:00:11. > :00:16.Welcome to viewers on BBC Two of further coverage of the Olympics and

:00:17. > :00:24.Jason Kenny in the second of a best of three match race for a place in

:00:25. > :00:29.the gold medal race, Jason Kenny having lost the first race. Chris

:00:30. > :00:39.Hoi is convinced he can win. Let us find out with our commentators.

:00:40. > :00:53.He will maintain his interest in maintaining the title. A few final

:00:54. > :01:05.deep breaths. This is the man he has to beat, Denis Dmitriev from Russia.

:01:06. > :01:15.Sir Chris Hoi was saying earlier that there was a slight technical

:01:16. > :01:20.air, he was caught napping, fractions of a second as this race

:01:21. > :01:25.gets underway, it shows what a good opponent Denis Dmitriev is, there is

:01:26. > :01:30.no room for errors as they move agonisingly close to this Olympic

:01:31. > :01:36.final for gold. We are about to find out, Jason Kenny is going to be in

:01:37. > :01:41.that or not. At least it keeps his hopes alive. Interesting to see how

:01:42. > :01:47.Denis Dmitriev plays this, what sort of race he would prefer. I think

:01:48. > :01:53.Jason Kenny will be better from the back. We will have to wait and see,

:01:54. > :02:00.Denis Dmitriev is a very capable rider, clearly he is, but tactically

:02:01. > :02:04.as well. He has pushed and pushed Jason Kenny and Jason Kenny

:02:05. > :02:09.accelerated to keep control and that is exactly what Denis Dmitriev

:02:10. > :02:15.wanted. He is allowed to control things from the back. The pace early

:02:16. > :02:18.on here, Denis Dmitriev in the middle of the track, trying to

:02:19. > :02:24.encourage him to dive underneath so he can close the door on him. Force

:02:25. > :02:29.them to come along way round Denis Dmitriev continuing to look to his

:02:30. > :02:33.left hand side, a look to the right, down to the bottom of the track and

:02:34. > :02:38.he starts to wind it up and Jason Kenny needs to get his skates on and

:02:39. > :02:43.he starts to close the gap. One lap to go, Jason Kenny will have to win

:02:44. > :02:49.this from the back as they go down at the back straight. Jason Kenny

:02:50. > :02:55.stars to close the gap. Jason Kenny is looking good, has he got the

:02:56. > :03:01.speed? Yes! Jason Kenny, much more like it on that second ride. Timed

:03:02. > :03:05.at that one perfectly, got the momentum, carried him past the

:03:06. > :03:10.Russian rider and takes it to a third and deciding race to decide

:03:11. > :03:18.who will go through to the gold medal final here in the men's

:03:19. > :03:22.sprint. Both of those riders favouring the back position, we

:03:23. > :03:28.might see a fight to get that back slot in this deciding round that

:03:29. > :03:33.will define who will go for gold and who will race for the bronze medal,

:03:34. > :03:38.but Jason Kenny very much back in the hunt here. It does look close,

:03:39. > :03:44.but the speed he had built up with a quarter of a lap to go, it was clear

:03:45. > :03:48.he had the momentum. Jason Kenny will be feeling happier about things

:03:49. > :03:53.now that he is right back in the running. He looked frustrated at the

:03:54. > :04:00.end of that first ride when he was beaten by the Russian. He has got

:04:01. > :04:05.the speed to win it, clearly here. It is everything else around it that

:04:06. > :04:11.has to come together. He cannot make any mistakes, one much all and Jason

:04:12. > :04:24.Kenny and Denis Dmitriev. A fairly quick turnaround, but now it is with

:04:25. > :04:27.race number two, Callum Skinner against Matthew Glaetzer. Callum

:04:28. > :04:31.Skinner won the first race and if he wins this he is into the final and

:04:32. > :04:37.guaranteed a minimum of a silver medal. He won it superbly with real

:04:38. > :04:44.style. Matthew Glaetzer did everything he could, but Callum

:04:45. > :04:50.Skinner just steam-rollered him. Callum Skinner looking straight at

:04:51. > :04:56.the Australian now. Needs to win this to keep his gold medal hopes

:04:57. > :05:02.alive. This is Callum Skinner's opportunity to get into a gold medal

:05:03. > :05:09.final, guarantee himself a medal at these games. It is all on the line

:05:10. > :05:18.for the Australian rider. Former world champion in the team sprint.

:05:19. > :05:24.Matthew Glaetzer leading on this first lap. Callum Skinner who has

:05:25. > :05:28.had such a wonderful week here in the Rio Velodrome so far, can he

:05:29. > :05:35.keep it going? They know how to use the track, it is 40 1 degrees, an

:05:36. > :05:39.awful lot of hill to roll down. It is 26 metres further on the outside

:05:40. > :05:43.and they have to blend speed and distance to get the optimum

:05:44. > :05:50.trajectory as the sprint starts. They will take the Bell shortly. The

:05:51. > :05:53.sprinters are now. Matthew Glaetzer on the front, Callum Skinner

:05:54. > :05:57.hurtling after him on the back straight. It looks as if he might

:05:58. > :06:03.have the speed here, Callum Skinner, what has Matthew Glaetzer got left?

:06:04. > :06:08.Can he hold him off? He cannot. Brilliant from Callum Skinner! Two

:06:09. > :06:11.straight rides, he was too good for a Matthew Glaetzer. That was

:06:12. > :06:19.stunning. The tactical riding was superb. I want to see the replay.

:06:20. > :06:24.Matthew Glaetzer did a great job. Callum Skinner double Bluffton, died

:06:25. > :06:30.down the track and shot straight back up get that extra distance.

:06:31. > :06:35.Fantastically done, such a mature performance. It has not just been

:06:36. > :06:38.about speed, it is about tactics as well and he has been extremely

:06:39. > :06:44.impressive all the way through this competition. It just clicked for him

:06:45. > :06:50.and we see here, keeping his height, not getting sucked in, there it is,

:06:51. > :06:55.I am coming down, know I am not, he paused about was the moment. Such

:06:56. > :07:01.class. It means that Callum Skinner has not needed to go to three rides.

:07:02. > :07:05.He can save his legs like he did in the quarterfinal. He has two fewer

:07:06. > :07:12.rides and bad is good and will keep fresh. He is in to the Olympic final

:07:13. > :07:18.and guaranteed a minimum of a silver medal. Will it be an all British

:07:19. > :07:22.fair against Jason Kenny or will it be against Denis Dmitriev from

:07:23. > :07:29.Russia, we do not have long to find out? Chris Hoy is watching this with

:07:30. > :07:36.me. You were so impressed with Callum Skinner. He was fantastic.

:07:37. > :07:41.When Matthew Glaetzer gets the front, and he is difficult to get

:07:42. > :07:44.past. He is quick and strong but Callum Skinner gained some height

:07:45. > :07:51.and ran at him and you saw as he came into the Bell, he gained height

:07:52. > :07:55.again. Here, Matthew Glaetzer is trying to draw him in, Callum

:07:56. > :08:02.Skinner wants to keep the height and has the advantage. He has drawn him

:08:03. > :08:05.down, he tries to keep the gap. He attacks him now, you will start

:08:06. > :08:09.giving everything. The point of having a gap is you can close into

:08:10. > :08:16.it. It is like a slingshot and he did that perfectly and he is

:08:17. > :08:19.cruising. He is into the final. Great riding from him and Callum

:08:20. > :08:24.Skinner and Jason Kenny were team-mates along with Philip Hinds

:08:25. > :08:27.when they won the gold medal in the team sprint, Jason Kenny has had to

:08:28. > :08:32.fight for a place in the decider because he lost the first race

:08:33. > :08:36.against Denis Dmitriev, what did he do differently? He played to his

:08:37. > :08:42.strength and in the second one he is using the height of the track, he

:08:43. > :08:48.can use maximum speed, not get drawn into an acceleration competition.

:08:49. > :08:51.You see the gap, really winding up the pace, pushing Denis Dmitriev on,

:08:52. > :08:56.Jason is having none of it, he is running at him. You will see the

:08:57. > :09:01.difference in top speeds, he uses a slingshot technique, rushing him

:09:02. > :09:08.into that gap and he is cruising past and that was a 10.0. Incredibly

:09:09. > :09:14.fast, that will give Jason are huge boost. Normally you do not celebrate

:09:15. > :09:19.until you have won one or two rounds and you can see what that meant. I

:09:20. > :09:23.think the balance has shifted in favour of Jason, he has his Mojo

:09:24. > :09:28.back and fingers crossed we will have an all British vinyl. It is all

:09:29. > :09:34.about recovery, their final race will be straight after the medal

:09:35. > :09:42.ceremony for the women's keirin. In terms of his fitness, Jason is a

:09:43. > :09:47.good recovery. He is. Part of the trick is not to let your opponent

:09:48. > :09:53.see how hard you are suffering and how bad you feel. Your opponent is

:09:54. > :09:57.struggling as well. There were times when I was throwing up into buckets

:09:58. > :10:03.out of sight so my opponent did not see it. Often it can be a mind game

:10:04. > :10:08.to let them think that you are feeling fine. He will enjoy watching

:10:09. > :10:13.this, the silver medal was won by Becky James. That in itself was a

:10:14. > :10:19.great performance. Absolutely and Becky James could hardly contain her

:10:20. > :10:26.joy at the outcome, after what she has been through, it was a wonderful

:10:27. > :10:30.ride from her and it took an extraordinary final lap to ensure

:10:31. > :10:34.that she is on the podium where she is standing now. She had to find

:10:35. > :10:40.something extra. She had to go around the outside, but she found a

:10:41. > :10:48.way through and found a way into second place and she beat some

:10:49. > :10:59.brilliant cyclists, including the parents world champion, Kristina

:11:00. > :11:07.Vogel. There is one of the all time greats, and 11 time world champion,

:11:08. > :11:09.Anna Meares. Many viewers will remember her rivalry against

:11:10. > :11:17.Victoria Pendleton. She is still going strong at 32. She retired once

:11:18. > :11:20.and came back. Both higher and Becky James, we enjoy seeing, they do it

:11:21. > :11:38.for the love of it and the result, it is what it is. -- both higher and

:11:39. > :11:47.Becky James. We will see Anna Meares again in the women's sprint. She won

:11:48. > :12:01.that in London. Silver medallist, representing Great Britain...

