Day 2: Red Button - Rowing & Weightlifting

Watch rowing from the Sea Forest Waterway in Tokyo as British crews push towards Olympic finals, followed by weightlifting finals.

Naomi Osaka is in the conclusion of her match in the women's singles. It is the first major competition she has competed in since withdrawing from the French Open and Wimbledon, she and Ashleigh Barty are favorites for the gold. Watch coverage of the men's rowing from the Sea Forest Waterway including the men's and women's quad sculls. In the women's single sculls quarter-finals, Britain's Vicky Thornley aims to reach the semi-finals. John Collins and Graeme Thomas go in the men's double sculls semi-finals, looking for a place in the final - which will take place later in the week. Great Britain are coming into these Olympics off a strong performance in Rio 2016 and have benefited from the extra preparation time before these Olympic games - but so have their rivals. Elsewhere, the Tokyo International Forum is centre stage as medals are awarded in some of the men's categories. Both the 61 and 67kg finals are hotly contested with Columbia's Luis Javier Mosquera and China's Chen Lijun set to go toe-to-toe in the heavier of the two categories.
