Three Japanese skaters in this opening heat and they're setting a high bar.

Just making this skateboarding competition has been a brutal challenge.

The top 22 in the world have fought their way through to this stage - but only eight can make the final.

There will be four heats and the first one features the gold and silver medallists from Tokyo three years ago.

Plenty of atmosphere at the Place de la Concorde skate park for this.

Great Britain's equestrian team have been speaking on BBC One after missing out on a medal in the individual jumping final, but leaving the Olympics with a total of five medals, including two golds.

Ben Maher: "This team is amazing to be a part of. We're in a good era right now for show jumping. It was a great day in the team event. To have these guys working with me, we won because we came here as a team and we're going home with another gold medal."

Harry Charles: "It's like kind of a dream to come here. I think we knew we had a pretty strong team, maybe not everyone thought it, but we definitely knew we had a great team. On the day, we worked the best as a team and that's what wins you a gold medal in that event. To have seen these guys when I was younger with my dad up on the podium and then to be joining them, I can't thank everyone enough. My horse Romeo was sadly not able to go today, but he's in great shape and he's leaving here with a gold medal. I'm happy for him, his owner and the whole British equestrian team, I hope we did the country proud."

These three have been bringing a bit of Versailles to this equestrian venue.

Team GB have two teenagers flying the flag at the skate park today in the women's park qualifying.

Tokyo's bronze medallist Sky Brown, 16, returns to the skate park with Lola Tambling, 16 making her Olympic debut.

Brown spoke to BBC Sport about her Olympic bronze medal at Tokyo 2020, which made her Team GB's youngest ever medal winner at an Olympics.

If Great Britain's Sky Brown makes you feel old, then wait till you hear about Chinese skateboarder Zheng Haohao.

At 11 years old, she is set to become the youngest athlete at Paris 2024 when she competes in the women's park preliminary round (from 11:30 BST). Born a day before the end of the London 2012 Games, Zheng will also become the youngest athlete ever to represent China.

Veteran English skateboarder Danny Wainwright has recently taken over as Zheng's coach and helped her make a late surge at the Olympic Qualifier Series in Shanghai and Budapest to qualify for Paris 2024.

That means there is a 40-year age gap between the youngest and oldest skateboarders at the Games as 51-year-old Andy Macdonald is representing GB.

Brown, who became GB’s youngest Olympic medal winner when she won park bronze three years ago, has been passed fit to compete despite dislocating her shoulder last Monday. Fellow 16-year-old Lola Tambling is GB's other skateboarder in Paris and will also compete in the park prelims.

It's been a stress-free morning for Jack Laugher and Jordan Houlden as they breeze through to the semi-finals of the men's 3m springboard.

They've finished third and fourth respectively, offering the closest opposition to Chinese pair Wang Zongyuan and Xie Siyi.

They'll be back on the springboard from 09:00 BST on Wednesday.

As Team GB have shown in the competition you need a bit of luck on your side. To come home and get a team gold is a fantastic performance.

Our guys didn't disgrace themselves they only touched one fence. They were close to fighting for the medals.

Andy Austin
Equestrian nation cup winner on BBC TV

Brave, courageous, powerful riding. Steve Guerdat took every chance trying to win that gold. Show jumping has delivered again, the highest drama and excitement. What a competition.

If you're enjoying the basketball, by the way, a reminder that you can catch the rest of the men's quarter-final between Germany and Greece on the Red Button, or via the Watch and Listen tab on this page.

While we waited for the equestrian, BBC One audiences have been treated to a gripping first half of the men's basketball.

The buzzer has just sounded with the score at 36-36 between Germany and Greece.

Team GB's Victoria Ohuruogu, speaking to the BBC after winning her 400m repechage round: "It has felt like a long season and it's taken me a while to get my running feet.

"I am happy to get my season best at the Olympics and there is more to come.

"I run well on the outside, I thought to attack and once I was aggressive they couldn't pull me back."

Coming up on BBC One (and via the Watch Live button on this page), we'll be returning to Chateau de Versailles shortly for the three-way medal jump-off in the equestrian jumping individual final - it's between Germany's Christian Kukuk, Maikel van der Vleuten of the Netherlands and Steve Guerdat of Switzerland.

Then we'll be catching up with best of the morning's athletics, before crossing to the skateboarding women's park preliminary round, featuring Sky Brown - a bronze medallist in Tokyo thre years ago - and fellow British 16-year-old Lola Tambling.

Marker laid down!

Jack Laugher has wrapped up the penultimate round at the men's prelims with the only dive we've seen in the 90s so far - achieving a huge 96.90 for his forward four-and-a-half somersault.

A little note to the Chinese pair in front of him that he intends to be in the mix come the final on Thursday.

You cannot argue with a season's best.

Victoria Ohuruogu was bold at the beginning, trusting in her abilities. She did what was necessary.

A season's best from Team GB's Victoria Ohuruogu, who clocks a time of 50.59 to win her repechage and make it through to the women's 400m semi-finals, which take place on Wednesday at 19:45 BST.

There is double disappointment for Team Ireland, with Sharlene Mawdsley and Sophie Becker failing to make it through.

Over on BBC One now, you can catch the first quarter-final in the men's basketball between Germany and Greece.

NBA superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo has already helped himself to 10 points with Greece leading 23-16 midway through the second quarter.

So the end of that round mean that only three went clear, so the jump-off will be coming up next after a 20-minute break.

Switzerland's Steve Guerdat, Maikel van der Vleuten of the Netherlands and Germany's Christian Kukuk are the three competing.
