Saturday July 24, day 1

The French of the day

Five podium chances today if we want to count large.

But shouldn't we be optimistic, at least on the first day?

  • Shirine Boukli in judo -48 kg (but she has a crazy draw)

  • Lisa Barbelin and Jean-Charles Valladont in mixed archery

  • Coraline Vitalis in individual female epee

  • Boladé Apithy in individual men's saber

  • Océane Muller in a 10-meter air rifle

The star of the day

After crushing the Tour de France, Tadej Pogaçar didn't bother to take a vacation or anything like that.

No, the Slovenian prodigy flew directly to the site of Fuji, where guess what, the mountainous course suits him perfectly.

He will meet there his compatriot Roglic, who we imagine revenge after his abandonment in the first week of the Tour.

So there is only one place left on the box for the rest of the peloton ...

The medal that we do not (really) expect

What if Luka Mkheidze, our male representative in the -60 kg wrestling event, signed the first real beautiful story of the fortnight, he who arrived from Georgia at 13 without imagining for a moment competing for France at the Olympics?

The other events not to be missed

»Novak Djokovic and Naomi Osaka enter tennis

»France-United States in volleyball, where it will be better to start than four years ago (12:40)

»France-Argentina among the boys of the hand, where the competition is very stiff (10 hours)

The little reading tip of the day

Three exactly, it's the beginning, we have plenty of papers in store.

Rest assured, we will quickly run out
