Olympics LIVE: Tom Pidcock in men’s road race before Simone Biles in action and women’s 100m final

The fastest women in the world take centre stage at the Stade de France as Sha’Carri Richardson, Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce, Dina Asher-Smith and the rest vie for 100 metres glory (8.20pm BST). Asher-Smith’s hopes of a first individual Olympic podium finish have been boosted by the withdrawal of Shericka Jackson, but look out for Julien Alfred, who could win St Lucia’s first medal in history.

The final day of rowing at Vaires-sur-Marne with the men’s and women’s eights the last boats in the water— can the British men’s crew (10.10am) return to the top of the podium after missing out in Tokyo?

Over at La Defense Arena, meanwhile, Katie Ledecky is all but certain to win Olympic gold number nine in the 800 metres freestyle, a distance she has dominated for so long, but the mixed medley relay (8.33pm) could be a cracker, particularly if Great Britain can call upon Adam Peaty.

And the men’s road race (10am) will see the peloton test themselves on a tricky course weaving around Paris. The lumps, bumps, cobbles and climbs could favour home home Julian Alaphilippe or dynamite Dutchman Mathieu van der Poel — though Tom Pidcock can’t be ruled out as he swaps disciplines after mountain bike success.

The International Boxing Association (IBA) will award Italy’s Angela Carini, who lost her Olympics welterweight round-of-16 bout against Algerian Imane Khelif at Paris 2024, $50,000 in prize money, it has announced.

Carini pulled out in the first round against the Algerian after just 46 seconds on Thursday, with Carini at the heart of a gender row and absorbing several clean shots.

The IBA, which was stripped of its international recognition by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) last year, said Carini would receive $50,000, her federation a further $25,000 and her coach an additional $25,000.

A relieved Novak Djokovic celebrated breaking his Olympic semi-final hoodoo to set up a blockbuster gold medal match against Carlos Alcaraz.

Remarkably, this was the fourth time the 37-year-old had made it this far at the Games and the first time he has come out on top, with a bronze in 2008 his only previous medal.

Now he is guaranteed to better it after defeating Italy’s Lorenzo Musetti 6-4 6-2, at the end of which Djokovic lay down on the clay as if he had won the title.

France and Argentina players and staff clashed on the pitch at full-time as the hosts edged a bad-tempered match 1-0 in Bordeaux to reach the Olympic semi-finals.

Tempers flared after the final whistle as substitutes and coaching staff spilled on to the pitch amid ugly confrontations.

Jean-Philippe Mateta’s fifth-minute header settled the contest to set up a last-four meeting with Egypt, while France’s Enzo Millot was shown a red card after the final whistle.

The scenes come after Argentina players were filmed singing a derogatory chant about the origins of France’s black players in the wake of their Copa America triumph last month.

Italian boxer Angela Carini says she “wants to apologise” to Imane Khelif for how she handled the moments after their controversial bout at the Olympics and “would embrace her” if she saw her again.

Carini abandoned the last-16 contest after just 46 seconds, when Khelif landed the first significant punch of the fight. After Khelif’s hand was raised to signal her victory, Carini dropped to her knees in tears and appeared to reject her opponent’s attempts to hug her, while also not shaking her hand.

The Italian could also be heard telling her coach, “It’s not right, it’s not right!” before promptly leaving the arena. She had suffered a suspected broken nose. The 25-year-old told reporters that she had never been punched so hard in her career.

There had been such high expectations on Kye Whyte and Beth Shriever ahead of the Games after their gold and silver medals in Tokyo, but on the day of the finals, their medal dreams came to an end.

Whyte crashed in the semi-finals and was taken away on a stretcher, although it was later confirmed by British cycling that he did not suffer any significant injuries.

Shriever had dominated in every round and it looked like it had been set up for her battle for first with Saya Sakakibara.

But in the final, Shriever did not get the start she wanted and ended up finishing out of the medal places.

In the minutes before Teddy Riner entered the arena, Paris 2024 volunteers filled the aisles with phones set to record and security guards peered in from the gangways, trying to snatch a glimpse. A mob of photographers jostled for position at the edge of the tatami, and around them every seat inside the Grand Palais Ephemere was filled.

Then he arrived, all 6ft 8in and 23 stone of him, marching towards the stage as music blared and the fans screeched. Riner is a legend of judo and an icon of France. Here, in his hometown, he is adored like a benevolent king.

Ben Proud claimed the one medal missing from his collection as he bagged Olympic silver in the men’s 50 metres freestyle final.

Proud has won world, European and Commonwealth titles in his decorated career but he has had a couple of near misses for a podium spot at the Olympics – fourth at Rio 2016 and joint fifth at Tokyo 2020.
