Paris 2024 delivered a thrilling first couple of days of the Olympics, with Monday bringing the first full week and looking set to deliver a truly enormous programme of events.
Monday’s highlights and stars to watch
Tom Daley will be an early one to watch with the final of the men’s 10m synchronised diving alongside 24-year-old Noah Williams, while in the gymnastic, Team GB – featuring Max Whitlock – will try to win a medal in the men’s team event (from 4.30pm).
Tom Pidcock is then another with gold-medal potential in the men’s cross–country mountain biking (starts 1.10pm). Pidcock stormed to victory in Tokyo after the favourite, Mathieu van der Poel, crashed early in the race. This time Van der Poel is saving himself for the road race, which leaves Pidcock as the man to beat. Two weeks after pulling out of the Tour de France with Covid, can he defend his Olympic title?
In swimming, Britain have both their men in the 200m freestyle final (7.43pm) after Duncan Scott and Matt Richards made it through their semi-finals, and they go up against the big favourite David Popovici of Romania. China’s Tang Qianting takes on America’s Lilly King in a stacked field in the women’s 100m breaststrokefinal (8.32pm).
The first medal the gymnastics will be awarded in the men’s all-around team final (4:30pm), with the Team GB side led by Whitlock, Joe Fraser and Jake Jarman qualifying third overall behind Japan and China. And there will be plenty more tennis to watch too, including a mouth-watering clash between Novak Djokovic v Rafael Nadal.
