So there we have it. The final hooter has just sounded at the end of the men's basketball final, the 306th and final event of the games of the 31st Olympiad- an inevitable eight points to the USA. Tanzania sneaked some points in the men's marathon to make it 120 scoring countries, including the Independent Olympic Athletes. Barring resolution of a couple of drugs disqualifications  and any new ones coming to light, here are the final results.

These are great times to be a British Olympic fan. I don't suppose it will last but  Great Britain now finds itself Second in the Medals table after nine days. The points table is not quite so spectacular for us but there is progress against the Chinese- the gap is down to 46, from 68.5 yesterday and  97 from the day before. Bahrain, Botswana and Grenada join the list, as does a second decimal place, thanks to three golfers contriving to share 8th place today. I'm beginning to wonder if Finland remembered to catch the plane to Rio...

Rather than concentrate on the medals table, which only tells part of the story of the games, I thought a more interesting way of looking at how countries are doing is to create a points table, whereby 8 points are earned for a gold, 7 for a silver, 6 for a bronze, 5 for a 4th place and so on down to 1 for an 8th place. After day 1 and 12 events  here are the results are so far. Where there is a tie for places, for example in Judo where two bronze medals, two fifth places and two 7th places are awarded, points are split accordingly, hence the  .5 in certain totals. 
 
I shall try and update this daily. Doubtless there'll be some back-dated amendments to be made in view of potential disqualifications.
