    He just blinked ever so slightly. A beautiful start to that dive, but he is going to get punished for that by the judges. Williams' chances of a medal may have just slipped through his hands.

    Argh, is that going to cost Noah Williams a shot at a medal?

    His back 3½ Somersaults only registers a 63.00 - the rest of the field now have a chance to pull clear.

    You really don't want to be standing under the board at the side of the pool when the divers throw down their wet towels from 10m up.

    This is turning into a fascinating battle for gold

    Japan's Rikuto Tamai scores a 94.35 but defending champion Cao Yuan responds with a 92.20 to top the standings at the halfway stage.

    Canada's Rylan Wiens is third, nine points clear of Noah Williams, with Kyle Kothari seventh.

    Three years ago, Rebecca McGowan was in Tokyo as a reserve athlete.

    Now, she's here on her own merit - and in with a good chance of landing a medal.

    She took silver at the Grand Prix Finale event in Manchester which ultimately secured her spot at these Games, and she was totally dominant in her first-round match against Venice Traill.

    Here's how GB's Caden Cunningham booked his spot in the taekwondo semi-finals.

    Noah Williams has really stepped up since the semi-final. Diving first in each round means he keeps the pressure on the rest of the field.

    Reverse 3½ Somersaults for Noah Williams that scores 81.60.

    Solid enough but unlikely to be enough to nudge him into the medal positions for now.

    Ripples of surprise going around this arena after China's Yang Hao, who qualified in second, has a second untidy dive in a row. He's well off the pace in 10th.

    There is a huge roar as Cao Yuan nails yet another dive, though it is not enough to lead after round two. That honour goes to Rikuto Tamai of Japan, who scores 95.40.

    China's Yang Hao was fancied to challenge for a medal but is struggling down in 10th so far.

    Much, much better. In the semi-final he shouldered the dive, that's not a million miles away, but that's much more of a safe distance. He's got wonderfully gifted hands without any splash. Look at that. Well done Kyle.

    That's much better from Kyle Kothari, who clocks a 81.60 with his reverse 3½ Somersaults.

    What an opening dive from China's Cao Yuan! 9.5s across the board for his tucked reverse three and a half somersaults, absolutely brilliant.

    He is going to be the one to beat.

    Yes, beautifully done Noah Williams. He always has a little bit of a challenge with this dive because it drifts and over-rotate, but he's managed to disguise that brilliantly. Noah just puts the pressure on those divers still to come.

    Kyle Kothari, making his Olympic debut, registers 70.40 with his opening dive to sit in a tie for ninth after the opening round of dives, with Noah Williams in sixth.

    Reigning Olympic champion Cao Yuan will take some beating. He scores a huge 96.90 to top the early standings ahead of Rikuto Tamai of Japan and Australia's Cassiel Rousseau

    China are chasing a clean sweep of golds after winning seven out of seven so far.
