Hello, I'm Lizzie Greenwood Hughes, welcome to the BBC Sport Centre. | :00:13. | :00:16. | |
Wedded badminton bliss, sublime soccer skills on crutches | :00:17. | :00:25. | |
But first let's take a quick look at some | :00:26. | :00:28. | |
Defending champions Great Britain will go into today's | :00:29. | :00:33. | |
Davis Cup doubles tied at 1-1 with Japan. | :00:34. | :00:35. | |
Andy Murray won his singles rubber but Dan Evans was beaten. | :00:36. | :00:38. | |
Great Britain has a new track cycling star after John Dibben | :00:39. | :00:41. | |
stormed to victory in the scrtach race at the World Championships. | :00:42. | :00:43. | |
Britain also won two bronzes on day three. | :00:44. | :00:48. | |
And it's being billed as 'the biggest North London derby' | :00:49. | :00:51. | |
ever - as second-placed Tottenham host third-placed Arsenal | :00:52. | :00:53. | |
in the Premier League's lunchtime game. | :00:54. | :00:54. | |
It is still 0-0. Many of us play competitive sports with our partners | :00:55. | :01:09. | |
but very few take it to an international level. Gaby and Chris | :01:10. | :01:14. | |
Adcock have done that. Two years ago, the Badminton duo became the | :01:15. | :01:19. | |
first husband and wife team to win Commonwealth gold and they have Rio | :01:20. | :01:31. | |
in their site. -- sights. Yes, for the first time ever, husband and | :01:32. | :01:36. | |
wife have won the gold medal in the mixed doubles. It was massive for | :01:37. | :01:42. | |
us, we wanted to achieve one thing, bringing back the gold medal, and we | :01:43. | :01:48. | |
did. They said a couple that played together stay together and the two | :01:49. | :01:52. | |
have taken it to a world beating level. Would you say that marriage | :01:53. | :01:58. | |
is a help or hindrance to success? We do not have another frame of | :01:59. | :02:03. | |
reference to judge it. Should more of your players get married? I don't | :02:04. | :02:10. | |
know about that. For them, it is really good because they can invest | :02:11. | :02:16. | |
their time in the same direction. Gaby and Chris train for seven hours | :02:17. | :02:23. | |
a day, six days a week, and they eat, sleep, breathe Badminton but | :02:24. | :02:25. | |
away from the court it is a different story. The life we lead, | :02:26. | :02:32. | |
we cannot complain, or we enjoy what we are doing, and we enjoy our time | :02:33. | :02:36. | |
at home, especially when we have our dog. If we are playing all right and | :02:37. | :02:42. | |
doing OK, we enjoy it even more. Is there any moment when you think, we | :02:43. | :02:47. | |
are always here, would be go to work, when we wake up in the | :02:48. | :02:51. | |
morning? A lot of people say they could not do it. Their tournaments | :02:52. | :02:57. | |
when things do not go as well, and it is nobody's fold, and that can be | :02:58. | :03:01. | |
more difficult because we are both so driven and really disappointed. | :03:02. | :03:07. | |
-- fault. Low moments have been few and far between. Commonwealth | :03:08. | :03:12. | |
champions and seven in the world rankings, they have a good chance of | :03:13. | :03:20. | |
an Olympic medal. We have played them a lot. It is the Olympics but | :03:21. | :03:26. | |
it is another Badminton tournament and we want to play well and win. | :03:27. | :03:33. | |
One more Badminton tournament week and hopefully do well in. Good luck | :03:34. | :03:41. | |
to both of them for this week's All-England Championships in | :03:42. | :03:42. | |
Birmingham. If you have not seen this clip, concentrate. Look at this | :03:43. | :03:51. | |
goal scored in the people's cup semifinal last weekend. They have | :03:52. | :03:55. | |
become the talk of the competition. Luckily we were already filming them | :03:56. | :04:03. | |
for the BBC's Get Inspired story. You are in the workshop where we | :04:04. | :04:14. | |
make static limbs. This is where Ray, the guy who formed the team | :04:15. | :04:20. | |
originally, approached me and asked if I could help out and get some | :04:21. | :04:26. | |
players to get the Portsmouth team up and running. The centre forward. | :04:27. | :04:36. | |
