The flying mullet, Rohan Browning, will take to the track when the fastest men and women in the world lead a Super Saturday of Sport on Day 8 of the Olympic Games Paris 2024.
Browning will fire out of the blocks in Round 1 of the Men’s 100m sprint, alongside reigning world champion Noah Lyles (USA) and the fastest man this year Kishane Thompson (Jamaica).
In the night session, get ready to cheer on Bree Masters, who is the first Australian in 24 years to qualify for the Olympic 100m semi-finals, featuring alongside Sha’Carri Richardson (USA) and Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce (Jamaica).
Out to strike more gold in Paris will be our leading Women in the water, when Arnie and Lani – Ariarne Titmus, Lani Pallister (800m freestyle) and Kaylee McKeown (200m Individual Medley) make a splash at the swimming. Jess Fox is joined by her sister Noemie for the Women’s Kayak Cross. And at the regatta, our Rowsellas Women’s Eight and Tara Rigney will race to hold our first Rowing gold for Paris 2024.
The voice of cycling, Phil Liggett, and Tour de France champion Cadel Evans will call the action in the Men’s Road Race, plus Lebron James and his superstar Team USA Men’s Basketball side take on Puerto Rico.
While at their most famous sites, we get a double chance to beat France. Our Men’s Beach Volleyball team are looking to crash the party underneath the Eiffel Tower, and our Women’s 3×3 Basketball aim to follow suit at La Concorde.
Screening on Channel 9 and 9Gem, and streaming every moment on 9Now LIVE as well as available for replays.
