Day six has come to a close in Paris and there will be celebrations long into the night for six-time Olympic gold medalist Simone Biles.

But not too heavy, mind, as the 2024 all-around champion still has the vault final on Saturday (15:20 BST), then the beam (11:38 BST) and floor (13:23 BST) finals on Monday. Phew.

Team GB are heading home with three medals in the bag from Thursday at the Games - all in rowing - with the hopes of more to come on day seven.

Come back and join us on Friday, bright and early at 06:30 BST.

Andy Murray gets the last word for Thursday's action in Paris:

"Never even liked tennis anyway," The three-time Grand Slam champion has written on X, formerly Twitter. , external

After missing out on an Olympic bronze medal in a playoff on home soil at Tokyo 2020, Hideki Matsuyama put on a masterclass in the opening round at Le Gold National a little earlier today.

Japan's 2021 Masters champion hit 11 fairways out of 14 and 16 out of 18 greens as he carded an eight-under 63 to lead by two shots going into Friday's second round.

People go crazy for Biles pin badgepublished at 22:18 British Summer Time 1 August 2024

One of the great things about this Olympic Games in Paris has been the pin badge swapsies going on between the different nations and athletes.

Simone Biles - as the gymnastics GOAT - has got her own pin badge.

Andy Murray has managed to bag himself one, with a little help from British gymnast Becky Downie.

There's been a surge in searches for the pin badge since Biles claimed her second gold of the Games earlier.

You can watch the best moments of her latest medal-winning routines below.

Team GB racer Kye Whyte after qualifying for tomorrow's semi-finals: "Not the way I wanted it at all. For the past seven weeks I've really been struggling to train and ride my bike from back issues and the one day it decides to come back it's today.

"I'm in a lot of pain, I don't really have much strength to come out of the start with, it's my back, going down my legs. I'm trying my hardest, just trying to get into the top four to qualify for tomorrow. But for now it's back to the physio and see what we can do to make it better.

"The course is very tight and technical. We've raced in Paris several times and the old course was fast enough for the turns. And when they made this course they didn't change the turns, but they changed the course. The track's much faster than the old one, the corners are the same. It's difficult in the turns, got a lot of people diving in, hitting each other. My back's really messed up so I don't want to crash anyway, I'm just trying to stay safe and qualify."

GB BMX racer Bethany Shriever, who won all three of her quarter-final races: "It couldn't have gone any better, I'm just here to enjoy myself and embrace every second. So the fact it's going this well, it's a bonus. I'm loving every second, my friends and family are here, it's extremely special.

"The crowd was going crazy. But I expected it, the French love BMX, it's getting the recognition and the hype that it deserves. It's wicked.

"This course it suits all my strengths. Psychologically that's what I've been focusing on and honing in on, it seems to be working at the minute. I'll carry on and keep my cool, it's all a mental game from now on. So keep a cool head, put down some smooth laps and yeah, we'll see what happens."

Team GB's Beth Shriever and Kyle White breezed through to the BMX racing semi-finals.

Watch the highlights of how they got there below.

The semi-finals are on Friday, before the gold-medal races from 20:35 BST.

Finally from Andy Murray, speaking to BBC Sport:

"I gave as much as I could to the sport and I love competing in the Olympic Games. These weeks are so special and I will definitely miss them – I have done everything I could to prepare for this event.

"It would have been a fairytale ending to win a medal, but it wasn’t to be.

"Proud to be a part of Team GB and I will miss it."

On his plans in retirement: "I have four children below the age of eight so lay-ins don’t happen.

"I don’t know what I will do tonight! I can do whatever I want now, but I want to go home and spend time with my children."

Team GB's Andy Murray speaking to BBC Sport after playing his final game of professional tennis: "I mean it was a great run and we lost to two top players today. They are both top tennis players, we would have had to play very well to win that match and we didn’t.

"We got into it at the end, but if we found that form earlier we could have caused them problems, but it wasn't to be.

"We did make the quarters, but if you get through that match you get an opportunity to win a medal."

On how it feels to finish his career: "I feel good. I have been ready for this moment for the last few months since I had the operation on my back - I knew it was the right time and I feel lucky to come and compete here.

"I am grateful to Dan Evans for putting in the effort he did to giving us a good chance to having a great run. I am looking forward to stopping now."

In the men's singles, Novak Djokovic continued his bid for a first Olympic gold medal with a quarter-final victory over Stefanos Tsitsipas.

The Serb will face Italy's Lorenzo Musetti next.

Win that and Djokovic will better the bronze medal he won at Beijing in 2008.

With all that Murray-mania, let's have a quick catch up on some other tennis action...

Either Donna Vekic of Croatia or China's Zheng Qinwen will get their hands on Olympic gold.

Vekic, a semi-finalist at this year's Wimbledon, defeated Slovakia's Anna Karolina Schmiedlova in straight sets, while Zheng ended Iga Swiatek's 25-match winning streak on the Paris clay.

The final is on Saturday, while Poland's Swiatek and Schmiedlova will fight it out for bronze tomorrow.

Andy Murray has at times played his best tennis wearing that Great Britain shirt. He led Great Britain to winning the Davis Cup in 2015, the first time we won it since 1936.

You can go on and on about his achievements but like we have all alluded to, it is his character that really makes him a true champion.

Andy Murray's Wimbledon journey was one full of emotional highs and lows.

After his final match at SW19 last month, he chatted through some of the best - and worst - moments with former BBC presenter Sue Barker.

It's over and out for Andy Murray.
