It's another busy day for Team Ireland at the Olympic Games.
Team Ireland have won another medal at the Olympic Games, this time in rowing.
Rowers Philip Doyle and Daire Lynch have taken bronze after finishing third in the Men's Double Sculls Final.
The duo finished behind Romania in first and the Netherlands in second. The success marks Ireland’s fourth ever rowing medal at an Olympic Games.
It is Ireland's fourth medal of the Paris Games.
The Women’s Four of Imogen Magner, Eimear Lambe, Natalie Long and Emily Hegarty won their B-final, and were seventh overall.
Zoe Hyde and Alison Bergin were tenth overall in the Women’s Double Sculls after a fourth place finish in their B-final.
The medal race in the Men’s Skiff was abandoned for the day, due to inadequate wind conditions in Marseille.
Two attempts were made to stage the race, with both called-off after a single leg.
It’s expected the ten crews will try again tomorrow, with Ireland’s Robert Dickson and Sean Waddilove needing a fourth-place finish to guarantee a medal.
