Don't think people realise just how far @TeamGB have come in 20 years. Here's the top 25 medal table from Atlanta.

If Trott and Kenny’s household were a country it would be 12th on the medal table - ahead of Spain, Canada & hosts Brazil. #Rio2016

Eileen Gu asked about criticism of her on social media. "If people don't like me that's their loss, they'll never win the Olympics." Got to say fair enough.

Eileen Gu asked about Peng Shuai - “I’m happy she was here to watch me. I’m happy she is happy and healthy and out here doing her thing.”

Jim Lewis, a three-time Gold Cup winning owner, whose horses raced in the colours of his beloved Aston Villa, dies aged 88. Roared Best Mate to help pick up the jackpot at Cheltenham on the Friday, in the Holte End for this the day after.

Eoin Morgan when asked if his team had the luck of the Irish ... “We had Allah with us too, I spoke to Adil (Rashid) and he told me,” he said. Worth reflecting just how this team is a brilliant example of a multicultural Britain, its diversity is its greatest strength. #CWC19

Geraint Thomas/Dina Asher Smith/Lizzy Yarnold/many others have never had to apologise for being a homophobic, anti-Semitic, sexist and, you know, actually won something. And if educating about mental health is a criteria of this long-flawed event, give it to Clarke Carlisle.

Tyson is my Sports Personality Of The Year. Not just for heart, desire, talent & bravery of this fight...but for what he’s done for everyone struggling with their mental health. He’s shown you CAN battle back from depression, you CAN be suicidal and recover. A true inspiration.

Arshad Nadeem enjoys his podium moment after his brilliant javelin gold last night, although the DJ misses his chance to blast out a bit of classic 'Dil Dil Pakistan' instead lazily opting for Katy Perry. #Athletics #Paris2024

This was #SuperSaturday - having a warm pint of lager in a plastic glass in a pub car park is not a Super Saturday.

And yes she’d do exactly the same to politicians of all strips. @KayBurley is a brilliant example that journalists on the election trail need to look all candidates from all parties and attack from the default position they aren’t necessarily telling the whole truth.

Note to politicians: it’s probably easier if you just come on.

IOC president Bach on investigation into Valieva's entourage, including coach Eteri Tutberidze "It's of extreme importance. We've expressed this from the very beginning. She's a minor. Doping very rarely happens alone, there is always an entourage." #FigureSkating #Beijing2022
