RIO DE JANEIRO -- The Latest from the 2016 Summer Olympics at Rio de Janeiro (all times local):11:15 p.m.The United States has extended its domination of the mens 100-meter backstroke.Ryan Murphy gave the Americans their sixth straight gold medal in the event, rallying on the return lap to win with a time of 51.97 seconds Monday night at the Rio Olympics.Murphy was fourth at the turn, with Australias Mitch Larkin setting the early pace.Larkin couldnt hold on. Chinas Xu Jiayu surged to the silver in 52.31, while another American, David Plummer, stretched for the bronze in 52.40 -- just three-hundredths of a second ahead of a fading Larkin.It was quite a moment for Plummer, who finally made his first Olympic team at age 30. Now, hes got his first medal.The Americans havent lost the mens 100 back since the 1992 Barcelona Games.---11:15 p.m.Give another gold to the Iron Lady.Hungarys Katinka Hosszu won the 100-meter backstroke at the Rio Olympics on Monday, adding to her world-record victory in the 400 individual medley.Hosszu didnt set a world record in the back, but her time of 58.45 seconds was good enough for a second gold.Kathleen Baker of the United States settled for the silver in 58.75, while Canadas Kylie masse and Chinas Yuanhui Fu tied for the bronze in 58.76.Hosszu, whose nickname comes from her grueling schedule, sat up on the lane rope and made a heart sign in the direction of her coach and husband, Shane Tusup.---11:15 p.m.Sun Yang of China has defied those who complained about his doping past by winning gold in the mens 200-meter freestyle at the Rio Olympics.Yang rallied from his customarily slow start to pass South Africas Chas le Clos and hold off American Conor Dwyer, touching the wall in 1 minute, 44.65 seconds.Le Clos, who recently announced that that both of his parents are battling cancer, went out with a totally different strategy. He built a body-length lead over the entire field and tried to hang on. It nearly worked.But Yang surged to the front, and Le Clos took silver in 1:45.20.Dwyer claimed the bronze in 1:45.23.---11:05 p.m.MEDAL ALERT: Lilly King of the United States has won gold in the womens 100-meter breaststroke at the Rio Olympics.

After he and Serbian teammate Nenad Zimonjic fell 6-4, 6-4 to third-seeded Brazilians Marcelo Melo and Bruno Soares in the second round, Djokovic confirmed that he wont play mixed doubles.The worlds top-ranked player is still seeking his first Olympic gold. Hell be 33 at the 2020 Games, and he said Monday that I really hope I will have another shot at the medal.Djokovic left the court in tears Sunday night after losing to a resurgent del Potro, whose ranking has fallen to 145th after three left wrist surgeries.Djokovics only Olympic medal is a bronze in 2008 in singles.---10:45 p.m.MEDAL ALERT: Ryan Murphy of the United States has won gold in the mens 100-meter backstroke at the Rio Olympics.---10:35 p.m.MEDAL ALERT: Katinka Hosszu of Hungary has won the gold medal in the womens 100-meter backstroke, her second gold medal of the Rio Olympics.

But shes endured a mystifying loss of form since turning pro last summer, struggling just to qualify for two individual events and a relay at the U.S. trials.In 2012, Franklin competed in seven Olympic events. Now, all shes got left is the 200 backstroke and a likely spot on the 4x200 free relay team.---10:15 p.m.FAILED TO QUALIFY: Missy Franklin has failed to qualify for the final of the womens 200-meter freestyle at the Rio Olympics.---10:05 p.m.Australian cyclist Melissa Hoskins was released from the hospital hours after a terrifying crash in training, and she still hopes to compete in the team pursuit competition later this week.The team of Hoskins, Ashlee Ankudinoff, Georgia Baker, Amy Cure and Annette Edmondson were at race speed of nearly 60 kph (37 mph) when they clipped wheels Monday at the end of the back straight. Edmondson stayed on her bike as the other riders fell hard behind her on the banked wooden surface.Hoskins was put in a back brace as a precaution and taken to a Rio de Janeiro hospital for an examination. Tests revealed no broken bones and she was released several hours later.Ankudinoff, Baker and Cure walked off the track and were treated for bruises and floor burns.---10 p.m.China shot the ball so well against Senegal nothing helped the African nation, as it attempted to bounce back from a 65-point opening loss in womens basketball. Despite a small but enthusiastic section of stomping, clapping and singing fans, China rolled to 101-64 win.Mengran Sun and Ting Shao scored 17 points each as China evened its record in group play.China (1-1) scored the first 11 points of the game and looked ready to rout Senegal just like the Americans did Sunday. Senegal (0-2), still looking for its first Olympic victory, gave fans reason to cheer by pulling within 34-33 on a 3-pointer by Diodio Diouf with 4:41 left in the second quarter.The Chinese went on a 9-0 run capped by a couple buckets by Nan Chen and led 47-38 at halftime. They led 73-53 at the end of the third and finished off the win after shooting 56 percent.---9:45 p.m.World record holder Chen Lijun pulled out of the mens weightlifting 62-kilogram class because of leg cramps, which opened the class for Oscar Albeiro Figueroa Mosquera of Colombia to win gold at the Rio de Janeiro Olympics.Chen says he pulled out during the snatch round after he found treatment on the cramp to be pretty useless.Mosquera lifted 142 kilograms in snatch, 176 in clean and jerk and won gold with a total score of 318 kilograms. He was the silver medalist four years ago at the London Games.Eko Yuli Irawan of Indonesia won silver -- one spot better than the bronze he won in London, and Farkhad Kharki of Kazakhstan won bronze in his Olympic debut.---9 p.m.The U.S. Olympic mens basketball team surged after a slow start, beating Venezuela 113-69 on Monday night as Carmelo Anthony passed Michael Jordan for third place on the Americans career scoring list.The game was tied at 18 after one quarter but the Americans soon took control and powered their way to a second straight win to start the tournament.Paul George scored 20 points and Jimmy Butler had 17 for the Americans. Anthony finished with 14, passing Jordans total of 256 points late in the first half. Anthony now has 262 points and the four-time Olympian trails only LeBron James (273) and David Robinson (270).The Americans play again Wednesday against Australia, which also is 2-0.