Bronze medals in taekwondo, dressage and team gymnastics. You only have to look at the gymnastics team to realise just how much it means to them.

Tuned in for the 1 o'clock news yesterday but there wasn't any because of the Olympics.... Thats OK I thought, I'll watch the BBC news channel. Shock horror, it was all Olympics. They even looped the programme without even showing any other news so I got to see Tom Daley winning his medal twice.... Later in the day I tuned in to the 6 o'clock news which has a 30 min slot. There I got to see Daley winning his medal again. The Olympics took 15 minutes of news time. Then the local news and guess what? Surely people who take interest in the Olympics watch it live, record it, or watch a highlights programme and therefore don't need to see it on the news, and people who aren't interested in it don't want to see it on the news either.... Does my head in.... Bloody hell, you sound like my mother-in-law every football tournament!

Bronze in horse dancing and a record breaker too. 🐴💃
"Charlotte Dujardin has become the most decorated British female Olympian ever after winning bronze in the individual dressage.
She scored 88.543 to secure the third-place prize at the Tokyo Equestrian Park on Wednesday.
The medal is Dujardin's sixth in the Olympics, surpassing Katherine Grainger's record of five, which she had equalled with another bronze in the team final on Tuesday."

More success today, this is a pleasing story as she won gold after crowdfunding.
"Britain's Bethany Shriever won gold in the women's BMX racing final, moments after team-mate Kye Whyte claimed the nation's first Olympic medal in the event with silver in the men's.
Shriever, 22, was lifted into the air by Whyte as the pair celebrated their historic achievements in Tokyo.
After needing crowdfunding to be able to go to Japan, Shriever held off two-time champion Mariana Pajon to win.
In the men's, Whyte was 0.114 seconds behind Dutch rider Niek Kimmann."
