The 2024 Olympic Games has begun in Paris as 205 teams battle for 329 gold medals across 40 sports.
Athletics is always the biggest draw of the Olympics and will again be the most watched sport, with stars of the track and field often becoming the faces of the Games.
The blue-riband event is the 100m finals and both races are shaping up to be fascinating this time around. American world champion Noah Lyles goes up against Jamaica’s newest star, Kishane Thompson, while in the women’s race it’s USA v Jamaica again as Lyles’ teammate Sha’Carri Richardson faces competition from Shericka Jackson and the great Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce, still running fast at 37.
There will be plenty of British interest throughout, with Dina Asher-Smith and Daryll Neita set to go in both the 100m and 200m sprints. Keely Hodgkinson is the favourite to win gold in the 800m and will be joined by teenaged sensation Phoebe Gillin the event. Molly Caudery is a medal hope in the pole vault while Katarina Johnson-Thompson looks to become Olympic champion in the heptathlon.
On the men’s side, Matthew Hudson-Smith has a great chance of gold in the 400m, Josh Kerr will renew his rivalry with Jakob Ingebrigtsen in the 1500m, and Phil Sesemann heads a strong contingent of marathon runners.
