Extraordinary moment Bahamas runner Dives over the finish line of women's 400m to Win gold medal

   

Desperate for Gold!  Sprinter Shaunae Miller of the Bahamas (pictured) has taken gold in an upset win over USA's Allyson Felix in the women's 400m. Miller started strong and led most of the race, but was nearly overtaken by Felix.

She dove in the last second and managed to take gold. Felix finished second, followed by Jamaica's Shericka Jackson. Felix, who took gold in the 400m at last year's World Championship, was the favorite for this race.

Rio Dive Pool turns GREEN in middle of competition - Olympic chiefs Baffled

   

There were bizarre scenes at the Olympic synchronised diving final after the pool turned a murky shade of green.

 The five-metre deep diving pool - which was a normal blue colour during the men's event last night - appeared to be becoming more green as the competition went on.

Thankfully the divers did not seem that bothered by the water's green hue either - including British girls Tonia Couch and Lois Toulson.

Would you have swam in it to win competition?

Olympic French cyclist Pauline Ferrand-Prevot bears Striking Resemblance to Duchess Kate

   

Spectators of the women's road race final at the Rio Olympics were quick to notice that French cyclist Pauline Ferrand-Prevot, left, who came 26th in the race, bears an uncanny resemblance to the royal, right.

Indeed, the 24-year-old may be ten years younger than Kate, 34, but eagle eyed fans noted that the duo share similar features. Whilst Pauline's hair is much lighter than Kate's glossy brunette locks, they do share a similar look.

Pauline and Kate have a strikingly similar bone structure - and both have those famous dimples.
