:00:56. > :01:02.In seven days of the Rio Olympics for Great Britain with gold medals

:01:03. > :01:10.on the water in the rowing. The ruins pair have retained their medal

:01:11. > :01:15.from London 2012. And so have the men's four, 50 gold-medal in a row

:01:16. > :01:19.all the way back from Sydney to Rio. That is succession planning. And we

:01:20. > :01:24.will stay with the water. Get an update from Shirley Robinson, wide

:01:25. > :01:33.on the Atlantic. That is quite a swell. This is beyond bobbing about

:01:34. > :01:38.on the sea, we are at the entrance to the Atlantic, you can see how

:01:39. > :01:42.massive it is, all the live coverage of the racing takes place inside the

:01:43. > :01:47.bay, which is relatively calm, but lots of the sailing is happening in

:01:48. > :01:55.the ocean and we will go out there today. Capture some of that for you.

:01:56. > :01:59.Tim is doing a fantastic job on camera today, I can tell you that.

:02:00. > :02:03.If you can get yourself steady tell us about Nick Dempsey in the Laser

:02:04. > :02:09.because it is looking very good for the world champion? Yesterday he had

:02:10. > :02:14.a pretty good day, but so did the 2012 gold medallists from the

:02:15. > :02:19.Netherlands, Dorian van Rijsselberghe, leading the men's

:02:20. > :02:23.windsurfers. But it is close. Today is the final day of fleet racing

:02:24. > :02:27.before the medal race on Sunday so it is a bit make or break, he must

:02:28. > :02:31.make a move and keep the battle going. I have a good feeling it will

:02:32. > :02:36.be a great medal race between them and go right down to the wire. It is

:02:37. > :02:42.Nick Dempsey and speaking about the windsurfer. The medal races on

:02:43. > :02:49.Sunday. And it is double point in effect in the middle races. How much

:02:50. > :02:54.could change? -- medal races. The medal races are based, you cannot

:02:55. > :02:59.describe the result, it is all on, double points. I've been so

:03:00. > :03:03.impressed by Nick Dempsey, is fifth Olympic Games, silver from and

:03:04. > :03:08.bronze from Athens. He is calm and confident and making the right

:03:09. > :03:12.decisions. It has those lovely aura around him and I have really good

:03:13. > :03:18.hopes that he will do well. Looking forward to watching him race out in

:03:19. > :03:23.the massive Atlantic swell today. Yes, we have Saxton Grove there and

:03:24. > :03:29.good chances, they are not racing today. They have a day off, as to

:03:30. > :03:32.Giles Scott and they are both currently leading their classes but

:03:33. > :03:37.it has been lovely to watch the youngsters, it is a brand-new --

:03:38. > :03:41.brand-new mixed multihull for this gained and they were young, so

:03:42. > :03:45.excited and India's Bastick to be part of Team GB and they've come out

:03:46. > :03:50.all singing all dancing and performed from the get go. Once you

:03:51. > :03:55.get a bit of momentum, we see it in every sport,, well, look good and

:03:56. > :04:01.get confidence, you just grow and grow and it is early days for them,

:04:02. > :04:05.but an amazing start. Generally want ask your opinion on the performance

:04:06. > :04:10.of Glover and Heather Steacy, they've joined you as a double gold

:04:11. > :04:13.medallist and Kay -- Kelly Holmes and Becky Adlington and Vicky

:04:14. > :04:18.Pendleton and Charlotte Dujardin and trot and all of this has happened

:04:19. > :04:24.since you started this gold rush in 2000 with the gold in 2000, 2000

:04:25. > :04:29.four. What incredible strides for British women's sport in only 16

:04:30. > :04:37.years. Only the best of the best and get back-to-back gold. It was a turn

:04:38. > :04:41.of an era, we got back to Sydney, British sport had an injection of

:04:42. > :04:45.cash and we are still reaping the rewards of that. We got used to

:04:46. > :04:50.winning, we expect to win and we expect to win again and again and

