The TENTH DAY of the Olympic Games arrived and Team GB won TWO gold medals, while Simone Biles had to settle for the silver medal.
Team GB won a brilliant gold medal in the women’s team race at the velodrome, with Katy Marchant, Sophie Capewell and Emma Finucane setting a new world record in their THREE races. Keeley Hodgkinson claimed a brilliant gold medal in the 800 meters that night.

Elsewhere, gymnastics legend Simone Biles failed to win gold on her final two occasions of the games, finishing fifth in the beam final after a fall and winning silver in the clay event.

Light warning from the referee for Yu-ting, who doesn’t know why.
But then he receives a strong blow to the face; I must say she swallowed it well.
Best of all, Turdibekova knows that she wants this circular to remain under discussion.
In the last minute of the lap, Yu-ting goes on the offensive with a quick burst.
And that rewards her, as the judges also unanimously award her the second round.
And we arrived at the first bell.
Five judges, 4 of whom give the first to Yu-ting.
The stakes aren’t high, but she wins.
Arguably the biggest story of the Olympics has been the debate over which boxers failed gender eligibility tests at last year’s World Championships.
Imane Khelif and Lin Yu-ting, however, won permission from the IOC here in Paris to compete.
Khelif beat Italy’s Angela Carini in a painful 46 seconds.
Now it’s time for Yu-ting vs Sitora Turdibekova of Uzbekistan in the 57kg division.
The Spanish Carlos Alcaraz has reached the men’s individual Olympic final.
Alcaraz earned a 6-1-6-1 victory over Canadian Felix Auger-Aliassime.
The 21-year-old will face either Novak Djokovic or Lorenzo Musetti in Sunday’s final.
Bryony Page, high-flying athlete, Olympic trampoline champion: thanks to the Great Fall of China.
The Cheshire acrobat finished the medal table on Olympic points by winning the eight-woman women’s final at the Bercy Arena.
Page qualified fifth, but was the second-to-last jumper to compete and scored 56. 480 according to the judges with her solo regimen in the final.
They were inspired by its difficulty, execution, flight time and horizontal displacement.
Page, 33, fell to her knees in shock and began to cry as the score appeared on the giant screens of the stadium where Simone Biles had stunned world artistic gymnastics the night before.
There was only one competitor left to compete and China’s Hu Yicheng had to achieve something special, especially since she qualified in first place.
However, in her routine, she lost her balance and went off the mat, which is a big no-no on the trampoline.
Even before the scores were known (her score of 11. 790 placed her in last place), it was clear that Page was the winner.
Another gold medal for Great Britain!
Bryony Page is Olympic champion in the women’s trampoline final!
Page’s score of 56. 48 allowed him to come back and take first place.
Belarusian star Viyaleta Bardzilouskaya took silver, while Canadian Sophiane Methot completed the podium.
We are in position for the women’s trampoline final with Team GB’s Bryony Page gunning for a medal.
Page is one of the favorites for gold as she is a two-time world champion.
The Brit won silver at Rio 2016 and bronze at Tokyo 2020!
Team GB’s Josh Kerr won his qualifying heat in the first heat of the men’s 1500m.
Pretty simple. I tried to be calm in the first half. I took a deep breath and said, “Well, I have some paintings to do here. “I feel good.
I may just hear my coaching staff and parents say in the back of my head, ‘You’re too far away. ‘I had a great time and it was a smart first race for us.
These guys are amazing, but I think I’m one of the closers in the world, so I didn’t worry too much. Gentle and simple. There’s not an ounce of courage in me, I’m made for moments like this.
A cruise to gold for Emily Craig and Imogen Grant.
The British duo have dominated the lightweight double sculls for the past three seasons.
And they showed why with a touch of elegance and to secure Great Britain the Games gold medal in the second row.
Craig and Grant were in the lead from the start, despite the Romanians pressing them closely.
Halfway through, the main part lasts and becomes longer.
And Craig and Grant controlled the race from the front of the pack, making sure they had no chance of giving up the gold medal.
They crossed the line easily to win in 6:47 with Romania in second and Greece in third.
It was Great Britain’s sixth rowing medal at the Games, more than any other nation; Their Dutch rivals crowned the classification with 3 gold medals.
Dina Asher-Smith made it to the 100m final!

