Root and Stokes grind down weary India to stretch lead beyond 100
Medal hope Caudery bows out in pole vault qualification

BRITISH medal favourite Molly Caudery vowed to learn from her Olympic debut after crashing out of the qualification session with a no mark.
The reigning world indoor champion was the only entrant who elected to skip the 4.40 metres height attempt, electing to enter at 4.55.
It was a decision that proved costly when she failed to clear the bar with her three tries, particularly after it turned out 4.40 was all it took for nine other women to advance.