:12:02. > :12:05.Rebecca James! Becky James, bronze medal in the World Championships

:12:06. > :12:11.earlier in the year, that gave her belief. She was approaching her best

:12:12. > :12:15.and she has gone one better in Rio with an Olympic silver medal. It is

:12:16. > :12:19.just great to see her racing again and racing to such a high standard

:12:20. > :12:24.that we all know that the former world champion is capable of. She

:12:25. > :12:28.was not sure if she would come back after that injuries so to see her

:12:29. > :12:34.here is incredible. This will not be the last that we see of her. I will

:12:35. > :12:41.not be the last time we see her on a podium either. Gold medallist and

:12:42. > :12:58.Olympic champion, representing the Netherland. -- representing the

:12:59. > :13:02.Netherland. Elis Ligtlee! 22-year-old Elis Ligtlee has already

:13:03. > :13:06.shown what a talent shears, silver medallist in the World Championships

:13:07. > :13:11.in the spread last year, bronze in the 500 metre time trial in the

:13:12. > :13:18.World Championships, but now she has landed the big one -- sprint. She

:13:19. > :13:23.was not the favourite going into it, we knew she was capable, but you

:13:24. > :13:30.would not have picked as the winner in the field. I do not think she

:13:31. > :13:37.would. That is the beauty of the keirin, it is who spots the

:13:38. > :13:38.opportunities and who has the legs. Ladies and gentlemen, the anthem

:13:39. > :14:49.from the Netherland 's. She deserved that gold medal for the

:14:50. > :14:53.way she took that raised by the scruff of the neck and asserted her

:14:54. > :14:57.authority on it. She clung on at the end. Becky James on the left-hand

:14:58. > :15:12.side smiling with that silver medal. And ears completing the podium at

:15:13. > :15:35.the end of an excellent race. Elis Ligtlee adding the Olympic

:15:36. > :15:38.title to four European titles she won earlier in the year. She

:15:39. > :15:43.couldn't quite believe she hung on and won the race. Becky James,

:15:44. > :15:48.unbridled joy at claiming an Olympic medal. And ears a little bit

:15:49. > :15:52.disappointed she couldn't add to the two Olympic titles she is already

:15:53. > :15:56.won over the years. Still competing at the very highest level. In a

:15:57. > :16:00.sense she took the gold medal from Becky James because she made the

:16:01. > :16:05.move from the back first, didn't she? If she hadn't gone, Becky James

:16:06. > :16:10.would have gone, would have been a very different outcome. Fair play to

:16:11. > :16:17.her. Gold medal for the Netherlands, and for Elis Ligtlee. STUDIO: The

:16:18. > :16:23.smiling face of Becky James. Chris, she has been such a battler to come

:16:24. > :16:29.back from injury. There is an ears, clearly loves her cycling, and it is

:16:30. > :16:35.her life. -- there is an ears. We'll discuss Becky James in a moment.

:16:36. > :16:38.Jill, who do you have with you? You've been celebrating watching

:16:39. > :16:42.your team-mate collect that gold medal. You are one of the biggest

:16:43. > :16:48.names of these games. We saw one of the most extraordinary pieces of Ike

:16:49. > :16:52.handling earlier on in the keirin. It was bizarre, I was really happy I

:16:53. > :16:57.didn't crash. I don't know what happened but I stayed up, it was

:16:58. > :17:02.really weird. I'll let you look on the monitor if we can. I'm sure

:17:03. > :17:18.you've seen it before. I've seen some. Pushed right up onto the

:17:19. > :17:22.hoardings. What did it feel like? It was really coming close. I thought,

:17:23. > :17:32.I don't want to crash there, because it's so dangerous. We've seen others

:17:33. > :17:39.crashed theirs. I just knew I didn't need to crash there. Luckily I stand

:17:40. > :17:43.up, so I was really happy with that. It was extraordinary, many had never

:17:44. > :17:46.seen anything like it. You are reasonably new to cycling on the

:17:47. > :17:52.track, because you are a speed skater. Yeah, I picked up some

:17:53. > :17:56.skills, I'm happy with that. Thank you, we are delighted you came out

:17:57. > :18:02.safely. I'll let you celebrate with the rest of your team-mates. Yeah,

:18:03. > :18:06.I'm really proud of Elis, she raced incredibly, such a good race, she

:18:07. > :18:09.did really good. Thank you very much indeed.

:18:10. > :18:17.Very good to see her fine now. The Dutch in the road race... They've

:18:18. > :18:22.some horrible faults. They have, the girl who won, Elis Ligtlee, she had

:18:23. > :18:27.a terrible crash with Vicky Williamson at the start of the year.

:18:28. > :18:31.Vicky came out of it worse. It's great to see her back. It shows some

:18:32. > :18:41.of the most spectacular crashes can be not too bad. Some of the

:18:42. > :18:44.innocuous ones can be serious. When there was that crash in the road

:18:45. > :18:48.race, the Dutch went on to win. Crash in the preliminaries and they

:18:49. > :18:53.go on to win gold. You know Becky James commune Lopez story. I think

:18:54. > :18:59.she's now with Jill. -- you know Becky James, you know her story.

:19:00. > :19:05.You've got the medal. Wonderful scenes on the podium. Yeah, over the

:19:06. > :19:10.moon, it's still not sinking in, the whole race was a complete blur. I

:19:11. > :19:14.can't actually believe it. What was the family saying when you were able

:19:15. > :19:20.to talk to them after the race? They were over the moon, they didn't come

:19:21. > :19:24.here with any expectations. It's been a long time since I've won

:19:25. > :19:28.medals, I knew my form was good, I wanted to come in and do my best,

:19:29. > :19:32.they were thrilled for me. I'll let you talk to some others, thank you

:19:33. > :19:43.very much indeed, lovely smile on the podium. Thank you, thanks.

:19:44. > :19:52.Hello, hello. Do you want to send a message to Georgiou is upstairs with

:19:53. > :20:00.Clare I don't know what to say! See you later! -- a message to George.

:20:01. > :20:09.Thank you for the support with my terrible mood swings! You've got

:20:10. > :20:17.gloves as well, you say. Becky's sister is here as well, Ffion. She's

:20:18. > :20:22.been through so much with injury in the last three years, she's worked

:20:23. > :20:28.so hard. All of us know exactly what she's been through, it makes it mean

:20:29. > :20:32.even more. We're so proud of her. It sums it up really. What did you make

:20:33. > :20:36.of her performance tonight, for a while it looked like she might be

:20:37. > :20:40.out of the medals completely. I don't know much about cycling. At

:20:41. > :20:44.1.I thought, oh my God, what do I say? Fair play, she's worked so hard

:20:45. > :20:49.for everything and today she deserves it. It's been a tough 18

:20:50. > :20:55.months for her, very chuffed, very proud. How much does it help being a

:20:56. > :21:00.sportsman yourself, understanding coming back from injury? It does

:21:01. > :21:04.help, injury is a tough place, especially on your own, like Becky

:21:05. > :21:10.is, it's taken a lot of hard work and dedication to it. Words can't

:21:11. > :21:17.describe how proud I am. What's the plan now, celebrations, holiday? Bit

:21:18. > :21:20.of a break? Jim Mallinder is watching, I'm training tomorrow.

:21:21. > :21:26.I'll be celebrating, hopefully I get to see her for a bit, then back

:21:27. > :21:31.tomorrow. Have you enjoyed it, this experience, or is it horrible? I'd

:21:32. > :21:37.hated it, so nervous. I have loved it but I'm a terrible spectator.

:21:38. > :21:40.You're proud of her, both of you, I'm sure. Thanks for coming on and

:21:41. > :21:44.having a chat with us. Thanks to you both.

:21:45. > :21:50.Chris Hoy knows all of these team members very well. Callum Skinner

:21:51. > :21:55.was inspired to take up cycling by watching Chris Hoy at the 2004

:21:56. > :21:58.Olympics. This is Chris Hoy helping him in his very early days of

:21:59. > :22:04.learning to be a race rider. He was part of the Edinburgh racers cycling

:22:05. > :22:09.club. He is about 12, doing a standing start, giving him tips. He

:22:10. > :22:14.seems to have mastered it. He got on start no problem at team sprint, won

:22:15. > :22:18.gold, hasn't done badly. He's into the gold medal for the individual

:22:19. > :22:27.sprint as well. He face Jason Kenny or Denis Dmitriev? I firmly believe

:22:28. > :22:31.Jason can win this, I think he's got his confidence back. He made an

:22:32. > :22:35.error in the first ride. Ideally he wants to replicate the second ride,

:22:36. > :22:40.ride from the back, create a gap, create height, rush at Amitri with

:22:41. > :22:48.speed, not get drawn into an acceleration battle. -- the decider

:22:49. > :22:53.for Jason Kenny, his opportunity to get himself into a gold medal race

:22:54. > :22:57.tomorrow against his team-mate Callum Skinner. Can the defending

:22:58. > :23:01.champion David, Simon? Listening to Chris it sounds as if Jason Kenny

:23:02. > :23:05.has plenty to think about as he goes into the third and final ride.

