SUPER SATURDAY

For the host nation of the Olympic Games in 2012, Saturday 4 August will go down as one of the greatest days in their sporting history. 11 athletes from Great Britain won gold medals that day, including the heptathlete Jessica Ennis-Hill, who had been described as the face of the competition. Even with so much pressure on her shoulders, she confidently claimed victory in front of 80,000 roaring fans.
