when I see Katie

:48:36.:48:38.

Ledecky break the record it's amazing to see the sport moving on.

:48:39.:48:47.

The British record? For today I can live it out. It's one of those

:48:48.:48:52.

things, as sports fans, we are such big lovers of swimming, we want the

:48:53.:48:56.

sport move on and progress and the facts people are pushing boundaries

:48:57.:48:59.

and getting quicker, I'm pleased for the profile it gives the sport.

:49:00.:49:04.

Tonight the men 's 50 three, the fastest man on the planet in the

:49:05.:49:08.

pool will be crowned. Which way do you see this going, what Ben's

:49:09.:49:13.

chances? If you look at the past form, Mama do was the one who looked

:49:14.:49:18.

incredibly strong, he seems to always deliver at the right time,

:49:19.:49:24.

21.3 last night, Ben is on 21.5, and between second and this is not .8 of

:49:25.:49:32.

the second which is not an awful lot. On a 50 freestyle, it's the

:49:33.:49:37.

person who gets everything right and we saw it last night with Cate

:49:38.:49:41.

Campbell in the 100 freestyle, she is not .2 slower than other people

:49:42.:49:45.

and you can't give that sort of time away so as long as he gets off the

:49:46.:49:51.

lot well and his start is phenomenal, we will see something

:49:52.:49:56.

special tonight, hopefully. Stay up for Ben and Jazz, you have meant

:49:57.:50:03.

Lord Ben and you might have two men talked Ore Oduba because he is going

:50:04.:50:07.

to be on Strictly. You should get yourself in here because the

:50:08.:50:11.

atmosphere when Michael Phelps, was versus audition? A bit more hip

:50:12.:50:20.

action I think, Ore We have a lot of work to do. Clearly! While I've been

:50:21.:50:26.

practising some of the done thing there's been a lot of excitement

:50:27.:50:28.

about one of the broadcasters here at the Olympic Park, not me, one of

:50:29.:50:35.

the main sport TV Brazilian broadcasters has attracted a lot of

:50:36.:50:39.

attention right there. He has even had to... Can you see him? He is

:50:40.:50:47.

over there. Let's go and chase the crowd. We actually had a big BBC

:50:48.:50:51.

training course before this about working in crowds. I think I might

:50:52.:50:55.

be breaking a bit of the rules. In there, in all the hubbub, I haven't

:50:56.:51:00.

got his name but he seems very popular indeed. This is some of the

:51:01.:51:04.

excitement that we get on the Olympic Park. We don't have it too

:51:05.:51:08.

often, actually. Sometimes it's nice to show it, well played, Alan, you

:51:09.:51:12.

got right in the middle of that. Let's go past the crowd because,

:51:13.:51:19.

more self is the park, no problem, no problem, we will go through the

:51:20.:51:22.

park because we are talking tennis next. That is the main Olympic

:51:23.:51:27.

Tennis Centre over there, we have shown you were before. It's the

:51:28.:51:31.

British number one, the team G Flag bearer who is taking to the court

:51:32.:51:36.

right now, three matches, three victories so far, he is in the

:51:37.:51:39.

quarterfinals against America's Steve Johnson, a win he will be in

:51:40.:51:44.

the semis and looking on course to retain his Olympic gold medal,

:51:45.:51:47.

playing either Kei Nishikori Gael Monfils. He has one more sett to

:51:48.:51:52.

winning this match if he is to progress to the next four. He won

:51:53.:51:56.

the first set by 6-0 pretty convincingly so let's see if Andy

:51:57.:52:00.

Murray can wrap this one up in the second that. Do that thing where you

:52:01.:52:03.

push into the court, into number one court.

:52:04.:52:24.

COMMENTATOR: I wonder if Johnson is going to

:52:25.:52:27.

attack a little more. The trouble is that Murray was

:52:28.:52:33.

giving him very little to attack. APPLAUSE

:52:34.:52:56.

Better for second play from the American.

:52:57.:53:22.

Johnson is showing is a little bit more now.

:53:23.:53:24.

APPLAUSE Giving himself a real G up.

:53:25.:53:38.

Difficult second shot for Murray there. Johnson making the move

:53:39.:53:43.

forward. Now ahead on the Murray serve for the first time.

:53:44.:54:43.

Well played will. He had to win that point twice, I thought halfway

:54:44.:54:57.

through the rally a shot to his background could have been out, but

:54:58.:55:01.

he didn't hang around. He has two break points and he has deserved

:55:02.:55:02.

them. CHEERING

:55:03.:55:45.