:23:06. > :23:10.Sudden death, there is the fatigue factor, an awful lot of sprinting

:23:11. > :23:19.tonight. Both of these riders will want to be in the rear position. At

:23:20. > :23:21.the moment it's Jason Kenny who has to lead. Perhaps we will see some

:23:22. > :23:32.cat and mouse. Dmitriev composing himself in these

:23:33. > :23:37.moments before the third and final ride. Callum Skinner of Great

:23:38. > :23:42.Britain awaits in the final. Jason's fiance Laura Trott can hardly bear

:23:43. > :23:47.to watch. This is it, he's got one shot to get himself into a gold

:23:48. > :23:52.medal final. He and already the Olympic sprint champion, he won't

:23:53. > :23:57.settle for anything else. -- being the sprint champion. He can't afford

:23:58. > :24:05.to make a single mistake. Tactics have to work out. He's got the

:24:06. > :24:11.speed. We know he can win this. But Dmitriev is a very wily customer. He

:24:12. > :24:16.will be very happy sitting where he is at the moment. He has passed the

:24:17. > :24:20.half lap mark, if you want to do a standstill, he could do that no, but

:24:21. > :24:26.Dmitriev knows that might happen, so he's slowed down by riding up the

:24:27. > :24:31.track. He, too, wants to stay at the back. He has the element of surprise

:24:32. > :24:39.in a slipstream to use. Jason Kenny can win from the front, but he can't

:24:40. > :24:48.make any mistakes. The margin for error here is extremely small. For

:24:49. > :24:52.Jason Kenny. And for Denis Dmitriev, of course. Tied at 1-1 in this

:24:53. > :24:59.best-of-3 semifinal. The slow pace adds to the tension, as we build up

:25:00. > :25:05.to this momentous final sprint. It becomes a risk now going slow

:25:06. > :25:09.because we've only got a lap and three quarters to go. He's resigned

:25:10. > :25:16.himself to having to build up that speed or he could be caught out. Now

:25:17. > :25:20.they start to wind it up and really get on top of the gear as they come

:25:21. > :25:24.into the bell. Jason Kenny will take this one out from the front. Kenny

:25:25. > :25:29.around the bottom of the track, just goes a little bit wide, Dmitriev try

:25:30. > :25:33.to draw level, Jason Kenny needs to find that extra bit of speed. Into

:25:34. > :25:37.the finishing straight, he's found it, he's done it, Jason Kenny into

:25:38. > :25:44.the Olympic final! It's an all British final in the match sprint!

:25:45. > :25:48.One of the blue ribbon events of track cycling. Gold and silver

:25:49. > :25:53.guaranteed for Great Britain. It's going to be Callum Skinner against

:25:54. > :26:05.Jason Kenny. And the bronze will be between Matt Phillips of Australia

:26:06. > :26:12.and Denis Dmitriev of Russia. -- Matt Glaetzer. Kenny did the

:26:13. > :26:16.bluffing this time, drew him in. It was phenomenal, the way he pulled

:26:17. > :26:20.him in, left his acceleration this time till the back straight. When

:26:21. > :26:27.Dmitriev came over the top he had more to give, once he had him on the

:26:28. > :26:31.hit was all over. He was keeping it interesting. He is often done this

:26:32. > :26:35.in the past, he has one lapse in concentration. He's done it again,

:26:36. > :26:40.got it out of the way. What a relief. Two Brits in the final. I

:26:41. > :26:48.mentioned at the start, did Kenny go high in the start of the sprint? It

:26:49. > :26:58.was right at the beginning. I didn't see him impede his opponent's course

:26:59. > :27:01.at all. We'll wait to see. I don't think he did anything untoward. It

:27:02. > :27:08.depends how precise the judges wants to be. Laura's smile is back on her

:27:09. > :27:13.face. It didn't go away for long, but it was very tense down there in

:27:14. > :27:17.the track centre with so much at stake for those two cyclists. A

:27:18. > :27:23.tremendous piece of work from Jason Kenny. What a final it's going to be

:27:24. > :27:27.between these two. Two races to Jason Kenny, nothing untoward.

:27:28. > :27:30.Looking down the middle of the judges panel, not having any

:27:31. > :27:35.discussions, so we're on tenterhooks waiting to see if there are going to

:27:36. > :27:39.be any issues. Looks like he's through and Great Britain guaranteed

:27:40. > :27:41.a gold medal. Who will it be in the final? Callum Skinner has been very

:27:42. > :27:51.impressive so far. 9pm tomorrow night will be the best

:27:52. > :27:55.of three races. And all British affair for the first time since 2008

:27:56. > :27:58.when Jason Kenny took an Chris Hoy. Do you think he broke any rules

:27:59. > :28:04.there? When I watched first time I didn't see anything. He did come out

:28:05. > :28:07.of the red line. We've seen it happen a couple of times already in

:28:08. > :28:10.the competition and nothing has been done about it. In the last 200

:28:11. > :28:18.metres he comes outside the line. It's minimal, but rules are rules.

:28:19. > :28:22.As we mentioned, Vicky Pendleton got relegated for coming out for a

:28:23. > :28:27.fraction in London. The judges are using a bit more discretion here,

:28:28. > :28:30.being, did it affect the result, would Dmitriev have come around if

:28:31. > :28:37.he hadn't done that, I think the answer is no. For that reason I

:28:38. > :28:42.think the result will stand. A gold medal on day one. On day two, Day

:28:43. > :28:45.three for the women's team pursuit, silver for Becky James and

:28:46. > :28:51.guaranteed gold tomorrow. The head coach must be pretty proud, he's

:28:52. > :28:53.with Jill. Very proud head coach Ian Dow, you've given yourself a

:28:54. > :28:59.headache tomorrow, how will you manage? The last thing the coach

:29:00. > :29:03.just said to me, are we going to push the boys out and let them race

:29:04. > :29:06.tomorrow? I said, we'll think about that tonight, what a great problem

:29:07. > :29:10.to have. Not the first time it happened, we saw in Beijing. I was

:29:11. > :29:15.telling Justin about that before we got to Beijing it was my dream to be

:29:16. > :29:17.able to push Chris and Jason out in the London Olympics together in the

:29:18. > :29:21.sprint final, that was my professional ambition, a few weeks

:29:22. > :29:26.later we did it in Beijing, quite unexpected and quite special. London

:29:27. > :29:30.we never got the chance. Here again tomorrow, it'll be pretty special,

:29:31. > :29:35.great afternoon to enjoy. A word on the performances of the pursuit team

:29:36. > :29:40.and Becky James, another two medals tonight. The team pursuit women was

:29:41. > :29:43.an awesome performance, we dismantled the USA. We knew they

:29:44. > :29:47.would come out hard, we were pretty close to them even after the first

:29:48. > :29:51.kilo. After that we were confident enough to come back. I didn't expect

:29:52. > :29:55.to see them come back in such emphatic style, did a great job.

:29:56. > :29:58.Becky James, the most emotional medal for me. It wasn't long ago

:29:59. > :30:02.Becky was facing career threatening injuries. She is such a nice person,

:30:03. > :30:07.such a solid professional. A real grafter. It just goes to show you

:30:08. > :30:11.shouldn't give up on your dreams and it can come good for you.

:30:12. > :30:23.Thank you. The most emotional medal was the one for Becky James, do you

:30:24. > :30:29.agree? I do. It was so unexpected. After everything that has happened

:30:30. > :30:33.to her, we almost come to expect from the team pursuit, the team

:30:34. > :30:41.sprint was special, but for a silver medal, that was incredible. The

:30:42. > :30:54.keirin was so exciting. Tomorrow we have the Omni on starting. Mark

:30:55. > :31:01.Cavendish. Also, we will see Becky James again and Katie Archibald,

:31:02. > :31:08.sorry, Katie Marchand. I think both the girls, you would not have said

:31:09. > :31:14.they were medal prospects, not guaranteed, we have not won medals

:31:15. > :31:18.in this since 2013 and Becky James and her quadruple medal haul, but

:31:19. > :31:23.seem the belief they all have, Katie will have been watching this, she

:31:24. > :31:28.will be lifted by it all and those riders, I would not bet against

:31:29. > :31:33.them, based on what we have seen, we could get another medal in the

:31:34. > :31:39.women's sprint. It is tremendous to watch. Thank you. Between now and at

:31:40. > :31:43.midnight, myself and Mark Chapman will take you through some of the

:31:44. > :31:51.highlights which is already turning into a Super Saturday. Here is what

:31:52. > :31:56.is coming up. It was the last day of rowing. Could Great Britain go out

:31:57. > :32:03.with a bang? The men's eight and the women's eight were in action. We

:32:04. > :32:12.will see Andy Murray in the men's singles semifinal trying to earn a

:32:13. > :32:16.place in the gold medal match. We will reflect further on events in

:32:17. > :32:23.the Velodrome, it has been another very good night for British

:32:24. > :32:27.cyclists. And we will set the scene for what could be a wonderful night

:32:28. > :32:35.of athletics as the Super Saturday trio from London aim for a golden

:32:36. > :32:52.repeat of what is turning into a sensational early hours of Sunday.

:32:53. > :32:58.Tennis, we will look back on what happened to Andy Murray because he

:32:59. > :33:02.was in action against Kei Nishikori and he knew he needed to win this

:33:03. > :33:07.one if he was going to earn himself the right to defend his title. We

:33:08. > :33:12.will join it with Andy Murray one set and 5-3 up and Kei Nishikori

:33:13. > :33:21.serving to stay in the match. Your commentator is Simon Reade.

