    Behind every great man, is an even greater woman.

    We have got some very strong races in the men but they have played it safe or within touching distances of the winners to set up the race for the incredibly strong female talents behind them.

    A good start from Huw Nightingale, who finds himself in second halfway down the course. Can he see it out?

    Biathlon - women's 10km pursuit

    This is the first of two prone shoots. The other two are standing.

    Maren Kirkeeide shoots clean!

    Oceane Michelon makes two mistakes and will have to do two 150m penalty laps - that will cost her 40-50 seconds.

    Lou Jeanmonnot shoots clean! She's about 10 seconds behind the Norwegian leader.

    Team GB have never won a gold or silver Winter Olympic medal on snow. All three of the medals won have been bronze.

    Biathlon - women's 10km pursuit

    France's Oceane Michelon was four seconds behind sprint champion Maren Kirkeeide (Norway) at the start of this pursuit race but has already eaten up that gap and the pair are skiing in tandem as they approach the shooting range for the first time.

    Lou Jeanmonnot, third out of the blocks, has taken nine seconds out of her initial 24-second deficit.

    Let’s hope we’ve broken the finishing fourth bug. Fingers crossed.

    French riders Aidan Chollet and Julia Nirani-Pereira are the winners of the small final, but there's no medals for that one.

    Here comes the big one... with a big gold, silver and bronze waiting at the end...

    Can GB's Huw Nightingale and Charlotte Bankes get their hands on one of those?

  10. Lingering finger or an active prod?published at 13:47 GMT 15 February

    After the stone controversy with the Canadian men over the past couple of days, and World Curling's decision to deploy more officials, a closer eye is being paid to the players' release of the stone.

    Canada women's skip Rachel Homan and Team GB's Bobby Lammie have both had stones burned - removed from play - by the umpire since, we think for a "double-touch".

    But those appeared to be a case of a lingering finger accidentally brushing the granite after releasing the handle, rather than an active prod, as was the case with Marc Kennedy.

    The authorities told the teams they would have officials positioned at the hog line monitoring things, but the chief umpire appears to be moving from sheet to sheet, and watching an end here and an end there, so it's far from consistent.

    Huw Nightingale's having an absolute dream day - two brilliant races for Charlotte Bankes.

    Charlotte has tidied up all the mistakes we saw from her in the individual.

    Three medals, four teams - they're in the mix. With the way they've raced so far, they'd be unlucky not to come away with a medal.

    Good end by Sweden, that. And not a great one for Team GB, who give up their early advantage already. They Swedes take three to nudge in front.

    Norway's Maren Kirkeeide won the sprint race on Saturday, so she'll be the first onto the course in the pursuit.

    Hot on her heels will be French duo Oceane Michelon (+0:04 minutes) and Lou Jeanmonnot (+0:24).

    Jeanmonnot is eyeing her fourth medal of the Games after winning gold in the mixed event, silver in the 15km individual, and bronze in the sprint.

    Here's how the top five will set off:

    1. Maren Kirkeeide (Norway)
    2. Oceane Michelon (France) - +0:04
    3. Lou Jeanmonnot (France) - +0:24
    4. Milena Todorova (Bulgaria) - +0:40
    5. Lisa Vittozzi (Italy) - +0:41

    I'm sure you're all pros at this by now having watched Sweden's Martin Ponsiluoma win gold in the men's 12.5km pursuit this morning but in case you need a refresher of the rules, here goes...

    The pursuit is the simplest biathlon event to follow: the first athlete across the finish line wins the gold medal.

    There is a staggered start, with the sprint champion - in this case Norway's Maren Kirkeeide - going out first.

    The rest of the field set off at intervals based on how many seconds behind Kirkeeide they were in the sprint race and pursue the Norwegian.

    Five laps, four visits to the shooting range with five targets to hit on each visit. They shoot from lying down on the first two laps and standing on the final two. For every missed target, biathletes must ski a 150m penalty loop, which usually takes between 20 and 30 seconds.

    It's fair to say that the fastest four teams are into the final.

    The racing has been so close, so brilliant.

    Norway's Thea Louise Stjernesund and Sweden's Sara Hector were so close to getting gold medals.

    Federica Brignone denied them at the last but far from sulk, the pair bowed before the new Olympic champion...

    Italy and Australia are fastest in the second semi-final so they will join Great Britain and France in the final.

    Australia's Josie Baff won gold in the women's individual event, while Italy's Michela Moiola claimed bronze.

    Stiff competition for Charlotte Bankes!
