The second round of dives in the men's 3m springboard has just been completed at the Tokyo Aquatics Centre.

Briton Jack Laugher is handily placed in eighth spot with a combined score of 142.80 while compatriot Tom Heatly is in 20th after his total of 125.50.

There are four more rounds to go and the top 18 divers will head through to the semi-finals.

The track cycling is under way in the Izu Velodrome. Qualifying for the women's team sprint is currently taking place, although there is no British representation.

Qualifying for the women's team pursuit begins in five minutes and four-time Olympic champion Laura Kenny is part of the British team for that.

You can watch it live on BBC One now or by clicking on the play icon above.

After deciding not to compete in the 800m, Laura Muir is now chasing that medal-winning feeling and the British runner said she is "more prepared than ever" after easing through the Tokyo 2020 1500m heats in her pursuit of a first Olympic medal.

The Scot clocked four minutes 3.89 seconds to finish second, with six athletes from each heat progressing to the semi-finals.

In a dramatic moment, world 1500m champion Sifan Hassan fell with 400m to go but won her heat in 4:05.17.

Great Britain's Katie Snowden qualified sixth in her heat in 4:02.77 but Revee Walcott-Nolan came seventh to miss out.

Walcott-Nolan's 4:06.23 was a PB but left her seventh in the list of fastest losers, with six going through. Kenya's Faith Kipyegon - the Olympic champion - clocked the quickest time overall with 4:01.40.

It was the most nervous I have ever been - Whitlockpublished at 07:39 British Summer Time 2 August 2021

More from three-time Olympic gold medallist Max Whitlock, on his nerves and the pressure he was under: "It was the most nervous I have ever been going into any competition in my life. I think that was for two reasons mainly, for the expectations. Once you win a gold, people expect you to win a gold in Tokyo, which is difficult. You want to try to do that.

"But I think the biggest pressure was from myself. Seeing the GB athletes coming back with gold medals around their neck, you could kind of relate to it because I had done it in Rio. I knew what that feeling was like and I really wanted to try to get that feeling again for myself. I think that piled the pressure on myself massively. The nerves kicked in massively but I was so happy to pull it off.

"A lot of people look at it like, if you have done it before, it is easier to do it again. They think 'if you have done it before, the next one is a bonus', but actually it is the complete opposite most of the time. That is why you will see so many athletes who are the favourites to win, not perform because the pressure is unbelievable. Coming up through the career I have had I feel very grateful to be in the position to retain titles. But when you are chasing you have nothing to lose at all, you can go all out. If you get an amazing result then it is incredible, if you don't, you try again next time."

I feel like there's still more in the tank - Whitlockpublished at 07:30 British Summer Time 2 August 2021

Max Whitlock has now won medals at three Olympics, and the 28-year-old is already thinking about competing at Paris 2024: "I have long-term targets. I'd love to make four Olympic Games. I'm very proud to have made my third here in Tokyo and to bring back the result feels amazing.

"I feel like there's still more in the tank and I want to prove that. I'll take some time off and I literally can't wait to get home, see everyone that supported me, take some time off and then slowly get back into training."

And Max Whitlock was asked about fellow Olympic champion Adam Peaty announcing he's taking a break from swimming: "I 100% support it. I think people are being more open on how they feel and making decisions based on what's right for them. That's definitely a decision that Simone Biles made for herself.

"Sport is dangerous, every sport has its own dangers. Gymnastics is dangerous - Simone said she was having mental blocks which can become really dangerous. I think Adam Peaty and Simone will agree that hitting the results after previously hitting your career highs is 10 times harder, going on to achieve more. Chasing is 10 times easier. The pressure you put on your shoulders yourself - you're expected to bring back a gold if you've done it before. Mentally, that's really hard.

"I think a lot of people are realising it's OK to speak up if they're not feeling great. Because people like Adam and Simone have done what they've done, people are feeling like they can listen to themselves and their own bodies."

Greysia Polii and Apriyani Rahayu of Indonesia have won the women's doubles gold medal in badminton, leaving China's Chen Qing Chen and Jia Yi Fan with the silver after a match that ended 21-19 21-15.

Earlier, world number five pair Kim Soyeong and Kong Heeyong of South Korea won the women's doubles bronze medal.

Life as the defending champion is something Adam Peaty has been used to for quite a while now. And now the British swimmer is taking a month-long break from the sport to protect his mental health and recharge before a push for more success in 2022.

Peaty retained his men's 100m breaststroke title on the way to two golds and a silver at Tokyo 2020.

The 26-year-old has referenced the struggles of American gymnast Simone Biles and England cricketer Ben Stokes as reasons to strike a balance.

"It isn't a normal job. There is a huge amount of pressure," Peaty said.

"I'm taking a break because I've been going extremely hard for as long as I can remember. I've averaged two weeks off a year for the last seven years."

More now from Max Whitlock: "That was my first time ever competing first up in a pommel horse final so it was a different experience. Usually Scott (Hann, coach) watches the competitors before me and we have three levels of difficulty to prepare for - then he tells me which one I should do.

