He suddenly found himself in Medal Contention and i dont think even realised when he had won the gold, i think his coach actually had to tell him. And then to put that behind him an hour later he had to walk out into the pommel final with louis smith. We knew it was going to be a close contest. But louis did the routine of his life and then max whitlock also performed the routine of his life and took home that gold. I have completely outdone myself, me and scott can stand here very proud, itsjust incredible. To come into the Olympic Games, i dont know what to say, im just so happy. To see one and two for Great Britain on that olympic podium was so special. The next medal came from amy tinkler. Shes the only other girl thats won an olympic medal and shes only 16 years old.

But actually i was just proud to be british. One of the major worry is heading into the real olympics concerned Water Pollution following the discovery of drug resistant super bacteria in the Guanabara Bay and some inland venues. Would it impact athletes in some of britains most successful sports . In short, not much. Years of intense preparations clearly paid off as david mcdaid explains. There are no guarantees in sport of victory for helen glover and Heather Stanning comes pretty close. They had gone five years unbeaten into the games and ended their career together with another success, defending their olympic womens pairs title. They are fearless, they are without equal, they are history makers, Great Britains glover and stanning defend their olympic title and they have done it in such style. There would be gold medals, too, for the mens coxless fours and the mens eight. Many thought that Katherine Grainger would retire after london but the temptation to return proved too strong.

That is a medal that not many people would have given us so im pleased. Tokyo . Mum and dad, i promise, ill never put you through that again.

Finally, to sailing, and there would be no Sir Ben Ainslie in these games but his replacement in the finn class, giles scott, delivered a performance ben ainslie would have been proud of. To win his maiden olympic title. Saskia clark and hannah mills also navigated the tricky rio waters to perfection, and upgraded their london 2012 silver to rio gold. The windsurfer nick dempsey took silver and became the first man to win three career olympic medals in this event. Hello, my name is hollie webb and i was a member of the team gb womens hockey team that won a gold medal at the rio games.

And the game is tough, as we expect against australia, but we managed to win that game. Absolute beauty we topped the pool, and won all of our pool games and i can remember thinking that night, gosh, were going to have to win every single game now to win the rio Olympic Games. So our next massive, massive focus was the quarterfinal. What an easy finish for lily owsley. We drew spain. We managed to win that game as well. The semifinal we were up against the kiwis, who were ludicrously fast and so athletic and we managed to win 3 0. Our coach just said to us, ok, one more game. Great britain are in the olympic final. The netherlands hadnt lost at the Olympic Games since 200a. We knew it would be a big challenge. The dutch played out of their skins and were sort of all over us. We had to fend for our lives. Inside the circle, maddie hinch is down, the angle. They had four chances and scored three. It ended 3 3. We were in a positive place going into the penalties, and each person went, maddie was making some incredible saves, as she always does. Maddie hinch absolutely brilliant. It came to the third one, and helen scored hers. Great britain are off the mark in the shoot out. If i scored my last one then that would be it, we would win. So we went up, made sure i went really slowly so the goalie was waiting for me. Make sure i looked in the eyes and looked as big and confident as possible. Hollie webb on her way, to win gold for Great Britain. Webb. Turns, scores thats the golden goal. Great britain have won the olympic gold medal. The best feeling in the world.

It makes you feel so special and grateful for everyone that has supported me. 15 year old Ellie Robinson and Kare Adenegan were inspired by london 2012. Four years on theyve now become medallists here in rio on their paralympic debut. It was also great to see the veterans of the team still topping the podium. Sasha kindred and jody cundy both competing in their sixth Paralympic Games and both still winning gold. But we cant ignore the fact gbs success has been helped by the absence of russia and the doping ban. But considering there were fears that these games would not even happen at all in the lead up, for 11 days the brazilian people have embraced the paralympic spirit. Gb finished an impressive second in the medal table behind china, with a stunning total of 147 medals. Back to the olympics now and away from the golden performances of the british team in rio, there were of course many incredible achievements by athletes from other countries as well.
