    Her season's best of 4.65m is down on the very best in the world - Jennifer Suhr has cleared 5.03m this year. The men's vault final was up there with the highlights of the Games. Can the women deliver?

    The Estadio Olimpico has the air this evening of a party that no-one wants to end. It will be the last time we see Usain Bolt at an Olympics, and while the night has a celebratory air, it will be tinged with a little inevitable sadness too.

    Gold for GB

    Great Britain captain Kate Richardson-Walsh on BBC TV: “It is very special. To see Helen go through double back surgery, the strength and resilience she has shown resonates through the whole squad.

    “It honestly and truly comes from every single person in this squad. Everyone who touches this squad has it and it is infectious. We wanted to be the difference, create history and inspire the future and we have done it."

    Asked about her future in the sport, she said: “This is it, 100 per cent. We are going to retire as reigning Olympic champions and it is a good way to go out.”