:33:22. > :33:26.Kai Nishikori coach by Michael Chang who is not here, neither is Ivan

:33:27. > :33:59.Lendl or Jamie Delgado. I do not know if there is a problem

:34:00. > :34:05.therefore Kei Nishikori but he seems to be moving to his left, not able

:34:06. > :34:15.to get any power on the backhand. Any power at all. Andy Murray, such

:34:16. > :34:26.a keen watcher, will be all too aware of that.

:34:27. > :35:25.But when he is in the zone, he can hit it well.

:35:26. > :35:31.Well played, Nishikori, it he bounces first. He is hanging on by a

:35:32. > :35:48.thread. The crowd doing all they can. Not

:35:49. > :35:52.too many British fans here. The ones that are are quiet despite the

:35:53. > :36:05.smooth course of Murray, it seems, moving towards the final.

:36:06. > :36:15.Watching Nishikori you're always looking for signs of wear and tear.

:36:16. > :36:23.I cannot see anything obvious, indeed he played that game well.

:36:24. > :36:32.Murray has taken advantage. He has ignored the irritation of Carlos

:36:33. > :36:39.Ramos. He is one game away from his third Olympic medal, along with the

:36:40. > :36:44.silver medal with Laura Robson in London, the gold medal, beating

:36:45. > :37:05.Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal, it was career changing, back in 2012.

:37:06. > :37:17.Murray serving for the match with new balls.

:37:18. > :37:27.Served out wide. That has been fruitful.

:37:28. > :37:59.He has served remarkably well, 83% first serves.

:38:00. > :38:06.That is as good a return as Nishikori has made in the match.

:38:07. > :38:18.Couple of quick steps. Launching himself at that one.

:38:19. > :38:42.Murray keeping control of the match, but in the end it was an unforced

:38:43. > :39:26.error from Nishikori. It was a teaser, you would expect

:39:27. > :40:46.Murray to take care of that. He launches it into the second serve

:40:47. > :40:53.of Murray. Where has this kind of form been prior to this game with

:40:54. > :41:47.macro three or four games? It is very late, but it is not too late.

:41:48. > :42:01.Oh! Rally of the match, perhaps the rally of tournament! You have to

:42:02. > :42:06.feel for Nishikori. What a sensational rally that was. Murray

:42:07. > :42:23.will not be denied. Hopefully we will see a replay of

:42:24. > :42:36.that later. It is match point number three.

:42:37. > :43:22.Nishikori disappointing, but Murray, no blips today in their semifinal.

:43:23. > :43:31.He is into his second successive Olympic singles final. Magnificent.

:43:32. > :43:33.So it will be either a gold medal again or a silver medal for Andy

:43:34. > :43:45.Murray. Didn't he play well? And he will meet Juan Martin Del

:43:46. > :43:51.Potro who is coming back from another injury in top form, having

:43:52. > :43:56.knocked out Novak Djokovic, he then beat Rafael Nadal in a deciding

:43:57. > :44:02.third set, the match took three hours and eight minutes. Rafael

:44:03. > :44:06.Nadal who won a medal in the men's doubles, fought hard but Juan Martin

:44:07. > :44:11.Del Potro was too much for him. He said that that win was even more

:44:12. > :44:13.special than when he won the US Open in 2009. He will fight for the gold

:44:14. > :45:01.against Andy Murray. -- gold medal. Good evening, welcome to our

:45:02. > :45:09.Copacabana bays in Rio de Janeiro, as you know by now. The Lagoa rowing

:45:10. > :45:14.complex is a 15 Minute Drive on a good day. Today was the final day of

:45:15. > :45:18.the regatta. Yesterday all British eyes were on the women's pair and

:45:19. > :45:22.the men's four who both got gold. Today it was about the big beasts,

:45:23. > :45:24.the eighth. We'll look at the women's race later on. First, here

:45:25. > :45:36.is the men's. Nine men, one common gold, -- common

:45:37. > :45:40.goal. They will have to bare their souls. If they do that, they know

:45:41. > :45:50.they will be rewarded for it. Great Britain in lane three, mother right.

:45:51. > :45:54.Alongside them, Germany. New Zealand sitting in lane number six. A

:45:55. > :45:58.glorious sight. The blue ribbon event leaves the start here. 100

:45:59. > :46:10.metres to go, the British have jumped out. Leading. The sense that

:46:11. > :46:14.the crew is ahead of them, only two meters apart in the lane, they will

:46:15. > :46:18.know that. This is where I expect Britain to be ahead, a 500 metres,

:46:19. > :46:25.it's the second 500 that will determine this race. The big two

:46:26. > :46:27.guns head-to-head at the moment. Your British eight, Scott Durham,

:46:28. > :46:39.Tom Ransley, Andy Hodge, Matt Gotrel, Pete Reed, Matt Langridge.

:46:40. > :46:45.Responsible for getting the British crew from gun to take. Stretching

:46:46. > :46:50.long and loose here. They are right on the edge. At the 500 metres.

:46:51. > :46:59.Let's see. Quarter of the race done. It is a Great Britain over Germany.

:47:00. > :47:06.They start to stretch out. This next 100-150, they have to nail it.

:47:07. > :47:11.Length, with, nail the speed. They will move to a quarter of a length.

:47:12. > :47:17.All going the right way so far. They have a real with. Will Satch or

:47:18. > :47:23.setting a nice rhythm. Stroke for stroke with the Germans. -- Satchel

:47:24. > :47:28.setting a nice with. Four men up. This is the way to do it. The second

:47:29. > :47:32.500 they can determine whether gold and silver medals will go. The

:47:33. > :47:40.Germans are normally quick in their second 500. In the second 500 they

:47:41. > :47:46.will lay down some big 250 metre pushes, where they can win the race.

:47:47. > :47:49.Sorry to interrupt, a go there from Will Satch. Three quarters of a

:47:50. > :47:59.length up here. This is the moment, stretch it out. Closing the door on

:48:00. > :48:04.the Netherlands in lane number two to the right. Poland top of the

:48:05. > :48:08.picture here. The United States of America in this race, New Zealand

:48:09. > :48:13.lane number six. We're at the halfway mark. Great Britain by

:48:14. > :48:17.almost one length, it's been a heavyweight duel in the first half.

:48:18. > :48:24.The punches have all been coming from the British. Now into the third

:48:25. > :48:31.500, surely they have done enough. They'll be starting to think it's

:48:32. > :48:36.going our way. The Germans have matched them stroke for stroke. If

:48:37. > :48:40.the boat speed is the same for the next two and a half minutes, that's

:48:41. > :48:49.it, the medal is out of sight, the Germans have got to do something and

:48:50. > :48:53.take a risk now. Germany being pushed on hard in lane number two.

:48:54. > :48:58.Netherlands coming on strong. The Netherlands crew 20 years to the

:48:59. > :49:05.day, give or take, Netherlands won the Olympic title in the men's

:49:06. > :49:09.eight. Through 250. Tonnes of inspiration for the Netherlands.

:49:10. > :49:15.Feel the speed... A glorious shot if you are British. Your bowel man in

:49:16. > :49:21.the British aid, Scott Durant, it'll feel like he is miles ahead, this is

:49:22. > :49:27.what they've worked for. -- in the British eight. The Americans are out

:49:28. > :49:32.of the game, the Germans raising the Dutch for silver. They may come back

:49:33. > :49:38.on the Brits, but the Brits laid it down in the first half. They are

:49:39. > :49:42.reaping the benefits. Three quarters down, 500 metres remaining in this

:49:43. > :49:45.final. The men's eight. Checking positions. Great Britain from

:49:46. > :49:51.Germany from Netherlands. In the closing stages they see the rest of

:49:52. > :49:55.the world coming back at them. Germany stepping up again. They have

:49:56. > :50:01.to lay it down, be able to die for each other, keep it cool. Keep it

:50:02. > :50:06.calm, keep it along, but stepped up all the time, keeping the door

:50:07. > :50:09.closed. The British have to keep the door closed, don't give Germany or

:50:10. > :50:15.the Netherlands a sniff at this. This is brilliant, they haven't

:50:16. > :50:18.raced anybody else's race plan, they've raised fares, they have

:50:19. > :50:25.fitness and strength and know exactly how to get from a- B quick.

:50:26. > :50:29.I'm delighted. This is what they deserve, the way they've approached

:50:30. > :50:32.this season is fantastic, the guts they have had to row their race in

:50:33. > :50:37.the final is brilliant. 125 out from the line. Four words that will

:50:38. > :50:42.strike fear into the hearts of any of the opponents, those are Great

:50:43. > :50:48.Britain are strong. They are strong, they are long, the Germans now

:50:49. > :50:51.giving it one last push, so, too, are Netherlands. Great Britain

:50:52. > :50:57.hanging on, and they do with their heads up, their pride intact. Almost

:50:58. > :51:03.there. Just the last couple of strokes, and it is Great Britain in

:51:04. > :51:06.the men's, men's eight, they are the Olympic champions, it has a

:51:07. > :51:10.fantastic ring about it. From month to take the whole way it was Great

:51:11. > :51:19.Britain's race, they did not lose it at all in the closing 100. The fists

:51:20. > :51:22.go up. Welcome to the club. It Olympic champion for you. And your

:51:23. > :51:28.crew. Salute each and every one of you. You drove them home in style.

