Olympic Games Paris 2024

[LlynTegid]

Starting a thread as it is only weeks away.

The Welsh cyclist who I saw win a medal at the 2022 Commonwealth Games and the raising of the Welsh flag will be there- Emma Finucaine, one of the fastest women in the world on a cycle.

It's on later at 8.44 pm

I've just checked on my Olympics App

We haven't missed Adam

Yay

Would help if they updated the commentators with the latest changes and facts and what to click on exactly and where at what time

Or maybe Claire Balding just can't be arsed to check

Swimming related items tonight

a good day to be an australian, fantastic,
that and the slalom,

Just beat Zambia in the football as well, 6-5 after going behind 5-2

Are the medals 🥇 on a LV Louis Vuitton presentation board before being given to the medal winning champions ?

I think the confusion re peaty is that some sites show local times, some HB, so I too was confused and thought it was 7.44.

The Paris time is an hour later at 21.44

So they can't even use that as an excuse

What does HB mean ?!?

@murasaki

Goodness the BBC have a lot of love for Adam Peaty. Yes he is good yes he is going for the hat trick but the amount of time spent talking about him seems disproportionate.

Eh? I thought it was 8.44? They've just said 2 x semi's before then?

2 x 100 m back before peaty.

Here we go

Joint silver

Great swim Peaty

Blimey.
Thought he'd win. Oh well. He done good.
She needs to get a grip, too emotional.

Anyone else wondering why the Chinese team appear to be so much weaker .....

Why do all the male swimmers have earrings?

Well done, Peaty. That was a close race.

I love sports photography. This is NZ's Georgia-Rose Brown from earlier today.

Sorry, typo for gb. Anyway, great race.
