What to expect from the Scots on Sunday at the Olympics
- Published
After medals in rowing on day eight, Sunday is expected to be a quieter affair for the Scots representing Team GB at the Olympics.
Much of the focus will be on the athletics at Stade de France, where Josh Kerr, Neil Gourley, and Jemma Reekie are all in semi-finals action.
Anna Burnett and her team-mate John Gimson also continue their mixed multihull campaign down in Marseille.
Here's what to expect.

Which Scots are competing & when?
It was a serene start to the athletics for Scotland's middle distance runners on Friday as they largely cruised through their heats.
World 1500m champion Kerr stayed well back before taking victory in his race courtesy of a searing final lap.
He mentioned staying away from any trouble as being key to achieving what he wants - a gold medal.
That will be the plan again as he aims to make it through the tricky semi-final stage.
Gourley had a slightly tougher time as he had to step up the gears to finish fifth and make it to the next round.
The Glasgow runner admitted he will need to be "tactically sharper" as he looks to make the most of his fitness and form having won the British title.
The 1500m semi-finals get under way at 20:10 BST.
Reekie also won her 800m heat comfortably but professed herself unhappy with her race having come home in two minutes dead.
The 26-year-old will target something more akin to the personal best of one minute 55.61 seconds she ran at the London Diamond League a few weeks ago.
The women's 800m semi-finals start at 19:35 with the final on Monday night.
Tokyo silver medallist Laura Muir does not start her 1500m campaign until Tuesday morning.
Away from the athletics and off the south coast of France, Burnett and Gimson head into the next three races of the mixed multihull Nacra sailing (first race at 11:05).
The British pair, who earned silver three years ago, are in sixth place overall after the first three races. The top ten teams after 12 races will compete for medals on 7 August.