:51:29. > :51:35.It was fantastic, absolutely fantastic. So different to four

:51:36. > :51:43.years ago. Today we just controlled from the start. We've always shown

:51:44. > :51:47.the raw speed in training. Today was about delivery, doing what we've

:51:48. > :51:51.done. These guys were magnificent today, absolute gladiators. It's

:51:52. > :51:58.been a long time coming, it feels a bit surreal. Finally, Olympic

:51:59. > :52:04.champion. Three! That was the angriest, fiercest, most ruthless,

:52:05. > :52:08.absolutely everything in that. It was very, very aggressive, I mean,

:52:09. > :52:13.that was as fistfight as it comes, it was really good. Can't wait for

:52:14. > :52:16.the national anthem. It's been great to win silver and bronze, it's

:52:17. > :52:19.always been about this for me, about being Olympic champion, standing in

:52:20. > :52:23.the middle of the podium getting the national anthem. I couldn't have

:52:24. > :52:31.done it with a better group of guys. I've been in all different boats.

:52:32. > :52:36.Nine guys going for one thing, plus the coaches, it's a great feeling.

:52:37. > :52:44.Third time lucky, but it's all worth it. With Britain beating Germany for

:52:45. > :52:52.the first time this year, it was time for all of the men to get the

:52:53. > :52:58.top that podium, collect their gold medals, and listen to the national

:52:59. > :52:59.anthem. ANNOUNCER: ladies and gentlemen, the anthem of Great

:53:00. > :53:07.Britain. APPLAUSE

:53:08. > :53:58.CHEERING ANNOUNCER: ladies and gentlemen, the

:53:59. > :54:01.Olympic medallists. STUDIO: Every time we have medallists in, it's

:54:02. > :54:05.fascinating to see how they react to what they've been watching. Starting

:54:06. > :54:09.with you Tom, is at the first time you've seen it back? We watched the

:54:10. > :54:14.race back when we got back to the hotel. We haven't seen the podium

:54:15. > :54:19.stuff, so... Happy with everything on the podium, was it OK? Yeah,

:54:20. > :54:25.quite surreal. It hasn't got any more normal watching it on TV. None

:54:26. > :54:31.of you did a server and put your tongue out. This city was built to

:54:32. > :54:36.hold nine people on it, in the planning, the idea was the Sethi was

:54:37. > :54:39.built for the men's or women's eight, to include the Cox as well,

:54:40. > :54:42.thank you for not letting us down, otherwise it would have looked

:54:43. > :54:47.lonely. Did it go tactically as he wanted it to? I think today was our

:54:48. > :54:52.perfect race, we've talked about it in the past, our coaches have talked

:54:53. > :54:59.about it, and today the execution was down to the team. It's a

:55:00. > :55:03.textbook way of winning, leading from the front, defending, we always

:55:04. > :55:07.had it in control. It was these guys in the boat who really delivered

:55:08. > :55:13.when it mattered. Andy, you spoke about the anger and ruthlessness on

:55:14. > :55:21.the start line. Why were you angry, why was that feeling of

:55:22. > :55:25.ruthlessness? Or eight, nine of us, including Juergen, we all had

:55:26. > :55:29.something to prove today, it's been four years in the making, it's not

:55:30. > :55:33.always gone to plan. We've had to fight tooth and nail through this

:55:34. > :55:36.process. It's only fair to bring this on to the start line. It was

:55:37. > :55:41.going to bring out something with the Naas that we needed for the race

:55:42. > :55:45.today. -- within us. We've gone through the drills, we knew what to

:55:46. > :55:51.do technically to make it happen. You need the fire, the spirit. Today

:55:52. > :55:55.it was a magical mix of all of it. We all watched the last 500 again,

:55:56. > :56:01.there is something to prove. It's interesting. You are an three

:56:02. > :56:04.Olympic gold medals, but I assume as soon as you win one you feel you

:56:05. > :56:10.have to prove something again, that what you're saying? I'm not right

:56:11. > :56:16.now editorial -- I'm not saying right now. Maybe in rowing the

:56:17. > :56:21.standard is set so high after Sir Steve and Zermatt. It discredits the

:56:22. > :56:32.guys who just won their first Olympic gold medal if we say that.

:56:33. > :56:37.-- Sir Stephen House Sir Matt. Is difficult to justify those reasons,

:56:38. > :56:42.you make so many sacrifices. We've all got friends and family who

:56:43. > :56:47.haven't seen us, all those things. To go forward is a very personal

:56:48. > :56:55.thing, what are we looking at? Oh my God! Everybody sniggering! You are a

:56:56. > :56:58.proper team, as soon as you see something where someone else is

:56:59. > :57:04.looking ridiculous, you are straight in laughing at them. How hard is

:57:05. > :57:09.putting the chemistry of eight people together? I've spoke into

:57:10. > :57:12.pairs and fours during the Olympics, isn't it the hardest chemistry to

:57:13. > :57:21.work at? For me it definitely is. The singles... If you can't get on

:57:22. > :57:25.with yourself... For me, it's my third time in the eight. The

:57:26. > :57:30.chemistry hasn't... It's hard to make a job... In this age it has

:57:31. > :57:33.worked straight from the beginning, in that sense it has been an easy

:57:34. > :57:39.ride. We may not have had the results go our way in the season,

:57:40. > :57:43.but we've always had that belief. We always knew we could do it. We

:57:44. > :57:51.really believed we'd get it right on the day, that gelled us together. In

:57:52. > :57:54.that sense it's been quite easy. To reiterate, you hadn't beaten the

:57:55. > :58:02.German boat this season. That's right? Yeah, the last three years we

:58:03. > :58:07.have. That is when it counts. This was the big one, we teach this up,

:58:08. > :58:12.even since London, it's been set in stone on the 13th, we're on. Doing

:58:13. > :58:16.the job today with these guys is something really special. We'll get

:58:17. > :58:21.the thoughts of more of the guys in a moment, we'll hear from Jurgen

:58:22. > :58:28.Grobler just now, the head of men's rowing. Jurgen Grobler, another one.

:58:29. > :58:35.Another one, number 12. Just fantastic what the guys did. Top

:58:36. > :58:41.race. And they matched the coxless four in a wonderful way, really

:58:42. > :58:45.good. Just fantastic. You've won 12 now, does it mean as much now as it

:58:46. > :58:49.did for the first one? Of course. The last one counts most. It's

:58:50. > :58:56.wonderful, it's wonderful. For British rowing. It's wonderful for

:58:57. > :59:01.our sport. I feel so good for the guys. There's a good mix between

:59:02. > :59:10.older ones and younger ones. It's fantastic. He's won medals as a

:59:11. > :59:13.coach since 1972. Not in 1984 because a lot of the Eastern Bloc

:59:14. > :59:24.countries didn't go to Los Angeles. What does he mean to you? The medal?

:59:25. > :59:31.No, Jurgen you can do either, fine by me. He's demonstrated time and

:59:32. > :59:34.time again is an exceptional coach. It's amazing. Everyone has their own

:59:35. > :59:41.methodology for doing things. Juergen 's has been shown to be

:59:42. > :59:44.incredibly successful. We've known him so well, we've spent so long

:59:45. > :59:48.together. You say we have a really good team atmosphere in the boat but

:59:49. > :59:51.across the whole squad we have a great atmosphere, including Juergen.

:59:52. > :59:54.You can really tell the demented huge amount to him, he wasn't doing

:59:55. > :59:57.himself justice, that was really important to him. That was the

:59:58. > :00:01.message all along, that was really important to him, I feel proud to

:00:02. > :00:09.have taken part in bringing it to fruition for him. Is he boat, stick

:00:10. > :00:14.and carrot? -- is he both. Depends who it is, really. Who does he use

:00:15. > :00:18.the stick with the most? Probably me. Actually, maybe Tom, Tom might

:00:19. > :00:29.argue with him. His methods are something, you

:00:30. > :00:34.cannot quantify how he gets the most out of everyone. It is little

:00:35. > :00:39.things, things you probably do not notice. He has just got an eye and a

:00:40. > :00:45.feel for it. He brings everything together, it is not just technical

:00:46. > :00:51.aspects, it is creating atmosphere which allows everyone to do their

:00:52. > :00:56.best and it breeds success. Are you all right if I do not ask you a

:00:57. > :01:06.question? Tell me what the gold medal means to you. It is four

:01:07. > :01:12.years, an amazing achievement. The people who were not in the boat,

:01:13. > :01:15.everyone is a part of this. It has been an amazing ride.

:01:16. > :01:22.Congratulations. Thank you for coming in. Go and enjoy your

:01:23. > :01:29.evening. We might see you once more at the end. Congratulations. Thank

:01:30. > :01:33.you. The men's eight, part of a Super Saturday across the Olympics

:01:34. > :01:35.here in Rio, it is a Super Saturday that will extend into an early

:01:36. > :01:58.Sunday morning. Every year that you do, it is all

:01:59. > :02:02.towards the Olympics. As a young athlete, I wanted to be an Olympic

:02:03. > :02:06.champion. If you can get it right, it is the most amazing and rewarding

:02:07. > :02:10.moment of your life. The pride of Sheffield, the pride of Great

:02:11. > :02:17.Britain, just again as is the Olympic champion! Ice dance short

:02:18. > :02:23.Jessica Ennis-Hill. I knew it was what I wanted to do. Katarina

:02:24. > :02:31.Johnson-Thompson has had three fouls, it is the end of her World

:02:32. > :02:39.Championship. I am glad that it happened. It changed me. I

:02:40. > :02:44.definitely underestimated how hard it would be coming back after having

:02:45. > :02:53.my first child. Jessica Ennis-Hill is back on top of the world! My

:02:54. > :02:58.target is Olympic gold. This will be my last Olympics but I am going to

:02:59. > :03:02.give it everything. I think I have got the ability and I think I am

:03:03. > :03:10.capable of doing it, I would love to defend my title and to see what the

:03:11. > :03:14.future holds. Two women with an incredible array of skills right

:03:15. > :03:19.across the different track and field events, could come down to the two

:03:20. > :03:30.of them battling it out for the gold medal? Here is what has happened so

:03:31. > :03:38.far. Katarina Johnson-Thompson had a lifetime best yesterday. She is in

:03:39. > :03:46.fourth place. That is a decent jump. The white flag is raised. 6.50 one.

:03:47. > :03:52.It is not great. Jessica Ennis-Hill. The leader overnight. A decent jump.

:03:53. > :04:05.Into a pretty strong wind. A pretty good start for the reigning Olympic

:04:06. > :04:15.champion. Nafissatou Thiam. That is massive. Decent jump for the

:04:16. > :04:19.Canadian, Brianne Theisen Eaton. A big effort for Katarina

:04:20. > :04:25.Johnson-Thompson. But it is a foul. Last round. It is not quite what we

:04:26. > :04:31.would have wanted. Jessica Ennis-Hill, third jump in the long

:04:32. > :04:36.jump, she needs a big jump here. The feat came down early. Here is the

:04:37. > :04:39.reaction of her coach. Not happy. He knew that was a chance to put

:04:40. > :04:48.daylight between her and the rest of the world. Here is Nafissatou Thiam.

:04:49. > :04:54.6.1 eight. She likes it, 6.5 eight. That will give Jessica Ennis-Hill

:04:55. > :04:58.something to think about. More than something to think about. Let us

:04:59. > :05:04.catch up with Denise Lewis who has been following everything in the

:05:05. > :05:11.heptathlon. How do you call it? How tight is it at the top? I would not

:05:12. > :05:15.say it is impossible to call. It is difficult, but Jessica Ennis-Hill

:05:16. > :05:21.needs to throw close to her best in the javelin. The young Belgian,

:05:22. > :05:25.Nafissatou Thiam, has had a remarkable two days in the

:05:26. > :05:31.competition and with that stunning long jump, personal best, anything

:05:32. > :05:36.could happen. Heard javelin, she can throw over 52 metres, in the excess

:05:37. > :05:41.of what Jessica has done before. Should she really hit a javelin,

:05:42. > :05:47.then Jessica will have her work cut out. Let us look at the standings.

:05:48. > :05:54.Two events to come, the javelin and the 800 metres later tonight. And

:05:55. > :05:57.Nafissatou Thiam leading, Jessica Ennis-Hill second, Katarina

:05:58. > :06:03.Johnson-Thompson is third, that is what they have done so far. Their

:06:04. > :06:06.personal bests for the events tonight show that Nafissatou Thiam

:06:07. > :06:11.has a huge advantage in the javelin but when it comes to the 800 metres,

:06:12. > :06:17.that is not her strength. It is not her strength. How it will play out,

:06:18. > :06:22.if she happens to catch one of those javelins, should Jessica not quite

:06:23. > :06:26.throw it to her best, and let us say, there is an eight metre

:06:27. > :06:33.difference, it would mean that Jessica has to run for her life.

:06:34. > :06:37.Nafissatou Thiam has had a fantastic two days competition, her running

:06:38. > :06:41.events have been steady, she had just short of her personal best in

:06:42. > :06:45.the 200m and the hurdles, one would say that she is in good shape. If

:06:46. > :06:52.there is a gold medal on the line, she will run for it. I will not say

:06:53. > :06:55.that she will run 2.10, but she could run 2.15 and that is when

:06:56. > :07:01.things could get exciting, but we have seen Jessica in the 800 metres,

:07:02. > :07:07.when she needs to run, she can also take it up a notch. It is difficult

:07:08. > :07:15.to call. You're asking me to predict what happens in sport, we cannot do

:07:16. > :07:19.that. This javelin is very crucial. If they did all perform to their

:07:20. > :07:25.personal bests, this is what could happen. One cannot absolutely

:07:26. > :07:30.predict that they will, but that is what they are capable of that would

:07:31. > :07:36.give Jessica Ennis-Hill victory and she would retain her title it would.

:07:37. > :07:40.I'm comfortable in the fact and the knowledge, based on the type of

:07:41. > :07:45.performer that Jessica Ennis-Hill is, that she will go out and do a

:07:46. > :07:49.solid javelin. She will do enough and then she will just bring it home

:07:50. > :07:54.in the 800 beaters. She will want to cross that line in first place and

:07:55. > :07:58.retain her title, which will be a remarkable achievement. We have not

:07:59. > :08:02.talked about Katarina Johnson-Thompson. At the start of

:08:03. > :08:06.the championships, I was hoping and predicting that there might be to

:08:07. > :08:12.British contenders on the podium, that has never been done before in a

:08:13. > :08:16.heptathlon. I think that she needs to come of age in this competition,

:08:17. > :08:22.show her mettle and throw a really good javelin because we know that

:08:23. > :08:27.she can run a great 100 -- metres. It will be a fantastic finish. You

:08:28. > :08:32.will be watching it. The javelin and the 800 metres to come. Those will

:08:33. > :08:35.be late into the night, early hours of the morning for you at home but

:08:36. > :08:39.definitely worth staying up for. Let us bring you some of the other

:08:40. > :08:49.athletics headlines from earlier today. Usain Bolt admitted his first

:08:50. > :08:51.action of the competition was sluggish but it did not stop them

:08:52. > :09:04.cruising through the 100 metre heats.

:09:05. > :09:11.The man expected to provide the biggest challenge to Usain Bolt,

:09:12. > :09:21.Justin Gatlin got the fastest time in qualifying after getting 10.01

:09:22. > :09:28.seconds. The other Great Britain sprinters had contrasting fortunes.

:09:29. > :09:41.Ellington unfortunately did not progress. London 2012 Silber

:09:42. > :09:44.medallist arrived in Rio with question marks over her form but she

:09:45. > :09:55.looked impressive in qualifying from her heat behind the American Natasha

:09:56. > :09:59.Hastings. British champion Emily Diamond went into the semi-finals

:10:00. > :10:07.despite suffering with food poisoning. She progressed as a

:10:08. > :10:11.fastest loser. Her 400 metre team-mate was not so lucky. She

:10:12. > :10:21.finished last in her hate. She did not progress. And the men's discus

:10:22. > :10:26.was a family affair, the German won gold at London 2012. This time

:10:27. > :10:36.around, it was his younger brother who claimed the Olympic title. Here

:10:37. > :10:40.are your key times from midnight, Jessica Ennis-Hill in second place

:10:41. > :10:45.and Katarina Johnson-Thompson go in the javelin. Greg Rutherford then

:10:46. > :10:50.begins the defence of his long jump title and then Mo Farah could win a

:10:51. > :10:57.third Olympic gold of his career as he defends his title in the 10,000

:10:58. > :11:01.metres final at three o'clock. It almost certainly will all come down

:11:02. > :11:15.to that in the heptathlon, the 800 metres.

:11:16. > :11:21.Will that ten minutes back Sarah took over to just about enough time

:11:22. > :11:24.to take the men's eight out and replace it with the women's aid.

:11:25. > :11:31.Thank you to all of you for coming in. Before we talk, they are giving

:11:32. > :11:33.it away, before we talk about their silver medal success, let us watch

:11:34. > :11:47.the last half of their race earlier. Canada over the USA, over the

:11:48. > :11:51.Netherlands, the British go through, and the one worry is we know how

:11:52. > :12:00.fast and New Zealand are in the second half. They were quick in the

:12:01. > :12:04.second half in their heat. The Americans now are finding their

:12:05. > :12:09.form, they have gone through Canada. The Dutch on the far side are still

:12:10. > :12:13.right up there in the next. The British now will have to draw

:12:14. > :12:17.themselves back, they are not out of it. Definitely coming through

:12:18. > :12:21.strongly as they look back through the last 15 metres. They look at the

:12:22. > :12:26.journey, an incredible journey that has brought these nine away --

:12:27. > :12:29.amazing woman to the brink of an Olympic medal, it has never been

:12:30. > :12:36.done for the women's in the women's eight. It is not about turning the

:12:37. > :12:43.screw once, twice or three times, it is up and going, the moment is now,

:12:44. > :12:48.they have to do this. Get yourself back into contention. Heads up and

:12:49. > :12:52.then we will move on hard. They are coming up through New Zealand and

:12:53. > :12:58.the next is the Dutch and then they are in the medals and the Canadians

:12:59. > :13:05.are coming back. A silver medal is not out of the question. The

:13:06. > :13:09.Americans are moving well. Cast all doubt aside as we go through to the

:13:10. > :13:13.1500 metre mark, the Americans have gone and the great British crew are

:13:14. > :13:19.into bronze medal position. They will not settle for that. They will

:13:20. > :13:27.say that their 500 was good, they want that to be ours, we want to own

:13:28. > :13:33.every stroke, an Olympic final. They are going quicker than Canada. The

:13:34. > :13:40.Americans have got too much. The New Zealand team have had their ago.

:13:41. > :13:45.Great Britain are in the silver medal position. This is brilliant

:13:46. > :13:54.stuff for the British crew. At this point, as we head in, it is all

:13:55. > :13:58.about giving it all, every stroke. This is your moment, Great Britain

:13:59. > :14:02.and now they can put themselves into a position to start challenging.

:14:03. > :14:08.They will not catch the United States of America, they will have to

:14:09. > :14:11.watch out for Romania, because the Romanians are coming to the party.

:14:12. > :14:20.The Romanians are coming to the party but I think they are a bit

:14:21. > :14:27.late. They are pushing themselves. They are coming right back, dead

:14:28. > :14:34.level. An! Great Britain three feet ahead of Romania, alt in front, the

:14:35. > :14:38.USA, these are the moments we live for. The crowd are willing them on.

:14:39. > :14:46.It is looking like it is going to be a silver medal. Trying on, girls!

:14:47. > :14:49.They have done it! Sensational, absolutely sensational. The first

:14:50. > :14:55.time the Great Britain have won an Olympic medal in the women's eight.

