Here's the lovely moment that Scarlett Mew Jensen and Yasmin Harper secured Team GB's first medal with a bronze in the women's synchronised 3m springboard.
It's an emotional one!
Women's 4x100m freestyle relay

A brilliant swim from Team GB's women in the 4x100m freestyle relay.
These events are so exciting and that was no different as Freya Anderson finishes strong to give her team a second-place finish in thir heat, behind the Americans in first.
GB finished in three minutes 36.13 seconds, behind the United States who clocked three minutes 33.29 seconds and will go in the final later this evening having qualified in seventh place.
History made too as teenager Eva Okaro becomes the first black woman to represent Team GB at the Olympics in the pool.
Gymnastics - men's qualifying

Jake Jarman has pulled off an absolutely stunning floor routine and was punching the air in delight. The score came in at 14.766 - the highest of the day by some way - but GB didn't think that was high enough so requested a review.
The judges have had a look and have agreed his difficulty value was higher so he has now been given 14.966. That is a seriously good score on this apparatus. Big roars all around the arena.
Men's 400m freestyle

Great Britain's Kieran Bird isn't going to feature in the men's 400m freestyle semi-final later this evening.
It's a decent effort from the 24-year-old, finishing sixth in his heat with a time of three minutes, 47.54 seconds but it's not enough to progress.
Up next, GB are in action in the women's 4x100m freestyle relay.
Swiatek 2-1 Begu* - women's singles first round
Amy Lofthouse
BBC Sport in Paris
Well.
It looked like Iga Swiatek was off to a very Iga Swiatek start - by which I mean she was 2-0 up in what felt like 30 seconds and in danger of running away with it.
But a slightly iffy service game, and some much better slicing and gliding from Irina-Camelia Begu, means we're back on serve in this first set.

Man, I had some lucid dreams last night.
Woke up thinking a masked Assassin’s Creed character was riding a mechanical horse which was galloping down here on the River Seine.
Imagine that.
The things eating strong French cheese late on does to your mind.
Men's 100m breaststroke
Team GB's Adam Peaty after winning his first heat with a time of 59.18 seconds: "It's not where you're placed, it's about getting out there, obviously you want to make the semi-final in a good lane which we have."
On whether he was surprised that the time wasn't a little bit quicker across the board: "It's very surprising that it is towards the 59s but maybe everyone is playing the same game. We'll know tomorrow night."
Another strong medal contender for Team GB, Adam Peaty, began his title defence in style by winning his heat of the men's 100m breaststroke earlier.
His semi-final is at 20:10 BST. Fellow Briton James Wilby also qualified in fourth place.

All week, the whole area near the Louvre and Jardin des Tuileries has been under heavy security, with no access whatsoever and tarpaulin covering all the fences and gates.
Now we know why! As revealed last night, it's the home of the Olympic cauldron.
I went to see it on my very soggy run this morning. It's been lowered, and while you couldn't get up close first thing today, it will be possible via free online ticketing.
At the nearby Louvre Pyramid, a set of Olympic rings have been installed and there were huge numbers of people gathering round to snap a photo.
Men's 400m freestyle

More British interest in the pool coming up. Kieran Bird is about to go in heat five of the men's 400m freestyle.
He is appearing at his second Olympic Games and swimming in lane eight here in a tricky field.
We've just had the medal ceremony for the women's synchronised 3m springboard, where Scarlett Mew Jensen and Yasmin Harper won Team GB's first medal of the Games a short while ago.
Look at those smiles!
Women's singles

Judging by the gentle plinking sounds of raindrops on the roof of Chatrier, there won't be any tennis on the outside courts for a while.
That means Jack Draper, who is the first of four Brits in singles action today, will have to wait for it to clear.

Can you see it? Squint. A little more.
Yep, that’s the magnificent Palace of Versailles, visible (just about, today) from the temporary outdoor arena at the historic site which will host the equestrian events at Paris 2024.
It’s a little too far away for my phone camera to really do it justice, and the rain and mist hasn’t helped me here.
While today the dressage phase of the eventing is taking place, tomorrow the cross-country will be the focus, with riders venturing out on to the grounds before me here.
Whisper it quietly, but much sunnier conditions are expected for Sunday’s action. For now, though, it’s rain coats on and brollies up again. I’d only just managed to dry out from the opening ceremony as well!
Women's singles - first round
Amy Lofthouse
BBC Sport in Paris
The players are walking out on to what I reckon is a half-full Court Philippe Chatrier.
There's a massive cheer for world number one Iga Swiatek, who is the hot favourite for the gold here. She's won the past three French Open titles, loves this court and has spoken a lot this year about how much the Olympics and a gold medal would mean to her.
Trying to stop her - and cause what would be an almighty shock - is Irina-Camelia Begu of Romaina, who has a healthy pocket of support away to my right.
Team GB's men's hockey team made the perfect start to their Olympic Games with a 4-0 win over Spain.
You can watch all the best bits below.

Good to see Rafa’s pulled up OK from the opening ceremony last night…
He’s in action later on this evening, pairing up with reigning Wimbledon and French Open champion Carlos Alcaraz in the first round of the men’s doubles, which should be an absolute corker.
Women's synchronised 3m springboard
Leon Taylor
Olympic diving silver medallist on BBC TV
I cannot begin to describe what Anabelle Smith must be feeling. She is right at the end of her career, 31 years old. This could be her last Olympic games, probably is.
It's just tough but that's diving.
What a dramatic opening event.
Women's synchronised 3m springboard
Tonia Couch
Commonwealth silver medallist diver on BBC TV
Every dive counts and Australia could have got a medal.
They needed 50 odd points, that's nothing and they fell off the board. Anabelle [Smith] doesn't normally do that.
Sometimes it happens, sometimes it doesn't but it would be usually in training. I did not expect that.
They probably thought they didn't need to do much to get a medal. So much could have been going through their minds and unfortunately for them they messed up.
Our girls [Scarlett Mew Jensen and Yasmin Harper] did amazing, they got over 300 points and they should be really proud.
Australia were in fourth place with one dive to go, and well-placed for the bronze because GB's pair didn't have a huge buffer of points.
But as you can see from this brilliant image, Anabelle Smith and Maddison Keeney got it all wrong.
They were in tears as they exited the pool with emotional consolation hugs from their coaches.
Heartbreak for the Australians meant pure joy for GB. Ahead of them were USA's Sarah Bacon and Kassidy Cook and China's Chen and Chang.

Job done!
Adam Peaty is back and he looks in sublime form as he powers to win his heat with a time of 59.18 seconds. He waves a finger towards the crowd, he's happy with that.
A cracking swim from fellow Brit James Wilby as well, who clocks 59.40 to finish fourth in the heat.