TJ, the bearded monster. Mike, dopey. He is an arm amputee. Rob is | :04:37. | :04:45. | |
in goal, a big an arm amputee. Chris, miserable, and amputee. | :04:46. | :04:56. | |
Roger, Mr hairdo. And amputee. Midfield, centre-half, plays | :04:57. | :05:03. | |
wherever he once. Ray, a GB star and Internet sensation. I used to travel | :05:04. | :05:12. | |
up to Manchester to play football with a different team so I started | :05:13. | :05:15. | |
one in Portsmouth so I did not have to travel so far, and for other | :05:16. | :05:21. | |
amputees as well. We play using our crotches, not with our legs, to make | :05:22. | :05:28. | |
it an even keel. Every amputee has a different ability. We are playing | :05:29. | :05:32. | |
with a mixed bag of disabilities. It could be anything from learning | :05:33. | :05:39. | |
difficulties, deaf teams, they will all have two legs versus R one. When | :05:40. | :05:46. | |
we first started, it is quite hard. The more you get into the game, the | :05:47. | :05:51. | |
more you forget you have crutches. You forget everything and go for it. | :05:52. | :05:57. | |
Amputee football has become really big, it has a big following. If you | :05:58. | :06:02. | |
come into the changing room and hear the banter, it can be nasty but very | :06:03. | :06:07. | |
funny. Everyone supports each other, everyone gives a little bit, it is | :06:08. | :06:14. | |
really good fun. It went really well today, we got to be final and won | :06:15. | :06:22. | |
5-2. We were a bit shaky and we went down but we came back, composed, and | :06:23. | :06:31. | |
finished off. Well, the Portsmouth team got through to the semifinal | :06:32. | :06:34. | |
weekend in two weeks' time and you can see more of their semifinal | :06:35. | :06:40. | |
heroics in the people's cup on BBC iPlayer later today. This summer, | :06:41. | :06:44. | |
golf will be part of the Olympics for the first time in more than is | :06:45. | :06:48. | |
entry with the world's best going for gold in Rio. While many players | :06:49. | :06:55. | |
would choose a major win over an Olympic medal, everyone agrees that | :06:56. | :06:58. | |
inclusion in the game is a chance to show off golf to a new audience, | :06:59. | :07:05. | |
thickly in the women's game. Tae kwon do to athletics to cycling and | :07:06. | :07:09. | |
more, the Olympics have helped define some of Great Britain's | :07:10. | :07:13. | |
biggest female sporting stars, and now golf. Yes, golf. It would be | :07:14. | :07:21. | |
amazing to say I am playing in the Olympics and I am Olympian, and | :07:22. | :07:25. | |
hopefully come away with winning something. It is a goal of mine to | :07:26. | :07:30. | |
get in it and try and win it, and it is an event you have always watched | :07:31. | :07:35. | |
growing up, and I loved watching the London Olympics, so it will be a | :07:36. | :07:40. | |
great experience to play in it. For the first time in over 100 years, | :07:41. | :07:44. | |
golf will appear in the Olympics, likely to lead Team GB's medal | :07:45. | :07:49. | |
charge is the young and old generation. Charlie is a young | :07:50. | :07:57. | |
rising star while this woman has 11 titles. Having grown up dreaming of | :07:58. | :08:06. | |
major success, is the Olympics one to look for? For me, it would be a | :08:07. | :08:15. | |
Major. Ever since I was younger, it would be winning a major, so winning | :08:16. | :08:20. | |
the British Open. Perhaps not the ultimate prize just yet but for a | :08:21. | :08:25. | |
sport desperate to attract a growing number of members, this could be | :08:26. | :08:29. | |
good. You would get more people growing, and you can't get any | :08:30. | :08:35. | |
bigger than the Olympics so it should hopefully encourage more | :08:36. | :08:36. | |
girls and boys. Tottenham - Arsenal | :08:37. | :08:40. | |
is still goalless. It is looking pretty entertaining so | :08:41. | :08:53. | |
far. There is live commentary. Next up on BBC One are highlights of the | :08:54. | :09:00. | |
cycling and the Davis Cup. Have a good afternoon, goodbye. | :09:01. | :09:03. | |
