Oh my goodness, that was pretty tense for Andy Murray and Dan Evans trying to close that set out. Having to chase and fend off break points in that last game, but some brilliant serving from Evans does the job. Murray did so well at the net all the way through that set.

The Belgian team may bring their level up in the second set, even still the Brits will be very happy to have taken the first set.

Numbers are not brilliant. There aren't too many opportunities, but 19 winners to 10. Andy Murray and Dan Evans have been the more aggressive pair.

Daniel Wiffen of Team Ireland is third as they complete the first 100m.

Australia's Elijah Winnington sets the pace.

How about that then?

Murray and Evans look a much better pairing than the other night - and they had to be against the Belgians.

So far, so good.

The Brit Bros saved three break points split across the start and end of the set, while taking the chance which they created in the second game.

The obituary of Sir Andrew Barron Murray doesn’t need to be updated quite yet.

Is it Daniel Wiffen's time to make history?

It's been 36 years since an athlete from Northern Ireland won an Olympic gold medal.

In just a few minutes, the 23-year-old has a huge chance to change that.

He's the reigning world champion and was the fastest in the heats. Is this his time for Olympic glory?

Dan Evans and Andy Murray are halfway to the quarter-finals

It came after Gille and Vliegen earned a break point, with a furious Evans chucking his racquet to the ground in annoyance. But Evans sent in a strong first serve to see off the break point.

The Brits then earned a set point, but an Evans double fault came at the worst time possible. It didn't matter though as Evans and Murray then crafted a second set point and this time took it.

When you are swimming that well your opponents can't do anything about it. Kaylee McKeown put in an outstanding swim there. Regan Smith must be disappointed, she was leading quite a bit of that race. When the race is that tight and that close you can feel it. But it was a brilliant swim from McKeown.

Tennis players Lleyton Hewitt and Alex de Minaur are here and they look delighted as their fellow Aussie, Kaylee McKeown, wins that highly-anticipated tussle against Regan Smith.

The iconic Louvre Pyramids had not finished being constructed the last time an athlete from Northern Ireland won an Olympic gold medal.

It's been 36 years since Stephen Martin and Jimmy Kirkwood won hockey gold with Great Britiain, and 52 years since the last individual gold when Lady Mary Peters won the pentathlon in 1972.

That's where the golden honours list ends- but that could change tonight.

Ireland swimmer Daniel Wiffen is the favourite in the 800m freestyle after winning World Championship gold in the event in February and he set the fastest time in the heats yesterday.

He won't have it all his own way, but is this his time?

Jack McMillan will also be a medallist at the Games if Great Britain finish in the top three of the 4x200m freestyle relay.

He is watching the final from the stands, but he will still receive a medal after helping the team to the fastest time in the heats earlier today.

It could be a historic night in Paris.

Oh! Canada's Kylie Masse is leading at the halfway point.

Upset on the cards?

There is clear communication.

If they are going to use signals, it was messy [in the first round] and they were both confused - now it's a much tighter communication.

So, a first medal of the night is up for grabs in the pool.

We haven't got any of Team GB involved but it should be an interested tussle.

The fastest 15 times in history are shared by USA's Regan Smith and Australia's Kaylee McKeown.

Smith is the world record holder and has just come out in a duffel coat and gloves!

McKeown is the Olympic record holder.

How does this play out?

If you're just turning your attention to Paris after a busy day, here's a little recap for you.

• Simone Biles and Team USA were simply breaktaking in winning the gold medal in the gymnastics team final. Read the report here.

You want to see Andy Murray extend the epilogue if only that his storied career does not conclude in a half-full stadium.

A man of his stature deserves better.

Nevertheless, those who are here at Roland Garros are creating a fun atmosphere and armed with tens of Union Jack flags.

Leon Marchand is the poster boy of these games and yet he comes out onto the poolside like he is loving life. His face and torso is on the side of a huge building in the city centre. He is the star man yet he does not seem to carry the pressure at all.

I am sitting here thinking there is no way that this is the last match for Andy Murray, he is too sharp. He is the man of the match at the moment. He is showing a masterclass in how to volley in doubles.

Kristof Milak is so impressive as he continues to pull away in the final 20 metres.

He's just sealed his spot in the final with the fifth-fastest time in history!

The Hungarian's time was 0.78 seconds quicker than France's Leon Marchand, who won the first semi-final.

Can Marchand stop the Magyar in tomorrow's final?

There were two absolutely exceptional lobs from the British pair. We are not used to seeing Dan Evans lob the ball but he won a break with one, sensational control of the raquet.

Then Andy Murray with one of his classic moves. One of the all-time great lobbers in the game, alongside Lleyton Hewitt.

Team GB's Dan Evans and Andy Murray are one game away from clinching the opening set as they lead 5-2 with a break of serve against the Belgian pair of Sander Gille and Joran Vliegen.
