While the star power of years gone by may be missing, that arguably sets up a more intriguing race, with a number of true contenders set to line up.<\/p>\n<p>Italy\u2019s Marcell Jacobs is the defending champion but he\u2019s largely struggled since his 2021 glory, with regular injuries seeing him fail to regain his gold medal form. A 9.92-second run in June was his best effort this season, which may suggest that he is returning to form, but he will need to show massive improvement if he is to trouble the best of the best.<\/p>\n<p>Leading that elite group is Jamaica\u2019s Kishane Thompson. The 23-year-old owns the best time of the season, with a blistering 9.77 just five weeks ago at the Jamaican trials in what was an unexpectedly good performance from the youngster. That\u2019s tipped the competition on its head and given the likes of Noah Lyles and Oblique Seville a lot to think about.<\/p>\n<p>Seville, a fellow Jamaican, was second at the Jamaican trials, recording a season best of 9.82, inserting himself as one to watch in Monday morning\u2019s showdown, but the second-fastest time of the season belongs to Kenya\u2019s Ferdinand Omanyala. Omanyala ran a blistering 9.79 in the altitude of Kenya \u2014 an eye opening result \u2014 and if he can replicate that in Paris, he may well be leaving with gold.<\/p>\n<p>Lyles, the bronze winner in the 200m in Tokyo, has been working hard on his 100m since 2021 and it has been paying dividends, having won last year\u2019s world championships in a time of 9.83, and he\u2019s topped that time this season, with a 9.81 just over one month ago.<\/p>\n<p>The true gold medal contenders drop off after that, with the likes of Benjamin Richardson, Fred Kerley and Akani Simbine not having reached the elite level in 2024. Young British sprinter Louie Hinchliffe showed off his potential in qualifiers, recording the best time of 9.98, but he\u2019s likely not ready for this stage just yet.<\/p>\n<p>Thompson looks to be a class above in 2024 and is the justified favourite. At a price of $2.20, I am happy betting on the young Jamaican to break through at the highest level after what we saw in the Jamaican trials.<\/p>\n<p>Outside of Thompson, it\u2019s Omanyala who represents the best value. Gold looks to be out of his reach, but a repeat of his lightning-fast run just over a month ago may well earn him a medal on Monday morning.<\/p>\n<p><em>Best:<\/em> To Win Gold \u2014 Kishane Thompson ($1.57)<br \/>\n<em>Value:<\/em> To Win A Medal \u2014 Ferdinand Omanyala ($7.50)<\/p>\n                    <div class=\"tip-button\">\n          <a class=\"track-me btn-standard bet-now-btn\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tab.co.nz\/sports\/olympics\/athletics\/athletics-men-s-100-metres\/599e8810-7a15-42e8-9e49-ef117523b3c2\" target=\"_blank\"\n            data-tr-event=\"blog\" data-tr-method=\"bet now button\" data-tr-action=\"open sport_event\" data-tr-label=\"599e8810-7a15-42e8-9e49-ef117523b3c2\" data-tr-event-id=\"599e8810-7a15-42e8-9e49-ef117523b3c2\"             >Bet Now: Men&#8217;s 100m Final<\/a>\n        <\/div>\n          <\/div> <!-- end tip-content -->\n  <\/div> <!-- end tip-type-racing-sports -->\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-entain-racing-sports-tip\">\n  <section class=\"entain-block tips-block\" id=\"rBxSZHjyxsJ7Y\">\n  <div class=\"tip-type-racing-sport hoverable open\">\n    <div class=\"tip-header\">\n      <div class=\"tip-header-icon\">\n        <div class=\"tip-category\">\n                      <div class=\"icon icon__svg\"><svg width=\"32\" height=\"32\" fill=\"currentColor\" version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\"><!----><use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/www.tab.co.nz\/punters\/wp-content\/themes\/punters\/assets\/brand-icons\/tabnz\/svg-sports-icon.svg?v=20260707b#basketball\"><\/use><\/svg><\/div>\n                  <\/div>\n      <\/div>\n      <div class=\"tip-header-meta\">\n        <div class=\"tip-header-meta__inner\">\n          <div class=\"title\">Women\u2019s Basketball: Japan $3.60 v Belgium $1.28<\/div>\n                      <div class=\"bet-on\">Belgium -8.5 ($1.90)<\/div>\n                  <\/div>\n              <\/div> <!-- end tip-header-meta -->\n    <\/div> <!-- end tip-header -->\n    <div class='tip-content'>\n            <p><em>Sunday, 9:00pm<\/em><br \/>\nHeading into the final game of group play, Japan are 0-2 and at the bottom of Group C. A win will give them a chance of finishing as one of the third-place qualifiers to head through to the quarterfinals, but their form suggests that it may be a difficult result to pull off. After a 26-point defeat against the USA in their opening game, the Japanese couldn\u2019t respond in their second game, falling to Germany 64-75. Maki Takada has been red-hot in Paris, averaging 19.5 points per game so far, but the offensive support hasn\u2019t been there, and that will hurt Japan\u2019s chances on Sunday night.