Tian Tao wins the silver in the men's 85kg weightlifting competition with a total of 395kg. "I lack experience, since it's my first time competing in the Olympics," said the 22-year-old weightlifter, who lifted just 1kg less than the gold medalist. "I know I'm better than this. I'm aiming for gold in Tokyo in 2020." (SINA.COM)  

  

China claims its first cycling Olympic gold, after Gong Jinjie (left), 30, and Zhong Tianshi, 25, win the women's team sprint. The Chinese duo set a world record to qualify for the final, beating the record China set four years ago in London (SINA.COM)  

  

Yu Song, 29, wins the bronze in the women's judo over-78kg category. Yu won almost all of the sport's championship and masters cups in 2015, dominating first place in the world judo rankings in her category. "I'm so sorry to let everybody down," said the crying top-seed judoka, as she was aiming for gold. "Unexpected, this is what makes judo so enchanting." (SINA.COM)  

   

Li Dan, 27, takes the bronze in the women's trampoline. "I'm satisfied with the result," Li said with a smile when asked about the controversial score the judges gave after her near-perfect performance. Beijing Olympic champion He Wenna of China finished her third Olympic Games in fourth place (SINA.COM)
