Apparently the schedule would be too tight for Femke Bol to do both 400m and 400m hurdles. She felt more confident in 400m hurdles, but so has world record holder Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone. That is going to be a huge battle.
2024 Summer Olympics (Paris)
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
I think we’ll see a world record in the 400m hurdles.
That sounds like a safe bet.
I know and I don’t care. It’s boring. Show the events and get your “personalities” off the screen.
Answers on a post (card)
So, I hardly ever watch the Greco, so this will all be freestyle. I’ll get you to Friday & then update again later
On Monday, in women’s 68kg, Amit Elor
On Tuesday, in women’s 50kg, Sarah Hildebrandt
On Thursday, in men’s 57kg, Spencer Lee - 86kg, Aaron Brooks (beat the defending gold medalist to qualify)- women’s 57kg, Helen Maroulis (2016 gold medalist)
On Friday, in men’s 74kg, Kyle Dake (defending bronze medalist) - 125kg Mason Paris - women’s 62kg, Kayla Miracle
Has any competitor ever gone full left shark in that event and forgotten the routine? That would be amazing to watch.
Apologies if already posted...

Probably nothing to do with being a fascist and being buddy buddy with the fascist prime minister.
What happened with Fraser-Pryce and Richardson before warm ups??
This is some culture war bullshit from a very dodgy banned organisation. Why are they even giving prizes to Olympic athletes when they've had no involvement for years.
Yeah a calculated risk by Hudson-Smith and hope for his sake it pays off. Yes he maybe favourite on Skybet but Norman and Gardiner are threats along with Hall.
Yeah Italian federation already told them to feck off and keep their dirty money, on behalf of Carini as well, who at least has apologized for her behaviour on the ring and is generally stepping away from it and taking her distance from the weirdos crusade
Thanks.
Unpopular opinion: beach volleyball is actually a pretty boring sport to watch. Rallies tend to be short, rarely going over the net more than 3 times, and sometimes they even struggle to get their serves in. (I get that it’s meant to be appealing for a certain male demographic, but if all you want to do is admire the female form, there are better Olympic sports for that)
Wiffen should make it 7 medals in 7 consecutive days for Ireland today. With Harrington guaranteed another medal on Tuesday, we could do with McIlroy taking the golf to a playoff that rolls over til tomorrow so we can keep the streak going.
That Femke Bol leg! 
Anyone watching the hockey QF? India vs GB
India vs GB in men's hockey.
Indian player got sent off.

So unfortunate for Marin in the women's badminton. So close to a win then an injury robs it all away.
Anyone watching badminton? Heartbreaking for the injured spaniard Marin, sad to see
Didn't catch why, but probably ruins what was turning into a great game
1-0 India!
Indian player whacked a GB guy in the face with his stick, and it was ruled to be deliberate.
Games gone. That was a pretty standard move in hurling (at least I assume so after watching The Northman)
Definitely gonna watch Axelsens semi-final today. Probably one of our strongest gold hopes.
Yes since I live in Denmark and play badminton in my spare time I have to watch and root for him as well
Shericka Jackson has pulled out of the 200m, not been a great start for Jamaican sprinters.
Sherica pulls out of the 200m now, what’s going on with these Jamaican sprinters?
Looks ai generated
GBR should be winning this hockey match against 10 men India.
Pro-tip: the Paris 2024 app is actually pretty good for getting results and the schedule etc for all events. It updates with the latest results almost instantly. I’ve found that the normally good BBC sports website has been awful for the Olympics, presumably due to the overall coverage being much reduced now
The IOC is probably stealing all my data to sell, but I don’t really care.
