The 2024 Summer Olympics are underway in Paris, France.
Australians will be competing in events including swimming, canoe slalom and hockey on day five of the Games — with the Matildas hoping to defeat USA to stay in the competition.
Because of the time difference, it'll be night time in Australia when many of those events kick off.
Here's what's on the schedule for day five of the Paris Olympics.
