Bronze for GB in the mixed triathlon relay this morning, after initially being announced in 2nd place.
Some good qualifying performances this morning but Molly Caudery is on the brink of elimination in the pole vault.

Molly Caudery is out of the pole vault.

Total disaster - will be an interesting inquest we can remove her from SPOTY list.
I'm getting nervous about Keely Hodgkinson - they're hanging the gold medal around her neck already but the 800m can be tactical.
I'm not convinced Mary Moraa is that badly out of form.

All the athletes who cleared 4.40m first time in pole vault qualifying have made it through to the final, meaning 20 athletes in the final. Caudery was the only one in her qualifying group to skip 4.40 and go straight in at 4.55. For context, in terms of how everyone seemed to be struggling today, the automatic qualification height was 4.70.

Kimberley Woods and Joe Clarke both through to the kayak cross finals. Hopefully BBC will actually show them live now that their slightly obsessive gymnastics coverage has ended.

Laura Kenny has just predicted GB to win EIGHT track cycling gold medals... Don't know whether she genuinely believes that or whether it's a hint of Glenn McGrath's "5-0" Ashes prediction that he always makes.

Bronze for Kimberley Woods. She was leading but got taken out by a slower paddler on one of the turns. She then tried to do the same to the leader Noemie Fox (sister of double gold medalist Jessica) but the move didn't pay off and she crossed the line 4th but the German paddler got a penalty, promoting Woods to 3rd.

GB through to the team sprint final. BBC didn't show it live because they were busy talking... about the cycling...
