Paris 2024: Top five stories from day 11 as Team GB miss out on more equestrian medals

Must read

Team GB failed to add to their five equestrian medals at the 2024 Paris Olympics as Germany’s Christian Kukuk won gold in the individual jumping final.

Defending champion Ben Maher and Scott Brash – winners of the team jumping event last week – both featured but missed out on the top three.

It was better news in the athletics as Laura Muir, Georgia Bell and Victoria Ohuruogu made the next stage in their events, but Revee Walcott-Nolan will have to qualify through a repechage.

In the diving, Jack Laugher and Jordan Houlden qualified for the men’s 3m springboard diving semi-finals.

Sport climbers Molly Thompson-Smith and Erin McNeice, however, missed out on the final in the boulder section of the women’s boulder and lead event.

Elsewhere, the skateboarding got under way with Britain’s Sky Brown qualifying for the women’s park final, while home favourite Kauli Vaast won surfing gold on the French Polynesian island Tahiti.
