alex yee and all the triathletes had been held up. once in the water, yee struggled. he was 18th by the time he got out. he�*d need to give chase, but with only one and a half miles of the run remaining, he seemed to be struggling. still, he found something, enough to throw all he had at one last attack on leader hayden wilde, to pass him just around the corner from the finish and to become the olympic champion. i have never seen anything like that. yee in paris exhausted, his friends in london exhilarated. it had seemed impossible. i think there was a point where, you know, i wasn�*t sure what was going to happen. i think i was riding definitely a bad patch between 5k, but, you know, i said to myself, you know, i�*m going to give myself one more chance of this. and, you know, i�*ve worked so hard. i really wanted to, you know, cross the finish line with no regrets. there was more british success in the women�*s race where beth potter picked up a bronze. further east, on the rowing lake, four women set out to win the first british row

what a run from alex yee! they are the olympic champions! ..we�*ve seen daring debuts...berts realises that it's happened! and it is gold for ellie aldridge! they've done it! they've got a medal! and we've seen that starting a family is no barrier to success. we love mummy! after the silent games of tokyo, paris brought the fun back. the city has put on, you know, such an incredible spectacle. i think first and foremost. and, you know, the finishes to all these events have been absolutely amazing. and i think that's what they're going to be remembered for. paris was the fifth olympics in a row where britain has surpassed 60 medals. women were involved in more than half of them, but 14 golds, compared to 22 in tokyo, left them lower on the medal table. food for thought for those at the top. winning a medal on every day of the games is unique. that's never happened before, so it feels like it's just been, you know, success after success after success. i agree it would have been nicer to get some more gold medals. and i think if there's one thing we have to all do when we ge

germany took gold but the british quartet of alex yee, georgia taylor—brown, sam dickinson and beth potterd won silver, after a storming finish from potter, it was a photo finish on the line, and though they were initially awarded second place, the usa were given silverjust before the medal ceremony after closer inspection of the photo on the line. huge uspet in the pole vault, with british medal favourite molly caudery failing to qualify for her final. the european bronze medallist failed to clear her opening height of 4.55 metres — well below her season's best — and was eliminated. it is totally heartbreaking, not the olympic experience i was hoping for, but i am just so sorry to everyone back at home. i wish i could have done betterfor back at home. i wish i could have done better for everyone and back at home. i wish i could have done betterfor everyone and myself, but i will try and learn from this and it is still an olympic experience and i will take everything i can from it. simon biles has lit up the gymnastics arena in paris, but couldn't sign off from the games with more gold. af

finally, alex yee's dramatic final run to win triathlon gold was one of the great team gb moments atuse he's gone and repeated the trick, again against his great rival hayden wilde. in an action replay of what happened a few weeks ago, yee left it late to get the better of new zealander to win the opening super—tri race of the year in boston. and look at this celebration as he crosses the line — wilde was less than impressed. he says he's sick of silver, and will be looking for revenge when they go head to head in chicago next weekend. well done alex and what a celebration. you can get all the latest sports news at from the bbc sport app, orfrom our website. from me and the rest of the team at the bbc sport centre, goodbye. hello there. with schools in england and wales still on holiday, i'm very aware that the vacation season is still in full swing — and if you're about to set off on yours, certainly worth bearing in mind, particularly if you're in this country, and particularly if you're under canvas. heavy rain and gales are forecast for some of us throughout this week — please ke

britain's alex yee looked as though he'd have to settle for silver in the men's race, just as he dido. but on the final lap of the 10k run, he overcame a14—second deficit to pass his great rival, new zealand's hayden wilde, and secure gold. great britain have won more triathlon medals than any other nation since becoming an olympic sport in 2000. the women were first to dive into the seine and their race was close until the final lap of the run, when france's cassandre beaugrand pulled clear of switzerland's julie derron with great britain's beth potter in third. derron says they had no concerns over the water quality. the swimming was fine during the race. we know that they took samples this morning. they take a little time to analyse so we don't know the results, obviously. and yeah, we'll trust the authorities and organisers that they keep us safe, and so we had a safe race today. great britain's rowers failed to win a single gold in tokyo three years ago, bringing homejust two medals but they have a gold on the board with an incredible finish in the womens quadruple sculls. with

and alex yee dropped his swim cap.leading the olympic triathlon mixed relay. georgia taylor—brown followed that with a dominant display on the bike. and with this sprint by sam dickinson, beth potter set off for the final leg in front. what an effort from sam dickinson. beth potter is off the bike, she is starting the run, just two kilometres separates great britain from from back—to—back golds. can she maintain that lead? reeled in by germany and the usa she soon found herself in third, but with the finish in sight it all came down to this mad dash to the line. this, how close it was, so close in fact that great britain were initially given silver before being demoted behind the usa mere moments before the medal ceremony. but spirits still high. it made the finish super exciting. at the end of the day we were saying the sport has won and we were so excited and i think everyone else at home was so excited watching that race, we had you on the edge of your seat the whole time and hopefully that means a little one somewh
