the pandemic forced us apart. this separation made this tunnel so dark. l but today, wherever in the world - you may be, we are united in sharing this moment together. over four hours, there was fun and, too, the sense of an olympics as a tv event. it's showtime. but tokyo's showpiece has come with the world still in a pandemic. for the next 16 days, they want sport to be the focus. joe lynskey, bbc news. still spectacular, wasn't it? strange to see those empty seats. our correspondent natalie pirks is in tokyo for us. the world had been waiting a long time to see how tokyo would officially open these games. and it was no queen parachuting into the london olympic stadium, let's put it that way. but it was a very sombre, intimate affair, especially with no spectators in the stadium. and i think it was reflective of the times that we are living in, and i think it was fitting that they didn't have a massive celebration, especially when the japanese public, who are paying for this, can't be part of this party. during

welcome along, thanks forjoining us. more on a dramatic day at the open golf to come, but we start tonight with the extraordinary events at silverstone, where lewis hamilton has been celebrating winning the british grand prix. nothing too surprising in that, but the story of the race was a remarkable one in which the championship leader max verstappen crashed out on the opening lap. hamilton was blamed for that, given a ten—second penalty, but he still fought back to win, closing the gap on his title rival to just eight points. joe wilson reports. silverstone and a crowd on a pre—covid scale, 140,000. an organised arrangement to be checked. many were supporting the reigning world champion. lewis hamilton started second on the grid in his black mercedes, aware that red bull's max verstappen ahead of him had a faster car and that he had to make an impression quickly. first and second in the drivers�* championship, battling for the lead in the british grand prix until this. 0n the inside, and a touch. max verstappen i

a team full of heart, but able to use their heads as well. at least thomas delaney was, denmark in front after just five minutes. denmark's run to the last eight has seen comparisons being made with 1992 danish side which won the side. peter was their goalkeeper back then and now his son caspar is also playing a vital role. and if the danes are strong in defence, they are sublime in a was not the second arriving in the blink of an eye. even kasper dolberg looked surprised. this is a resilient czech side, led by patrik schick, five goals for him and itjumping ship, no one has scored more. ntcham delete macro time to push for an equaliser. denmark's remarkable recovery continues. fantastic night of football. now, there has been another major tournament going on today, a little closer to home. it was an exciting first saturday at wimbledon, especially for one british player on her senior debut. for more on that we can cross live to chetan pathak who's been at the all england club today. yes, the son beginning to set here at wimbledon where it ha

these are the ingredients that allowed us to get to this point and that can help us win this trophy. like england, italy have enjoyed at least some home comforts. an opening night win over turkey... insigne. ..as comprehensive as it was impressive. they have lit up rome tonight. another chance to shine came just days later, thumping switzerland. italy were rapidly looking like the team to beat. rounding off their group with yet another win, this time against wales. verratti. the flick on is brilliant. three from three. and then to wembley. austria provided a rather sterner test but italy pass, flying colours and all. belgium next in the quarterfinals and one of the goals of the tournament. insigne! what a hit! the penalty shoot—out against spain was nerve shredding. italy have got to this final the hard way. italy have proved of late possible to beat. 33 games, almost three years without defeat. an extraordinary story that will take something special to stop rome celebrating tonight. adam wilde, bbc news. such a difficult way. the italians were looking for a championship double tod

ben croucher is at royal st george's for us and has been following the action. it has come alive in the last hour or so. we had a three—way tie for the lead about 15 units ago and now it has all changed on what we call moving day at the majors. but no change for louis oosthuizen at the top of the leaderboard. the 2010 open champion had a little bit of a wobble in the middle of the round and madejust one bogey in his first two rounds, but then it made a couple of bogeys in three holes. on the 14th it did not help, but then showed his mettle and made a birdie on the 16th, making all the difference to him. collin morikawa, that means he is a shot behind leader, louis oosthuizen. collin morikawa isjust leader, louis oosthuizen. collin morikawa is just a shot hind and started the day on —9, did the open debutant, but he battled back from two bogeys in his first five holes and showed all that steel and determination you would expect from a major champion. but what ofjordan speith? he was on —11 not too long ago but then bogeyed his final two holes, an extraordin

