If you want a tip for tomorrow's men's 100m final, you could do worse than asking the producers of Sportsworld, who did this podcast with new 100m women's champion Julien Alfred last week.

Julien describes just how tough the pathway to the top of the sport can be. She explains how hard it was relocating to Jamaica as a young teenager in order to join a coaching group. We also gain a real insight into the role of her coach, Edrick Floreal, and the value he places on supporting his athletes – not just on the track, but in terms of their mental wellbeing.

Leon Marchand and Katie Ledecky have grabbed a lot of the headlines so far in the pool in Paris but Canada’s Summer McIntosh has been just as deserving of the spotlight.

Three golds, four medals and two Olympic records … and she is only 17!

McIntosh set an Olympic record tonight in the 200m individual medley, adding to record she set earlier in the week in the 200m butterfly.

She won a dominant 400m individual medley gold on day three and silver in the 400m freestyle on day one.

McIntosh has been gradually stamping her mark on swimming since she made her Olympic debut at just 14 in Tokyo in 2021.

She’s a four-time world champion and won six medals at the last Commonwealth games when she was just 15.

It’s perhaps no surprise she’s pretty handy in the pool. He mum Jill represented Canada at the 1984 Olympic Games in Los Angeles and he sister Brooke competed at the 2020 Winter Youth Olympic Games in figure skating.

And one of her heroes is American swimming legend Michael Phelps. Mikey, the family's pet cat, is named after the 23-time Olympic champion.

Another nice moment in the medal ceremony, as Katie Ledecky brings compatriot and bronze medallist Paige Madden up on to the podium with her for the national anthem in the women's 800m freestyle medal ceremony.

I wasn't into these mixed races at all when they were first brought in but it's actually the best event on the programme, it is absolute chaos personified.

I thought that for all my money that USA were going to run away with that but what a meet China are having, they gave it absolutely everything.

Brilliant, brilliant race.

Matthew Silk: Wrong tactics from the mixed relay swimming team

Paul Williams: We were never going to defend our title. Man,man woman, woman seems to be the way to go. Having man on the breaststroke is important

That was a great swim from America. Gretchen Walsh and Torri Huske making the most of the lead that Ryan Murphy and Nic Finke had given them.

Commentator and former Olympic swimmer on BBC TV

China and USA are right on Team GB's world record here and I think it might well go.

It's USA versus China on the final leg. Great Britain hold the world record in this event but is it going to go tonight?

China are now leading the USA team with France sitting in the bronze medal position.

But never count out the Americans. Here they come again...

"Allez! Allez! Allez!" greets Leon Marchand every time he puts his head above water in the second leg.

He's not had it all his own way, though, touching home third with two to go...

I know that they get the calculator out to see who swims which leg but did the team factor in the waves that Kathleen Dawson could have to battle with men either side of her? That could be huge.

Kathleen Dawson is on the first leg for Great Britain but it's the Americans who are leading this mixed relay final.

The crowd are making noise. It must only mean one thing: Leon Marchand.

Rebecca Adlington
Double Olympic gold-medal winning swimmer on BBC TV

It is going to be tight tonight, it is going to be very difficult. As long as the British team get in there and out in a good race, I think that is all we can ask of them.

It is going to be hard to get among the medals.

Amy Lofthouse
BBC Sport in Paris

We say it so much it must sound like a cliche but honestly, the noise whenever Leon Marchand walks anywhere, my word.

Everyone is on their feet as the French team walk out, stamping their feet and waving whatever tricolore they have to hand.

There's a decent reception for Great Britain, too. Duncan Scott, who became Scotland's most decorated Olympian with his 200m medley silver, lets out a puff of air as he pops out the headphones and gets into the zone.

Great Britain's relay team is Kathleen Dawson, James Wilby, Duncan Scott and Anna Hopkin.

For France, multiple medal winner Leon Marchand is the star attraction of their quartet.
