Good morning! It’s day 10 of the 2024 Paris Olympics.
Today marks the last day of artistic gymnastics competition from the Bercy Arena and the women’s balance beam and floor exercise finals are the main events. That’s partly because Simone Biles will be looking to continue her imperious form and add more gold medals to her tally in both events after taking three in her first three events at these Games. She’ll be joined on the beam by Suni Lee, herself on a comeback journey, and by Jordan Chiles on the floor. The beam event is at 6:38 a.m. ET and 12:38 p.m. local time, while the floor exercise is at 8:24 a.m. ET and 2:24 p.m. local time.
Elsewhere, with track and field events well underway, Team USA’s Valerie Allman will be hoping to spin up a storm in the women’s discus event at 2:30 p.m. ET and 8:30 p.m. local time. That follows the men’s pole vault final, at 1:00 p.m. ET and 7:00 p.m. local time, where Sam Kendricks will be hoping to take home a medal. He’ll have to outjump Sweden’s record-breaker Mondo Duplantis, though. On the track, the women’s 5,000m final is at 3:15 p.m. ET and 9:15 p.m. local time; and the women’s 800m medal event is at 3:47 p.m. ET and 9:47 p.m. local time.
Team USA is going for the top spot in the women’s 3×3 basketball tournament: their semifinal game against Spain is at 11:30 a.m. ET and 5:30 p.m. local time, with the gold medal game at 3:00 p.m. ET and 9:00 p.m. local time. The men’s final also happens today a half hour later than the women’s final.
In non-medal events, Chase Budinger and Miles Evans are among the American beach volleyball pairs to play today. They face Norway’s defending champions at 8:00 a.m. ET and 2:00 p.m. local time. And it’s also the first day of Olympic wrestling, with 20-year-old Californian and two-time world champion (in the 72kg category) Amit Elor making her Olympic debut in the women’s freestyle (68kg/149 lbs).
Here’s what else to look out for today:
