The Olympics are underway at Paris 2024 and many of the early medals will be won in the pool as the swimming events begin.
Swimming is one of the most watched sports at the Olympics and its finals are often prime-time viewing in the opening days of the Games, as big names clash again and again across several fiercely competitive events.
The United States are typically strong in the pool, but the rivalry with Australia is brewing and of the big contests to look out for will be the USA’s Katie Ledecky with Ariarne Titmus renewing their battles across the women’s 400m and 800m freestyle events. France’s Leon Marchand , meanwhile, may become the face of Paris 2024 if he can triumph in his four events, including the men’s 400m individual medley where he has taken Michael Phelps’ world record.
There is also plenty of British interest to look out for, as Adam Peaty bids to win a third successive gold medal in the 100m breaststroke. Duncan Scott , who won three individual silvers in Tokyo, and Tom Dean , the champion in men’s 200m freestyle, will be contenders for medals again while Team GB are set to be competitive across the relay events, too.
The swimming events are to take place in La Defense Arena in Paris, which is set to create an electric atmosphere as medals are won and records tumble.
