Great.racing, 3 of 4 golds in the velodrome are GB's, and we would have won the other if we weren't disqualified...

And another soon, in the pool?

That's two silvers for the Chinese so far, who seem to have come from nowhere. One bronze in 2008 (I think).

I can't help but think in the Rio games they would be a very prominent force.



It's all gone just a little wrong for GB. Ennis has had a poor shot to finish 2nd overall, halfway through, but with much left to do. Our women's footballers are following the men, in being down 2-0 and looking out of it at the moment, whilst Addington only manages 3rd currently. But who knows! It's been a great day, with 3 golds and 4 bronzes, but things are gonna have to be the same tomorrow to keep hopes of 3rd alive...

Dont suppose we will get the US coach asking questions about the 15 year old American doing something "disturbing" this time will we?


Of course not, she is American. 20sec of her PB in a year or so is much more time than the chinese girl achieved or so Thorpe said.

Yes! Murray and federer in the mens final! I hope murray wins this time



Murray has a chance against federer. Federer has been poor in this Olympics. Unfortunately for Murray even if he won gold I'm sure it wouldn't come close to making up for the loss in the Wimbledon final. That one took a lot out of him.



Great from Murray! And here's the medals table:

Come on Andy, great match against Djokovic.



Andy Murray was brilliant.

Shame for Adlington, but the young American lass looked a league ahead of the rest.
