Team USA picked up its first gold at the Paris Olympics in the pool Saturday thanks to the men men’s 4x100m freestyle relay team, who beat out Australia by more than a second. Jack Alexy, Chris Guiliano, Hunter Armstrong and Caeleb Dressel posted a time of 3:09.28, a strong finish over the Australian quartet’s 3:10.35. Armstrong was the fastest of the quartet, finishing his leg in 46.75 seconds. For Armstrong, this was his second gold medal after a victory in the same event at the 2021 Tokyo Olympics. The victory tied Dressel, 23,  on eight golds with fellow American relay swimmer Matt Biondi. For Guiliano and Alexy, this was their first medal and their first Olympic race. The four exploded with joy when Dressel came into the finish, yelling “let’s go” and “woo!” It was the 11th gold the U.S. has won in the 4x100m freestyle relay race in the past 13 Olympics it has competed in, and was the team’s third in a row.

Monday’s slate for the Paris Olympics includes a blockbuster tennis match, a handful of the world’s biggest basketball stars, a couple of compelling swimming finals and a gymnastics showdown. Here’s a guide of what to look out for: The biggest highlight of the Roland Garros schedule is Rafael Nadal taking on Novak Djokovic in the second match of the day on Court Philippe Chatrier. It is the 60th meeting of the longtime tennis rivals, more than any other two men have played against each other in the sport’s Open era, which began in 1968. Djokovic, a 37-year-old from Serbia, has 24 Grand Slam titles, making him the only man in tennis history with more than Nadal’s 22. Cheered on by an adoring crowd, Nadal beat Marton Fucsovics of Hungary 6-1, 4-6, 6-4 in the first round Sunday. Nadal made a last-minute decision to remain in the singles bracket, a day after he won in doubles and said he wasn’t sure if he would participate in both events.
