Olympics LIVE: Keely Hodgkinson wins superb 800m gold as Armand Duplantis breaks pole vault world record

Keely Hodgkinson is an Olympic champion after winning the women’s 800m final at the Stade de France in Paris . Hodgkinson hit the front on the first lap and led all the way to the line to clinch victory. Having won world and Olympic silver before, finally she has global gold.

In the pole vault, Mondo Duplantis broke his own world record, claiming gold then going on to take Olympic record and then secure his ninth world record with a bar clearance of 6.25m.

Great Britain’s first chance of gold today came on the cycling track, and Team GB made a perfect, record-breaking start on the first night of action in the velodrome. Katy Marchant, Emma Finucane and Sophie Capewell won gold against New Zealand in the women’s sprint final, breaking the world record for the fifth time that day.

Earlier, Joe Clarke claimed silver and Kimberley Woods settled for bronze as Team GB won two medals in the space of five minutes in the kayak cross. Woods, who previously won gold in the slalom, added her second medal of the Games before Clarke sealed his silver moments later. Team GB also won bronze in the triathlon mixed relay .

Biles faltered for the first time on the final day of the gymnastics. She fell off the balance beam during that apparatus final to miss out on a medal, and was then beaten to gold in the floor exercise final by Brazil’s Rebeca Andrade. Biles took silver to win her 11th Olympic medal overall and fourth of the Games – including three golds. Follow all the action, latest results and medals from Paris 2024 in our live blog below.
