    Men's trap final

    Matthew Coward-Holley is guaranteed a medal.

    Jorge Orozco Diaz is the fourth man eliminated in the men's trap final - a real collapse from the Mexican after he hit his first 19 targets to lead the way early doors.

    So which colour will Coward-Holley's medal be?

    China's Yu Haicheng's race is run, he's out with 24/30.

    GB's Matthew Coward-Holley remains third. He's on 25/30 but the gold medal he craves is edging away because he's three shots adrift of leader David Kostelecky.

    Matthew Coward-Holley is hitting his stride now in the men's trap final.

    He hit 14 targets in a row to recover from 7/10 to 21/24 before missing his final shot of the fifth round.

    But 21 is more than enough to progress to the next stage as Kuwait's Abdulrahman Al Faihan is the man to bow out on 18.

    Coward-Holley sits in the bronze medal position, one behind Mexicao's Jorge Orozco Diaz and two behind leader David Kostelecky of the Czech Republic. But a long way to go yet.

    Casey, 44, carded a four-under 67 and is four behind early clubhouse leader Sepp Straka, who is two shots clear of Belgium's Thomas Pieters and Mexico's Carlos Ortiz.

    Tommy Fleetwood, Britain's other representative in the men's event, was two-under after 13 holes when play was suspended, with Irish playing partner Shane Lowry two shots behind.

    Lowry's team-mate Rory McIlroy was one under after 13, as was Open champion Collin Morikawa of the United States.

    BBC Radio 5 Live

    Before Mallory Franklin starts her bid for an Olympic medal, BBC Radio 5live spoke to her fiancé Ciaran Lee Edwards.

    The pair met 'on a riverbank in Wales' when they were eight or nine years old, before getting together when they were just 14!

    On being asked about how he feels he said: " I woke up the morning of the opening ceremony and I had that knot you talk about but the way that Mallory paddled yesterday in qualification, showed confidence that she's in really good shape and she's looking really good on the water. In slalom anything can happen in a final. Once you're there, anyone is capable of a medal so it's just about beating the forces as best as you can.

    "We've got our fingers crossed that Mallory can go out their and enjoy her final and paddle like how we know she can."

    Slovakia's Monika Skachova was the slowest through the semi-finals and so is first out of the blocks in the canoe slalom final.

    She won't be troubling the podium.

    Six penalty seconds have torpedoed her chances.

    Britain's Franklin was sixth fastest in the semis so is fifth to go...

    Women's canoe is making its Olympic debut and we could just have a British winner of the first golden gong.

    Mallory Franklin got into the sport after a childhood trip to Windsor Leisure Centre to entertain her “overactive” older brother. In 2018, Franklin won a record eight individual and three team medals in one season, however she will have to take down red-hot favourite Jessica Fox of Australia if she wants to add Olympic gold to her collection.

    There might not be any British interest left in the Tokyo tennis events, but that doesn't mean it is worth forgetting about.

    Today is semi-finals day in the women's singles, while men's world number one Novak Djokovic continues his bid for a 'Golden Slam'.

    Opening up on Centre Court today is Swiss ninth seed Belinda Bencic and 15th seed Elena Rybakina.

    Bencic broke for a 2-1 lead before Rybakina fought back to lead 5-2, although the Kazakh was unable to serve out for the first set. It's back on serve at 5-4.

    Over on court one, France's Ugo Humbert leads 4-3 against Russian Karen Khachanov with both players still on serve.

    A disappointing second round in the men's trap final for Matthew Coward-Holley - he missed two of the five in that round.

    That drops him to joint fourth out of the six finalists with seven out of 10 thus far.

    Mexico's Jorge Orozco Diaz has been flawless, hitting all 10 targets, and he leads the way.

    After 25 targets, one competitor is eliminated and then we continue with the remaining five.

    Mark Chapman and Rachel Burden caught up with social media's most-talked about new pundit Lutalo Muhammad on BBC Radio 5live this morning.

    On the reaction he has received, he said: "It's been very flattering and I really appreciate the lovely support I've received. I just really wanted to do my sport justice and hopefully communicate it over well to the general public. Taekwondo is still a minority sport in this country, although we are very good at it as a nation! As we saw, two silvers and a bronze. The guys did their job, they gave me something to talk about so that's what I'm grateful for. "

    Asked if he's always been so calm, he replied: " Yes, I think it's something I've got from my dad. Going to tournaments, I used to be super nervous, I actually used to throw up before the match! So getting on top of my nerves and learning how to be calm in stressful situations is just something I've got better and better at over the years. So I guess that came across in my punditry, definitely a skill I've learned over the years in my time in martial arts."

    Great Britain's Matt Coward-Holley, the reigning world and European champion, give the crowd a cheery wave and grin.

    Good to put the public at ease when you have a gun slung over your shoulder I find.

    Jiri Liptak, the Czech, is the first of the six men to take aim. And it is a miss...
