China's Yang Qian has been speaking about winning the first gold medal of 2020 Olympics.

Yang came out on top in the women's 10m rifle competition.

"I was really nervous. The competition was really tight, but I'm so happy that I could win," she said.

"We did train how to perform under pressure. The coaches would actually create a nerve-wracking atmosphere and try to pressure us."

The French duo have gone right off the boil in Tokyo, and in a few minutes' time, Andy Murray and Joe Salisbury will serve to knock the second seeds out of the Olympics.

Chris Lord: Feel like he is cursed! Glad Geraint okay though!

Ben Lane and Sean Vendy are in action in the men's doubles.

They've lost their opener in the best-of-three match 21-15 to top seeds Kevin Sanjaya Sukamuljo and Marcus Fernaldi Gideon of Indonesia.

Andy Murray and Joe Salisbury are piling the pressure on Pierre-Hugues Herbert and Nicolas Mahut.

The French duo had to save a break point in their last service game and they've just had to battle from 0-40 down to deuce.

The Brits are nought from six on break points in this set, but finally, Murray makes a big forehand to break and extend their lead to 6-3 3-2.

Geraint Thomas is back on the bike and soldiering on with a cut shoulder and a bloodied arm.

Geraint Thomas looks uninjured - just more irritated.

Looks like a touch of the wheels. Not quite sure who caused it. Just a swerve.

These are often the dangerous moments when people are relaxed. It starts to speed, you've got yourself to the front, then it looks like it's calmed down and then something like this happens - a silly little crash.

Laura: I've committed to watching the whole 6 hours of the men's road cycling. The scenery is just breathtaking, not that this is their priority.

It is almost identical to the crash he had in the Tour de France. No pressure on at all, everybody widely spaced and then something happens when it's least expected.

It's going to be some chase as well...

Crash!

Geraint Thomas is involved and so too Tao Geoghegan Hart.

Both riders are back on their bikes and fighting their way back to the peloton.

Thomas has torn Lycra.

We saw Max Whitlock's daughter Willow cheering on her dad earlier on and now it's the turn of Adam Peaty's mum, Caroline, to show her support.

"So proud to have been part of your journey," she tweeted.

Peaty competes in the men's 100m breaststroke heats at 12:40 BST.

Team GB rower Joshua Bugajski is not happy and finishing third in the men's eight behind the Netherlands and New Zealand.

Men's artistic gymnastics team qualification

Great Britain's men will get their artistic team bid under way from 06:30 BST.

Many of the gymnasts couldn't attend last night's opening ceremony, so the US men and women's team held their own instead...

Kyle Utterson: Great coverage guys making my nightshift fly by well done keep up the great work. Very tiring even in the middle of the night. So much great live sport though so lucky in that sense but gutted for the Japanese fans missing out on seeing it live.

You get the feeling now that teams are starting to get a little bit uncomfortable about this gap - but nobody wants to do the chasing.

There is such limit resource in terms of troops to use at this stage of the race, there is no strategic value, other than to control the breakaway. Nobody wants to commit resources in bringing it under control.

They are starting to feel uncomfortable but equally don't want to think about it.

Well then!

A crunching serve out wide from Andy Murray is larruped long, and Sir Muzza and Joe Salisbury take the first set 6-3 over second seeds Pierre-Hugues Herbert and Nicolas Mahut!

There's a traditional Murray wave of the fist towards the GB coaching team as he and Salisbury head back to their chairs.

The eight-strong breakaway pack has opened up a lead of more than 17 minutes on the first climb heading up towards Doshi Road, with South Africa, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Romania, Greece, Venezuela, Burkina Faso and Azerbaijan all represented in that group.

Namibia's Tristan De Lange has set off from the peloton in a bid to join that leading group, with the race having just passed the 60km mark in the foothills of Mount Fuji.
