The fourteenth day of the Rio Olympic Games saw Usain Bolt bow out in his final race before Olympic retirement, with the legendary Jamaican sprinter winning gold in the 4x100m relay following his success in the 100m and 200m.

Great Britain's Asha Philip, Desiree Henry, Dina Asher-Smith and Daryll Neita put in an impressive display to take 4x100m bronze - their first in the event for 32 years.

Team GB's women's hockey team took gold in a thriller against the Netherlands. Danny Kerry's side were taken to penalties after a 3-3 draw but emerged with a 2-0 shoot-out win.

Lutalo Muhammad suffered last-second heartbreak in his men's 80kg taekwondo final, going down with the last kick to the Ivory Coast's Cheick Saliah Cisse.

Tom Daley returned to action in the 10m platform diving preliminaries and set a real marker for his rival, while Nick Skelton took Team GB's 23rd gold of these Games in the individual show jumping.

Women's Keirin: And it's silver for Becky James! It's finally confirmed that Britain's James came in at second. What a final lap from her - and it needed to be. Netherland's Elis Little takes gold.

  ↵Elsewhere, Justin Rose has been making a creditable bid for the gold medal in the Olympic golf. See what Kevin Garside had to say...

Men's Long Jump: Yet another turn in events as Jeff Henderson jumps 8.38m! He's beaten the South African by the smallest of margins to take first place. Rutherford will have to produce the jump of his life for that top spot on the podium...

Men's Long Jump: Lawson's left hand appears to have dragged in the sand as he's awarded 7.78m. The American is outraged and makes his way over to the officials to complain but it's good news for Rutherford who currently stands in bronze if the decision stands.

Samuel Lovett14 August 2016 02:21

Right, we're minutes away from what should be a thrilling conclusion to the women's heptathlon. Can Jessica Ennis-Hill find the strength to take this 800m by storm and claim that gold medal?

Samuel Lovett14 August 2016 03:06

Golf: With the winner of the Olympic gold in the men's golf competition getting automatic entry to all four major tournaments in 2017, the stakes are even higher in Rio. Justin Rose leads at present.

Men's Gymnastics: The crowd goes wild as their very own Arthur Mariano finishes his routine on the floor. He pumps the air with delight as he finishes his performance before being awarded 15.433 moments later. The Brazilian moves into third to take the bronze medal as it stands.

Samuel Lovett14 August 2016 18:20

Men's Gymnastics: Whitlock is guaranteed a least a silver now Kenzo Shirai of Japan fluffs his routine. Team GB holds its breath as the latest competitor takes the floor...
