Paris Olympics 2024: What is happening on day three of the Olympics?

Monday blues? Not in Paris!

It’s been a busy start to the Paris Olympics for athletes from Northern Ireland, and day three is no different.

Let’s take a look at who will be in action on day of competition.

At Le Defense arena, which has provided one of the best atmospheres at the Games, Ireland swimmer Daniel Wiffen is in action for the first time in the Games.

The 23-year-old is one of three world champions from Northern Ireland at the Olympics – along with gymnast Rhys McClenaghan and rower Hannah Scott, who have both already been in action.

Wiffen is set to be in the fourth 800m freestyle heat around 10:30 BST and will also compete in the 1500m on Friday. He is world champion in both events.

Danielle Hill, who was in Ireland’s women’s freestyle relay on Saturday, will go in heat three of the 100m backstroke at 10:15 BST.

Later in the pool, Sligo swimmer Mona McSharry is in contention to win Ireland’s first medal of the Games in the 100m breaststroke final.

After a disappointing heat, Rebecca Edwards will go in the repechage for Team GB in the women’s pair.

At the hockey, Ireland take on Australia while the Women’s Rugby Sevens team face Australia in their final Pool match before a placing match later on Monday.

Conor Hall will be competing for Team GB in the team archery competition while Ireland’s eventing jumping team round out their Games in the equestrian.

It’s been a difficult start in the ring for team Ireland but reigning Olympic champion Kellie Harrington will make her Paris bow against Italy’s Alessia Mesiano.