"This time was different - first man up. I had to go all in. It was the biggest routine I'd ever completed before, which made the risk extremely high. I knew that. If I performed a clean routine I knew I'd be in with a shot of getting a title, but completing it was the hard part and I did that.

"It was the first time I'd ever watched a full pommel live. I usually just focus on myself and my job. I sat and thought: 'If someone beats me, then the better man has won'. I had done everything I could. It was one of the cleanest routines I've done throughout this whole build-up. I couldn't have done more. Whether I got bronze, silver or gold, I was pleased with my performance. It was tough, though, it was nerve-wracking."

Whitlock 'massively, massively pleased' with winning routinepublished at 07:07 British Summer Time 2 August 2021

Pommel horse champion Max Whitlock on BBC One: "That's the first time I've watched my routine back and it was really nice to watch it. I don't watch my routines back too much in competition, I watch them back in training to help improve. In competition, there's not much more I can do, there's nothing I can improve, that job's done. I'm massively, massively pleased with that.

"That morning and afternoon before my routine was tough. About 6:45 in the evening when I was due to march out for that pommel final, throughout that day, nerves built and built. Doubt sets in. I was thinking about the routine, parts where I'm more likely to make mistakes than others, but also thinking about parts that could hopefully go well. That's literally going back and forth in my head the whole day.

"It's important for me to spend that day doing what I normally do - making sure I recover, making sure I was icing. Every little one percent to make sure my head was in the right place. Then I talk to my family before I start, and I start warming up like it's a normal training day as much as I can."

Max Whitlock is currently talking to Dan Walker on Olympic Breakfast, but before we see what the three-time Olympic champion has to say, let me tell you what you've missed so far on day 10.

• British pair Laura Muir and Katie Snowden safely progressed to the semi-finals of the women's 1500m, while world champion Sifan Hassan recovered from a fall to win her heat
• Beth Dobbin is into the women's 200m semi-finals after finishing second in her heat, ahead of Jamaica's Elaine Thompson-Herah, but 100m bronze medallist Shericka Jackson has missed out
• Briton Nick Miller has made the hammer final

• Greece's Miltiadis Tentoglou prevailed in a dramatic final round of the men's long jump final, claiming gold with his final leap
• Jasmine Camacho-Quinn won Puerto Rico's first ever track and field gold in the women's 100m hurdles final
• GB's Deborah Kerr has qualified for the women's kayak single 200m semi-finals

Hannah Mills and Laura Kenny have already had to cope with coming back to the Games as the defending Olympic champion.

So too Max Whitlock in Tokyo, and he passed the test with flying colours.

Click below to watch how Whitlock defended his Olympic pommel horse title, performing the first routine in the final and setting a mark that his rivals could not match.

So where does that leave us? What's the next action to look forward to?

It'll be at the Izu Velodrome as the track cycling programme begins, and GB's four-time Olympic champion Laura Kenny is set to feature as the team sprint and team pursuit qualifying races take place.

Turns out there won't be any medal races in the sailing today... in fact, there won't be any sailing at all.

Today's action has been postponed to Tuesday. It's just not windy enough at the Enoshima Yachting Harbour.

World Sailing has previously said that winds of at least six knots would be necessary to ensure fair competition.

Before today's two medal races are able to take place in the sailing, they have to wrap up the opening series of the 470 classes.

Two top-10 results on Sunday left Luke Patience and Chris Grube fourth in the men's class while Hannah Mills and Eilidh McIntyre moved top of the women's 470 rankings after finishing first and third.

Racing with Saskia Clark at the last two Games, Mills won gold in 2016 and silver in 2012. And besides getting ready for her title defence, the 33-year-old has been on a mission to help the environment by taking on a plastic pledge.

Cheers Harry, I see there's been plenty of action overnight. Sadly no British medals to report on just yet though.

Where will the first one come on day 10? We were hoping in the sailing but today's start has been delayed.

Right, it's time for me to hand over to Ben Collins to guide you through the next phase of today's action. Thanks for your company and interactions overnight!

It's a rest day in the boxing so there'll be no action at the Ryogoku Kokugikan today.

Frazer Clarke was the latest Briton to secure a medal yesterday, while Ben Whittaker ensured he'll be coming home with at least a silver after winning in the light heavyweight semi-finals.

They'll be back in the ring on Tuesday, when Pat McCormack will be going for gold against Cuba's Roniel Iglesias in the men's welterweight final.

I heard Lutalo Muhammad chatting with Mark Chapman on BBC Radio 5 Live last week. Plenty of listeners had got in touch, some saying he should branch out into reading bedtime stories.

The former taekwondo medallist is also a boxing fan so there was a suggestion he should get involved with the last few days of the boxing programme.

Lutalo's calm, dulcet tones beside the energy and enthusiasm of Steve Bunce, they would make for quite a combo. I'd definitely be tuning in!