:04:51. > :04:53.it's been amazing 16 years in British sport, it is incredible. I

:04:54. > :04:57.don't want to have to break this gently but Charlotte Dujardin and

:04:58. > :05:04.Laura Trott Cancer pass your efforts potentially today, but you've had a

:05:05. > :05:07.pretty decent run at it. I'm happy, it is extreme broadcasting now,

:05:08. > :05:14.maybe I will get a gold medal in this. I will head out here. And the

:05:15. > :05:20.gold medal goes to... Thank you. Stay safe please! It is relatively

:05:21. > :05:27.much more calm in the badminton arena and we will meet Mr and Mrs

:05:28. > :05:32.Adcock. The only husband and wife team for Great Britain in the Rio

:05:33. > :05:39.Olympics, they are taking part in the mixed doubles in badminton. It

:05:40. > :05:44.was Enzo Robertson, 2004, that took the silver medal and had as excited

:05:45. > :05:48.in Athens in the final of that event and the way it works here in Rio is

:05:49. > :05:54.there is group games first and the top two in each group go through.

:05:55. > :05:58.The British pair have got it's tough, their head coach said it was

:05:59. > :06:04.a killer group and it certainly looks like it, the most difficult of

:06:05. > :06:08.the four. They are against a very good Danish pair, let's see how the

:06:09. > :06:15.earlier this week how they did earlier. It is so nip and tuck the

:06:16. > :06:19.entire way, over the last two games both teams have only managed runs of

:06:20. > :06:32.two. That is all in terms of consecutive points. Spills wide,

:06:33. > :06:40.Christinna Pedersen, another roar of delight from the British. It is a

:06:41. > :06:46.3-point game. These two are fully aware it is retrievable. You would

:06:47. > :07:00.imagine they would have to start to do it about now.

:07:01. > :07:10.Brilliant from Chris Adcock, so quick to pounce. They are just

:07:11. > :07:19.absolutely filly dialled in on this one now. Gaby beside him coiled,

:07:20. > :07:20.knees bent with energy. So they can pounce whichever way they need. It

:07:21. > :07:38.is a 4-point game. The pressing from Christinna

:07:39. > :07:55.Pedersen -- depressing. Now, is this an opportunity for a

:07:56. > :08:01.sneaky flick saw? Or is he going with something more regular? Nielsen

:08:02. > :08:11.likes to pounce on the short, low delivery.

:08:12. > :08:27.It is run four consecutive points for the Adcock pairing. An anxious

:08:28. > :08:38.look from Christinna Pedersen to her strong left-handed partner. Extend

:08:39. > :08:42.their lead. He is ever dangerous, but respectful, which is nice to

:08:43. > :08:48.see. It is a match played in great spirit. Which is what the Olympic

:08:49. > :09:10.Games is all about. Bringing together different races, cultures.

:09:11. > :09:21.The Brits were 11 up at the interval and having come from there, haven't

:09:22. > :09:27.they consolidated with effect? Still a long way to go in this one though.

:09:28. > :09:44.But they really have put their front foot forward of late. -- 11-8 up.

:09:45. > :09:49.The Danes have been committing too many errors too often in this game.

:09:50. > :09:52.The fourth seeds are under a lot of pressure now because the Adcock

:09:53. > :09:57.pairing are just three points away from the W. They were denied

:09:58. > :10:04.yesterday having had match point, they couldn't quite cross the

:10:05. > :10:25.Chinese duo. Now in a commanding position.

:10:26. > :10:35.Good energy between them. Great dynamics. Ever positive, it is about

:10:36. > :10:40.heading to the sun metaphorically speaking the entire time, not

:10:41. > :10:48.allowing native thoughts into your mind. -- negative.

:10:49. > :10:53.The Danes got lucky, is that enough to inspire them to pull this one

:10:54. > :11:14.back level and beyond? Alarmingly for British fans, that is

:11:15. > :12:00.three points in a row for the black. We knew the fightback would always

:12:01. > :12:07.be on, she's always more difficult to hit winners when you're in front.

