  1. 'Rutherford benefits from home comforts'

    Dai Greene
    2011 world 400m hurdles champion on BBC TV

    Being at home and spending time with his family is what he prefers. He's obviously spent time and money putting a long jump pit in his garden. The other guys put in big jumps here and there in the year, but it's different in the big competitions.

  2. A warm welcome to Rutherford

  3. Rutherford joins exclusive club

    Greg Rutherford is continuing with his lap of honour, posing for the men with the long lenses with his union flag. There's no need for the photographers to ask the Briton to smile. Rutherford is a man who will be smiling from now until Christmas. 

    And he now becomes the fifth Briton to hold all four major titles at the same time, joining Jonathan Edwards, Linford Christie, Sally Gunnell and Daley Thompson. 

  4. 'Greg performed like an Olympic champion'

    It's a great privilege to be here and see Greg Rutherford join the likes Thompson, Christie, Gunnell and Edwards in securing a Grand Slam of titles. He's very good at seizing the opportunity on the biggest stage and performed like an Olympic champion."

  5. 'Rutherford has great gameplan'

    Michael Johnson
    400m world record holder on BBC TV

    He might not come in as the best or favourite, but he comes in with a great gameplan. That's the approach every athlete should take. Greg does that every time. The medals will sort themselves out.

  6. The Rutherford Slam

  7. Mission completed for Rutherford

    "Come on," screams Rutherford, draped in a super-sized union flag, punching his fist as he walks around the track. He puffs out his cheeks, it's as if he can't believe he's now the world, Olympic, European and Commonwealth champion. 

  8. Get involved #bbcathletics

    Sam:  I'm absolutely buzzing for @GregJRutherford what a time to get your seasons best!! Amazing!  

    Grundy:  Yes Greg!!!! Massive 8.41m. Nearly 28 feet. How is it possible to jump that far?

    Daniel Robin Slavin:  So pleased for @GregJRutherford hope that silences the doubters

  9. 'Rutherford wins are not about luck'

    Steve Cram
    BBC athletics commentator

    You cannot keep winning gold medals and be lucky. The Americans didn't do it today, but that's their problem. Nobody should even hint that. On the big day he delivered when others couldn't deliver.

  10. Allison Curbishley
    BBC athletics expert on Radio 5 live

    Winning gold means so much to Greg Rutherford. Only five Britons have done the Grand Slam, he's jumping further now, he's getting quicker and I think going into Rio you would not bet against him."

  11. Rutherford wins world gold

    Someone presents Greg Rutherford with a waistcoat in the union flag colours and the Briton half wears it but decides not to perform his lap of honour looking like a male Ginger Spice. Those are pictures the grandchildren will see, after all. 

  12. 'Great Greg'

    "This will cement his legacy in British sport history. He deserves this win - he's a great jumper."

  13. 'Well done Greg'

    Darren Campbell
    Former British sprinter on BBC Radio 5 live

    Perfect your art and be consistent, that's what you have to do. There's no question that Greg Rutherford is a top athlete. This is no fluke."

  14. Rutherford first Brit to win world long jump gold

    It's just like London 2012 again; Mo Farah, Jessica Ennis-Hill, David Rudisha and now Greg Rutherford win a world title to add to their Olympic crowns. 

    Rutherford's season's best 8.41m was good enough for gold and the Briton points his finger skywards and closes his eyes as he takes in the enormity of his achievement. 

  15. 'Rutherford dominated final'

    Steve Backley
    Four-time European javelin champion on BBC TV

    Rutherford completes his grand slam. A textbook performance and a season's best of 8.41m. He dominated the final and the Americans collapsed.

  16. Rutherford wins long jump gold

    Only China's Jianan Wang can beat Rutherford. Can he? No. The home favourite fouls which means Greg Rutherford becomes world long jump champion. 

  17. 'Majestic Rudisha is back'

    Steve Cram
    BBC athletics commentator & former 800m Commonwealth champion

    Majestic, controlled and dominant. Never as impressive as he was at the Olympics. What he did there was he proved he could win in this way. Rudisha is back and back winning gold medals - a 1:45 race where he still finished with some daylight. It's a surprise.

  18. Rudisha wins 800m gold

    Rudisha stops Amel Tuka from passing him and the Kenyan then sets off coming into the final bend and no-one can stop him. Rudisha - the first man in history to run 800m in under 1:41 - wins in 1:45.84. 

      Silver will go to Poland's Adam Kszczot (1:46.08), with Bosnia'z Amel Tuka winning bronze in 1:46.30.   

    David Rudisha

  19. Rudisha leading...

    David Rudisha likes to run from the front and there's no change of tactic here as the Olympic champion leads as the finalists come out of the first bend. A slo 400m - 54.15 seconds. Has he got a quick enough kick? 

  20. A three-year wait for Rudisha

    Bosnian Amel Tuka won his semi-final, and his time of 1:42.51 set in Monaco last month is the fastest in the world this year.