Well, are there echoes of yesterday? Credit to Johnson. He has had a very

:55:46.:55:51.

difficult time, but he has put it behind him. Much more enterprise

:55:52.:55:58.

about him in that game. A good mixture of forcing play and in the

:55:59.:56:03.

longest rally he defended well as well.

:56:04.:56:34.

Sorry about the language, if you picked that up.

:56:35.:56:51.

Yes, there is a danger of course after the first set you can be

:56:52.:57:09.

lulled into a false selves of security. Even Andy Murray hasn't

:57:10.:57:13.

had too many sets as easy as that and now it is all change. The first

:57:14.:57:20.

ace for Johnson in the match. Got a lot on the club. You wouldn't

:57:21.:57:48.

believe this was a guy who won the first set 6-0 just five minutes ago.

:57:49.:57:56.

CHEERING The good thing for Marie is that if

:57:57.:58:06.

it is going to be like it was yesterday, he did manage to

:58:07.:58:10.

extricate himself from the position -- Murray. It looked horrible at 3-0

:58:11.:58:17.

in the first set, it's not to say he will lose the second set. And with

:58:18.:58:22.

all due respect to Johnson, at his best he's not as good as Fognini

:58:23.:58:31.

Fognini's best. -- he's not as good as Fognini, at Fognini's best.

:58:32.:58:48.

He must have just drawn it long. It looked close. Johnson not having a

:58:49.:59:05.

lot of luck with challenges. APPLAUSE

:59:06.:59:47.

Johnson was rooted to the sport, he didn't have a clue where Murray was

:59:48.:59:56.

going. -- rooted to the spot. It looked more or less the same setup

:59:57.:59:59.

as the previous shot. See how different they were.

:00:00.:00:16.

You could hear it burgle off. A pity, because it would have been an

:00:17.:00:26.

ace -- you could hear the siren, off. -- goal off.

:00:27.:00:43.

Only 136 kilometres, but Harold to its mark. -- it went to its mark.

:00:44.:01:06.

APPLAUSE. So, it looks like he has calmed down a little. Johnson now

:01:07.:01:24.

leading 2-1. Johnson -- Murray in his third

:01:25.:01:39.

Olympics, had a bad experience at the first time he went to the games,

:01:40.:01:44.

he lost in the first round in a sheen. He admitted he was not

:01:45.:01:55.

properly prepared -- Beijing. It was different four years ago, a pivotal

:01:56.:02:01.

tournament, not just winning the Olympic gold medal, beating Novak

:02:02.:02:07.

Djokovic and Rafael Nadal -- Roger Federer. That was the launch pad for

:02:08.:02:13.

fantastic things to come, the US Open in 2012 and then winning

:02:14.:02:17.

Wimbledon following year and then again, just a month or so ago.

:02:18.:02:47.

APPLAUSE. Murray 21 down -- Michael Tu- one. That member he wrote

:02:48.:03:08.

Johnson in the second set -- 2-1. -- but remember, he broke Johnson.

:03:09.:03:46.

Certainly Murray is threatening the game. -- threatening again.

:03:47.:04:02.

UMPIRE: Server, please stand still. -- serve. -- Sir. Tennis is not

:04:03.:04:23.

really in their psyche, some of them do not really know what to do.

:04:24.:04:45.

Well done. He waited until Murray had made his move.

:04:46.:05:40.

Well played. Just thought for a moment that he might go for too

:05:41.:05:50.

much. Keeping it going, prodigious defence. Good work to get around

:05:51.:05:54.

this, then it in the corner. -- pin. A shot that along to the first set,

:05:55.:06:28.

really, from Johnson. -- that belonged.

:06:29.:06:56.

The aces are starting to flow, three now, all in this set.

:06:57.:07:26.

What is going on? Andy is getting it by the people coming in -- distract

:07:27.:07:42.

did. That spectator was in his byline. He is asking him to do

:07:43.:07:50.

something about it. -- byline. He has already had more than one

:07:51.:07:55.

request for people to sit down. It is mainly the stewards allowing

:07:56.:08:07.

people in. Got to forget it. It is probably not going to stop.

:08:08.:08:21.

Johnson wants to try and keep some pressure on Murray. He is really

:08:22.:09:24.

struggling. Distractions and here's irritated with himself for getting

:09:25.:09:27.

into this situation on the second set -- he is irritated with himself.

:09:28.:09:46.

