Hello, welcome to a packed sportsday, after Day One of the Tokyo Olympics. Im austin halewood. Heres whats coming up in the programme. Theyre under way, and its been a solid start for some of Team Gbs biggest medal hopes on Day One in tokyo. Two from two Team Gb are through to the Knockout Stage of the Womens Football Competition after a win overjapan. But the hosts are up and running, their first gold of the games coming in thejudo. Also coming up in the programme, away from the olympics. Time for the talking to stop. The first Lions Test Match against South Africa is under way in Cape Town. And hope for Hull Charlie shoots a brilliant round on day three of golf� s evian championship. Good evening, welcome to sportsday. Well, we are under way. After a year long delay, the Tokyo Olympics are now in full swing, and weve had an action packed first day from japan. 11 Gold Medals were up for grabs. The first of them went to china, in the womens ten Metre Air Rifle shooting, while ecuador� s Richard Carapaz took gold in the mens cycling Road Race. Nick parrott rounds up some of the highlights from Day One. Fans wont be allowed inside olympic venues, but there was nothing stopping them lining the route of the mens Road Race. Tens of thousands of them eager to catch a glimpse of the best riders in the world. Less than a week after the tour de france, any of the big names were there, including yellowjersey winter. While he had high hopes, thomas was fortunate to be injapan after dislocating his shoulder in a crash during the tour. His medal hopes were already slim, then they disappeared completely. A crash at the second olympics in a row forced him out with 37 miles to go, but if he can recover well, Hell Ride in the Time Trial on wednesday. I he can recover well, Hell Ride in the Time Trial on wednesday. I was ust the Time Trial on wednesday. I was just thinking. The Time Trial on wednesday. I was just thinking, not the Time Trial on wednesday. I was just thinking, not again, the Time Trial on wednesday. Iii13 just thinking, not again, why . Maybe ive done something bad in a previous life. But this month just isnt my month, thats for sure. But we still have wednesday, and i dont feel. Ifeela we still have wednesday, and i dont feel. Ifeel a bit beat up, like you do after a crash, so nothing serious. Just rest up now and try and forget about cycling for at least this evening. And forget about cycling for at least this evening. There was a small consolation least this evening. There was a small consolation for least this evening. There was a small consolation for thomas l least this evening. There was a i small consolation for thomas least this evening. There was a small consolation for thomas his small consolation for thomas his friend Richard Carapaz surged to victory. Sheer delight for him at the only the second ecuadorian to win a Gold Medal. The first gold was one by an olympic Record Score in the womens ten Metre Air Rifle. China secured another two to end the day at the top of the table. The hosts were hopeful one of their most iconic sportsman, three time olympic Gold Medallist and ten time world champion, would provide theirfirst success. This was supposed to be the Fairy Tale ending to the 32 year olds career, but it slipped from his grasp on the high bar. Fortunately forjapan, oconto was able to keep his grip as he held on to claim the countrys first gold of their game. Nick parrott, bbc news. An ideal start. Well, Lucy Hockings is in tokyo for us, and says the japanese are delighted to have had something to cheer about. What a Dream Start for the host nation. Its what they would want, a Gold Medal on the first day, and they got it in the judo. It originated here injapan, so perhaps its fitting. Underscoring the huge strength of japan in this sport. Its fitting. Underscoring the huge Strength Ofjapan in this sport. An incredibly a emotional, he was in tears. He came off the platform in tears, so was his coat. It was strange because the stadium was empty his coach. He was certainly very emotional and it was a big day forjapan. Day one, and they already have a Gold Medal. So, for the first time of the games, lets bring you tokyo Medals Table after Day One. And its china that are top of the shop with three golds already, then italy, and Hosts Japan are tied second with one gold and one silver each. Nothing as of yet for Team Gb, but therell be plenty of opportunities to come. Well, speaking of Team Gb, still to come on sportsday. More murray magic at the olympics. Andy rolls back the years with a big upset in the mens doubles. I was iwasa i was a bit nervous today. Yeah, we