<\/p>\n<p>Belgium are also 0-2 and staring down the barrel of elimination in Paris. Their first game against Germany couldn\u2019t have been much more disappointing, looking disconnected on defence and struggling to hit their outside shots, falling to a 69-83 defeat despite being sizeable favourites. They shored things up a little in their next outing, taking on the always-dominant USA, as Julie Vanloo, Antonia Delaere and Emma Meesseman combined for 51 points, but they had no answer for the stacked lineup of the Americans as they fell to a 74-87 defeat. And while we haven\u2019t seen an impressive display from the Belgians yet, they are a class above compared to their Japanese counterparts. These teams met in a friendly just two weeks ago, with Belgium prevailing 75-65, and I expect a similar result to play out on Sunday night.<\/p>\n                    <div class=\"tip-button\">\n          <a class=\"track-me btn-standard bet-now-btn\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tab.co.nz\/sports\/basketball\/olympics\/olympics-women-s\/japan-women-vs-belgium-women\/ccaff0f6-6ec9-496e-a0f8-f1591a879d36\" target=\"_blank\"\n            data-tr-event=\"blog\" data-tr-method=\"bet now button\" data-tr-action=\"open sport_event\" data-tr-label=\"ccaff0f6-6ec9-496e-a0f8-f1591a879d36\" data-tr-event-id=\"ccaff0f6-6ec9-496e-a0f8-f1591a879d36\"             >Bet Now: Japan v Belgium<\/a>\n        <\/div>\n          <\/div> <!-- end tip-content -->\n  <\/div> <!-- end tip-type-racing-sports -->\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-entain-racing-sports-tip\">\n  <section class=\"entain-block tips-block\" id=\"h6SWSvaYDniLX\">\n  <div class=\"tip-type-racing-sport hoverable open\">\n    <div class=\"tip-header\">\n      <div class=\"tip-header-icon\">\n        <div class=\"tip-category\">\n                      <div class=\"icon icon__svg\"><svg width=\"32\" height=\"32\" fill=\"currentColor\" version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\"><!----><use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/www.tab.co.nz\/punters\/wp-content\/themes\/punters\/assets\/brand-icons\/tabnz\/svg-sports-icon.svg?v=20260707b#cycling\"><\/use><\/svg><\/div>\n                  <\/div>\n      <\/div>\n      <div class=\"tip-header-meta\">\n        <div class=\"tip-header-meta__inner\">\n          <div class=\"title\">Women\u2019s Cycling: Road Race<\/div>\n                      <div class=\"bet-on\">To Win A Medal \u2014 Lorena Wiebes ($1.98)<\/div>\n                  <\/div>\n              <\/div> <!-- end tip-header-meta -->\n    <\/div> <!-- end tip-header -->\n    <div class='tip-content'>\n            <p><em>Monday, 12:00am<\/em><br \/>\nThe road cycling events in Paris draw to a close early on Monday morning with the women\u2019s road race. Lotte Kopecky finds herself as the favourite, taking part in her second event in Paris after a sixth-place finish in the individual time trial. She can count herself unlucky to not have placed higher after being caught in a crash in the time trial, but should she be fully recovered by Monday morning, she has every chance to claim gold.<\/p>\n<p>Owning the title of the current world champion, the Belgian has found some great form heading into this event, including a second-place finish at the Giro d&#8217;Italia Women, but there will be no shortage of cyclists trying to claim that position on top of the podium.<\/p>\n<p>Kopecky\u2019s SD Worx-Protime teammate in the WorldTour, Lorena Wiebes, may well be her closest contender. Usually at the top of the finish in WorldTour races, Kopecky and Wiebes will be very familiar with each other\u2019s strengths and weaknesses, but perhaps Wiebes\u2019 biggest advantage is the strong Netherlands team she has to support her. Marianne Vos and Demi Vollering are gold medal contenders in their own right and with their support, as well as the backing of their coach Loes Gunnewijk, Wiebes will likely be the one from the Dutch team to push for the win.<\/p>\n<p>Similarly, the Italians have put together a solid team for this race. Spearheaded by Elisa Longo Borghini, also in team Italy are former world champion Elisa Balsamo, Silvia Persico, and Elena Cecchini, meaning they can\u2019t be eliminated from contention. With such an impressive year of results under her belt, Longo Borghini is the best chance from this lot to win and there\u2019s no writing them off.