    Asher-Smith through in secondpublished at 11:29 British Summer Time 2 August

    Women's 100m heats

    It's a full house for the British trio in the 100m heats.

    Dina Asher-Smith starts well and is right up alongside Poland's Ewa Swoboda all the way.

    The Pole takes it in 10.99 with Britain's European champion having to settle for second in 11.01. The main thing is that she's through, though.

    Nigeria's Rosemary Chukwuma is the third qualifier. It wasn't a great run by her standards but 11.26 is quick enough for her to progress.

    Great Britain have an outstanding gold medal chance.

    The best in the world by miles through the Olympiad. This is when the pressure is at its highest. This is when it matters the most.

    Two from two so far for Team GB in the women's 100m heats as Imani Lansiquot qualifies for the semi-finals.

    The 26-year-old from Peckham finishes third in 11.10 in heat four.

    Canada's Audrey Leduc won it in a national record (NR) time of 10.95 with Tia Clayton of Jamaica in second.

    Dina Asher-Smith goes next in the fifth of eight heats.

    Trampoline - women's qualification

    Sonia Oxley
    BBC Sport in Paris

    The trampoline format is pretty unforgiving - you can't start bouncing again if something goes wrong before you've finished your routine (compared to, say, artistic gymnastics where you can get back on an apparatus after a fall). So we just saw Spain's Noemi Romero Rosario have to finish halfway through her planned routine of 10 moves as she veered off centre and the spotter put the mat under her to catch her.

    Emily Craig and Imogen Grant missed out on a medal by 0.01 seconds at the Tokyo Olympics.

    That disappointment has driven them on and they are unbeaten since that race.

    The back-to-back world and European champions are favourites to win gold here but Romania, Greece and Ireland all qualified with faster times.

    The Brits are the world record holders and hopefully have an extra gear up their sleeves.

    We're about to find out.

    Women's 100m - round one

    Harry Poole
    BBC Sport in Paris

    Daryll Neita has her eyes firmly fixed on individual medals this year, with five global 4x100m relay medals to her name.

    The 27-year-old was left distraught after narrowly missing out on European 200m gold in June but there is no doubt she is on an upward trajectory as she continues her development under coach Marco Airale in Italy.

    The Briton shows she has timed her season perfectly as she opens her Olympic campaign with a season's best performance - and the fastest time so far... Exciting.

    Food Fun Forest: That was a brilliant diving competition. No shame in the GB pair getting bronze behind China and Mexico.
