Hockey – Australia prevail after penalty strokes to meet Germany in the semi-finals. The Kookaburras took the lead twice, only for the Netherlands to peg them back on each occasion and take the game to penalty strokes, but in the high pressure situation Australia scored all three of their efforts, the Netherlands failed to score any of theirs.

Hockey – Netherlands have not scored their first two penalty strokes. Huge advantage to Australia.

Hockey – Australia and the Netherlands are going to penalty strokes.

Behind him there’s a four-way tie for second with Rory Sabbatini (SVK), Sepp Straka (AUT), Hideki Matsuyama (JPN), and Paul Casey (GBR) all in the mix.

Men’s 400m – Michael Cherry (USA) set the fastest time in the first round of heats for the 400m. The three semi-finals take place tomorrow, and they will include defending champion and world record holder Wayde van Niekerk (RSA), Australian Steve Solomon, and American Michael Norman.

Women’s Long Jump – Serbia’s Ivana Španovic set the best mark ahead of Tuesday’s final with a leap of 7.00m. Americans Brittney Reese and Tara Davis qualified with ease, and they will be joined by a pair of Great British athletes, Abigail Irozuru and Jazmin Sawyers, as well as Australian Brook eStratton, who qualified lucky last in 12th.

Women’s 3000m Steeplechase – Bahrain’s Winfred Yavi set the fastest time in qualifying for Wednesday evening’s final.

Elizabeth Bird (GBR) qualified 14th, Genevieve Gregson (AUS) 15th.

Women’s Hammer: Poland’s world and Olympic record holder Anita Wlodarczyk absolutely dominated qualifying, setting the leading distance of 76.99. Brooke Andersen (USA) qualified third with 74.00. Compatriots Gwen Berry and Deanna Price also progressed. The final is on Tuesday night.

Logan Martin came in with high hopes and he delivered, setting a mark of 93.30 in his opening run that nobody could match. Daniel Dhers (VEN) came very very late with a 92.05 to snatch silver. Declan Brooks (GBR) held onto bronze with 90.80.

Gymnastics: Simone Biles has withdrawn from the floor final.

BMX Freestyle: Keeping an eye on the last few runs of this final now with Australia’s Logan Martin still leading with 93.30 from Declan Brooks (GBR) and Kenneth Tencio (CRC).

Swimming: In amongst all the records broken in the pool, Joseph Trivers has emailed in to remind me not to forget about Canada’s Penny Oleksiak. She was part of her country’s bronze medal-winning 4x100m medley relay unit, making her the most decorated Olympian, male or female, in Canada’s history.

BMX Freestyle: Keeping an eye on the last few runs of this final now with Australia’s Logan Martin still leading with 93.30 from Declan Brooks (GBR) and Kenneth Tencio (CRC).

BMX Freestyle: Australia’s pre-race favourite Logan Martin leads in the men’s park final with a run of 93.30. Team GB’s Declan Brooks backed up his early 89.40 with a 90.80 to sit in second for now.

Swimming: Another gold for the legend Caeleb Dressel, and a world record to boot. The US had the strongest quartet, and Dressel’s butterfly sealed the deal. Adam Peaty’s breaststroke earned Team GB silver, once again demonstrating his margin of dominance over his rivals is the greatest of any swimmer at these Games, just phenomenal.

Australia fifth.

Swimming: Wow! Adam Peaty is superhuman, he has dragged GBR into the lead after the breaststroke leg. USA second, Italy third.

Swimming: USA (Murphy) lead after the backstroke leg from Italy and China.

Swimming: Time for the final race in the pool, the men’s 4x100m medley relay…

A dominant final from Gong Lijao. She was the only athlete to throw beyond 20m, winning with a distance of 20.58m. She threw the FIVE farthest distances of the final, holding off Raven Saunders (USA) for silver and Valerie Adams (NZL) bronze.

Women’s Shot Put – Just one round of throws remaining and Gong Lijao (CHN) has strengthened her grip on the gold medal position, extending her field leading mark to 20.53. Raven Saunders (USA) is pushing hard in second, Valerie Adams (NZL) is holding on to third.

BMX Freestyle: The men’s park final is underway and Team GB’s Declan Brooks has taken an early lead with 89.40.

Swimming: Emma McKeon – four gold, three bronze. Unbelievable. The most golds by any Australian in a single Games. The most medals at a single Games by any female Olympian in history, tied with Maria Gorokhovskaya in 1952.

Swimming: Oh my goodness. Cate Campbell… The USA were cruising, dominating the first three legs, but then Cate Campbell from Australia powered through to draw level after 50m, then hold on to touch first in a new Olympic record. Absolutely incredible, and the motif of the meet – Australia powering through late – continues right to the very end. The most successful swim meet in Australia’s Olympic history – and ANOTHER GOLD to Emma McKeon, making her not only the most successful Australian swimmer of all time but the most successful individual female athlete at a single Games. Blimey.

Swimming:Still the USA from Australia and Canada after the butterfly leg.

Swimming: After the breaststroke leg the USA (Jacoby) now lead from Australia (Hodges) with Canada losing ground.

Swimming: After the backstroke leg Canada (Masse), Australia (McKeown), and USA (Smith) have put clear water between them and the rest of the field.

Swimming: As well as Australia, the USA, Canada, and Italy all qualified in the 3m 55s range.

Swimming: The final women’s race of the meet is about to get underway. It’s the 4x100m medley relay, and of course it is a stacked field. Even so, Australia’s Emma McKeon is the centre of attention. After securing the 50m freestyle a few minutes ago she is on the brink of yet more history, for herself, and the Australian swim team.

Women’s Shot Put – We’re halfway through the final of the women’s shot put and Gong Lijao (CHN) is in the gold medal position. Raven Saunders (USA) is second, Valerie Adams (NZL) third.

Men’s Hockey: Germany have beaten Argentina 3-1 in their quarterfinal. They will face the winner of Australia v Netherlands, which is up soon.

Remarkable. Worthington’s first run was a bust, but in her second she stormed to an incredible 97.50! Hannah Roberts (USA) could not improve on her opening 96.10 and has to settle for silver. Bronze to Nikita Ducarroz (SUI).

Australia’s Natalya Diehm ends fifth.

Swimming: 1500m racing is not supposed to be that exciting! Four men were in a race of their own for 10 minutes, but as the Italian dropped off it became a 50m sprint for the medals. After sitting on the shoulder for 1450m, Finke kicked hard at the end to swim past Romanchuk and Wellbrock. Thrilling.

Gold – Robert Finke (USA)

Silver -Mykhailo Romanchuk (UKR)

Bronze – Florian Wellbrock (GER)

Swimming: Those same four guys are all within touching distance after 1,000m of the men’s 1,500m freestyle. This is going to be a gripping finish.
