Huge cheers (and a fair few whistles and jeers) as a certain Mr LeBron James is announced to the crowd.Â
James carried the flag for Team USA at the opening ceremony alongside Coco Gauff.Â
Oh how one of all-time greats would love to add a third gold medal to his stacked trophy cabinet tonight at the tender age of 39.Â
USA storm to Relay double!
America win the Women’s 4 x 400m Relay – and then some.
The USA team of Shamier Little, Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone, Gabrielle Thomas and Alexis Holmes blitzed it to cross the line 50m ahead of the field – and only ten-hundreds of a second off the Soviet Union’s World Record.
But what a battle for the remaining medals!
After Jamaica pulled up following a drop of the baton, it looked a race between Ireland and Great Britain for silver and bronze.
That was reckoning without Dutch ace and Olympic favourite Femke Bol though, who ran a typically brilliantly anchor for the Netherlands to claim silver.
A superb final leg from Amber Anning is enough for Team GB to come through in third.
