Plenty of Ireland flags are being waved around the arena as Team Ireland's Daniel Wiffen wins his 1500m heat - and wins it comfortably. The noise is so loud it briefly drowns out the cheers of the French fans, who saw David Aubry finish third.

Wiffen 800m freestyle win earlier in the week made him the first athlete from Northern Ireland to win an Olympic gold medal in 36 years. He'll have another bash at a medal in tomorrow's final.

Louie Hinchliffe won his heat, beating reigning world champion Noah Lyles in the process, and he was talking to BBC Sport: "I had to get my game back from London so it felt great but the job’s not done. I don’t want to get too ahead of myself."

Talk us through the race: "Drive out hard, push, stay relaxed and trust my race."

What do you think is there time wise on this track? "I don’t really think much about the time. I just try and execute my race."

Enjoying the Olympic experience? "It’s been great so far."

All of that was done in the last 20 metres as Louie Hinchliffe didn't have the fastest of starts. That is how you walk away from your first experience in a senior vest.

He was a very good golfer as well during his school days. His handicap was one.

Louie Hinchliffe is not fazed one bit!

What an Olympic debut that is, storming to victory in 9.98 seconds ahead of the reigning world champion.

The 22-year-old looks relaxed, shakes Noah Lyles' hand, and exits the track with a smile on his face.

At the risk of getting carried away. He looks the real deal and, with the experience of Carl Lewis in his corner, who knows how far he can go in Paris.

Both athlete and coach have said the goal is to just make the final here.

Because, there, anything can happen.

Jeremiah Azu, who was disqualified after false starting in the men's 100m round one, speaking to BBC One: "Honestly, I just reacted to a sound. It's a shame. The crowd are so excited and the French fans are here.

"It's a shame that they didn't let me run at the protest - I'm not sure what rules are being used but they have said I need to go back and put an appeal in so I'm going to go through the process and see what happens.

"I was saying I wanted to run with the protest. In any other race, they allow you to run and then they review it but this is the Olympics and clearly it's different rules.

"I just want to put in this appeal as quickly as possible so that I can come back out here and get into the semi-final."

Impressive stuff from British champion Louie Hinchliffe to win it!

He clocks 9.98, fractionally off his personal best of 9.95. He started well and was going all out until about 95m.

Noah Lyles came through after an iffy start, finishing second in 10.04.

South Africa's Shaun Maswanganyi also progresses, clocking 10.06 in third.

US sprint star Noah Lyles talks through some of his most outrageous outfit choices of the past few years, and explains why he likes to make a statement both on and off the track.

On we go. Time for heat three and this should be a fun one.

Not only is USA's Noah Lyles getting his Olympics under way, Team GB's Louie Hinchliffe is also looking to book his place in the next round.

No false starts, please.

After that early drama, Jamaica's Kishane Thompson comes through to win heat one in 10 seconds dead.

Benjamin Azamati of Ghana was second in 10.08 with Cuba's Reynaldo Espinosa third.

The second heat is won by Kenya's Ferdinand Omanyala in 10.08, Italy Chituru Ali was second with the German Joshua Hartmann third.

Well that is heartbreaking for Jeremiah Azu.

The biggest moment in the 23-year-old's life and a false start sends it up in smoke.

You are allowed to run under protest. That means a time can be clocked for Jeremiah Azu to put in a protest. If successful then he can move forward.

But he wasn't allowed to do that as it was so clear.

Here are the Olympic headlines so far on Sunday...

• Great Britain picked up their first gold of the day, and their 10th of the Games, in the men's eights rowing, after also winning bronze in the women's event on the final day of competition.
• Tom Pidcock, who won an astonishing gold for Team GB in the mountain biking, is going for glory again in the men's road race alongside team mates Josh Tarling, Stephen Williams and Fred Wright.

• GB's Megan Havers, 16, was eliminated from the women's individual archery after being beaten by the number one seed, South Korea's Lim Sihyeon, 7-1 in the round of 16. Havers was the first archer to score a point against Lim in the solo events at these Games.
• South Korea's Yang Ji-in won the first event of the day in women's 25m pistol shooting, beating French hopeful Camille Jedrzejewski in a gold medal shoot-off.

