Team GB look for more medals at the Olympics on Friday as Paris 2024 rolls on with another hectic schedule in the French capital.
Friday’s highlights
Athletics finally takes the stage at the Paris Olympics and the first round of the women’s 100m (10.50am BST) will be one of the events to watch. American star Sha’Carri Richardson carries great expectations but so do Jamaica’s Shericka Jackson and the great Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce, still running fast at 37. British duo Dina Asher-Smith and Daryll Neita will hope to progress smoothly to the semi-finals.
Keely Hodgkinson will make her first appearance of the Games in the first round of the women’s 800m (6.45pm), while the first half of the men’s decathlon will take place throughout the day with Canada’s reigning champion Damian Warner back to defend his title.
For Team GB, Jack Laugher and Anthony Harding will dive for glory in the men’s 3m synchro final (10am), before Emily Craig and Imogen Grant try to claim the lightweight double sculls gold (11.22am) after the podium eluded them by a hundredth of a second in Tokyo. Emma Wilson is guaranteed a women’s windsurfing medal but the colour will be determined this afternoon (from 1pm - medal race mid-afternoon), Bryony Page also has high hopes of trampoline gold (12.50pm) after capturing silver and bronze in Rio and Tokyo, while Tokyo champion Bethany Shriever was the top qualifier for the women’s BMX racing final (8.35pm).
In the swimming pool, Britain’s Ben Proud has a real chance of gold up against Australia’s Cameron McEvoy in the men’s 50mfreestyle final (7.30pm), Honey Osrin goes against Australian favourite Kaylee McKeown in the women’s 200m backstroke final (7.36pm), while Duncan Scott and Tom Dean will chase Leon Marchand in the men’s 200m individual medley final (7.43pm).
