    That's all Jack Laugher can do.

    He gets 87.75 and moves up to the gold medal position but he won't stay there.

    The question is whether he can keep hold of second place. The Chinese duo are up next...

    I am afraid James Heatly did not start very well today and then you put so much pressure on yourself if you don't get the first two rounds correct.

    But he has done a great job to get into the final.

    Right, here we go.

    James Heatly from Great Britain will perform his final dive then it's over to Jack Laugher.

    He's right up there for a silver medal.

    Well what about that. Australian trio Matthew Richardson, Nathan Hart and Matthew Glaetzer set a new Olympic record of 42.371.

    Netherlands up next...the world champs who red-hot favourites for gold.

    Pick the bones out of that! 94.35, incredible.

    Japan's Ken Terauchi, 40, competes his final dive in what will undoubtedly be his final Olympic Games.

    Remarkable. He ends on a high too. That's a decent score of 74.40 and it's his best of the day.

    He's warmly applauded by the other divers and coaches. Lovely touch.

    The Russian Olympic Committee team, aided by three-time European champion Denis Dmitriev, lower the mark set by Poland.

    They've posted a very competitive 43.097 seconds.

    Next up are Germany who finish in 43.140.

    Well done Jack Laugher, that is a tremendous front four-and-a-half in the tuck position. He is not messing around.

    Sailing have been picking up medals and I can tell you that diving is definitely coming away with one today. That is an absolute corker.

    A golden morning in the water. Here's Giles Scott defending the Finn class gold medal he won in Rio five years ago.

    Jack Laugher is on course to add another medal in the diving. Can he move up to second?

    Katie Archibald has done more than her fair share of the effort, I feel like she has done slightly longer turns on the track.

    When she gets to the front you can see the team surge forward so timing her impact is crucial.

    This is stunning diving from China's Xie Siyi.

    He is almost certainly winning gold now so it's a tussle for silver and bronze between GB's Jack Laugher and China's Wang Zongyuan.

    GB's James Heatly has moved up to seventh. He's improving as the final goes on.

    Jack Laugher is well on course to pick up another medal. He pulls off a 96.90 in his latest dive.

    He's smiling slightly. He's still on course for third though as Wang Zongyuan nips in front again.

    GB just took a cheeky three seconds off the world record.

    You could see they were not on schedule yesterday, their coach was moving back and forward and waving arms around.

    Today was very calm and controlled, this is more representative of what they are capable of.
