There are only 11 days left until the opening of the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris.
As reported by İdman.biz, the competition in the French capital will be rich in historical events.
The stars heading to Paris to set records will try to write their names into Olympic history. Here are some of them.
NBA star Kevin Durant is already a three-time Olympic champion. If Team USA wins in Paris, Kevin will go down in history as the first Olympian to win four gold medals in team sports.
But his record may last only one day. If the French handball team wins, Nikola Karabatic will also be a four-time winner.
Jimmer Fredette will take part in the 3×3 competition in Paris 2024. When he appears in the game, he will immediately set an achievement. The basketball player will go down in history as the first player to play in the NBA and then participate in the Olympic Games in the 3×3 format.
Kelsey Plum and Jackie Young have a chance to become the first women’s basketball players to win Olympic gold in both 5×5 and 3×3.
Seven-time Olympic champions Isabelle Werth and Kate Ledecky have a chance to become the most decorated athletes in Olympic history. They will have a chance to catch up with Larisa Latynina, who has 9 gold medals. Werth can win two championships in equestrian sports. Ledecky will take part in 4 events in Paris. Three golds will give her a chance to set an absolute record.
Georgian shooter Nino Salukvadze will take part in her 10th Olympics. She will set an absolute record among athletes. The sniper, who debuted in Seoul in 1988, has since participated in every Olympic Games.