Such a good shot from Andy Murray. It was a really ace and return from

:09:47.:10:01.

the American. -- it was a really decent return. Johnson did not

:10:02.:10:10.

really have a prayer on that move forward. It would have been close,

:10:11.:10:19.

but he will not challenge. What would he get if he did challenge?

:10:20.:10:32.

Johnson holes, it is 3-2. There is a dramatic turnaround in the women's

:10:33.:10:39.

semifinal. Give it over has come roaring back. -- Kvitova.

:10:40.:11:02.

Murray had to draw on all his experience to get it done in his

:11:03.:11:10.

last match and he needs to use his experience now to work out that the

:11:11.:11:14.

distractions are not going to finish. Just get on with the job in

:11:15.:11:20.

hand that Johnson did so well after the end of the first set. Turning

:11:21.:11:29.

into a fine day now, torrential rain this morning which was why the match

:11:30.:11:34.

was put back I around half an hour full is stop one break in the second

:11:35.:11:43.

set divides them -- which was why the match was put back by around

:11:44.:11:46.

half an hour. It seemed to rather collapse is on

:11:47.:12:12.

that. -- Clark 's on that. That is wonderful. It looked for all

:12:13.:13:14.

the world like it was going out. Johnson certainly thought so. Did

:13:15.:13:20.

not move a muscle towards it. Still distracted by the movement in

:13:21.:13:47.

the crowd, going for the towel again. Super play, how quickly he

:13:48.:13:56.

was in possession and now he has the chance to turn it around. Bit of

:13:57.:14:08.

juddering probably caused the pain in Johnson's arm. He was really

:14:09.:14:13.

hurting there. Awkward shot and here is an awkward moment, break back

:14:14.:14:17.

point for Murray. Plenty of sides then, but Murray

:14:18.:15:03.

would normally back himself to make that.

:15:04.:15:32.

After the first set, things in Murray's mind seemed to be

:15:33.:15:43.

conspiring against him. 4.4 for- two for the American. A point for 4-2

:15:44.:15:54.

for the American. Maybe he is still struggling with

:15:55.:16:07.

that elbow. Neither player has had much luck

:16:08.:16:49.

with challenges, particularly Johnson.

:16:50.:17:20.

Well, Steve Johnson may only have been to the last 16 of a grand slam

:17:21.:17:25.

once before, but he is proving a frustration for Andy Murray. He went

:17:26.:17:30.

on to win the second set 6-4 and level the match. If you want to see

:17:31.:17:36.

how Andy Murray does on a number one court then BBC One is the place to

:17:37.:17:40.

go to see if Andy Murray can make his way into the semifinals of the

:17:41.:17:46.

men's singles tennis. We are hoping to another -- hopping to another

:17:47.:17:55.

racquet sport. Badminton. Great Britain have another pair in the

:17:56.:18:00.

men's doubles. How can Marcus Ellis and Chris Langridge do in their

:18:01.:18:07.

group C clash? They are taking on the Korean third seeds after having

:18:08.:18:10.

lost in the first match against the 2012 runners-up of Denmark. They are

:18:11.:18:21.

taking on the two Kims. They have hopes of reaching the quarterfinals.

:18:22.:18:25.

Let's see how the British pair get on against Kim and Kim.

:18:26.:19:27.

Sparkling start from Ellis and language. They will be delighted

:19:28.:19:34.

with this. It has been down to if you forced errors from the Koreans.

:19:35.:19:47.

Both five foot ten tall, Kim Sa-rang is just a year older than Kim

:19:48.:19:58.

Gi-jung. He resides in Seoul himself.

:19:59.:20:09.

They are almost sort of gung ho in the way they play. Very dynamic and

:20:10.:20:18.

fearless. Ranked third in the world. They won the Malaysians opened this

:20:19.:20:26.

year. Also runners-up in the Thailand Masters. They won the China

:20:27.:20:32.

open at the end of 2015 and the Korean Masters as well, so a great

:20:33.:20:40.

year. Round 16 of the World Championships in Jakarta last year,

:20:41.:20:48.

where this team went around further. They beat them in that tournament.

:20:49.:20:55.

Today, these two men in red from Great Britain will be looking to

:20:56.:21:01.

repeat that feat. But it is not an easy task.

:21:02.:21:11.

Anxious start from the Koreans. Possibly hampered by that previous

:21:12.:21:16.

head-to-head loss. It is a 4-point game, this one. Lots

:21:17.:22:09.

of head scratching going on between the Koreans at the moment, yet to

:22:10.:22:15.

settle. They want to be pushing the panic button quite yet. -- they will

:22:16.:22:22.

not be pushing the panic button quite yet.

