Team GB's Mallory Franklin wins canoe slalom silver as shooter Matthew Coward-Holley wins trap bronze at Tokyo Olympics

The women's C1 event was added to the Olympic programme for the first time for Tokyo, and after winning the test event in 2019 hopes were high for 27-year-old Franklin.

"It was so stressful being sat up there on the start line, but I had a moment where I thought 'I wouldn't want to be anywhere else' - it's just really cool."Coward-Holley entered the Tokyo Olympics as the reigning world and European trap champion but his chances for Olympic gold slipped early on after missing three of his first 10 targets., recovered with 14 successive hits to climb into medal contention.

"In Rio I said it was my last one. This time I'm saying 'no, it's definitely it'," said Glover, 35. "Everyone around me keeps going 'no, no, you're going to do the single', but I definitely don't see myself coming back. It's definitely not in the pipeline." Scott, who has won two medals so far in Tokyo, eased into the 200m individual medley final while Luke Greenbank qualified quickest for the 200m backstroke final.
