Biles Targets Two More Golds as Duplantis Eyes World Record
Simone Biles, the legendary gymnast, is poised to add two more Olympic gold medals to her illustrious career at the Paris Games. After claiming her third gold in the vault, Biles is now targeting victories in the balance beam and floor exercises. Her remarkable achievements come after overcoming the mental health challenges that plagued her in Tokyo.
Biles's dominance in gymnastics is undeniable. She has won seven Olympic golds, making her the most decorated American gymnast in history. Her resilience and determination have inspired countless athletes and fans worldwide.
Another star to watch is Armand Duplantis, the Swedish pole vault king. Duplantis has set eight world records and is aiming for another in Paris. His dominance in the event has been unparalleled for the past five years.
The Paris Games also feature Sifan Hassan, the Dutch runner who is chasing a golden treble in the 5,000m, 10,000m, and marathon. Hassan is a formidable competitor and will face stiff competition from Kenya's Faith Kipyegon.
Track cycling makes its debut at the National Velodrome, with the first gold medal up for grabs in the women's team sprint. Britain, a powerhouse in cycling, will be looking to continue its dominance despite the absence of retired stars Laura and Jason Kenny.
The badminton competition concludes with the finals of the men's and women's singles. China's He Bingjiao will face South Korea's An Se-young for women's gold, while defending men's champion Viktor Alexsen of Denmark will take on Thailand's Kunlavut Vitidsarn.
In football, the semi-finals will see Morocco face Spain and France take on Egypt. The mixed relay in the triathlon will also take place, after pollution levels in the River Seine were deemed acceptable for the swimming leg.
