Titmus and Pidcock Triumph at Paris Olympics

Tom Pidcock achieved a remarkable comeback to win back-to-back gold medals in men's mountain biking at the Paris 2024 Olympics, overcoming a puncture and pit lane confusion to overtake Victor Koretzky in the final laps. In the women's swimming events, Summer McIntosh, Emma Weyant, and Katie Grimes performed strongly in the 400 IM preliminaries, with Weyant securing the top qualifying time. Mollie O'Callaghan won her first individual Olympic gold in the 200m freestyle, defeating her teammate Ariarne Titmus in a dramatic showdown. Titmus, however, successfully defended her gold in the 400m freestyle, with Katie Ledecky finishing third and McIntosh taking silver.
