Spare a thought today for European champion Ciara Mageean after her withdrawal due to a chronic Achilles tendon issue. Sharlene Mawdsley and Sophie Becker missed out on qualification for the women’s 400m finishing third and second respectively in their repechage heats. All eyes will be on tonight's women’s lightweight (60kg) Olympic final, where Kellie Harrington looks to retain her Olympic title against China’s Wenlu Yang at 10.06pm.
