The Paris Olympics are under way and Australia will be out to start with a bang as Ariarne Titmus, Sam Short and Elijah Winnington are among those to chase swimming medals. The Dolphins’ men and women will also renew each of their rivalries in the 4x100m freestyle relay events.

Grace Brown will hope to go at least one better after finishing fourth in the women’s individual time trial in Tokyo, while the Boomers face familiar foes Spain in their men’s basketball campaign and the Kookaburras kickstart their men’s hockey campaign.
