After six days of watching the swimmers, cyclists and rowers do their thing, the track and field athletes will finally take centre stage on Day 7 of the Rio Olympics.

Just about everything, from discus to heptathlon, shot put to sprinting, will be on display at the Olympic stadium as the athletics meet finally kicks into gear today.

After starting yesterday, the track cycling will truly kick into gear with the women’s team sprint and men’s team pursuit finals highlighting the second day of competition in the velodrome.

Football returns with the women’s quarter-finals; don’t miss the Matildas looking for a place in the last four.

Both archery and judo finish up today, whereas trampoline gymnastics begins its two-day stint at Rio. Diving is back after a day off, while the men’s golf will continue.

Rowing’s penultimate day includes the men’s and women’s finals for the lightweight double sculls, and, as usual, swimming will be the last major event of the night, headlined by the men’s 50m freestyle final.