:22:23.:22:47.

Thunderous from Langridge. Ever alert. Played such a good match last

:22:48.:22:57.

night and it was a shame they had to lose out to the experience of the

:22:58.:23:04.

lefty righty combination of Bolan Mortensen.

:23:05.:23:18.

The Koreans yet to concede a game. They won their opener against the

:23:19.:23:29.

Polish pair. Straight games, 21-14 and 21-15. Just over half an hour

:23:30.:23:32.

played. It was an emphatic performance. Langridge and Ellis are

:23:33.:23:37.

a different opposition altogether. A beautiful slice from Marcus Ellis.

:23:38.:23:55.

He is delighted with that. Tight to the net as it dropped, laden with

:23:56.:24:01.

spin. Two points away from the opening game and it is a really

:24:02.:24:05.

strong start. Look at the disparity in the scoreline here, seven points

:24:06.:24:11.

adrift, the Koreans, the senior seeds. The only seats in the group.

:24:12.:24:14.

Group C, very strong. -- seeds. Born in Epsom, resides in Milton

:24:15.:24:36.

Keynes. Well, Kim Sa-rang is normally very

:24:37.:25:09.

good with the forecourt touch. Some wonderful tight net shops. But

:25:10.:25:18.

today, the radar is off the moment. Seven points to take themselves to

:25:19.:25:23.

the mid-game interval with a very strong footing for the British team.

:25:24.:26:09.

Britain's on the attack. Denied fair, superb reflexes from Kim

:26:10.:26:25.

Gi-jung. -- denied there. Very alert. A flick of the wrist

:26:26.:26:29.

manufactured something brilliant. Chris Langridge holding a finger up,

:26:30.:27:01.

he wants a challenge. It was very close. Just wide, I would say. We

:27:02.:27:07.

are going upstairs for the electronic review. What does it

:27:08.:27:15.

conclude? Always takes a little while. The suspense is overwhelming.

:27:16.:27:26.

China won all five golds on offer in the Olympics of London 2012. That

:27:27.:27:39.

was well wide here. One of the fastest and most demanding physical

:27:40.:27:44.

sports on the Olympic programme. Lunging, thrusting, darting in

:27:45.:27:48.

pursuit of the shuttlecock. Sometimes faster than a Formula 1

:27:49.:27:55.

car. Requires supreme athleticism and lightning fast reactions.

:27:56.:28:05.

I think in his mind, in his line of vision, he saw the Koreans closing

:28:06.:28:14.

the net down pretty quickly, so Marcus Ellis just playing a bit too

:28:15.:28:20.

tight to the net with that tight net shops. Reducing the deficit now, the

:28:21.:28:25.

Koreans. A different feel about it. The national coach coming on and

:28:26.:29:40.

insisting it is all about variety, changing the attack lines and if you

:29:41.:29:44.

are going to go big, go wide with it. They are in the driving seat of

:29:45.:29:51.

this opening game, the British pair. Leading 11-7.

:29:52.:30:18.

The lead is being nibbled at somewhat by the parent who have had

:30:19.:30:27.

a decent run of consecutive points. -- by the pair. A 3-point game.

:30:28.:30:51.

The momentum has shifted now. The British players were in complete

:30:52.:30:59.

control prior to the mid-game interval but now the lead is

:31:00.:31:04.

dissipating slowly and it is a two point game.

:31:05.:31:26.

They can ill afford service faults like that. So, can Kim Sa-rang com

:31:27.:31:42.

copped some magic here? -- come up with some magic here. That was a

:31:43.:31:49.

heavy smash and Kim Gi-jung... Both teams playing with good with,

:31:50.:32:30.

disposing of the movement nicely. In the end, it is Kim Gi-jung and Kim

:32:31.:32:38.

Sa-rang coming out on top, they seem to have the momentum, that little

:32:39.:32:45.

bit more alert. They seem to be on top of the situation but not quite

:32:46.:32:48.

the scoreline yet, trailing another point, they are 11-12 now.

:32:49.:33:09.

That is gorgeous, this slice from Marcus Ellis was brilliant.

:33:10.:33:32.

Both teams have manufactured consecutive points runs of three,

:33:33.:33:38.

but only one of them each. Fast, furious doubles, that is what

:33:39.:33:57.

it is all about. Flat hard blocks and drives to get on the attack

:33:58.:34:04.

first, either team, neither want to give away the lift opportunity

:34:05.:34:09.

because all of them are adept at smashing with pace.

