Friday was a day to celebrate in Aotearoa, with gold and silver medals raining down on the New Zealand Olympic rowing team.

Emma Twigg flew through the women's single sculls to secure gold, and the men's eight dominated the field to secure a gold medal around their necks.

The women's eight also got a podium finish - claiming silver.

Olympics reporter Clay Wilson joins Lisa Owen from the scene of the golden hour.
