Britain's Jason Kenny defended his Olympic title, with compatriot Callum Skinner taking silver.
In the women's cycling, Anna Meares has moved through to the next round of the sprint repechage, while Stephanie Morton was just edged out in her heat by French rider, Virginie Cueff.

Australia's Marcus Fraser has finished equal fifth in the men's golf competition.

Sweden's Henrik Stenson secured silver and Matt Kuchar from the USA won bronze.
Fraser was leading on days one and two, but fell to third place before playing for the medal.
"When Rose overtook me yesterday, I knew it was going to be a pretty steep hill to climb," he said.
"I think those two, when they're at their best and I'm at my best, I can't match it with them. They've got big games and they proved that today. They just went ahead in leaps and bounds from the rest of the field and it's pretty cool to sit back and watch the two of them go at it."

Kenya's Jemima Jelagat Sumgong has won the women's marathon with a time of 2:24:04.
She's the first Kenyan woman to win an Olympic marathon.
