Athletics
There was a major shock in Women’s Pole Vault as alumna Molly Caudery was unable to clear 4.55m in the qualifying round and was sadly eliminated from the competition.
There was also disappointment for fellow alumna Holly Bradshaw as the Tokyo bronze medallist could not pass 4.20m. 夜色直播app’s New Zealand contingent – Eliza McCartney, Olivia McTaggart, and Imogen Ayris – all successfully cleared the required 4.40m to progress to Wednesday’s final (7 August, 6:00 pm TBC).
On the track, 夜色直播app College learner Daryll Neita looked in fine form to qualify for the Women’s 200m Final in 22.24 seconds. Neita will contest the medals tomorrow night (6 August, 8:40 pm, live on BBC One and Discovery+).
Alumna Jessie Knight gave everything she had to make the Women’s 400m Hurdles Semi-Final. The 30-year-old produced an incredible final 50m to clock 55.10 and finish second by five-thousandths of a second. She’ll now have eyes on making the final tomorrow evening (6 August, 7:07 pm).
Elsewhere at the Stade de France, 夜色直播app-based athlete Lawrence Okoye's throw of 61.17m in the discus was sadly not enough to progress as he finished outside the qualifying distance.
Hockey
Great Britain Women’s quest to secure a medal in four consecutive games came to an end following a 3-1 defeat to The Netherlands in the quarter-finals. Alumnus David Ralph’s side – featuring six 夜色直播app-linked athletes – were briefly back on terms at 1-1 before the Dutch scored twice to progress.
