    Women's 200m final

    Will it be a 100m-200m sprint double for Elaine Thompson-Herah against fellow Jamaican Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce?

    Thompson-Herah has already beaten her compatriot to the 100m title and was the fastest qualifier from the semi-finals in Tokyo, but she hasn’t earned a global podium in four 200m subsequent attempts since her Rio 2016 gold.

    'I was so focused on not coming last' - Alex Bellpublished at 13:44 British Summer Time 3 August 2021

    Women's 800m final

    Team GB 800m finalists, Jemma Reekie and Alex Bell spoke with Jeanette Kwakye track side:

    Jemma Reekie: "I knew I was in good shape, and I knew if I executed the race I could have been up there. I wanted to win, but sometimes you have to learn and Paris isn't too far away.

    "I obviously wanted to do better, I am going to be hard on myself because I came here to win but I think I will look back in a few years time and realise how well I have done.

    Alex Bell: "I grabbed the opportunity with both hands and I just rolled with it. I think it was a PB I got there, which I am delighted with.

    "Racing hard for the last few days, I didn't know if I would be able to PB coming into the final, but my coaches coached me well and I got a PB out of it.

    "I was so focused on not coming last, I wasn't even bothered about the time until I finished the race. When you focus on the race, the time will follow.

    'It is going to take a couple of days to sink in'published at 13:42 British Summer Time 3 August 2021

    Women's 800m final

    Olympic silver medallist Keely Hodgkinson spoke to Jeanette Kwakye following her performance in the women's 800m final:

    "I think it is just one of those things where you know something like that is possible but whether it comes out you just don't know, it was such a good race. Every single person, it was so open. I wanted to put it all out there and I did that, it is going to take a couple of days to sink in.

    "I am pretty speechless right now, Kelly Holmes is a legend and I looked up to her. I have been speaking to her for the past couple of days and she is a lovely person. I want to thank my amazing team, my family who have made so many sacrifices for me.

    "I did it."

    Keely Hodgkinson's silver medal is Team GB's first podium place on the track at Tokyo 2020.

    Keely Hodgkinson is absolutely hilarious.

    She steps up for her BBC TV interview with Jeanette Kwakye, who repeats back to the teenager that she is the Olympic 800m silver medallist.

    "That is absolutely mental," she says before tearing up.

    We'll bring you more of that interview ASAP.

    That look on Keely Hodgkinson's face, she has just seen the clock. She has just seen 1.55.88 a national record, Kelly Holmes' record has gone and what a way.

    My hands were on my head when she went on the inside with 200 metres to go, but then the way that she saw that path through, at the start of the straight and then closed out so strong.

    Keely Hodgkinson looks absolutely astounded. The 19-year-old has had an incredible breakthrough season.

    Back in June, she shocked people by winning the British trials. Now look what she's done.

    Quite understandably, she expresses her surprise with some words we won't repeat here...

    It is elation for Hodgkinson in a national record of 1:55.88, but heartbreak for Jemma Reekie as she is run out of the bronze medal position by Raevyn Rogers.

    American Athing Mu took gold in a personal best of 1:55.21.

    GB's Harry Coppell has already set a new season's best with his clearance of 5.80m in the men's pole vault final.

    He goes to break his own British record of 5.85m, but he runs through at 5.87m.

    There's still a way to go inside the Olympic Stadium. All eyes are on world record holder Armand Duplantis.
