Paris is experiencing heavy rain, impacting several Olympic events. The men’s street skateboarding competition has been rescheduled to Monday due to the downpour. At Roland Garros, most outdoor tennis courts are covered, causing delays for many matches. However, play continues on Court Philippe-Chatrier and Court Suzanne Lenglen, thanks to their retractable roofs. World No. 1 Iga Świątek, fresh from her French Open victory, easily secured the first set 6-2 against Romania’s Irina-Camelia Begu. Świątek, aiming for Olympic gold, follows in the footsteps of her father, Tomasz, who competed in rowing at the 1988 Seoul Olympics.