:14:56. > :15:11.-- Great Britain women. A momentous day for British sport.

:15:12. > :15:18.It is a remarkable achievement. Yes. I just sit there. It was a fantastic

:15:19. > :15:25.race and watching it back. I was hoping they would not find out how

:15:26. > :15:29.far down they were. I think it was incredible. They kept their heads

:15:30. > :15:31.and they executed everything I asked from them and I could not be

:15:32. > :15:40.prouder. Carnegie-Brown as long as I can see

:15:41. > :15:45.someone near me, I think it's fine, I'm lucky, I sit quite far back in

:15:46. > :15:49.the boat. She was telling me, what you're doing is good, this is how we

:15:50. > :16:04.said we would row, we knew we could trust each other,... Kat Copeland

:16:05. > :16:08.called you absolute badasses. You've been using the hashtag Sassy. Tell

:16:09. > :16:14.us how tight the group you are. The eight isn't just as nine, it is

:16:15. > :16:19.formed by so many women left behind at home, women over the years who

:16:20. > :16:22.have helped us get to this point. We just have to make the unit because

:16:23. > :16:28.there are so many women involved in this. Sassy came from Fran once, who

:16:29. > :16:33.was a bit sassy in the boat. We clung onto that. We've got an

:16:34. > :16:36.incredible group of girls. We are lucky and privileged to be sitting

:16:37. > :16:41.in that both winning these medals with so many girls behind us. We're

:16:42. > :16:48.really tight but we are formed of so many more women behind us. Sir David

:16:49. > :16:52.Tanner earlier talked about how after standing and Glover won gold

:16:53. > :17:00.in London that is when they saw a spike in girls taking rowing. --

:17:01. > :17:04.Heather Stanning and Helen Glover. You expect something similar to

:17:05. > :17:08.happen? I think so, rowing is an amazing sport, you get to hang out

:17:09. > :17:16.with great guys like this every day all day stop I can't tell you how

:17:17. > :17:25.much it has enriched my life to be able to achieve this silver medal

:17:26. > :17:34.around my neck. And meet these girls and formed friendships and bombs we

:17:35. > :17:37.have. You get Windows -- you get to visit incredible places. Christ the

:17:38. > :17:42.Redeemer beaming down as we start the race, in what other sport will

:17:43. > :17:47.you get that? We're very privileged. Can you give us an insight into what

:17:48. > :17:51.the training day was like a month before Rio, if you had a typical

:17:52. > :17:58.training day. What is today? LAUGHTER

:17:59. > :18:05.Rowers train a lot. Our coach has a pretty set programme. Every Monday

:18:06. > :18:10.it would be long row, Munro, weights. Tuesday, long Road, Long

:18:11. > :18:19.Road, weights. Wednesday, row, long row, weights. -- 2-1. We were in

:18:20. > :18:25.that heavy training, building milage in the legs. The King to build up.

:18:26. > :18:41.-- long row. How long is a long row? Maybe two

:18:42. > :18:44.hours. That is a long row. I'll struggle to get everybody in to

:18:45. > :18:50.talk. Do you feel this is just the start? Absolutely. The momentum will

:18:51. > :18:56.build from here, it's been building already. It's been building all the

:18:57. > :18:59.years the women's eight has been participating at the World

:19:00. > :19:05.Championships, Olympics. This is just the start of the medals. We'll

:19:06. > :19:10.continue to succeed. We'll be back to the drawing board, a whole new

:19:11. > :19:16.load of girls will be involved with that. I'm sure many of us will be

:19:17. > :19:20.returning as well, you never know. There is competition for places,

:19:21. > :19:25.strength in depth. Every year to be retested, back to the drawing board,

:19:26. > :19:29.even if it's successful. Each year you will want to find the fastest

:19:30. > :19:34.combination. Thank you for coming in, congratulations. You are going

:19:35. > :19:39.from strength to strength. I'm sorry I couldn't get everyone in, sorry!

:19:40. > :19:43.It's been a remarkable regatta as far as Team GB is concerned, here

:19:44. > :19:47.are sights and sounds from the past few days.

:19:48. > :19:53.Everything that has gone before is now irrelevant. This is a

:19:54. > :20:00.sensational performance. As a silver medal. They are way, good luck

:20:01. > :20:06.Helen, luck Heather. This is an imperious display. They are history

:20:07. > :20:11.makers here again. They go out hard, they go out fast, they'll start to

:20:12. > :20:14.move again, five in a row now for Great Britain. They are the Olympic

:20:15. > :20:19.champions. The moment is now, they've got to do this. They are in

:20:20. > :20:24.silver medal position. From gun to take sensational. The blue ribbon

:20:25. > :20:29.event leads the start, all going the right way. It's been a heavyweight

:20:30. > :20:36.duel. Great Britain are the Olympic champions. That has a fantastic ring

:20:37. > :20:39.about it. It has a fantastic ring about it and we can take a look at

:20:40. > :20:50.how Great Britain's Meadowhall has developed over the years in the

:20:51. > :20:54.Olympics. -- medal haul. The remarkable London when there were

:20:55. > :20:59.nine. We've got five year, three gold - silver. More gold than

:21:00. > :21:03.Beijing, not as many runs. The overall target was six, but now is

:21:04. > :21:12.not the time to talk UK lottery funding and where we go. Fran, this

:21:13. > :21:14.is your fifth Olympics. It is. You are the perfect person to tell us

:21:15. > :21:21.all how you think rowing has changed just in your time. I'm incredibly,

:21:22. > :21:27.so fortunate, I started rowing in 1991. In 1996 someone came to my

:21:28. > :21:30.school and said, I've been to the Olympics. It's an incredible thing

:21:31. > :21:37.to do, I thought, that's what I want to do. Lottery funding came in in

:21:38. > :21:42.1997, it has enabled me to pursue my dream and achieve these three silver

:21:43. > :21:47.medals. There's no way I could have done it without that, to be able to

:21:48. > :21:51.train all those hours Zoe was describing, every day. That's what

:21:52. > :21:56.we have to do to win medals. That is the only reason I've been able to do

:21:57. > :22:02.this. The list of people to thank is there for so long I could never even

:22:03. > :22:11.start. There is Copacabana and if any Meta go and explore, go and

:22:12. > :22:13.celebrate your success. -- there is Copacabana and Ipanema to explore.

:22:14. > :22:28.Let's look forward to what is still to come.

:22:29. > :22:39.A story of human movement. This looks easy. It has been anything

:22:40. > :22:49.but. 1983, the start. Twin boys are born

:22:50. > :23:00.in Mogadishu, Somalia. Eight years later, one twin moves to London. He

:23:01. > :23:06.loves football. Running. Running wince. There are setbacks. A

:23:07. > :23:11.disappointing performance by Mo Farah. Successes. Is destroying them

:23:12. > :23:16.in the home straight, double European champion. He changed,

:23:17. > :23:28.changed routine, coach, changed everything. He must move to move

:23:29. > :23:32.faster. Is he ready now? Is this the time, is this the place? Is kicking

:23:33. > :23:49.again, Farah is going for it, it's cold! It is. -- it's gold. These are

:23:50. > :23:57.mole now is -- these are Mo nights and these are Mo town. Sticks it

:23:58. > :24:02.away, as expected. Our monumental Mo. Mo Farah is best, Mo Farah is

:24:03. > :24:11.world champion again. Five world titles, simply sensational. What

:24:12. > :24:12.comes next in this story? Already among the greats. Can he now pulled

:24:13. > :24:29.clear? Rio Mo. Go Mo. Let's talk a little bit more about

:24:30. > :24:34.what Mo Farah could achieve this evening here in Rio. Paula Radcliffe

:24:35. > :24:39.is at the Olympic Stadium. We've already had over the last 48 hours

:24:40. > :24:44.all sorts of British sportsmen and women setting individual records for

:24:45. > :24:48.medal hauls across Olympics. Mo Farah could become athletics

:24:49. > :24:53.first-ever triple Olympic champion, do you think he'll do it? He's

:24:54. > :24:57.definitely in shape to do it, it's a huge achievement if he does that. It

:24:58. > :25:02.really has to be underlined because we've been so used to Mo Farah just

:25:03. > :25:07.going out and winning and winning a double, we almost take it as giving

:25:08. > :25:12.it a happen. It would be a huge achievement to have held since 2012,

:25:13. > :25:16.World Championships 2013 and 2015, and to come here and do that. I

:25:17. > :25:19.think he can do that and he's in shape to do it, he has the fear

:25:20. > :25:24.factor and dominance over the rest of the field. I think they know what

:25:25. > :25:29.they have tried to beat him. I don't know if they are capable of doing

:25:30. > :25:34.it. How much does the fear factor play a part, the psychological

:25:35. > :25:38.warfare? This plays a huge amount in lots of ways. The confidence it

:25:39. > :25:44.gives to Mo, because he knows he's in as good a shape he's been in. He

:25:45. > :25:47.has everything in his arsenal to be able to go out there and win a race

:25:48. > :25:51.which ever way they try and beat him. It's a huge plus for him, a

:25:52. > :25:55.huge negative for the others. The others know what they have to do,

:25:56. > :26:01.they know how hard it is, they have to really take it out to him and try

:26:02. > :26:04.and break Mo Farah. They may break themselves and sacrifice all chance

:26:05. > :26:09.of a medal. I don't know they have it within them to get organised

:26:10. > :26:15.enough to do that and lay it on the line enough to even try to take the

:26:16. > :26:20.race to him. Do you think his biggest threat comes from an

:26:21. > :26:25.individual? An individual race. Do you think it could come from a

:26:26. > :26:30.country? A couple of countries? Ganging up on him? Is it possible?

