Momiji Nishiya, 13, wins first-ever Olympic women's skateboarding gold

Japan's Momiji Nishiya, 13, won the inaugural Olympic skateboard competition for women, at the Tokyo Games on Monday.

• The skateboarding women's street final saw silver go to another 13-year-old, Brazil's Rayssa Leal. Japanese 16-year-old Funa Nakayama won bronze.
