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 synchronised diving, while the Team GB women’s Rugby Sevens will have high hopes of a medal too – they are in action in the afternoon in the group stage.
Tom Pidcock is then another with podium potential in the cross country mountain biking.
On the global stage, the USA women’s basketball team includes superstar Brittney Griner, while in the evening session it’ll be all eyes on Tahiti with men’s and women’s surfing third rounds.
Finals will be taking place in the 200m swimming too, with Team GB hoping to have finalists there – and of course there will be plenty more tennis to watch too, potentially including Novak Djokovic vs Rafa Nadal depending on the order of play.