:12:08. > :12:10.-- it is always. The psychological dynamics reversed strangely as you

:12:11. > :12:13.sense the finish line is so close. Of course for fresh in their mind is

:12:14. > :12:32.the exploit yesterday of the Chinese wriggling out of jail.

:12:33. > :12:41.Chris sneezed so the point will be replayed. Umpire could not accept

:12:42. > :12:54.that one. Interesting, thought they had lost the point for a second.

:12:55. > :13:04.They stopped the run of points for the Danes at three. Now, can they

:13:05. > :13:10.build from here? Two points away from the win. Communication is

:13:11. > :13:29.priority number one, clarity. They just managed to lift above

:13:30. > :13:37.Christina for the first left but the second just going to the big, tall

:13:38. > :13:45.menace who had his way. It is still a 3-point game. But the Danes have

:13:46. > :13:51.been ever threatening. They managed to twist the second game in their

:13:52. > :14:01.way, 24-22. What can the master here? -- muster.

:14:02. > :14:51.Brilliant. A cry of out from Chris Adcock brings up four match points.

:14:52. > :14:58.Well, they've still got room for manoeuvre.

:14:59. > :15:20.But before that, they must put this match to bed. The fourth seeds.

:15:21. > :15:32.Look what it means to them! Momentous win in this daunting

:15:33. > :15:38.group. Group B, so Blaydon, with four top 15 teams. The Adcocks did

:15:39. > :15:42.something they couldn't do yesterday, they lost out on match

:15:43. > :15:48.point but they have come through today against the fourth seeds.

:15:49. > :15:52.That's a great win and the Adcocks will play the Polish pair tomorrow,

:15:53. > :15:56.they must win it to make sure of going through to the knockout

:15:57. > :16:02.stages. The group is very tight, some of the permutations going

:16:03. > :16:08.around. I'm hearing that Andy Murray has it all to do in his quarterfinal

:16:09. > :16:13.at the Tennis Centre. He struggled a bit against Fabio Fognini of Italy.

:16:14. > :16:17.This is Steve Johnson, the American, big and tall with a huge verve and

:16:18. > :16:23.it has gone to a third set again. Being asked a lot of questions as he

:16:24. > :16:31.does to defend his title -- huge serve. It has been tough for Andy

:16:32. > :16:40.Murray. The first set was one of the easiest he's had this year, 6-0, but

:16:41. > :16:43.the American has battled back and Andy is getting a bit distracted and

:16:44. > :16:49.this has turned into a bit of a dogfight. Two tough guys going

:16:50. > :16:59.head-to-head. No break so far in the third debt. -- set.

:17:00. > :17:07.So, Murray holding and he leads 3-2 in the third set. Two big moments in

:17:08. > :17:14.the match, the first was in the third game when Murray had a serve

:17:15. > :17:19.which looked like it was an ace, Johnson didn't agree, he called for

:17:20. > :17:23.Hawk-Eye and it ruled in married's favour and Johnson went berserk,

:17:24. > :17:28.saying we should get it stopped because it isn't doing its job, get

:17:29. > :17:34.it switched off -- Murray's favour. It wasn't going to take him far, it

:17:35. > :17:39.took him out of his comfort zone, and Andy Murray took the first 6-0.

:17:40. > :17:44.Apart from that, the main distraction has been for Murray, a

:17:45. > :17:49.lot of people coming in when they shouldn't have been. Tennis, it

:17:50. > :17:53.isn't upfront and central in Brazil, many don't know the tennis etiquette

:17:54. > :17:56.and people are coming in at strange times, the stewards have been

:17:57. > :18:03.letting them in and Murray has been distracted. Johnson has been playing

:18:04. > :18:09.better, breaking in the second set and he took it 6-4. Here we are in

:18:10. > :18:14.the third set. Johnson has only ever once beaten a top ten player,

:18:15. > :18:18.Richard Gasquet at Queen's a couple of months ago, so he has a record of

:18:19. > :18:24.losing this kind of match, but we will see. Murray has a record of

:18:25. > :18:27.winning this kind of match. Even yesterday when he looked in all

:18:28. > :18:38.sorts of trouble against Fabio Fognini. Johnson hasn't got the

:18:39. > :18:40.brilliance of Fognini but he is very steady and Murray needs to be at his

:18:41. > :19:00.best. Johnson has served a lot better.

