Mahe Drysdale wins New Zealand's second gold

The men's and women's eight teams also failed to fire in their finals, both finishing comfortably out of the medals.
In the velodrone, our women's pursuit team has booked a ride for a bronze medal at 8.07am this morning after recording an easy win over Poland in their first round race.
