Max Whitlock won Britain's first ever gymnastics gold and later doubled that tally as he clinched podium top spot in both the floor and his favoured pommel horse apparatus.
It came as Jason Kenny beat fellow Briton Callum Smith in the men's sprint final to take his personal Olympics tally to five across three Games, while Justin Rose won golf gold and Andy Murray retained his crown with victory over Juan Martin del Porto in an epic tennis final.
Murray won 7-5 4-6 6-2 7-5 to become the first tennis player ever to win two Olympic gold medals in singles.
And Great Britain's five-gold haul lifted them above China in the medals rankings as the Games entered day 10.