:19:01. > :19:18.Murray's returns, not at the level he would like.

:19:19. > :19:25.Mr Johnson is challenging the call. It's interesting, Johnson, I

:19:26. > :19:30.mentioned the problems he had in the first set with Hawk-Eye. He only has

:19:31. > :19:34.one challenge left and if he loses this one he is out of challenges, so

:19:35. > :19:35.he'll have no more problems with Hawk-Eye because it won't be there

:19:36. > :20:04.for him. But he's got it right. And then the double. Second double

:20:05. > :21:16.of the match for the American. His trademark shot hasn't been going

:21:17. > :21:23.for him. A good return that time. Really was in situ to hit that

:21:24. > :21:48.double hander straight across. Chance for 3-3 now.

:21:49. > :21:56.Murray not doing a lot, waiting for Johnson to make a mistake and he

:21:57. > :22:48.duly obliged. That's a really good volley at a

:22:49. > :22:58.clutch moment. No wonder he clinches his fist, that was superb. Not

:22:59. > :23:04.getting it down as low as he'd want. Johnson couldn't get to it. --

:23:05. > :23:26.Murray couldn't. Nothing's coming easy for Murray at

:23:27. > :24:13.the moment. Oh, brilliant. He's not backing off

:24:14. > :24:17.one iota. That's to his credit because that's been the question

:24:18. > :24:37.about Johnson, can he hack it with the very big boys?

:24:38. > :24:50.Oh, yes. Huge credit to Johnson and the end of that game. For those of

:24:51. > :24:53.you who don't know much about him, you might have seen a lot of him at

:24:54. > :24:56.Wimbledon where he won the Nottingham tournament, went to

:24:57. > :25:02.Wimbledon and got to the fourth round, beating Jeremy Chardy, Grigor

:25:03. > :25:08.Dimitrov and lost against Federer. He also got the Greens, the

:25:09. > :25:15.quarterfinal, where Richard Gasquet was beaten -- Queen's. He lost

:25:16. > :25:26.against Marin Cilic. The umpire, once again, saying to the spectators

:25:27. > :25:29.to be still. Having a word with the stewards, not that they may

:25:30. > :25:33.understand him. I'm afraid the job wasn't done well enough with the

:25:34. > :25:34.stewards, which is why the spectators have been let in at

:25:35. > :25:54.difficult moments. It's been a terrific summer for

:25:55. > :26:03.Johnson, he is ranked 22 now, just one spot below his best, which was

:26:04. > :26:07.just after Wimbledon. It's been a terrific year after a fantastic

:26:08. > :26:20.college career. At one stage he won 72 successive matches.

:26:21. > :26:32.Johnson generally regarded as the finest ever college player in the

:26:33. > :26:36.United States. On the NCAA, the big competition for the collegiate

:26:37. > :26:53.players. Winning two successive times.

:26:54. > :27:14.Oh, yes. It's all coming up roses at the moment for Johnson. As good a

:27:15. > :27:41.return as he's made in the match. Pressure on Murray now.

:27:42. > :28:04.Just a bit tame with the volley. The second serve was terrific.

:28:05. > :28:32.Sit down, please, thank you. The problem isn't going away.

