The Sports Agents reflect on another incredible evening on the track as Armand Duplantis broke the world record, Keely Hodgkinson won gold for Team GB and Noah Lyles collected his own gold medal for what many are describing as the best 100m final of all time...

Plus, Professor Ross Tucker joins Gabby & Mark to dive into the details surrounding the eligibility testing of Imane Khelif and Lin Yu-Ting as boxing's Olympic gender row rumbles on. They discuss a scandalous IBA press conference, Russia's involvement and the IOC's failure to protect the athletes at the heart of this sorry chapter of Olympic history.
