    Australia co-flag bearer and Paris 2024 dual gold medallist, Jessica Fox , is back in action, this time alongside sister Noemie Fox , in kayak cross time trial.

    Kaylee McKeown will aim to complete the first “double-double” by an Australian swimmer defending a pair of Olympic titles when she races in the 200m backstroke final, and will back up in the 200m IM.

    Athletics ramps up including with Tokyo bronze medallist Ashley Moloney in the men’s decathlon, while Nicola Olyslagers will be hoping to go one better than three years ago as women’s high jump kicks off.
