Hello and welcome to our live track and field coverage ahead of one of the greatest events in sport: the men’s 100m.
Italy’s Marcell Jacobs is today aiming to make history by becoming only the third man to have won multiple gold medals in the 100m at an Olympic Games. The other two? Carl Lewis and Usain Bolt.
There are also medal events in the women’s high jump and men’s hammer throw on what promises to be a night to remember at the Stade de France in Paris.
