Paris Olympics 2024 so far
U.S. athletes are heading to the Paris Olympics to compete on one of the biggest international stage in sports. After heartbreak and injuries in trials, U.S. teams are set for men’s and women’s basketball, women’s and men’s soccer, men’s and women’s gymnastics, swimming and more.
New this year: Breaking or break dancing is coming to the Olympic stage, while Paris also has a bold plan to host swimming events in the Seine.
Athletes to watch: Previous gold medal Olympians are back, including gymnast Simone Biles, swimmer Katie Ledecky, sprinters Noah Lyles and Sha’Carri Richardson. Don’t forget to include 16-year-old athletes Hezly Rivera and Quincy Wilson.
Who you’ll miss: Soccer star Alex Morgan was left out of USWNT’s roster, and WNBA’s Caitlin Clark also won’t be competing, despite their popularity.
