Clare Balding and Alex Scott present highlights of a thrilling day’s action from Tokyo 2020 as Great Britain’s Katarina Johnson-Thompson goes for heptathlon gold.
The 2019 world champion is missing an Olympic medal from her glittering collection and will be desperate to join Denise Lewis and Jessica Ennis-Hill as British Olympic heptathlon gold medallists.
In total there were 27 golds on offer today, and we take a look at how Great Britain’s Liam Heath got on as he attempted to defend his K1 200m canoe spirit title and if Peter McGrail could win featherweight boxing gold.
And there are medals being decided in three new Olympic sports - climbing, karate and skateboarding.
