OLYMPICS LONDON 2012: Games day 15 in pictures
By Sportsbeat staff, London 2012
BLIGHTY'S weather was under scrutiny again as lacklustre wind was blamed for halting Luke Patience and Stuart Bithell's medal race, as well as Saskia Clark and Hannah Mills'.

After setting the bar in the early rounds of the men's 10m synchronised dive - only to fall out of the medals with a tricky dive four - Tom Daley and Peter Waterfield begin their individual quest for success.