:26:31. > :26:35.It is possible but I think the organisation that would take, given

:26:36. > :26:38.within that you have the battle between Kenny and Ethiopia, they

:26:39. > :26:41.don't want to help each other, they want to be the first Kenyan or

:26:42. > :26:46.Ethiopian athlete, make sure they win that team race. To get

:26:47. > :26:50.themselves together enough to do that, then to have people in shape

:26:51. > :26:57.enough to do that. Within the Kenyan team you've got Jeffrey, who gave it

:26:58. > :27:01.everything, beat Mo Farah in the half marathon earlier this year.

:27:02. > :27:05.This isn't a half marathon, this is track. When he tried to do it last

:27:06. > :27:11.year in Beijing he wasn't able to do it, it's already one mental tick

:27:12. > :27:19.against Mo, and one negative for Jeffrey. Maybe they can work

:27:20. > :27:23.together. They tried that in the world marathon Championships. It

:27:24. > :27:27.comes down to an individual in the end, is one person going to

:27:28. > :27:30.sacrifice their chance of a medal to help somebody else? I don't think

:27:31. > :27:36.they have that organisation. Are you aware they may be tactics working

:27:37. > :27:41.against you? Or are you so concentrated on your own individual

:27:42. > :27:45.plan, so you are in a bubble? You absolutely have to be aware. Mo is

:27:46. > :27:49.under no illusions, he knows he is there to be shot at, he knows there

:27:50. > :27:53.is nothing Kenya and Ethiopia would love more than to beat Mo Farah on

:27:54. > :27:58.the track. He knows that. He has huge faith in the training he put

:27:59. > :28:01.in, I've seen some of that training over the last couple of months, he's

:28:02. > :28:06.in great shape, not like he's trying to hang on and retain four over the

:28:07. > :28:11.last four years, he's built on that. His strong. He's a happier and more

:28:12. > :28:16.stable person this year, he knows he's done everything he can, he's in

:28:17. > :28:20.the best shape of his life, that is very hard to beat. Thanks very much,

:28:21. > :28:26.enjoy the evening India Lee big stadium as part of Super Saturday.

:28:27. > :28:30.Let's go straight to Clare in the Olympic Park, keeping an eye on

:28:31. > :28:34.tennis. I keep hearing huge roars from the tennis stadium, forgery go

:28:35. > :28:43.could be about to win their first ever Olympic gold medal. Monica

:28:44. > :28:48.Kamworor is leading 5-1 against Angelique Kerber. Angelique Kerber

:28:49. > :28:52.came in as Australian open champion, Wimbledon runner-up, hot favourite.

:28:53. > :28:58.Monica Puig of Puerto Rican won the first set 6-4, Angelique Kerber took

:28:59. > :29:02.the second 6-4, now curb is 5-1 down. Puig is serving for the gold

:29:03. > :29:23.medal. Some return from Kerber, really

:29:24. > :29:28.rifled that across. Kerber has been in this predicament, she knows how

:29:29. > :29:33.nervous she has been when serving for the Australian open for example.

:29:34. > :29:35.She will have an insight into how Monica Puig feels right now. And

:29:36. > :30:34.what to do in response. She was ready for it. And she

:30:35. > :31:06.delivered. She was increasing the pressure on Monica Puig.

:31:07. > :31:37.She was just a little bit careful there, but still got it done.

:31:38. > :31:52.So cute, again, though brain working so clearly, even in a cauldron of an

:31:53. > :32:18.atmosphere like this. Third break point.

:32:19. > :32:31.I'll! Well the shout out from the crowd did not help. I think it was

:32:32. > :32:37.one of the Germans. And Monica Puig, somehow, survives in this game.

:32:38. > :32:41.Almost did the splits in this game in defence, but so resilient,

:32:42. > :32:52.mentally, Angelique Kerber cannot believe she made that mistake. But

:32:53. > :32:56.it was excellent but she did not have any obvious immediate rejoinder

:32:57. > :33:15.to the shout out from the crowd. Lot of shaking of the head going on,

:33:16. > :33:53.break point number four. There has been no change in her

:33:54. > :33:59.attitude, she sees it and she had said. There has been no semblance of

:34:00. > :34:01.any nerves. Angelique Kerber is playing it back against the wall

:34:02. > :34:34.tennis. Discusses -- dismissive dispatch

:34:35. > :35:24.from Monica Puig, very assured, match point number two.

:35:25. > :35:30.So close, well played Angelique Kerber for keeping as much going.

:35:31. > :35:37.There was almost a nonchalance about the way the German play that point.

:35:38. > :35:41.It was brilliant, nonetheless -- keeping this match going. -- played

:35:42. > :36:08.that point. Yes! Again, no holding back,

:36:09. > :37:08.clinical hurting. -- hitting. It seems like they want this to

:37:09. > :37:31.continue. Quite a view here, we were just about to do the net!

:37:32. > :38:18.The spirit is still very much therefore Angelique Kerber. Surely

:38:19. > :39:07.this, the longest game of the match. It is pivotal.

:39:08. > :39:16.What a gamble on that second serve. She went after that like a first.

:39:17. > :39:39.Break point number six for the German.

:39:40. > :39:56.Amazing! This match is something that just keeps on giving. Skills of

:39:57. > :40:00.the highest order there with the drop shot, it is phenomenal, the

:40:01. > :40:04.angle and speed with which she hit it, remarkable! Fans lusting after

:40:05. > :40:27.more. Yes! Again, no doubt in her mind,

:40:28. > :40:58.she was going all out for that. Gold medal point number four.

:40:59. > :41:24.I still thought she was not going to hang on. What a tense final game,

:41:25. > :41:29.but Monica Puig has won Puerto Rican's first ever Olympic gold

:41:30. > :41:33.medal. They will be celebrating. Look at her, explosion of the

:41:34. > :41:40.motion, she is also the first ever unseeded Olympic champion. Since

:41:41. > :41:49.tennis was reintroduced in 1988. Wonderful moment. For Monica Puig

:41:50. > :41:57.and poetry go, for tennis. Fabulous stuff, that is light, that has just

:41:58. > :42:01.happened on Centre Court -- forgery go. We will see Andy Murray faith

:42:02. > :42:11.Juan Mata -- Juan Martin Del Potro tomorrow. Here are some of the other

:42:12. > :42:19.headlines. Great Britain have high hopes for Joe Joyce in Rio and it is

:42:20. > :42:25.so far so good, he beat Dos Santos and that was a short while ago,

:42:26. > :42:31.victory for Joe Joyce. Brendan Irvine from Ireland lost his men's

:42:32. > :42:40.flyweight round of 32 bouts against the powerful Uzbekistan fighter.

:42:41. > :42:48.Stephen Donnelly went the same way losing a split decision in his fight

:42:49. > :42:51.against the Moroccan number one. Great Britain 's Justin Rose will

:42:52. > :42:55.head into the fourth and final round of the golf tomorrow with a 1-shot

:42:56. > :43:02.lead from the open champion Henrik Stenson. Justin Rose got a hole in

:43:03. > :43:10.Cala three Eagles to end the 12 under par. After four wins, Great

:43:11. > :43:16.Britain rounded off their group stage campaign against the USA with

:43:17. > :43:20.another win. They were 1-0 down and came back before Alex scored four

:43:21. > :43:27.minutes before full-time. There was a gold medal in the Velodrome,

:43:28. > :43:32.another one as well in the rowing and a couple of silver medals. Great

:43:33. > :43:39.Britain are currently third in the medals tables, United States are

:43:40. > :43:45.top, it Michael Phelps contributed four medals. Great Britain are

:43:46. > :43:51.third, Germany bear with eight gold medals as well. Time for a quick

:43:52. > :43:56.reflection on the Velodrome. We saw Becky James win a silver medal in

:43:57. > :44:00.the keirin, what did you make of it? It was electric. I was confident

:44:01. > :44:03.with all of those guys but the women's team pursuit, they were so

:44:04. > :44:09.strong in qualifying and then they were knocking down the world record.

:44:10. > :44:14.The USA came back into the second of the world record time. Then Team GB

:44:15. > :44:22.came back and took another massive chunk of two finish with another

:44:23. > :44:25.record. A great time an incredible experience. We have a guaranteed

:44:26. > :44:29.gold medal tomorrow because the final of the men's individual sprint

:44:30. > :44:33.will be Jason Kenny against Callum Skinner. A win-win situation. They

:44:34. > :44:38.might as well put it on the medal table now. So exciting, great to see

:44:39. > :44:42.Jason Kenny back in his original form but incredible to see Callum

:44:43. > :44:47.Skinner, there are so many doubts in his performance, would he be up to

:44:48. > :44:53.shape, totally delivered, coming into the sprint, incredibly

:44:54. > :44:56.dominant, it will be an exciting final. It will be sensational

:44:57. > :45:02.tomorrow. We will get to see Mark Cavendish. We will let you know

:45:03. > :45:07.about another gold medal which is almost certainly guarantees, Giles

:45:08. > :45:15.Scott has a lead in the fin. He is trying to win that event in place of

:45:16. > :45:18.Ben Ainslie. Jason mohamid is going to take you through the night as

:45:19. > :45:28.Super Saturday turns into sensational Sunday morning. When I

:45:29. > :45:32.meet somebody for the first time, people tell me where they were.

:45:33. > :45:37.People want to be a part of that night. That moment of crossing the

:45:38. > :45:43.line and having family there. The atmosphere was incredible. Something

:45:44. > :45:47.I have never experienced. Just knowing that I had put all those

:45:48. > :45:59.events together, it had all gone right, an amazing feeling. That's

:46:00. > :46:03.gold medal, amazing. Did that really happen?
