    That's enormous! Tentoglou saved his best for this final round. He needed to tidy it up and he has. Fantastic jump from the Greek athlete.

    That's it! Greece's Miltiadis Tentoglou takes the gold with that final leap. What a finish!

    Cuba's Juan Miguel Echevarria sets off down the runway for his final attempt but pulls up before the take-off board with an injury and punches the floor in frustration. He must settle for silver, while Maykel Masso - out of contention after picking up an injury earlier on - gets bronze.

    American JuVaughn Harrison can't deny Eusebio Caceres the bronze.

    Next up it's Greece's Miltiadis Tentoglou for his last chance of getting a medal...

    That's huge!!

    A jump of 8.41m puts him into the lead, ahead of Juan Miguel Echevarria on his second-best jump.

    That means Echevarria just needs to beat the Greek's second best jump of 8.15m for gold.

    Great Britain’s Mills and Eilidh McIntyre are first after eight races, with two races to go before the all-important medal race on Wednesday.

    They'll be back in action at 04:05 BST this morning.

    Another gold for Mills to add to the one she won with Saskia Clark in 2016 and her London 2012 silver would make her the most successful female sailor in Olympic history

    Argentina strolled into the last four of the women's hockey tournament with a straightforward victory over a disappointing Germany.

    Augustina Alberttario and Victoria Granatto scored late in the second quarter to put the South American side in charge and Valentina Raposo's clinical strike from a penalty corner in the final quarter settled the match.

    It was 18-year-old Raposo's second goal in the tournament, in her eighth international appearance.

    Argentina's Maria Sussi made an incredible triple save late on to deny the Germans a consolation.
