    I still believe Team GB have more to offer in this final and will be riding a schedule hotter than the last round.

    Women's team pursuit final

    Well they finish that, the British women get ready for the team pursuit final. They broke the world record earlier today but we're expecting a close race between them and the Americans.

    Katie Archibald, Elinor Barker, Joanna Rowsell Shand and Laura Trott, the latter looking to become the first British woman to win three Olympic gold medals.

    Del Potro takes a gulp of something watery. Two games ago he was serving to win the match. Now he's serving to stay in it. Remember, women's team pursuit final up at 21:14.

    Houdini Nadal gets out of a stickier spot than when Sticky the Stick Insect got stuck on a sticky bun. Del Potro must serve to stay in it. Remember, the prize is a final against Andy Murray.

    Two pairs of eyes needed here. The women's team pursuit final is up at 21:14. Nadal and Del Potro should be done by then. Maybe...
