Paris returns to host the Olympics for the third time in its history, after 100 years since it last hosted the Summer Games. Once again, fans are eager to watch the games after the Tokyo Olympics, which took place just three years ago behind closed doors amid the pandemic. The official opening ceremony kicks off tonight and will continue for 16 days until Sunday, August 11. However, some events have already started as usual before the opening.

OPENING CEREMONY- The ceremony will begin at 7:30 pm Paris time (8:30 pm Cairo time) and is expected to last for over three hours. Paris aims to organize a completely different opening ceremony from anything the world has seen before. For the first time ever, the opening ceremony will not take place inside a sports stadium but rather along the Seine River. Approximately 326k spectators will line the riverbanks to watch athletes and performers sail from east to west along a six-kilometer route, passing famous landmarks of the French capital, starting from the Austerlitz Bridge, through Notre-Dame Cathedral, and ending near the Eiffel Tower.

WHERE TO WATCH- BeIN Sports holds the exclusive rights to broadcast the Olympic Games in the Middle East and North Africa.

TOP SECRET- Organizers have imposed strict secrecy around the details of the opening ceremony, but a few small hints have emerged. Rumors suggest that Canadian-French singer Celine Dion will perform Edith Piaf’s “Hymne à l’amour” during the opening ceremony, despite her recent battle with stiff person syndrome, Le Parisien reported. French President Emmanuel Macron said that Dion’s presence in the opening ceremony, if it happens, would be “ fantastic news,” without confirming her participation. Lady Gaga was also spotted in Paris a few days ago, fueling speculation about her performing in the event.

The Olympic Torch on its way to the Seine banks: The Olympic torch continues its journey across France toward the capital city. Tonight, after a trip lasting over two months and involving around 10k torchbearers, it will finally settle along the Seine. Among those who have already carried the torch are former French football star Thierry Henry and Korean pop sensation Jin. Today, American rapper Snoop Dogg and the world’s longest rowing boat are expected to participate in carrying the torch.

FLAG BEARERS- Following tradition, the flag parade will start with Greece, the birthplace of the Olympic Games. Next comes the refugee team, represented by Syrian taekwondo athlete Yahya Al Ghotany and Cameroonian boxer Cindy Ngamba. French discus throw champion Melina Robert-Michon and swimmer Florent Manaudou carry the French flag. Basketball legend LeBron James and tennis player Coco Gauff will bear the flag for the United States. Egypt has chosen silver medalist at Tokyo and modern pentathlete Ahmed Elgendy, along with bronze medalist at Rio, weightlifter Sara Samir, to carry their flag. Russian and Belarusian athletes will participate as “neutral individual athletes” due to the ongoing doping-related sanctions imposed on both countries since 2020.”

POLITICS AND SECURITY CHALLENGES- The Olympic Games are coming after a few weeks of the French legislative elections, which did not result in a decisive majority for any of the political parties in the country. This prompted President Macron on Tuesday to announce that a new government would not be formed until the end of the Olympic Games. The current government faces a significant challenge in securing the games, which will host many outdoor sports events at Paris’s famous landmarks. France is preparing to deploy around 45k police officers, 10k military personnel, and 22k private security personnel. Additionally, Paris has reportedly received foreign security reinforcements, estimated at about 2k police and military forces, to secure the City of Light, which is experiencing heightened security measures not seen since World War II, The Guardian wrote.

BY THE NUMBERS- 10.5k athletes will participate in 32 sports, comprising 329 events. The competitions will take place at 41 venues, including the Palace of Versailles, the Eiffel Tower Stadium, Grand Palais, Place de la Concorde, and Pont Alexandre III Bridge. In addition, the surfing competitions will be held on Tahiti Island in French Polynesia, south of the Pacific Ocean, approximately 15k kms from Paris.

FOR THE FIRST TIME-

  • Breaking enters the Olympics as an official sport for the first time in history.
  • The Olympic events will conclude for the first time with the women’s marathon on August 11, rather than the men’s marathon as usual.
  • Also for the first time, more than 20,000 amateur runners will be allowed to participate in a marathon race along the same official route, scheduled for the evening of August 10 after the men’s marathon concludes.
  • Gender parity will be fully achieved for the first time ever, with nearly a 50-50 participation ratio among the 10.5k athletes.

IT WOULD HAVE BEEN THE FIRST TIME: Paris 2024 was supposed to witness the first participation of men in artistic swimming after World Aquatics approved the inclusion of a maximum of two men in women’s teams participating in the Olympics, which consist of eight female athletes. American artistic swimmer Bill May, aged 45, was slated to make history being part of the US team. However, the US team’s coach decided last month to exclude him for technical reasons, leaving American participation and that of all other teams in the Paris Olympics limited to women.

MEDAL TABLE BATTLE- After snatching the top spot in the medal table from China on the last day of the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, expectations point to the United States reclaiming the lead. According to a study by Nielsen Gracenote, the United States is expected to win 39 gold medals and a total of 112 medals, followed by China with 34 gold medals and 86 total medals. Britain, France, and Australia follow in order.”

TOP ATHLETES TO WATCH- From the thrilling comeback of Simone Biles to the last dance of Ma Long, and from the unprecedented glory of Ledecky and Eliud Kipchoge to the anticipated rise of Erriyon Knigton and Noah Lyles, media outlets are curating their lists of top athletes to follow at Paris 2024. For some, it will be their debut on this grand stage, while for others, it marks their final bow. Read more about top athletes to watch at Paris 2024.

MADE TO BE BROKEN- Sweden’s Mondo Duplantis has been breaking world records time after time. For the pole vaulter with a 6.24 m world record under his belt, breaking the 6.03 m Olympic record in Paris will be like a walk in the park. In fact, track and field and Olympic pool are waiting for many records to be broken, some have stood for more than 30 years.

OUR CHANCES AT PARIS- Egypt is sending its largest-ever delegation, a 164-strong athletes competing in 22 sports. Among them are 5 athletes who have previously won Olympic medals: Alaa Abouelkassem, Sara Samir, Ahmed Elgendy, Seif Eissa, and Mohamed Ibrahim Kisho. Officials hope to achieve 6 or more medals, but we believe that achieving 4-6 medals would be a commendable accomplishment based on the following considerations:

  • WEIGHTLIFTING- Sara Samir may have the best chance of securing a gold medal — or at least a bronze — in the 81 kg weight category if she repeats her personal best. Karim Abokahla in the 89 kg category and Neama Said in the 71 kg category also have very good chances to compete for a bronze.
  • FENCING- The Egyptian team includes several qualified fencers who could clinch one or two medals if the draw favors them. With Ziad Elsissy, Alaa Abouelkassem, Mohamed Elsayed, Mohamed Hamza and the rest, the prospects are promising.
  • HANDBALL- After finishing fourth in Tokyo, hopes are renewed for Egypt’s handball team to win our first team medal in history. However, these hopes largely diminished after the team fell in the “group of death”.
  • TAEKWONDO- We hope that the draw and world rankings favor Seif Eissa to repeat his Tokyo achievement and secure a new medal.
  • WRESTLING- Despite winning bronze in Tokyo, Mohamed Kisho’s chances in the 67 kg weight category appear lower this time. As for Abdellatif Manea, he might contend for a medal if the draw smiles upon him.
  • MODERN PENTATHLON- Ahmed Elgendy, with his high world ranking and international experience, is once again a contender for a medal. Mohanad Shaban could also surprise us.
  • SHOOTING- Egypt is sending 12 shooters, led by Azmy Mehelba, who is always a strong candidate. Chances are low but winning a medal would be the most delightful surprise for the Egyptian delegation.
