Australia’s golden rush continues as we head into Day 9 of the Olympic Games Paris 2024, live and free on the 9Network and 9Now. 

Don’t blink or you’ll miss it, the pinnacle event of the Athletics, the fastest man in the world will be crowned in the Men’s 100m Final. Looking to book their spot in the great race will be reigning world champion, USA’s Noah Lyles, alongside Kishane Thompson and Oblique Seville of Jamaica. Tokyo 2020 gold medalist, Italy’s Lamont Marcell Jacobs, will be fighting to defend his title, and if he does he will only be the third to join the elite club alongside the greats of Usain Bolt and Carl Lewis. 

Australia’s hopes in the Women’s High Jump Final rest with Tokyo 2020 silver medalist Nicola Olyslagers and Eleanor Patterson. 

Australia’s fastest woman Torrie Lewis will lead the day session of the Athletics when she makes her Olympic Games debut in Round 1 of the Women’s 200m alongside Mia Gross. 

It’s the final day in the pool, and a relay duel will cap off one of the most successful swimming campaigns for an Australian Dolphins team ever, when our Men’s & Women’s 4x100m Medley Relay teams and Women’s 50m Freestyle sprinters fight hard. Our women’s team are the defending champions and have not missed a medal in this event since 1992. 

The final round of Men’s Golf tees off with Australia’s Jason Day and Min Woo Lee in a field of some of the best golfers in the world including Jon Rahm (Spain), Xander Schauffele (USA), Rory McIlroy (Ireland) and Tommy Fleetwood (Great Britain). 

Also featuring on Day 9, Australia’s best female cyclists, Grace Brown, Ruby Roseman-Gannon and Lauretta Hanson, compete for a place on the podium in the Women’s Road Race. The Opals go head-to-head against host nation France in the Women’s Basketball, the Stingers take on Hungary in the Women’s Water Polo, and the Kookaburras battle to keep their Paris 2024 campaign alive facing Netherlands in the Quarter-Final of the Men’s Hockey.

Screening on Channel 9 and 9Gem, and streaming every moment on 9Now LIVE as well as available for replays.