:34:10.:34:35.

Thunderous finish in the end from the Koreans, although for the

:34:36.:34:42.

British duo, Chris Langridge was down for a while, because he thought

:34:43.:34:48.

the point was over. He was skidding for a while and came to a halt and

:34:49.:34:53.

realised the point was going on and managed to resume, but to no avail

:34:54.:34:58.

in the end. A brilliant point to watch.

:34:59.:35:13.

Nothing between them now in this opener, they are mopping up the

:35:14.:35:26.

sweat from the floor. These men are desperate to sustain the momentum

:35:27.:35:27.

that they have developed of late. You would imagine, for these guys,

:35:28.:35:40.

having lost their match last night to the pair from Denmark, this

:35:41.:35:46.

opening game against the decorated third seeds is a critical one.

:35:47.:35:58.

There is more of an upbeat feel to Kim Gi-jung and Kim Sa-rang now.

:35:59.:36:31.

Well played, power play from Kim Sa-rang down that final smash. They

:36:32.:36:41.

are on the front foot a lot more often now, the men in black and

:36:42.:36:52.

pink. If keeping with their seeding status, three out here in this

:36:53.:37:02.

tournament. The umpire suggesting, come on guys, get on with it.

:37:03.:37:11.

They have responded magnificently by rattling off multiple points of

:37:12.:37:15.

late, the Koreans. Desperately keen to close that down

:37:16.:37:34.

and he gets the lucky net cord. It is a game in favour of the Koreans,

:37:35.:37:38.

who would have thought that? So tough to get the Koreans to play

:37:39.:38:08.

back cans, they are so adept at running around and clobbering

:38:09.:38:10.

forehand smashes -- backhand. Chris Langridge is the elder player

:38:11.:38:28.

on the team. Five years older than Marcus Ellis. Barking out the

:38:29.:38:32.

orders. Men's Doubles at its best. Great

:38:33.:39:12.

point from both teams. So keenly contested. The intensity here is the

:39:13.:39:18.

lights out. A thunderous finish from Kim Sa-rang who came to the party

:39:19.:39:24.

little late, he had a very slow start -- slow start. Now he is

:39:25.:39:28.

coming alongside and what a spectacle this is.

:39:29.:39:48.

You can see why they suggested varying up the attacks, because the

:39:49.:39:59.

Koreans with lightning intensity are very quick. It is about changing

:40:00.:40:11.

that up. Changing the line of the attack positionally.

:40:12.:40:22.

A telling return from Kim Sa-rang, very quick to redirect. It is a one

:40:23.:40:29.

point game. Frontcourt player, Kim Sa-rang, look

:40:30.:41:06.

at him, he is so tough to get past. His reflexes are so good. He has

:41:07.:41:17.

controlled the frontcourt really well, Kim Sa-rang.

:41:18.:41:32.

They have changed their game style quite dramatically for the first

:41:33.:41:39.

quarter of this game, if you will. Playing faster and better, the

:41:40.:41:44.

Koreans, they are a tough proposition, in contrast from the

:41:45.:41:51.

very start. It is a 3-point game and more importantly, Kim Gi-jung with

:41:52.:41:52.

the serve. It is a slow and deliberate walk

:41:53.:42:20.

over to the service judge for another shuttle. One in which they

:42:21.:42:24.

have really lost their way but they have not done an awful lot wrong,

:42:25.:42:29.

they had just been flat beaten in this opening game by the third seeds

:42:30.:42:34.

who have really turned it on after the mid-game interval like nothing

:42:35.:42:36.

else. Not done yet, this opener, they will

:42:37.:42:51.

be fighting with all their might to turn it around.

:42:52.:43:15.

That is cruel, Lady luck favouring the Koreans, but you have to be fair

:43:16.:43:25.

to them, they worked extremely hard to turn that game around. In the

:43:26.:43:40.

end, they got the last laugh. 21-17. First blood to the Korean pair, we

:43:41.:43:44.

will be back in a moment for the rest of it. No, let us stick with

:43:45.:43:52.

it. Up they went, the Koreans in the first set and we will join it in the

:43:53.:43:57.

second, with Great Britain leading and serving by 16 points to 15. As

:43:58.:44:07.

they showed us in the opening game, they can't soon swept the -- flick

:44:08.:44:11.

the switch back on. Ever dangerous. Even that one went the way of the

:44:12.:44:34.