havent i was a bit nervous today. Yeah, we havent played together before, but i think havent played together before, but i think we havent played together before, but i think we have the potential to do really i think we have the potential to do really good. And away from the games, well have an update from Cape Town as the British And Irish Lions take on South Africa in their first test. Now to Team Gb, and who better to start with than Adam Peaty . The swimmer is one of britains best hopes for gold in tokyo, and his games are under way. The World Record Holder and defending champion topped the timesheets on his way into the Semi Finals of the ioo metres breaststroke. Fellow brit James Wilby qualified in sixth place. Well, peaty� s looking to become the first british swimmer to retain an olympic title, but admitted the lack of fans was hard to get used to. A bit weird. Very weird. One of the weirdest competitions ive been to, but it doesnt really matter. Its not a final. For me, its just getting out there and pressure doesnt really exist for me. Im accountable for my own actions. Training its the job done, accountable for my own actions. Training its thejob done, so im looking forward to improving in the semifinal. And peaty� s Semi Final is around 3. 30am tomorrow morning. Meanwhile, Great Britains women comfortably made it through to the final of the a by Ioo Metre Freestyle relay. The british team of lucy hope, anna hopkin, Abbie Wood and Freya Anderson won their heat ahead of the united states to qualify in fourth place overall. Aimee willmott is another briton whos swum her way through to a final. She was second in her heat in the Womens Aoo Metre individual medley, qualifying fifth fastest overall. Max litchfield has also made it into the final of the mens event. Now from the pool to the gymnastics centre, where Britains Max Whitlock made a solid start to the defence of his pommel horse title. Hes safely into the final, along with the rest of the team. John watson has more from tokyo for us. Hello from the arena, where there is huge relief here for max whitlock, who has booked his place. That was his intention, and after a five Year Wait from the olympics in rio, he has to wait a little while longer. He duly performed and goes on to qualify for the final next week. He was doing his bit for the team. Impressive performance on the parallel bars, just as there was for Joe Frazier, who qualifies for the final of the parallel bars. A former world champion. He set himself coming into this olympics, he wanted to try and contest a metal in both the all around and individual and a team medal, and they certainly done that so far. Into the Team Final and Joe Frazier will stand every chance once again of contending an olympic medal this time in that final of the parallel bars next week. It was a brilliant � S Performance and shows the Strength And Depth in the squad when you consider that all three of those Team Gb gymnasts were in Contention Heading in that final rotation to make the all around final. Hes been in the squad seven years, a senior now. They all did their bit to put gb into the Team Final. A good start for the mens gymnasts. So, relief for max whitlock. Heres what he had to say. Its been a long time, and thats why i feel surreal being here. Year and a half ago, we didnt know if it was going ahead or not, but were so relieved to be here. So far, the first competition has been amazing. Ive been around for quite a few years, and people are still shocked when i get on. I was really pleased. That actually helps me and the team as a back up, but also helps me keep that Fitness Level up and helped me prepare for pommel, so im happy. Now, helen glovers return to another olympics was one of the standout stories from Team Gb ahead of the games. The two time olympic Rowing Champion was back in the boat this morning, just 14 months after having twins. She was competing alongside Polly Swann in the womens pairs, but asjim lumsden reports, it wasnt a typical start for helen glover. Great britains glover, defender of the title ~ ,. ,. ,. , the title when Glover Road to glory in 2016, it looked the title when Glover Road to glory in 2016, it looked as the title when Glover Road to glory in 2016, it looked as if the title when Glover Road to glory in 2016, it looked as if shed in 2016, it looked as if shed reached the peak of her career. Another olympic gold to add to her first in london. Retiring on a high, she raised a family, a buoy and a twin girl and she raised a family, a buoy and a twin Girland Buoy she raised a family, a buoy and a twin Girl And Buoy followed.

