    USA's defending champion Alexandra Raisman gets a 15.500 to move into second and shove GB's Amy Tinkler down into third.

    One gymnast still to go - Tinkler stands up to get a good look at Italy's Vanessa Ferrari.

    I hear she's got quite the motor on her.

    I'll get this in before Amy Tinkler learns her fate.

    This is what Giles Scott's gold medal in the finn has done to the medal table.

    Now then. GB's Amy Tinkler is in silver position with three women still to perform.

    One of them is Switzerland's Giulia Steingruber - but she had a wobble in that routine and should trouble little Tinkler.

    Nope - it's 11.800.

    There are two more women to challenge Tinkler's 14.933 - next up is the defending champion.

    A tantalising match-up in the men's water polo quarter-finals is under way, with hosts Brazil playing Croatia for a place in the semis.

    Croatia are the defending champions from London 2012, while Brazil are appearing in their first Olympics since Atlanta 1984. 

    Add to this the fact that Brazil coach Ratko Rudic was at the helm of Croatia during that Olympic victory and a healthy spectator turn out, and there's plenty of subplots to keep this one interesting.

    After waiting 12 years for Sir Ben Ainslie to shuffle aside and finally let someone else have a go, waiting three days to get your hands on a gold medal is probably not too big a deal.

    Well done Giles Scott.

    That's 17 golds for Great Britain now.

    There have been 28 attempts on goal but neither keeper has to make a great save. 

    With seconds of normal time remaining, Swedish keeper Helvig Lindahl made a good stop on the line to block Formiga's header from a free-kick.

    Brazil's Cristiane, 31, who has 14 goals in Olympic competition comes on as an  extra-time substitution.

    The British are fans ecstatic and so am I.

    Giles Scott deserves this more than anything in the world. He and his coach have not put a foot wrong over four years.

    He didn't leave anything to chance. A difficult first race but he was able to fight back.

    More history made as Tina Turner's 'Simply the best' blasts out on the packed beach. 

    After letting out an almighty roar, Australia's Tom Burton breaks free of the course to salute his fans. He's won Laser gold on his Olympic debut. 

    His parents Lynne and Peter weren't sure of the final result at first, but were jumping for joy when it was confirmed. "We came here expecting gold, but when it happened the feeling was unbelievable," says Peter. 

    After Nick Thompson's disappointing finish in the Laser, British fans are now enjoying the Finn race where Giles 'Great' Scott is already a gold medallist in the making.
