The commentators re full of praise for Tom McEwan in the Eventing Dressage and the score looks good. .

BBC have given the medal to the girls in the diving 15 mins before the event starts, not really worth watching it now i guess

On slightly less positive news, Jake Jarman didn't have a great second vault and scores 14.699 overall. He currently sits 3rd behind team mate Hepworth (14.766) and  Benovic (14.733). He should still make the final, but it could be close. 

 

Having said that, he did score more than he did in qualifying for Antwerp and we know how that ended.
