One of the hallmarks of the Olympic Games — the men’s 100m final — will take place at the Stade de France in Paris today.
Italy’s Marcell Jacobs is attempting to become only the third man to win multiple 100m titles, following in the footsteps of Carl Lewis and Usain Bolt. But he faces competition from the likes of America’s Noah Lyles and Jamaica’s Kishane Thompson.
The race is scheduled for 9.50pm local time (3.50pm EDT).
There are also medal events in the women’s high jump (1.55pm EDT) and men’s hammer throw (2.30pm).