And it’s bronze for Laugher and Harding.
Third position is still assured, with Laugher and Harding leading the Italians with 14. 58 points on lap six, and Lorenzo Marsaglia and Giovanni Tocci scoring just 74. 10 on their final attempt.
Gold, however, is out of the question as China leaves the end for last with a sensational score of 95. 76 points that leaves them out of success and puts China in 4 of the 4 gold medals at Paris 2024 until the moment.
Then it was time for the British, who pulled out all the stops with a smart effort on the 4 and a side of somersaults to the front.
They immediately know: they hug as soon as they get out of the pool while Tom Daley roars from the stands.
And the euphoria that arises when their score of 94. 62 is announced is electric: Great Britain is in provisional silver and Mexico will have to triumph in the last jump of the festival: their 3. 9 difficulty effort.
They responded with a resounding 94. 77, forcing Laugher and Harding into third place.
Jack Laugher is able to offer shiny new content on his OnlyFans, after winning his fourth Olympic medal.
But he has bragging rights at home after matching his diving spouse Lois Toulson, who clinched bronze in the synchronized 10-meter with Andrea Spendolini-Sirieix on Wednesday.
Yorkshire, 29, took part in the men’s synchronised diving in 3-metre springboard with Chris Mears at Rio 2016.
He won individual silver in the 3 meters in Rio and bronze in Tokyo.
And here in Paris, alongside his new spouse and Olympic debutant Anthony Harding, Laugher clinched the bronze medal in style.
Laugher increased her below-average salary by posting snaps of her torn body on the Onlyfans subscription before Paris.
Team GB’s Anthony Harding and Jack Laugher took third place in the men’s 3m synchronized springboard final.
Mexico’s Juan Celaya and Osmar Olvera are the latest to win gold.
But it was through China’s Daoyi Long and Zongyuan Wang who won gold.
Team GB star Morgan Lake will compete in the women’s high jump final.
Lake cleared 1. 83m, then 1. 88m at the first check before moving to 1. 92m.
But the Brit failed to cross this height in 3 attempts and beat more than 12 of her competitors who crossed this height.
The time has come for British success.
Its fifth dive is a two-somersault and forward and three turns, with a staggering difficulty of 3. 9.
Only the British and the Mexicans achieved this ambitious effort in the final.
It was a big risk, a big compliment as the judges awarded him a score of 85. 41 to put the pressure back on Mexico, who without delay responded willingly with a score of 84. 36.
That’s enough to get back past Great Britain, but not enough to maintain their lead as China returns to the most sensible position in the standings with one round to spare.
A silver to start the day when Ollie Wynne-Griffith and Tom George took second place in the men’s duo in Vaires-sur-Marne.
Wynne-Griffith and George had led almost to the end after they looked fit despite everything.
But in the last 30 meters they were dominated by the Croatian double act of brothers Martin and Valent Sinkovic.
The Brits finished 0. 45 seconds behind the Tokyo champions, who were first disappointed to accept that they were about to fail.
But it was not a lost gold medal for the British, despite this devastating finish.
This time the two Britons got off to a smart start, leading after 250 meters with Romania just behind.
This advantage extended to a quarter of a quarter away, giving them the opportunity to dictate terms if they could.
Then the Romanians intervened and, closing the gap, the British responded, with a lead of 1. 4 seconds with 500m to go.
It’s like gold.
But the Croatian brothers, fourth and more than two seconds behind in the 1,500m, timed superbly, equalized and then moved on.
China is still in the most sensible moment of its game.
But the British are not able to take advantage of it. . .
It looks like they’re going to be silver after the fourth round.
But then the Mexicans prevailed in style, performing an astonishing three and a half somersaults to score a huge 85. 68 and move into first place.
Wow.
Heartbreaking for Team GB in the Boys’ Duos Final!
Great Britain seemed on track to win the gold medal at Paris 2024.
Croatia made a brilliant comeback and took first place!
Ooh.
It’s not the best of the Chinese and that leaves the door ajar.
Laugher and Harding capitalize on the gap.
Still in second place, but now five numbers behind.
Two dives, 4 to go.
Unsurprisingly, the Chinese have already gained a monstrous advantage.
But Laugher and Harding are in second place!
The sun opens slightly between the grey clouds here in Vaires-sur-Marne.
And Ollie Wynne-Griffith and Tom George expect it to shine on them in less than half an hour.
The men’s pair were Swiss silver medalists at last year’s World Championships, but have so far struggled from the start and cannot repeat that in what looks like a real fight for the podium.
Less than 3 seconds separated FIVE teams in the semi-final, with Great Britain third, Croatia and Romania.
The two Britons were among the eight who won bronze in Tokyo and tying will be their minimum goal in what could be truly crazy.
After that, Henley’s butlers may be called in to conduct an investigation if Emily Craig and Imogen Grant don’t win gold in the light double sculls.
Since missing out on a medal by a hundredth of a second in Tokyo, they are undefeated.
They haven’t been more productive so far, but they’ve still been 3 seconds faster than the peloton so far. Is this one in the bag. . . ?
A dazzling start for the British.
They did indeed complete their backward jump (the one with the six jumps and the one with which the 8 pairs begin) to obtain a score of 49. 8.
That they tied with the Americans for the bronze medal.
Five dives to do. . .
Adam Peaty will not participate in the 4x100m medley relay heats. Team GB begins the defense of its Olympic title.
Peaty was diagnosed with Covid-19 on Monday, just a day after winning Olympic silver in the 100m breaststroke.
However, the Brit can still qualify for Saturday’s final, if Team GB qualify.
The 29-year-old could also take part in the men’s 4x100m medley relay that starts on Saturday.
