Men's discuss throw final Roje Stona of Jamaica took gold with a throw of 70.00m.

Mykolas Alekna of Lithuania finishes in silver medal spot with a throw of 69.97m.

Matthew Denny of Australia finishes in bronze medal position after a throw of 69.31m.

From gold to bronze, only 69 centimetres in it.

Boxing - women's 57kg semi-final Lin Yu Ting wins 5-0 after the judges' scorecard.

After the first round, it really makes you wonder what these judges are seeing.

Yilmaz was the more active boxer and landed what would be scoring punches in a normal bout.

For Yin to win so comfortably, without a single point to Yilmaz, it really is baffling.

Lin Yu Ting boxed on the counter and while she landed good punches, her opponent was the far more active through the entire fight.

View from SunSport's Joshua Jones in Paris There, it was more of the same with Lin’s technique and movement just too much for the Turk to handle.

So there was absolutely no doubt of the result as Lin breezed to her third successive unanimous points victory.

Easy stuff for Lin.

Lin Yu Ting wins by unanimous decision

View from SunSport's Joshua Jones in Paris Lin received a warm reception as she made her ring walk with a host of empty seats inside Court Philippe-Chatrier - a vastly different atmosphere from the raucous scenes for Khelif.

And the action inside the ropes was far different, too.

Lin certainly did not have things all her own way in a low-quality opening round which saw Lin thrown to the floor by a Yildiz headlock.

Surprisingly, the five judges all gave round one to Lin before the pair exchanged some big hits in the second, seemingly willing to forego any sense of defence to throw as many punches as possible.

Lin blatantly struck her opponent on the back of the head and was rightly given a stern warning by the referee, as the Parisian crowd whistled and jeered, but again the five judges sided with the Taiwanese fighter to be in complete control going into the final round.

Lin Yu Ting vs Esra Yildiz Kahraman (Round 3) Yildiz continues to work the harder of the two boxers.

Lin continues to counter and catch her with big straight jabs.

It is going to take a massive end to this round by Yildiz to take this fight.

As she comes forward, Yin continues to get her to walk into punches.

It is all over, it will go to the judges' card.