:28:33. > :28:45.So, here is break point for the first break in the third set. Murray

:28:46. > :28:49.broken just once, in the opening game of the second set. A chance for

:28:50. > :29:01.Johnson to strike again. Yes. Magnificent couple of Games,

:29:02. > :29:23.for Steve Johnson. We mentioned yesterday when it was

:29:24. > :29:27.all going pear shaped for Andy Murray against Fabio Fognini, the

:29:28. > :29:33.Italian won eight Games in a row to go 3-0 up in the third set and we

:29:34. > :29:36.were saying that Murray had to draw on his experience and know-how and

:29:37. > :29:40.knowledge from these kind of situations in big matches to pull

:29:41. > :29:47.through and this is the case now. He's under the cosh. So often in his

:29:48. > :29:54.career, this kind of situation has brought the best out of Murray. He

:29:55. > :30:00.loves his boxing and he's like a boxer, trapped on the ropes, how to

:30:01. > :30:06.retaliate here. Against a guy who has a history of being weak in this

:30:07. > :30:41.kind of situation. There's been no sign of it here this afternoon.

:30:42. > :30:56.The reference -- the umpire doing what he can. A lot of people coming

:30:57. > :31:00.here to see the scoring. Bellucci and Nadal on the other court, Balaji

:31:01. > :31:15.is the number-1 Brazilian, they want to see a of this.

:31:16. > :31:47.Does this look like a man who is scared of winning?

:31:48. > :32:36.He knows he has to put the pressure on more effectively than that.

:32:37. > :33:18.Super point. He wasn't far away. Johnson is so quickly up to that.

:33:19. > :33:59.Well played, Murray. A little guilty of not getting back to it. The

:34:00. > :34:00.support team on their feet come here is the chance for Murray to break

:34:01. > :34:10.back. That is a great forehand from

:34:11. > :34:46.Murray. Wouldn't you know it? Suddenly he found nearly his best

:34:47. > :34:58.form. At just the right moment, that will really hurt Steve Johnson.

:34:59. > :35:04.Suddenly we can here the Brits in the house. It looks so easy in the

:35:05. > :35:15.opening set. So many similarities. To the match

:35:16. > :35:31.against Fognini yesterday come he survived that, can he survive this?

:35:32. > :36:30.Didn't get the forehand right at all. It is a big day for Johnson on

:36:31. > :36:34.this court. In a couple of hours he will be with Jack Sock in the bronze

:36:35. > :36:44.medal match in the doubles against Leicester and passed of Canada. --

:36:45. > :37:01.Nestor ante-post this ill -- possible sale.

:37:02. > :37:29.He cannot believe that shop. The second one in this game.

:37:30. > :38:15.Please stand still behind the court. Thank you.

:38:16. > :38:22.Very stiff on that one. Here is break point for the third successive

:38:23. > :39:24.break of serve. Good working over for John. Nothing

:39:25. > :40:09.too extravagant. -- Johnson. Murray challenges the call on the

:40:10. > :40:12.right service line. A couple of challenges left. Very quickly into

:40:13. > :40:45.this and very wrong. Just climbed enough. Body serve to

:40:46. > :40:49.perfection. Second serves by and large have been a subject of much

:40:50. > :41:28.debate with Murray, they've held him in good stead here.

:41:29. > :41:40.Murray clutching the left side. He's really saying to Johnson, come on,

:41:41. > :42:00.have a go. And the American dead. -- did.

:42:01. > :42:07.And excellent wrong footer, you could see Johnson moving across to

:42:08. > :42:08.counter the backhand, throwing everything to try and recover that.

:42:09. > :43:01.But he wasn't close. The winner of this match will play

:43:02. > :43:07.either Gael Monfils archive Nishikori -- or Kei Nishikori in the

:43:08. > :43:10.semifinal. There is a bronze medal match at the Olympics, so if you

:43:11. > :43:19.lose the semifinal you have a chance for a medal.

:43:20. > :43:27.Murray only has one medal insight, the gold he won four years ago,

:43:28. > :43:30.interesting he says he doesn't feel he is defending his Olympic medal,

:43:31. > :43:41.no one will take that away from me, I'm just looking for another. It is

:43:42. > :43:45.a positive spin on it. Things have got progressively difficult for him.

