Live Updates from Various Olympic Events
In a thrilling turn of events at the Olympics, Spain found themselves up against tough competition in the second set of their match. Tennis legend Rafael Nadal dropped his serve in disappointing fashion, allowing the Argentines to consolidate their lead as Gonzalez held for a 3-0 advantage.
Meanwhile, in the boxing ring, Britain’s Charley Davison suffered a loss on points to Turkey’s Hatice Akbas in the 54kg weight division, adding to the drama of the day’s events.
On a brighter note, Team USA’s Gretchen Walsh set the tone for an exciting night of swimming by setting a new Olympic record for the 100m butterfly in the event’s first semi-final. The 21-year-old from Nashville cruised to victory in 55:38, leaving her opponents in her wake and igniting anticipation for the rest of the evening’s swimming events at the ParÃs La Defense Arena.
And in a stunning display of skill and determination, France’s Antoine Dupont led his team to gold medal glory in a thrilling rugby sevens final. The Six Nations-winning skipper made a bold decision to skip the 2024 tournament to focus on sevens, and it paid off as he sprinted down the wing, set up a try, and scored two of his own to secure a 28-7 victory over unbeaten Fiji.
With such intense competition and unforgettable moments, the Olympic Games continue to captivate audiences around the world.
