I see Laurel Hubbard failed in the snatch.

Tom Cruise will be disappointed.

Sifan Hassan has just won gold in the women's 5000m for The Netherlands, she is also competing in the 1500m and the 10,000 if she wins all 3 she will be the first person to do it.

No snatch was registered, so not allowed to progress to the (clean and) jerk - is that right ?

Warholm's time is absolutely incredible. Almost beggars belief.

Two golds in sailing, closing in on the Aussies in the medal table now. If we had just not kept losing in the last second in the taekwando we would be clear already.

Loved watching him lose his rag. In future we should always use a fat bloke at the back in cycling to stop anyone overtaking.

There should be a weighting to the medals table. Classic events and other proper sports rank higher than some lesser sports and the nonsense events don't count at all. Silly new events in proper sports don't count either.

The arbitrator of these designations should be me.

Yafai into the semis in the boxing meaning we're guaranteed 6 medals in it now.

Pat McCormack loses his final, was outclassed by the Cuban. Another Silver in the bag though.