The british pair will have to improve if to step up from. The british pair will have to improve if theyre i to step up from. The british pairi will have to improve if theyre to feature in finals. Jim lumsden, bbc news. Well, away from the action, Team Gbs chef de mission, mark england, admits the heat is an ongoing concern for the british athletes in tokyo but hes confident everyone has prepared correctly to be able to cope with it. The humidity and the heat is already having an impact on certain events, but england insists its not having an adverse effect on Team Gb. Theyve had a great Opening Ceremony last night, and although numbers were low because of guidelines, i think everybody can appreciate that most from the sailing team, both World Champions did fantasticjob. Its very hot, its very humid, the marathon was pushed. But for the athletes down here that will be competing in the heat of the day, notjust competing in the heat of the day, not just our athletes, competing in the heat of the day, notjust our athletes, but also her horses as well, we have worked tirelessly with the specialist back in the uk, the technical specialists across the Home Country sports to make sure that our Heat Mitigation measures are of the absolute best. We know that theyre good because our athletes perform well in the testaments, particularly Triathlons Test events. But we know that theyre in good shape and we know our measures are good, but were not resting on that. It is important and you can tell its pretty warm and humid. The top two seeds in the mens tennis competition, Novak Djokovic and daniil medvedev, have both complained about the heat djokovic saying the conditions in tokyo were the toughest hes ever faced on court. They both safely made it through, and the heat didnt seem to hamper Andy Murray either. The two time Olympic Champion is in the mens singles tomorrow, but in the doubles today, he and Partnerjoe Salisbury managed to knock our the french number two seeds, Nicolas Mahut and pierre hughes herbert, in straight sets to advance to the second round. Its going to be a really tough match its going to be a really tough match. Theyre one of the best teams in the match. Theyre one of the best teams in the world match. Theyre one of the best teams in the world. It was a really tough start, in the world. It was a really tough start, but in the world. It was a really tough start, but we felt ready for it, we felt confident. Weve been practising well together before, and ust practising well together before, and just realty practising well together before, and just really happy how we played.

Looking forward to the next Great One to get through. Looking forward to the next one. Well, its been a good day for the murray family. Jamie murray is also through with his partner neal skupski, but things were much more difficult for them. They saved Match Points to beat Argentinas Andres Molteni and Horacio Zeballos 13 11 in a third and final set. But it was disappointment for Heather Watson in the womens singles, beaten in straight sets by germanys Anna Lena Friedsam in just under two hours. She was the only brit in the womens singles draw. So, a busy first day of action for Team Gb, and theres plenty more to let you know about, too. Joe lynskey� s at the touchscreen with more for us. No medals for Team Gb on this first day of competition that was also the case at London 2012 and rio 2016, where they went on to finish second in the medal table. But there has been progress for two gb sides in the Team Sports, because gbs womens Football Side are through to the Knockout Stages of their competition. They beat the Hosts Japan 1 0 to seal a second straight Win And Qualification from the group stage. Gb werent at their best in this match, but once again, Ellen White stepped up to score her third goal of these games. But theres still a lot to play for in their final group match. Thats against canada and the winner will finish top of the group. Thats important, as it will almost certainly mean an easier match in the last eight. But this Canada Side are unbeaten since february and won against england back in april. You want to talk the group and play third place rather than second place in the dutch in brazil grew. The canadian manager knows a lot of these players very well. They need to play better as the permanent progresses. Theyve got three points on the board, six points. Its a big job for team on the board, six points. Its a big job forTeam Gb, on the board, six points. Its a big job for Team Gb, but they are good enough to win that game. Kasey stoney there. And the Hockey Competition got under way as well today, joe. Everyone remembers those brilliant scenes from rio. How did they start today . There are few more iconic moments for british hockey than that historic gold for the Womens Team in rio. Theyve had a much more difficult build up to this olympics, and they start their Title Defence against germany in the early hours of the morning. Now, the Mens Team last won Hockey Gold at seoul in 88. They made a winning start