Gymnastics - pommel horse final
Sonia Oxley
BBC Sport in Paris
You've got to hope the gymnasts don't listen to the arena announcements much - probably not what you want to hear before you get on the pommel horse... "One slight hand misplacement and they are off the apparatus".
Whitlock scores 15.200published at 16:50 British Summer Time 3 August
Gymnastics - pommel horse final
The speed, the execution, the circles - they're all on show. Max Whitlock is going well on the pommel horse but can he keep the momentum? Yes he can. Will it be enough to beat the opening score by Nariman Kurbanov of 15.433?
No! The GB gymnast is awarded 15.200 and goes into the silver medal spot.

Gymnastics - pommel horse final
Sonia Oxley
BBC Sport in Paris
Gosh, it has gone very quiet at the Bercy Arena. Vault is one of the apparatus where you can roar the gymnasts up the runway - but pommel is the opposite, complete concentration and silence. Quite a contrast.

It was a very measured very controlled performance from Nariman Kurbanov. Some really good original work.

Patrick Branchfield: Wishing Max Whitlock success this afternoon with every fibre in my body. If any athlete has represented his country with grace and determination over the years, it is this man. You deserve success mate, but the nation is incredibly proud and grateful regardless.

Max Whitlock got a huge cheer as he was presented for what will be his final appearance before he retires. He has said all long he is trying to savour every last moment of his final Games and he takes time to absorb the noise.
He will be the second gymnast to perform in this pommel horse final.

That's that!
Well the United States needed extra time to get it done but they were able to hang on after Trinity Rodman's brilliant strike in the 107th minute.
The United States are going for a fifth Olympic gold medal and a first since London 2012.
Emma Hayes' side will face Canada or Germany, who play later today, in the semi-final.

Sully: Puncture. Drama. Gold!! Wow.
A day’s worth of cycling and you get a puncture 3.4 kilometres from the finish line, your heart would sink! Evenepoel had done the work, built a lead, so even a flat tyre can’t prevent him from winning gold.

Chris Boardman
Olympic cycling champion on BBC TV
Evenepoel rode the field off his wheel there. He tried earlier on with 40km plus to go, snd everyone just followed him but once they got onto the circuit, it was Mathieu van de Poele who did the job for him.
He whittled down the groups and rode away to take gold.

North Korea's An Chang-ok briefly led the contest
Only at the Olympics would you ever expect to see representatives of North Korea, South Korea and the United States happily sharing a platform – and even giving each other the odd clap.
But that’s what I’ve just seen in the gymnastics arena, where the North came up against its twin adversaries in the women’s vault final.
North Korea’s An Chang-ok briefly led the contest with a confident performance, before being overtaken by Simone Biles and others and narrowly losing out on a bronze.
An applauded her victorious American rival, waved for cameras and even hugged one or two of the other women – rare interactions with the outside world by an athlete likely to be carefully chaperoned in Paris.
Moments like these – and the table tennis selfie taken by athletes from the North and South earlier in the week – are what experts like to call “sporting diplomacy”.
Journalist Jean H Lee, the host of BBC podcast The Lazarus Heist, told me it was “remarkable” to see North Koreans return to the global stage after the country’s particularly pronounced period of isolation and animosity with the South.
The secretive state sealed itself off during the pandemic and was not represented at the Games in Tokyo in 2021.

Trinity Rodman curls an absolute beauty into the top left corner in the 107th minute against Japan and the deadlock is finally broken.
We've still got the second half of extra time to come. Can Emma Hayes' side hold on?

Belgium's Remco Evenepoel survives a late puncture to secure a dominant victory in the Olympic men's road and add to the gold medal he won in the time trial seven days ago.
The 2022 world champion becomes the first man to win both road cycling events at the same Games.