And here's what to look out for on day eight of Paris 2024...

• The first tennis medals of the games will be decided at Roland Garros from 11.00 BST, with Australia v USA in the men's doubles. Donna Vekic versus Qinwen Zheng takes place in the afternoon.

• Emma Wilson is guaranteed a medal for GB in the rescheduled women's windsurfing - the final rounds commence at 11.13 BST, weather permitting.
• Adam Peaty and Leon Marchand are both set to be involved in the men's 4x100m medley relay heats at 11:40 BST. Team GB will defending their mixed 4x100m relay swimming gold at 20.30 BST - with Peaty aiming to be fit after testing positive for Covid.

• Some of the best gymasts in the world go for gold this afternoon, including Simone Biles in the women's vault and Max Whitlock in the men's pommel horse.
• The highlight of tonight's athletics action is the women's 100m final at 20.20 BST. GB's Dina Asher-Smith, Imani Lansiquot and Daryll Neita are all through to the semi-finals.

Disaster for Jeremiah Azu.

A straight disqualification for a false start in the first men's 100m heat.

He pleads his case to the official, it is very noisy in the stadium with the pole vault ongoing and French interest getting the crowd excited.

But that is it. Decision made. The British athlete is escorted away from the track. That is going to hurt.

Oh no!

Heart-breaking stuff for Great Britain's Jeremiah Azu as he is disqualified from his heat for a false start.

He fights his case for a moment but, eventually, he has to go. His Olympic dream is over - at least for another four years. So, so brutal.

'The fastest runner doesn't always win the race.' Ecclesiastes 9:11.

It is a quote from the Bible that Jeremiah Azu holds especially close to his heart at the moment.

Not that he is a slow runner. In fact, he is the only Welshman in history to have run 100 metres in less than 10 seconds.

The 23-year-old from Cardiff ran 9.97 in May to take him inside the top 10 in the all-time British rankings.

His reward - after finishing second at the UK Athletics Championships - is a first Olympic Games in Paris, and he is relishing the opportunity.

The men's 100m is one of the most highly-anticipated events at any Olympic Games and the heats are just about to start on BBC One.

Great Britain's Jeremiah Azu goes in heat one, alongside Kishane Thompson of Jamaica, who holds the world leading time of 9.77 this year.

Louie Hinchcliffe is up against Team USA superstar Noah Lyles in heat three, while Zharnel Hughes is in heat eight.

Hughes also has American competition in the form of Fred Kerley, as well as world number three Botswana's Letsile Tebogo.

The top three progress to the next round, as well as the three fastest outside of those positions.

Great Britain threw everything at Argentina during the final quarter, with Sophie Hamilton and Sarah Jones both going close to pulling a goal back.

But Zoe Diaz then extends Argentina's lead and the Tokyo silver medallists see out a 3-0 victory to ensure they finish their pool campaign unbeaten.

Great Britain were already assured of a quarter-final spot and will finish fourth in Pool B. Argentina currently top the pool but, if Australia manage to beat Spain by more than one goal later, they will replace them on goal difference.

Adam Peaty and Leon Marchand are both set to be involved in the men's 4x100m medley relay heats at 11:40 BST.

Peaty tested positive for Covid-19 on Monday, a day after winning silver in the 100m breaststroke, but he is scheduled to line up for Great Britain alongside Oliver Morgan, Joe Litchfield and Matt Richards in the second of two heats.

France are in the first heat with Marchand, winner of four gold medals in individual events in Paris, part of the hosts' team.

Great Britain's men's eight team have been speaking after winning gold in the men's eight final.

Jacob Dawson: "Massive mix of emotions. There is a bit of sadness that this is the end, but complete and total elation that we have finished off this project in the right way."

Charlie Elwes: "99.9% of that was perfect - but we did have a bit of a duff stroke on stroke one and that really scared us. But if you have a bit of a duff stroke, it almost fires you up another 20% so we shot out of the start and just never looked back."

Sholto Carnegie: "It was a long wait because we were sort of the last ones to go down the track. Seeing everyone else get their medals means that you learn from it and you can look at things that they did really well, but there were times where we just wanted to get racing. We have stuck together and worked so hard since Tokyo, but it still hasn't sunk in. I can't really believe this is real!"
