Description

Ireland have a second gold medal at the 2024 Olympic Games - Gavin reports back from the scene at which Paul O’Donovan and Fintan McCarthy confirmed their status as Olympic and Irish greats.


It was a tough night for the Irish mixed relay team, who missed out on a place in their final. We discuss whether Rhasidat Adeleke was right to sit it out, and pay tribute to Thomas Barr on his farewell to the Olympic Games.


Sinead reports back from Versailles, the opulent setting for the team showjumping event, at which Ireland let slip a genuine medal chance. Plus, there was agony and heartbreak for Ireland’s sailors, who finished fourth after the final race in the men’s skiff.