to their Tokyo Campaign with a 3 1 win against South Africa, and there was an Opening Goal from sam ward. He remarkably plays at this olympics despite being partially blind in one eye. He was struck by a ball in an olympic qualifier three years ago, suffered awful injuries which required 3 screws in surgery, but he returned to the gb set up last year. Hes now helped them to an Opening Win which puts them in a good position to go through. Well, not such good news in the first archery competition, where Great Britain were beaten by mexico in the mixed Team Event South korea going on to win gold there. In the badminton, a winning start in the mixed doubles for Marcus Ellis and lauren smith, but the mens and womens doubles pairs lost their opening matches. And there was such disappointment for ashley mckenzie, who was knocked out in the Opening Round ofjudos 60 kilogram event. He was totally devastated after that result. He said, i had one fight it didnt go the way i wanted. I just want to go home. All the best to ashley moving forward. All the best to ashley moving forward. Before i go, a look at some of the images on the first day of what some are calling the Ghost Games the 3x3 Basketball Court empty on this sports first appearance at the olympics. Beach volleyball, which was such a hit with the crowds at London 2012, silent in tokyo, too. Now there were some crowds at the Road Race thats because the route took the riders outside the tokyo metropolitan area where some spectators are allowed. But, austin, we know these games are going to be different, theyre going to be quiet. Certainly a very different olympics. Seems like weve never seen before. Joe lynskey there. Thanks very much. Lets quickly take you through some of the days other highlights. Three on three basketball made its debut at the games. Less than half a court, with just the one basket ten minutes or the first to 21 points. Its the Number One urban Team Sport according to a study by the ioc. Kosovos Distria Krasniqi won the first Gold Medal injudo, beating home favourite Funa Tonaki in the Womens A8 Kilogram final. Its just the second olympic medal for kosovo, who became independent only 13 years ago. And it was an early exit for the youngest competitor at the games. Syrias hend zaza, atjust 12 years old, was competing in the Table Tennis singles but she was beaten in the first round by Opponent Liu jia, who, at 39, is more than three times her age. So, a jam packed first day from tokyo, but the action doesnt stop there because the British And Irish Lions are taking on South Africa right now in the first Test Match in Cape Town. Now, the Home Side completely dominated the first half leading 12 3 at half time but the lions improved after the break, Luke Cowan Dickie going over to reduce the deficit to just two points. South africa soon extended their lead, though Faf De Klerk with their first try. But three penalties from Dan Bigger put the lions in front, lions leading 19 17 with less than ten minutes to go. About seven minutes to go in Cape Town. Elsewhere, englands Charley Hull enjoyed an excellent third round at golf� s evian championship, the fourth womens major of the year, but shes got plenty left to do if shes to win the tournament in france. Hull hit a five under par third round of 66 to move her to nine under for the tournament. But that still leaves her nine shots behind leaderjohng un leesix, who went round in 68 leaving her on 18 under overall heading into tomorrows final round. So, heres the Leader Board after the third round. Lee6 out at the top there on a brilliant 18 under par. American yealimi noh is her closest rival, five shots back on 15 under, with Charley Hull nine shots back in tied eighth. The matches are coming thick and fast now in the hundred. The Northern Supercharges are taking on the Welsh Fire in their first game right now. Are taking on the Welsh Fire earlier, the Trent Rockets secured their first win of the new competition. They beat the Southern Brave by nine wickets. The rockets bowled first, restricting their opponents to 126 for eight, Marchant De Lange picking up five wickets. And the rockets chased down their target with 18 balls remaining, Dawid Malan top scoring with 62 for the Home Side. Not such a good afternoon for the Trent Rockets women, though. They were beaten by the Southern Brave. The brave batted first, making 133 5 from their 100 balls. In reply, the rockets could only reach 110 for 7, as Captain Anya Shrubshole finished with four wickets for just 13 runs. The Northern Supercharges beat Welsh Fire in todays other match. Formula E Rookiejake dennis won the first London E Prix of the weekend at the excel centre. He was ahead going into the final lap and crossed the line five seconds clear. That moved Dennis Up To second in the points table, with leader Sam Bird forced to retire with suspension damage. And after 16 months away, this morning was a Special One for thousands of runners in england as they slipped back into their normal Saturday Morning routine as parkrun returned. There were