Won four gold medals between 1992 and 2004 and have fathered three children since then. It's close which is harder to be honest.

Exclusive: Some good news for the Commonwealth Games, I am hearing. Multiple people have told me during the @olympics at @paris2024 that Commonwealth Sport have reached an agreement with Scotland for Glasgow to host the 2026 Commonwealth Games. They will replace Victoria, who withdrew last

I’m not sure 6% is quite accurate 👍🇬🇧 but the GB team is littered with dozens of people who watched a Games and thought ‘that’s for me’. It’s hard but it’s worth it.

Boxing’s Olympic future will be decided next year. Bach’s handling of it and the Russian inclusion in the Games has shortened his tenure as President. Esports, new disciplines and the Winter Games - The new President will have a full in tray.

Closing Ceremony 1992 a certain British athlete boogies onto stage. The security guards boogied up behind them and removed them pretty quick. Bit harder with hundreds of them. 1996 we were asked not to wear British kit if we were going to misbehave. 😂

Oh. That wasn’t what we were expecting. Showstopper is def not overlong speeches. “Thanks a lot Paris you did great. Bye.” Should cover it.

Well that’s that. Time for a break, sleep, family, dog and less Twitter for a while. Privilege as ever to cover the Games. Night all.
