From our special correspondent in Tokyo,

Favorites that wallow, fifth places with the shovel, eliminations that we had not seen coming… It was really “like a Monday” today for the French athletes at the Olympic Games in Tokyo.

So yes, that day ended with two medals, but even then, it could have made two titles if things had been pinned otherwise.

On site, we got up to speed by making just bad choices of sites.

No, frankly, a very beautiful day, which is also the salt of the Games.

But all this is told much better on video.
