Bryony Pitman is out on the range at Les Invalides, ready to shoot against Mexico's Angela Ruiz in her women's individual archery round of 32 match.

Pitman is aiming to be the first British archer to win an Olympic medal since Alison Williamson in 2004 - and the first to win gold for 116 years.

William Dod and Sybil ‘Queenie’ Newall were the last two British archers to win an Olympic competition, at the first London Games in 1908.

We're through the first 15 minutes in the women's 20km walk and Peru's Kimberly Garcia Leon is in the lead with China's Yang Jiayu close behind in second.

Team GB already have one archer through to the round of 16 in the women's individual competiton, after teenager Megan Havers beat France's Amelie Cordeau 6-5 after a shoot-off yesterday.

The 16-year-old, who had earlier beaten Spain's Elia Canales 6-0, will now be in action again on Saturday at the Esplanade des Invalides.

"It's absolutely amazing. There are so many emotions I am feeling right now," she said.

"I'm going to have tomorrow off to relax and bring myself back down after today."

Havers is the youngest archer competing in Paris - she hasn't even found out her GCSE results yet.

The early starters are through the first few holes at the lush Le Golf National, home to Europe's Ryder Cup success in 2018, with Argentina Emiliano Grillo recently opening his round with a birdie.

Great Britian's Tommy Fleetwood, one of the stars of that Ryder Cup team, is just getting his Olympic bid under way on the outskirts of Paris, while the likes of Australian Jason Day, American world number one Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy, representing Ireland, will all tee off in the next hour.

A reserve at Rio 2016, the 27-year-old archer from Shoreham-by-Sea made her Olympic debut in Tokyo, reaching the round of 16.

In 2022, she won GB’s first individual recurve World Cup medal for a decade with gold in Antalya, and also won World Games silver, helping her become the first British archer to top the recurve world rankings for 24 years at the start of 2023.

A History graduate from Northumbria University, she also has a Masters degree in Intelligence and Security from Brunel University.

Smart off the archery range and sharp on it, Pitman could get within touching distance of the medals if she finds form in Paris.

We've just got going in the women's race and unfortunately, we're without a British athlete here.

Italian Antonella Palmisano is the current champion and will be going for gold once again in Paris.

Peru's Kimberly Garcia looks to win her first Olympic medal to add to her two 2022 world titles.

Four-time world champion and 2016 Olympic gold medallist Hong Liu is aiming to add to her glittering CV for China.

More from the Team GB women's quadruple sculls gold medallists on BBC Radio 5 Live Breakfast.

Lola Anderson: "I think Lauren Henry, our Bow girl knew first, she was confident from about 600 metres out that we were going to come through. Lauren said that she saw on the board GBR and one on the board and she started screaming, it didn't sound like sad screaming."

Lauren Henry: "I think quite a lot of the cameras caught me crying my eyes out. I was lucky to have my team-mates around me to hold me together a bit and also help me celebrate and take in the moment.

"We're not used to this type of media coverage following us around. For me personally, that was very overwhelming, even more so getting our phones back and seeing a huge outreach."

BBC 5 Live Breakfast

Great Britain's women's quadruple sculls gold medallists Lauren Henry, Lola Anderson, Georgina Brayshaw and Hannah Scott were on BBC 5 Live Breakfast, here's what they had to say...

Hannah Scott: "I think if I was honest, you'd think I was quite mad but I was calm. I knew that the Dutch would always kind of maybe go out but in the last 25 meters I was still confident we were going to get it back and I was just calling for that for the girls. We were pretty confident that we'd still come through.

"When we watched the race back, we realised it was pretty close. You never panic in an emergency and that's what we were doing. We were just keeping chilled and getting our best race."

Georgina Brayshaw: "We have a set race plan, Hannah calls the race plan from start to finish. She's done that for the past two years. We've done the same race plan, we all know it by heart now.

"Hannah's calling through it and making any calls if she thinks we need to change anything and then Lauren's looking out and feeding stuff to Hannah and Hannah's feeding it to Lola who is feeding it to me. It's a massive teamwork. We all have our individual parts but it all comes together in one big machine. Everyone's got their part to play."

We return to Les Invalides this morning for action from the women's archery competition.

There is British interest in Bryony Pitman, who takes on Mexico's Angela Ruiz at 09:09 BST in the individual round of 32.

If Pitman wins, her round of 16 match will take place immediately afterwards. She would face either China’s Li Jiaman or Kirstine Danstrup Andersen of Denmark.

Great Britain's Kieran Reilly won silver in the men's BMX freestyle on Wednesday. Here's what he said to BBC 5 Live Breakfast.

"The last three years revolved around the Olympics for me, to make sure I prepared the best I could to get here. To achieve the dream of being an Olympian was one thing, but putting the run down to get on the podium was extraordinary. I left it all out there. When I finished the run, I emptied the gas tank. Competitions like the Olympics its a different mindset, everyone wants to go for gold. It was special.

"Starting BMX, you didn't dream of the Olympics, you weren't here, for me this dream started three years ago in Tokyo. I wasn't a competitive rider, I was known more for social media and I really wanted to change the direction. I'm so proud it paid off."

It's a big day at Vaires-Sur-Marne Nautical Stadium again today and Great Britain will be aiming to add to their medal tally later this morning with the men's and women's four finals both to come.

Up first, though, is the single sculls semi-finals. No Team GB participants in either the men's or women's race for that.

But it is now less than an hour until Mathilda Hodgkins-Byrne and Rebecca Wilde go in the women's double sculls final.

A lot of people, in the golf community, think there's an opportunity to mix it up and maybe do something different but in fact what they've done, it's a 72 hole stroke play, just as it is on the tours around the world. It's the lowest score over 72 holes, 60 players in each field.

It's very straight forward, what we've seen in the previous Olympic tournaments, it works very well. In Tokyo, there was a seven man play-off for bronze medal. Any other golf tournament, no one bothers about third.

Ecuador's Brian Daniel Pintado is currently in front of the selfie board talking to his proud family after achieving his dream of winning an Olympic gold medal.

It's basically a large screen with a camera that allows him to video call his family back home in Ecuador.

A really lovely touch from these Games.

Great Britain's women's quadruple sculls rowing team have been on BBC Breakfast this morning after winning gold medals, beating the Netherlands in the final by 0.15 seconds.

One of the rowers, Lola Anderson, has spoken about the reaction to her emotional post-race interview. She spoke about how her late father kept a note from when she was 14, saying she would be an Olympic gold medallist.

"I've been a little bit taken aback by how many people have seen the post-race media. Everyone can relate unfortunately at some point in life to grief one way or another and losing a loved one. The amount of support and just amazing comments from complete strangers that have reached out just to say well done and to say reassure me and say my dad would have been proud is really touching.

"I guess it shows how unique and special it is to be part of something like this at the Olympics really brings people together from all walks of like and I'm very, very proud to be here with these girls. I wouldn't be here without these girls as well.

"I feel like for me that the part of that story that really sticks with me is yes, obviously it kind of has a bittersweet note to it with the fact my dad is no longer with us, but what I'm really proud of is the face that just like any parent, my mum as well, and all of my teammates' parents, they all believe in you before you have the chance to believe in yourself. As a young girl, I was quite embarrassed by how big my dreams sounded before I had the chance to realise it. I didn't back myself to so I threw it (the note) away.

"When you've got your parents and your loved ones and your support, it doesn't where it comes from, they are always around you to pick you back up when don't believe in yourself, they help you cross that finish line."