:43:46. > :43:50.So easy in the first couple of rounds, almost too easy against

:43:51. > :43:52.Troicki and Monaco. Very easy to start against Fognini, which turned

:43:53. > :44:05.into a nightmare but he came through it. The same thing here.

:44:06. > :44:10.Johnson was tantalisingly close at 4-3 in this third set will now serve

:44:11. > :44:49.to stay in the match. Strong return. Pressure multiplies

:44:50. > :45:23.on Johnson. There is a chance and he knows it. A

:45:24. > :46:44.bit of a bluff from Johnson coming forward there.

:46:45. > :46:52.Oh, well played, Andy Murray. It looks for a moment like the forehand

:46:53. > :46:58.down the line from Johnson may have gone wide, but Murray decided not to

:46:59. > :47:47.challenge, he carried on and what a decision that was. Two points away.

:47:48. > :48:01.Very well played. No gremlins there, for Steve Johnson. On the Centre

:48:02. > :48:47.Court, fantastic win against Petra Looking across and seeing what

:48:48. > :49:51.Johnson was doing. Didn't seem that his eye was on the ball, totally.

:49:52. > :50:05.Missing those earlier in this match, but he got it down to the Dean --

:50:06. > :50:31.down to 80 there. -- down to eight T -- a tee.

:50:32. > :50:37.Starting to make too many mistakes again. That's where we were earlier

:50:38. > :51:09.in the match. So, once more Murray moves to within

:51:10. > :51:16.a game of the semifinal spot. Unlike at Wimbledon, there will be a break

:51:17. > :51:26.to decide this match. Johnson holds here.

:51:27. > :51:34.Not the result he wanted that time. It's been that kind of match,

:51:35. > :51:42.nothing's come easy after the first that. Seems erratic, like that never

:51:43. > :51:54.happened and it hardly did, it was over in 25 minutes. Since then it

:51:55. > :52:03.has been a beast of a match for both of them. Murray won the only match

:52:04. > :52:09.they've played together before, on Shanghai on the hard court, winning

:52:10. > :52:21.it two and four. This is a slower tennis court than it Shanghai. -- in

:52:22. > :52:37.Shanghai. So, what is Johnson made of here.

:52:38. > :52:53.Been going for two hours, as Johnson serves for the second time to stay

:52:54. > :52:57.in the match. Oh, that's fantastic. I think is the only time in the

:52:58. > :53:06.match that he had a forehand down the line that is proved as

:53:07. > :53:09.beneficial as that one. -- that's proved. Glorious strike. Once again,

:53:10. > :53:44.the pressure doubles. Strong serve. Johnson is challenging the call, the

:53:45. > :53:56.call was out. Johnson is challenging. When they go into the

:53:57. > :53:57.breaker they get one extra challenge but right now, he's out of

:53:58. > :54:12.challenges. Mr Johnson has no more challenges

:54:13. > :55:01.remaining. Murray quickly trying to regain

:55:02. > :55:22.ground into the centre. Johnson, watching him like a hawk.

:55:23. > :55:36.Well played. It was good from Murray all stop it was a decent gamble but

:55:37. > :55:37.Johnson was equal to it and no wonder that primeval screen when it

:55:38. > :56:25.landed. -- scream. He's a force of this fella -- force

:56:26. > :56:30.of nature. Here we go, then. Two hours and five minutes and we are in

:56:31. > :56:47.for a tie-break to decide this Olympic quarterfinal. Still, the

:56:48. > :56:49.smart money, surely, is on Murray. Can Johnson have his match of

:56:50. > :58:05.matches? Fantastic What a rally, one of the

:58:06. > :58:08.rallies of the match. Such a cute shot from Murray. Still it needed

:58:09. > :58:45.finishing off. That was a good, crisp volley. No

:58:46. > :59:22.bones about that one. Still it is Murray with a

:59:23. > :59:50.mini-break. STUDIO: Welcome to viewers on BBC