British duo, to their delight. Take that shot, tumbling on the wrong

:44:35.:44:36.

side for Kim Sa-rang. A rough passage of play for these

:44:37.:44:48.

two them, trailing two points in the second game. This game can change in

:44:49.:44:56.

a heartbeat, we have seen it so often.

:44:57.:45:30.

How often you see in matches like these were the smallest of margins

:45:31.:45:35.

as the largest of consequences. Terrific point, spreading the play

:45:36.:46:06.

well. Very alert. Turning defence into attack immaculately. It is a

:46:07.:46:11.

two point lead for Ellis and Langridge now.

:46:12.:46:28.

He's braced and poised with energy. Nervous, ritualistic twitches.

:46:29.:46:38.

Just got behind him a little vert, Kim Sa-rang ever so quick around the

:46:39.:46:45.

net. We have seen that on multiple occasions. Have they got more in the

:46:46.:46:51.

tank as we had towards the climax of this second game?

:46:52.:47:06.

Getting the shuttlecock down and your opponents down, all about the

:47:07.:47:11.

aggression in the front court. Putting some scoreboard pressure on

:47:12.:47:35.

the Koreans. Taking their time. Making it compound in these guys'

:47:36.:47:40.

mind. Still two points adrift in the second game. Can Ellis and Langridge

:47:41.:47:46.

consolidate? It's a one point game. We know what

:47:47.:47:55.

these two are capable of. Super return from Marcus Ellis that

:47:56.:48:50.

really set the point up beautifully, and now they have engineered a

:48:51.:48:56.

couple of game point opportunities, Ellis and Langridge, to detain the

:48:57.:49:00.

third seeds and take this match to a deciding game.

:49:01.:49:06.

They need a win here, the British, two seriously contest this tough

:49:07.:49:12.

group C. One game point saved with some

:49:13.:49:29.

courageous play from the Kims. Insistent. Kim Gi-jung hammering his

:49:30.:50:17.

way through. It is a 2-point game locked in at 20 points apiece. So

:50:18.:50:26.

close. A couple of game point opportunities at 20-18. Beg your

:50:27.:50:30.

pardon, 19-17. Again, age of the return from Marcus

:50:31.:50:56.

Ellis, who is quick to pounce, and Langridge sticking the knife in

:50:57.:51:00.

there. Another game point opportunity for Ellis and Langridge

:51:01.:51:01.

here. Don't they play the big points ever

:51:02.:51:47.

so well, the Koreans? Quite a skill they have. Cometh the hour,, the

:51:48.:51:55.

Koreans. They really have competed incredibly well, as, of course, have

:51:56.:51:57.

the British. It is quite something, their

:51:58.:52:16.

resilience, these two. Sorry, I shouldn't have gone for a drink

:52:17.:52:19.

then, I was just being a little cheeky. 21-21. Two Clear points to

:52:20.:52:27.

decide it. Marcus Ellis bullies his way through

:52:28.:52:44.

that point to give him the fourth game point opportunity. The Koreans

:52:45.:52:52.

looking a little bit baffled. Lucky there, Langridge. Stumbled, did Kim

:52:53.:52:59.

Sa-rang. He's OK. Brilliance again from Kim Gi-jung.

:53:00.:53:38.

My goodness. They are just like Houdini in their escapology here.

:53:39.:53:40.

Quite incredible. Oh, he's powered his way through

:53:41.:54:21.

down the line again. Brilliance from Marcus Ellis there, who was the real

:54:22.:54:25.

workhorse in that rally. Langridge barking out instruction. Look at

:54:26.:54:32.

that finish, so brave, just piercing the inside of the line. He's been a

:54:33.:54:38.

real powerhouse, has Marcus Ellis. Oh, too quick from Kim Sa-rang. I

:54:39.:55:15.

thought their Chris Langridge had played a brilliant shot, but this

:55:16.:55:21.

man is just so lightning fast around the net. Five Gamer points have come

:55:22.:55:33.

and gone. -- Gamer points. They have been denied.

:55:34.:56:03.

The Koreans playing catch up throughout the back end of this one.

:56:04.:56:19.

They have done so commendably, showing real character.

:56:20.:56:26.

It was in. Bit of a contrast in body language. Game points number six,

:56:27.:56:36.

then. It is on the server Marcus Ellis now. Can he do something quite

:56:37.:56:38.

special here? A roar of delight from Marcus Ellis.

:56:39.:57:11.

Hop, skip and a jump back to his bike and he is round that net in a

:57:12.:57:20.

flash. Just to keep you up-to-date, we are

:57:21.:57:25.