---8:50 p.m.One destroyed racket -- and one poor set -- later, Serena Williams is safely into the third round of the Rio Olympics as she bids for a second consecutive singles gold medal.The No. 1-seeded American struggled for quite a while Monday night before emerging with a 7-6 (5), 6-2 victory over Frances Alize Cornet.Williams started off by taking the first three games, but then dropped five of the following six. During that troublesome stretch, Williams reacted to losing two games in a row by mangling her equipment, slamming it against the back of her sideline chair.Later, she was forced to erase a pair of set points for Cornet, who had won four of their previous seven matchups.But Williams claimed the last three points of the tiebreaker, raced to a 3-0 lead in the second set and was on her way.No tennis player ever has won two Olympic singles golds -- let alone two in a row.---8:45 p.m.Theres another Savon in the boxing tournament with the hope of fighting for Olympic gold.Erislandy Savon, the nephew of three-time Olympic gold medalist Felix Savon, opened with a unanimous decision victory in a heavyweight bout.Felix Savon won gold medals in 1992, 1996 and 2000, one of only three fighters to accomplish the feat. Hes one of the all-time great Cuban amateur fighters.Erislandy Savon said he was proud to represent his family and Cuba in the Olympics.Theres no gold around his neck yet, just in his mouth -- he had gold-capped bottom teeth that werent hit very much by British fighter Lawrence Okolie. Savon won 30-27 on the scorecards.He had knocked out Okolie three months ago in the World Series of Boxing final. Okolie was proud he went from a tough defeat to a competitive bout against the same fighter in just six weeks.I faced those demons and I knew millions of people were going to watch that, he said.---8:25 p.m.The International Judo Federation says Kosovos first Olympic judo champion, Majlinda Kelmendi, may be facing sanctions in France for failing to comply with a drug test in June.During her training ahead of the Rio Games, Kelmendi apparently refused to comply when asked by the French anti-doping agency to provide an out-of-competition sample.The IJF says in a statement that the procedure is being contested by Kelmendi and her coach but looks questionable at the level of the IJF. In an email, judos governing body said that if there were to be sanctions leveled against Kelmendi -- who won her countrys first ever Olympic medal on Sunday -- they would only apply in France.The Kosovo Olympic team could not immediately be reached for comment.---7:35 p.m.MEDAL ALERT: Australia has won the first gold medal for rugby sevens at the Olympics, beating archrival New Zealand 24-17 in the womens final Monday night.The womens world series champions conceded an early try to Kayla McAlister but rallied with two tries before halftime and another two after the break to take a 24-5 lead.Emma Tonegatos early equalizer for Australia was contentious after she appeared to fumble as she crashed over in the corner but referee Alhambra Nievas awarded it after checking with both assistant referees.Evania Pelite scored in the corner on the stroke of halftime, moments after New Zealand star Portia Woodman was sin-binned for a deliberate knock-on.Ellia Green and Charlotte Caslick scored for the Australians before New Zealand cut the margin with late tries from McAlister and Woodman.Ghislaine Landry led Canada to the bronze medal, scoring two tries and landing four conversions in a 33-10 win over Britain.---7:30 p.m.Japan is off to its best start in womens basketball in 20 years after routing host Brazil 82-66 Monday night for a second straight victory.The Japanese didnt qualify in 2008 or 2012 and won only once in 2004. Now they are a win from matching their three victories in Atlanta when Japan went 3-5 and finished seventh.Japan led 47-33 at halftime. The Japanese built that lead to as much as 27 in the third before Brazil went on a 12-4 run to get within 66-47, giving the home fans a reason to roar and stomp their feet. Mika Kurihara ended the run with her 3 with 1:15 left in the quarter.Brazil never got closer than 16 the rest of the way, though fans stuck around and cheered to the final seconds.Ramu Tokashiki, who plays for the WNBAs Seattle Storm, led Japan with 23.---7:20 p.m.Beach volleyball has been one of the top tickets at the Olympics, but the venue at Copacabana beach has been sprinkled liberally with empty seats.With four matches per session, fans are apparently coming to see their favorite team and then leaving. Never was that more clear than Monday, following Brazils three-set loss to Austria. With fans streaming out of the 12,000-seat venue, the public address announcer invited those staying behind to move down to better seats.Another problem has been the late matches. Saturdays match featuring defending champion Kerri Walsh Jennings and her partner April Ross began at 12:34 a.m. Sunday morning. The times are set to draw maximum viewership in the United States, but the empty white seats look bad on TV.A day after getting stuck for 40 minutes in an athletes village elevator before upsetting No. 1 Novak Djokovic in the Rio de Janeiro Games tournaments first round, del Potro was back on court Monday and produced a 6-3, 1-6, 6-3 victory over Portugals Joao Sousa with the help of 16 forehand winners.That match started 15 1/2 hours after del Potro finished beating Djokovic in straight sets Sunday night. Earlier that day, the 6-foot-6 Argentine found himself trapped while trying to get from one floor to another -- until getting rescued by countrymen competing in handball in Brazil.Asked if he took an elevator before facing Sousa, del Potro replied with a laugh: Not today.---AP Summer Games website: http://summergames.ap.org Cheap Jerseys Online .
