Bolt is hoping to add the 200m to the 100m he won on Saturday

Beijing 100m gold medallist Usain Bolt begins his assault on double Olympic glory when he goes in the men's 200m heats on day 10, from 0305 BST.

Christian Malcolm, Marlon Devonish and Alex King lead the British challenge.

Phillips Idowu starts his triple jump campaign while finals on Monday include the long jump and women's 800m.

GB's men's cycling pursuit team go for gold at 1115 BST, while Helen Tucker and Hollie Avil compete in the women's triathlon from 0300 BST.

Bolt was in inspired form as he romped to victory in the men's 100m final on Saturday in a world-record time of 9.69 seconds.

And the Jamaican 21-year-old looks odds on to add to his 100m title and may also threaten Michael Johnson's 200m world-record of 19.32secs.

Away from the track, Tucker has been in fine form this year and is the reigning triathon world champion.

However, the 24-year-old is refusing to put pressure on herself and is looking forward to the challenge in Beijing.

"I have tried not to make it additional pressure and to look at this as just another race," she said.

"But it (winning the world championship) has given me confidence that I am in such good form."

Avil, meanwhile, is the youngest competitor in the field at the age of 18 but is not phased by competing at an Olympics.

She said: "I don't really think about being the youngest, I just want to get out there and compete and be the best I can."

Helen Tucker is among the favourites for a triathlon medal

In Athens four years ago GB's men's team pursuit claimed cycling silver and they will be hoping to go one better in Beijing.

And there will be pressure to deliver following the success so far of the British cycling team.

The team of Ed Clancy, Paul Manning, Geraint Thomas and Bradley Wiggins won gold at the World Championships in Manchester earlier this year but will face stiff opposition from Australia.

Action in the sailing continues with British pair Nick Rogers and Joe Glanfield in the men's 470 medal race from 0600 BST.

Elsewhere, British gymnast Beth Tweddle is in action at 1130 BST in the women's uneven bars at 1143 BST.

Other action in the gymnastics also sees the finals of the men's rings, the women's trampoline and the men's vault.

Boxing action at the Worker's Gymnasium also continues with the bantamweight, featherweight and super-heavyweight quarter-finals.

British super-heavyweight David Price is in action at 1446 BST against Lithuania's Jaroslav Jaksto.
