Olympics

History for Puerto Rico.
Their first ever Olympic Gold medal.
Monica Puig has claimed a famous win over Angelique Kerber 6-4 4-6 6-1 in the womens singles tennis.

Elsewhere the GB womens hockey team have beaten USA 2-1 in their final pool match to top the pool and win their group with a 100% record. Could be important to keep Netherlands in the other half of the draw.

And Giles Scott is very close to Gold for Team GB in the Finn class sailing.

Jessica is in the lead with KTJ in 2nd place.

Update: This was just an update from what I think was after the 2nd round of the long jump

might do all 3 podium winners as a treat for them

Bad news I'm afraid.
My worst fears concerning Nafi Thiam have come true.
Yet another PB for the Belgian this time in the Javelin of 53.13m.
Jess needs to beat Thiam by around 10 seconds in the 800m.
It looks a very tough ask.
Ok Jess.
You now need the run of your life to win.
No pressure .

Bronze for Rutherford in the Long Jump. Great competition with the lead changing hands a few times.
