LIVE 2024 Paris Olympics LIVE: Team GB eye equestrian gold, Sky Brown in skateboard action before Josh Kerr battles for glory in 1500m final tonight By Dominic Hogan Published: 09:38, 6 August 2024 | Updated: 09:47, 6 August 2024 e-mail View comments Advertisement 08:40 Not a great start from Ben Maher earlier...
So, to Versailles and the individual jumping event. We've already had one of our two Brits in action this morning, with Ben Maher fourth out out of 30 riders (?!). Defending champion Maher has already won gold in the team event, but it looks like the end of his hopes of adding to that, having picked up four penalties on his run with Dallas Vegas Batilly.
That might not sound much, but we've already had a couple of riders go faultless - picking up now penalties - and so he looks to be out of the running after 12 riders. There's still Scott Brash to come in about seven more riders' time, so there is a hope yet for Team GB! 08:38 Good morning and welcome to Day 11! Good morning Olympics fans and welcome to Day 11 in Paris! We've another action-packed day ahead of us, with Dina Asher-Smith and Daryll Neita going in the women's 200m final, Josh Kerr vs Jakub Ingebrigtsen in the men's 1500m, more cycling over in the velodrome and Team GB's teenage superstar Sky Brown in the skateboarding still to come. But before all of that, we're already underway in the individual jumping final in Versailles AND we've got athletics coming from the Stade de France! I hope you've all had your coffee - it's going to be a busy morning.
