Jason Kenny and Laura Trott help seal historic Olympic Games medal tally for Team GB

We already had a fair idea that this was coming, but now it's confirmed: Rio 2016 is officially Great Britain's best overseas Olympics ever - and there's still five days to go.

A bronze for Josh Buatsi's in the boxing was the 48th Team GB medal of the Games, eclipsing their previous best tally achieved in Beijing eight years ago.  By the end of Tuesday, they could have 50 in the bag. Soon after Buatsi secured his bronze, cyclist Jason Kenny was victorious in the men's Keirin. His win in the velodrome meant that Team GB had equalled their gold medal tally of 19 from Beijing. Later on, another gold was added by Kenny's fiancee Laura Trott, who became the first British woman to claim four Olympic golds with her win in the Omnium. Kenny's latest win was his sixth Olympic gold, equalling the haul of Sir Chris Hoy. "Today just felt like a dream really," Kenny told the BBC shortly after his win. "I think I'm just kind of so tired I'm just floating through it. So yeah, I really enjoyed today." Trott, who had been seen in tears as Kenny crossed the finish line, shared her pride at her fiance's achievements by way of a tweet moments after he crossed the finish line. https://twitter.com/LauraTrott31/status/765672482984591361 With the Olympics drawing to a close this weekend, Team GB will now set their sights on total of 65 medals (29 golds) they won in London - although equalling that will be difficult.
