Fixes spelling to closest in second paragraph
PARIS, Aug 5 (Reuters) -One of the main pain points of the Games - the river Seine's water quality - wasback in focus after the mixed triathlon relay went ahead early on Monday after training wascancelled a day earlier.
Noah Lyles of the U.S. wonthe 100 metres at the track onSunday by the finest of margins in one of the closest sprint finals the Olympics has ever seen.
Here's what you need to know about the Olympics on Monday.
SEINE BACK IN FOCUS
The mixed relay triathlon got underway as planned in Paris on Monday, after testing the water quality of the Seine.
Training sessions in the river were cancelled on Sunday, while Belgium pulled out of the race after one of their athletes, Claire Michel, fell ill, the Belgian Olympic Committee said. Michel competed in last Wednesday's women's triathlon.
SURFING FOR GOLD
Gabriel Medina goes into the Games' finals on Monday as favourite to win gold as the Brazilian looks to add surfing's rarest prize to his glittering career and to a viral Olympic moment earlier in the competition.
Medina, already a superstar back home, shot to new levels of international fame a week ago when a photograph of him kicking off a wave - seemingly levitating a metre above the water, arm extended and finger pointing to the sky - went global.
LYLES BY A WHISKER
After all the talk and all the hype, Noah Lyles delivered when it mattered most when he won a superlative Olympic 100 metres final by five thousandths of a second to give the United States the title for the first time in 20 years.
In one of the most competitive finals of all time, there was a blanket finish, with the stadium scoreboard initially flashing a photo finish for the first seven athletes.
UKRAINE'S MAHUCHIKH SOARS TO GOLD
Ukraine's Yaroslava Mahuchikh won the women's Olympic high jump gold medal, clearing two metres in front of an adoring crowd at the Stade de France.
Mahuchikh fled her home in Dnipro after Russia's invasion of Ukraine in 2022 but has kept her competitive career going and claimed Olympic gold weeks after breaking a world record that had stood since 1987 with a leap of 2.10.
