The Olympic medal table
Skateboard (H): No final for Vincent Matheron in the park
At the gates of the final. Seventh in Park qualifying, Vincent Matheron will not be at the rendezvous of the final because it was necessary to finish among… the first six of the preliminary round. Rough for the Frenchman who totaled a score of 74.07. Unfortunately insufficient.
Decathlon: 48.08m for Mayer on the disc, the French still 4th before the pole vault
Kevin Mayer does not come back. The Frenchman could not do better than a throw at 48.08m in the discus throw. He pockets 830 points but still concedes points to Damian Warner, author of a throw at 48.67m. After seven events, Kevin Mayer is fourth in the overall decathlon standings with 6157 points. Warner still leads the competition with 6610 points, ahead of the Australian Moloney (6359 pts) and the other Canadian Lepage (6265 pts). Now it’s time for the pole vault at 5:45 am.
” class=”lazy”/>Decathlon: third failed attempt for Mayer
The Frenchman bites his last attempt and throws his disc out of the zone. Kevin Mayer is satisfied with a throw at 48.08m and pockets 830 points. Damian Warner took 843 points with a throw to 48.67m.
Athlé (H): Second try bitten for Melvin Raffin
From now on, there is an emergency for the French. Melvin Raffin just bit for the second time and still has no mark. He will therefore play everything on his third attempt.
Decathlon: 48.08m for Kevin Mayer on the disc
While Damian Warner failed to improve his score on the second attempt, Kevin Mayer has managed to do better. On his second throw, the Frenchman threw his disc at 48.08m. It goes back.
” class=”lazy”/>Athlé (H): First failed attempt for Melvin Raffin in the triple jump
Bad start for the Frenchman in this triple jump final. Melvin Raffin bit his first try and doesn’t mark. Two more attempts for the Habs. It is the Portuguese Pichardo who leads the competition with a jump to 17.61m.
” class=”lazy”/>Decathlon: 46.59 for Mayer on his first attempt
Kevin Mayer started the discus competition and his first attempt fell to 46.59m. An average throw more for the Frenchman given his past performances and his current form. There are still two attempts to improve this mark.
Decathlon: 48.67m for Warner on the discus
The Canadian is flying over the decathlon for the moment. On his first attempt at the discus throw, Damian Warner just landed a big mark with a throw at 48.67m. Kevin Mayer should follow very quickly.
Dive (F): Alais Kalonji 16th after three dives
The Frenchwoman has 154.80 points after three dives and is in 16th place. As a reminder, you have to finish among the top twelve to reach the final. Alais Kalonji has two more dives to make up for a 22-point delay over Briton Toulson, currently twelfth.
Karate (F): Alexandra Feracci 4th after the first kata
The Karate competition is launched and honor to women. Alexandra Ferraci, in Group B, is fourth after the first kata. The Frenchwoman is currently competing in the second kata. Note that you must finish among the first three to continue the adventure.
” class=”lazy”/>Athlé (H): the final of the triple jump in 10 minutes
The grand finale of the triple jump begins in about ten minutes. A French will be hired, it is Melvin Raffin. Not favorite, the Habs arrive without pressure on this final.
Skateboard (M): 74.07 for Vincent Matheron on his second pass
Park’s qualifications are ongoing and Vincent
Matheron has just made his first two passages in the third group. The only French entered signed a 70.04 on his first run then a 74.07 on the second, which places him provisionally fourth. For the moment, the Habs would qualify in the final but there are still five competitors in the fourth group.
” class=”lazy”/>Heptathlon: the Dutch Vetter still in the lead after the length
Four points separate Anouk Vetter from Nafissatou Thiam. With a jump to 6.60m in length, the Belgian Thiam has caught up with the Dutch Vetter (6.47m). The Batavian still leads the heptathlon but with only four points ahead of the Belgian (4965 pts against 4961). Now it’s time for the penultimate round, the javelin throw (from 5:30 am).

Dive (F): 50.40 for Kalonji on his first attempt
The Frenchwoman is engaged in the semi-final of the high-flying 10m. For his first dive, Alais Kalonji obtained 50.40 points. A very average score which places her in 16th place among the eighteen semi-finalists.
Athlé (F): The French women in the final on the 4x100m relay
Carolle Zahi, Cynthia Leduc, Gémina Joseph and Orlann Ombissa-Dzangue took fourth place in the first semi-final with a time of 42”68.
