10:30 a.m. Viktorija Senkutė will take to the rowing course, who will try to row to the final in a single boat.

Our country’s athlete, who started powerfully, had no major problems with her rivals both in the qualification and in the quarter-finals, and we hope that our athlete will do just as well in the semi-finals.

Lithuania needs to finish in the top three out of six participants and the ticket to the final is guaranteed.

10:50 a.m. 27-year-old Giedrius Bieliauskas will also try to reach the final in a single-seater boat. At the quarter-final stage, the Lithuanian was second in his swim and that was enough to get a ticket to the semi-finals.

On Thursday, the national team of Lithuanian trios will continue their confrontation in the 3×3 basketball tournament. Having already suffered two defeats in the tournament, Lithuania will try to straighten up and escape from the outsider zone.

In their debut match, our team lost to Olympic champions Latvia 14:21, and on Wednesday, after a tough fight, to France 20:21.

2:35 p.m. The national team coached by Dainius Novicks will face Poland, who already have a victory. Our neighbors beat the USA basketball players 19:17, but lost to France 19:21.

Rested Lithuanians at 8:05 p.m. will run to the field again and wrestle with the USA team. This one has no wins either. In both cases, the Lithuanians have nowhere to retreat and must win, otherwise they won’t be able to take at least 6th place among the 8 teams, which guarantees the playoffs.

10:11 p.m. Kotryna Teterevkova, our last swimming representative at the Olympics, will appear in the Olympic pool. The member of the Lithuanian national team, who is training in the USA, will swim in the 200 m breaststroke final.

On Wednesday, she finished seventh overall in the semifinals. Mūsiškė will try to become the first Lithuanian swimmer at the Paris Games to win an award – no Lithuanian swimmer managed to do that, and the closest to the medal was Danas Rapšys, who took 5th place.

ICLA class 6 sailor Viktorija Andrulytė and Rytis Jasiūnas, who is already fighting in the iQFoil windsurfing class in stages 17-20, will hold their battles all day on Wednesday in Marseille.
