    Day four of the Paris 2024 Olympics is another jam-packed schedule with medals up for grabs in triathlon , gymnastics, fencing, judo, rugby, shooting, surfing, swimming and table tennis.

    But the men’s triathlon has been postponed at the last minute due to polluted water in the Seine River, with tests revealing water quality levels that were “still above the acceptable limits” for Tuesday’s race to go ahead on time and leaving athletes facing uncertainy.

    This afternoon sees the return of Simone Biles as the American superstar looks to win her fifth Olympics gold in the women’s team final, while Team GB gymnasts Becky Downie, Alice Kinsella, Georgia-Mae Fenton, Ruby Evans and Abi Martin compete for the podium.

    Andy Murray and Dan Evans will be back in tennis action after saving five match points in their opening win. In the pool, Britain’s men will try to claim 4x200m freestyle relay gold – a race they won in Tokyo . Duncan Scott, Matt Richards, James Guy and Tom Dean are out to defend their title.
