Grabarz through to Olympic high jump final

Great Britain's Robert Grabarz has progressed through to the Olympic high jump final in Rio de Janeiro.

The bronze medallist from London 2012 went over at 2.29m to comfortably qualify for the next stage in fifth place.

However, Chris Baker missed out after three failed attempts at that height, with his best effort coming at 2.26m.

The final is scheduled to take place on Tuesday evening.