a number of 5k runs across the country, ranging from West Yorkshire to south west london. The free event has been going since 2004, and hadnt missed a weekend until the pandemic forced the runs to be postponed. Thats almost all weve got time for here on sportsday, but before we go, heres a look at what youve got to look forward to tomorrow from the olympics. Natalie pirks has more from tokyo. Great britain are traditionally low starters at the olympics, but tomorrow could be a good day. 18 goals of for grabs, and one of them in the winning Road Race with lizzie and contention. She is the Silver Medallist from london. But the dutch really are a force in that race. Jones is bidding to become the first Tae Kwon do player in history to win a third olympic title. She was the london Gold Medallist and anything less than a gold she says will be a fail. A win will make her the first british woman to win gold at three separate games. Plenty more up for grabs, but we will be our first look at a womens artistic gymnastics. That means our folks look at some own vials. She is the most decorated gymnast of all times and she has her own emojis on twitter s simone biles. She has a new skill on hold, but if you landed here, itll be named after her. That will be the fifth Move Name after her. Thats how much of a legend she is. Its also worth waking up around 7am to watch out because of germany. They wont be in tiny leotards, they are in full length bodysuits and they say its because they are taking a stand against the sexualisation in gymnast six. That has been a long time coming for many followers. Natalie pirks there with some of the highlights of whats to come tomorrow. The action starts on Bbc One at midnight. If you want more from Day One though, today at the games is just starting over on Bbc One. And of course the Bbc Sport Website will have even more. Have a very good evening. Bye bye. Hello. For some of us, its been another very warm and very sunny afternoon, particularly across parts of scotland, Northern Ireland and northern england. This is falkirk earlier on this afternoon, lots of Blue Skies and sunshine. For others, we had those thunderstorms through the first part of Saturday Morning. Theyve left in their wake a lot of cloud and further showers, and theres more thunderstorms to come in this forecast. So, heres the bigger picture our area of high pressure bringing very warm, settled conditions starting to drift away north and eastwards, allowing this area of low pressure to tuck in behind. And its going to generate more thunderstorms through this evening and into tomorrow. We have a Met Office warning, yellow warning, for these thunderstorms across parts of southern england, including the midlands and also wales. So, through this evening and overnight, the main focus of the thunderstorms will be across central and southern england, particularly later in the night across south east england, where they could become quite lively. More cloud pushing in from the north and the east, the clearer skies the further west you are. Where weve got the cloud and any thunderstorms, very humid across the southern half of the uk. 14 16 celsius the overnight low here, more like 11 13 celsius further north, and weve still got this area of low pressure with us tomorrow. Its going nowhere fast its likely to stay with us through much of next week. So, the main focus for thunderstorms through tomorrow will initially be across parts of southeast england, maybe East Anglia and then working their way slowly westwards through the day into parts of the midlands, wales, southwest england. Always hit and miss, not everyone will see them. By and large, the further North And West you are, the drier and sunnier it will be once the Morning Cloud starts to break up. Not quite as warm tomorrow across scotland and Northern Ireland, but for most, well still see temperatures in the low to mid 20s celsius. So, we start the new week with this area of low pressure. As i mentioned earlier, its going to be with us for much of next week, so really quite a messy picture on monday. By this stage, it looks like the showers will push their way further northwards into parts of northern england, scotland and Northern Ireland. Again, hit and miss. Not everyone will see them, but where we do, they could bring a lot of Rain Injust a short amount of time. More in the way of sunshine across the southern half of the uk on monday, so here, temperatures rising again, whereas across scotland and Northern Ireland, Theyll Start to turn a little bit cooler. And thats really the theme for the week ahead. Therell be showers for most of us and those temperatures will be coming down both by day and by night. Goodbye. This is bbc news, im lukwesa burak. These are the latest headlines in the uk and around the world. The olympic Host Nationjapan has picked up its first medals, winning a gold and a silver injudo. That was after ecuador� s Richard Carapaz won the gold in the mens olympic cycling Road Race, making it the countrys second ever top medal at a summer olympics.