this allows us to train. so dependent on what time we are tested and what that means we are cleared for training so we are not putting anyone at risk at any point. but to be honest, the training, my training has not been affected at all. i luckily can still be coached. theyjust obviously have to be at two metres distance which we were all keeping distance anyway. no one is hugging here or anything like that so it does not actually feel that different. we have been provided a separate gazebo that is just for us athletes and the athletes that have been affected are not there at the same time. so even that gazebo, there is no more than two of you at one time. so to be honest, yeah, my training, i had a session yesterday and a hurtle session and it was going really well out here. so luckily the training is not affected and preparations won't be after tokyo, the games will go to paris in 202a, la in 2028 and today it's been confirmed the 2032 olympics and paralympics will be held in brisbane. it'll be the third ti

welcome along, thanks forjoining us. we'll be in tokyo for the olympics latest shortly, but we start with the fall out in rugby league after australia and new zealand both pulled out of this autumn�*s world cup in england. they say it's down to player welfare and safety concerns related to the pandemic. the men's, women's and wheelchair events are scheduled to take place from october, but there are now questions about how it can go ahead without two of the biggest sides. their withdrawal led to this response from the rfl. the rugby league world cup organisers had been bending over backwards for many months to accommodate all of the concerns raised by the australians and the key and we believed that they were in a situation into place where they were willing to come, so this decision has come as a huge blow, and i'm sorry to say that i have no choice but to call this a selfish parochial and cowardly decision. they are now going to have to turn around to their players, their men, their women and their disability athletes

well chetan parthak is there for us. and chetan we have two new finalists at wimbledon — but both of them were tested out there today weren't they? yes, they did and perhaps overwhelmingly not surprised about ash barty but it's her first were able but up against karolina pliskova. she has reach grand slam finals before in the us openin grand slam finals before in the us open in 2016 but not really one of the players talked about going into these championships. but she got the job done today against the number two seed. it took three sets, but pliskova perhaps the most solid and stable, and the most measured and considered, there was moments where sabalenka understand without the nerves get to her perhaps. and pliskova having lost that first set still kept her resolved and got through to make herfirst still kept her resolved and got through to make her first wimbledon final. where, as you said, ash barty awaits. and ash barty has gotten better and better throughout these championships. only drop one set on route to the

which helped develop this low—pressure which swept across the country in the last day or so bringing us a fair bit of rain and strong winds across southern areas and here is the schematic of how the jet stream works and you can see the dip which brings the cooler air from the north but deflects the warmth towards eastern europe and this is where some of his, and this is our summer with the colder weather coming in from northern climes so cold air is one of the reasons why we see the showers developing and the strength of the sunshine in the southern alps helps to bubble up the shower clouds which are only so big and some will linger through the night and they are there at 5am and there are all the weather fronts across scotland and may be some persistent rain, so low—pressure not right over us tomorrow but close enough to drive the weather and remember this is fairly cool air, relatively speaking, over us, so as we go through the afternoon, look at that, the sun comes out and we see showers developing and remember they are only so big, so difficult to pinpoint which towns or city will

covid and civil unrest has put us south africa close to breaking point. the lions run out in cape town and the springboks have plenty of emotional fuel. but what sets this fixture apart is physical. elliott daly was given an early taste of what was to come. this is big boys rugby. the lions look to muscle in but lacked discipline, leaving penalties or paul r to convert. but i have time, they trailed i2—3. after the break, the lions found their teeth —— at half—time. underthere lions found their teeth —— at half—time. under there somewhere to score. suddenly the game had been blown wide open. there was space at this time, it was south africa who pounce. but the swing of dan's boot swung the momentum. his kicks gave the lions the lead on the hour. while south africa tried to batter the red ball down, the lions held firm. now in the cape of good hope, the lions have every reason to be optimistic. katie gore bbc news. formula e rookiejake dennis won the first london e—prix of the weekend at the excel centre. he was ahead going into the final l
