If table tennis is what you're here for then head over to the Red Button or iPlayer for the women's semi-final between China's Chen Meng and South Korea's Shin Yu-Bin.

China hold a one set lead as things stand.

Chants of "Allez Les Bleus" go up around the Stade de France with Frenchman Makenson Gletty lining up in the second heat.

It's a very close race with Team USA's Harrison Williams taking it in 10.62, ahead of Estonia's Johannes Erm and Rik Taam of the Netherlands.

One of the medal favourites, Leo Neugebauer of Germany was fifth but in a decent time of 10.67 - that would have seen him win heat one.

Gletty was seventh in 10.72.

Rooth really exploded out of the blocks. What I loved about it, he's in the outside lane so he can truly focus on his own job.

He knows he's in good shape physically and he's building through this competition well.

To be rewarded with that 10.71 start, he was so happy with that.

The first winner on the purple Stade de France track at these Olympic Games is Norway's Markus Rooth.

He wins heat one of the decathlon 100m in a personal best time of 10.71, 0.07 seconds ahead of compatriot Sander Skotheim.

Spain's Jorge Urena finished third in 10.87.

Has it always been... purple?!

One for the Friends fans out there to start day seven.

What a stunning setting this is for the days of athletics drama ahead of us.

I took this photo shortly after arriving at the Stade de France but I can assure you that the stands have filled up since then and it's a great turnout for the first morning session.

The track and field at Paris 2024 is GO!

A week into these Olympic Games and it is time for the athletics to start. Well, they actually started yesterday with the men's and women's 20km walk races but the track and field begins today!

It's a highly-anticipated moment at any Olympics and this is no different.

It starts with the 100m in the decathlon. A certain Daley Thompson has been getting plenty of mentions in regards to Britain's greatest sportsperson but there will be no repeat of his heroics at the 1980 and 1984 Games because is no Team GB athlete in the decathlon in Paris.

Defending champion Damian Warner is there to defend his title, though. He set a decathlon world record of 10.12 in the 100m in Tokyo and goes in the third heat.

Leo Neugebauer of Germany has the world lead this year, he is in heat two. Home favourite Kevin Mayer is sadly missing out because of a hamstring injury.

Heat one is just moments away. Watch it now on BBC One.

Some of the major headlines from yesterday in Paris:

• Simone Biles made history as the first women to reclaim the Olympic all-around title, having first won it in 2016 at the Rio Games. The 27-year-old American is the oldest woman to win the event for 72 years.
• Andy Murray, 37, one of Britain's sporting greats, was unable to deliver a medal-winning swansong as he and Dan Evans lost 6-2 6-4 to US pair Tommy Paul and Taylor Fritz in the men's doubles quarter-finals.
• Team GB missed out on the rowing gold they craved but added three more medals at the Vaires-sur-Marne Nautical Stadium.
• Algerian boxer Imane Khelif reached the quarter-finals of the women's 66kg as opponent Angela Carini abandoned their bout after 46 seconds. Khelif is one of two women cleared to compete in the boxing in Paris, having been disqualified from last year's Women's World Championships for failing to meet eligibility criteria - a decision the International Olympic Committee (IOC) has criticised as "arbitrary".

And some events to look out for today:

• Team GB will aim to win a medal in a fourth consecutive diving final in Paris when Anthony Harding and Jack Laugher compete in the men’s synchronised 3m springboard final from 10.00 BST.
• From 10.30 BST there are four rowing finals - the men's and women's pairs, and the men's and women's lightweight double sculls. Great Britain’s Tom George and Ollie Wynne-Griffith are first up in the men's pair final.
• Two-time Olympic medallist Bryony Page of Team GB begins her bid for gold in the trampolining at 11.00 BST, with the final at 12.50 BST.
• Athletics continues with GB high jumper Morgan Lake (09:15), 1500m runner Josh Kerr (10:05) and Dina Asher-Smith and Daryll Neita (100m, 10:50) in qualifying this morning.
• Britain are on course for a medal in the women's windsurfing, where Emma Wilson currently leads. The final stages of that competition take place from 14.30 BST today.

We're under way in the second round of the golf as Japan's Hideki Matsuyami currently leads the pack on -8.

Great Britain's Tommy Fleetwood put in a brilliant first round score to leave himself four shots off the lead with Ireland's Rory McIlroy on -3.

Fleetwood will tee off at 11:44 BST.

What a career. What special times he’s given us.

It’s the emotions you have, the adrenaline, the highs, the lows you don’t get it in your life as a mere mortal when you’re no longer an athlete and that’s what he’s been fighting so hard to keep and experience again.

He’s been so involved in British tennis in terms of his friendships, training at the national tennis centre, setting the bar in terms of work ethic, commitment, what real sacrifice is, the dedication, leaving no stone unturned. It drips down and he’s just been an example for so many British athletes, not only in tennis.

Canadian 17-year-old Summer McIntosh sets a new Olympic record as McIntosh registered 2:03.03 to claim gold and clinch her third medal in Paris, after triumphing in the women's 400m medley and taking silver in the 400m freestyle.

Britain's Laura Stephens finished eighth in the women's 200m butterfly in 2:08.82.

I'm a person, as a fan, that thinks those two Olympic golds are Grand Slams, especially that one at Wimbledon in 2012.

He won on Centre Court against Roger Federer, in straight sets, you tell me that's not a Grand Slam performance.

He's certainly up there [as the greatest British sportsperson]. The way he did all of that, some of the most torturous sporting moments any of us have lived through - I'm going to miss that.

BBC One presenter JJ Chalmers reacts to Andy Murray's retirement.

Keep your suggestions coming for Britain's greatest sportsperson. So far, we're a long way from consensus but then that should come as no surprise...

BBC Radio 1 presenter and host of the Tailenders podcast Greg James weighed in with his opinion last night, writing on X:

"It’s going to be awful having to watch tennis and not feel sick to your stomach isn’t it. Thank you Andy Murray - it’s been, at times, a complete nightmare but I wouldn’t change any of it. I don’t even want to debate it, he’s our greatest ever sportsperson."

Unlike Greg, we're happy to have the debate...
