"There's no easy way to win an Olympic medal. 12 hour days. Six days a week. 80km a week. There are no shortcuts. You've just got to give it everything."

BBC Sport Wales spent the day with new silver medalist Jazz Carlin as she plotted her Olympic journey to Rio following heartbreak in London.

How about breaking the world record to become the first woman from your country to win swimming gold?

That's exactly what Sarah Sjostrom did n the 100m butterfly final last night.

We have four medals to come in the pool. First race is at 02:03 BST.

Could Usain Bolt ever beat Michael Johnson in a fantasy race over 200m?

"I would have been first," Johnson said. "He thinks the time would have been 19.01 or 19.02. I think we would have been around 18.99, so we differ on that - but we both agree that we each would have won!"

Usain Bolt has told people to "have faith" in athletics, but says he cannot be sure if his Olympic sprint rivals are drug-free.

The run-up to the Games was dominated by Russia's doping scandal, while American rivals Justin Gatlin and LaShawn Merritt have served drug bans.

Six-time Olympic champion Bolt is aiming to retain his 100m, 200m, and 4x100m relay titles in Rio.

"I think we're going in the right direction," said the Jamaican, 29.

"People should have faith. I think we're weeding out the bad ones."

GB's Louis Smith falls

Here's the moment that Team GB lost out on a medal after Louis Smith fell in the men's team gymnastics final. 

Good to know we are in good company tonight.

In all the excitement, our favourite baroness said out, rather than put. But I think we'll let that go for an 11-time Paralympic gold medal winner. Enjoy, Tanni, Enjoy.

By my maths I make it that there are still five medals to be won before we all go to bed tonight.

The last medal comes at 03:36 BST. Who's with us?

Top Trevor: 5 wins & 3 defeats for Team GB boxers at #Rio2016, external. 3 defeats all came today. Bruising day but still hopeful of medals!

Seven or eight years ago Okolie was bordering on obese. Then he found boxing, then he found Anthony Joshua as a friend. It has been an impressive short journey. 

The best you can do is fight the best you can in your career and that is was he did tonight. He fought the man who will be in the final, and might just win gold.

Serena Williams was knocked out last night alongside sister Venus, but back in the singles Serena has just taken the first set against Alize Cornet.

You can watch the tennis here. 

That's the bell for the end of the third round and Lawrence Okolie will be going out in the last 16 at Rio.

He deserves incredible credit for recovering from being floored within the first seconds against an esteemed opponent.

And it's official, Erislandy Savon of Cuba progresses to the quarter-finals on points.

Tom Daley is everywhere in Tuesday's newspapers. 

Better from Lawrence Okolie, he got right into Erislandy Savon's face and had him moving more. It came at the cost of receiving a few blows though and this Cuban has plenty of experience - the judges have given Savon the round.

Okolie needs something special in the final round.
