It's early, and much of the field gets to play after her. But Lids Ko is into 3rd... 🤫

Lydia Ko is going great guns. just got another birdie to take her to 5 under for the day and into third equal.

The swiss girl is on fire and in the lead. -8 so far!

Canadian canoeing is stoopid. Canada should be ashamed.

Unlike butterfly or breaststroke, it just looks stupid. So. It's in there with race walking, for me.

Great recovery from Lids after leaving her tee shot short. Should get her par

Just a brain explosion. Great pitch to recover, a foot from the hole

I've just seen the replays of the men's speed climbing SFs, 3rd/4th and final. It only took a minute.

Such fine margins, and the USA favourite had to settle for bronze despite breaking the WR again.

Great wrestle in the wrestling freestyle 86kg quarter final between San Marino and Azerbaijan. Heaps of action and very close judging by the score.
