Hello and welcome to another day’s action from Tokyo*. China took an early lead in the medal table yesterday as the usual table-toppers the US – get this – failed to win a medal on day one of the Summer Games for the first time since 1972 (OK, they didn’t win one on day one in 1980 either but they weren’t there so that’s a good excuse).
Anyway, lots of great stuff coming up. Surfing makes it debut while the first ever Olympic skateboarding champion will be crowned early this afternoon (Japanese time). There are 18 gold medals in total up for grabs today and we’ll be here for all of them. Meanwhile you can check out today’s schedule, medal table and results below:
