I think this ends in a world record with them both probably beating the old record. Behind them is a closer contest.

206 countries are competing in the Paris Olympics. Some nations will expect to take home 100 medals whilst others will be happy with one.

I think this comes down to Calderano, Harimoto, Jorgic, Lebrun, Qiu and Yun-ju. I think the pressure will be too much for young Lebrun

Keirin is the sprint event that most lends itself to a shock. It showed itself to be a hard track to overtake with its long turns.

Lisa Carrington (New Zealand)took gold in Tokyo to take her total to five Olympic gold medals along with her fifteen World Championship gold

Germany has a particular hold over this event, having won nine of the last ten renewals and eleven of the last thirteen World Championships.

McIntosh is maybe the form shooter of 2024 in any discipline whilst Duestad has been so consistently strong over the last few years.

This feels like a big four of Errigo, Kiefer, Thibus and Volpi. Fencing is not necessarily an event where the favourites prevail.

The final should be one of the anticipated matchups of the Olympics as Yifan/Qingchen take on Baek/Lee.

United States have won medals at every edition of this event since 2000 and they have a strong hand.

South Korea has won five of the last six Olympic competitions. They have the most strength in depth

This is mainly a battle of names that Olympic fans recognise. The top four from Tokyo could find themselves in those positions again

Perhaps their own challenge is against history and the legacy that this team creates moving forward. 

This feels destined to be a France v Denmark final. It has been at the last two Olympics. However, they are playing in the same group

France will line up with strong chances here in the form of the last two world champions. Dorian Coninx (France) won the title in 2023.