<\/p>\n<p>However, with such an impressive Dutch team put together for this event, Lorena Wiebes appears as the best value for money in this race. At near-even money to win a medal, she is the best bet and is worth a stab to win gold too.<\/p>\n<p><em>Best:<\/em> To Win A Medal \u2014 Lorena Wiebes ($1.98)<br \/>\n<em>Value:<\/em> To Win Gold \u2014 Lorena Wiebes ($5.00)<\/p>\n                    <div class=\"tip-button\">\n          <a class=\"track-me btn-standard bet-now-btn\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tab.co.nz\/sports\/olympics\/cycling\/cycling-women-s-road-cycling-road-race\/53683ab8-ebc8-486e-ae0a-dfbf9518cb47\" target=\"_blank\"\n            data-tr-event=\"blog\" data-tr-method=\"bet now button\" data-tr-action=\"open sport_event\" data-tr-label=\"53683ab8-ebc8-486e-ae0a-dfbf9518cb47\" data-tr-event-id=\"53683ab8-ebc8-486e-ae0a-dfbf9518cb47\"             >Bet Now: Women&#8217;s Road Race<\/a>\n        <\/div>\n          <\/div> <!-- end tip-content -->\n  <\/div> <!-- end tip-type-racing-sports -->\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-entain-racing-sports-tip\">\n  <section class=\"entain-block tips-block\" id=\"ALHLGh9nFR1Uj\">\n  <div class=\"tip-type-racing-sport hoverable open\">\n    <div class=\"tip-header\">\n      <div class=\"tip-header-icon\">\n        <div class=\"tip-category\">\n                      <div class=\"icon icon__svg\"><svg width=\"32\" height=\"32\" fill=\"currentColor\" version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\"><!----><use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/www.tab.co.nz\/punters\/wp-content\/themes\/punters\/assets\/brand-icons\/tabnz\/svg-sports-icon.svg?v=20260707b#hockey\"><\/use><\/svg><\/div>\n                  <\/div>\n      <\/div>\n      <div class=\"tip-header-meta\">\n        <div class=\"tip-header-meta__inner\">\n          <div class=\"title\">Men\u2019s Hockey: Netherlands $2.25 v Australia $2.45 (Draw $3.90)<\/div>\n                      <div class=\"bet-on\">Netherlands ($2.25)<\/div>\n                  <\/div>\n              <\/div> <!-- end tip-header-meta -->\n    <\/div> <!-- end tip-header -->\n    <div class='tip-content'>\n            <p><em>Monday, 3:30am<\/em><br \/>\nWe have reached the quarterfinals stage of the men\u2019s hockey in Paris, with the eight best performers from group play qualifying for the knockout phase. A massive showdown takes place on Monday morning, with the world #3 Netherlands taking on the world #6 Australia. The Netherlands finished 3-1-1 in their pool, which was good for second place. Starting off strong with two wins, first against South Africa and then against France, the Dutch team\u2019s form died off a little as pool play continued. With a 2-2 draw against Great Britain, a 0-1 defeat against Germany and a 5-3 victory over Spain rounding out their results in Pool A.<\/p>\n<p>Australia finished third in Pool B, progressing with a 3-2 record. Similar to the Netherlands, the Aussies started their tournament strongly, recording consecutive wins to kick things off. Opening their account in Paris with a 1-0 victory over Argentina, the Kookaburras then edged past Ireland 2-1. A 2-6 defeat to world #1 Belgium humbled them in the following game, before they rounded out their time in pool play with a win over New Zealand and a defeat against India. The tables look balanced heading into this clash but the Dutch are the team to back here. They have won four of their last six matches against Australia and their 5-3 win over Spain on Friday showed that they are in solid form.<\/p>\n                    <div class=\"tip-button\">\n          <a class=\"track-me btn-standard bet-now-btn\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tab.co.nz\/sports\/hockey\/men-s-olympics\/netherlands-vs-australia\/e7043564-7ac7-483a-a6f2-c98a96e91995\" target=\"_blank\"\n            data-tr-event=\"blog\" data-tr-method=\"bet now button\" data-tr-action=\"open sport_event\" data-tr-label=\"e7043564-7ac7-483a-a6f2-c98a96e91995\" data-tr-event-id=\"e7043564-7ac7-483a-a6f2-c98a96e91995\"             >Bet Now: Netherlands v Australia<\/a>\n        <\/div>\n          <\/div> <!-- end tip-content -->\n  <\/div> <!-- end tip-type-racing-sports -->\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-entain-racing-sports-tip\">\n  <section class=\"entain-block tips-block\" id=\"n32Za90Up4c_U\">\n  <div class=\"tip-type-racing-sport hoverable open\">\n    <div class=\"tip-header\">\n      <div class=\"tip-header-icon\">\n        <div class=\"tip-category\">\n                      <div class=\"icon icon__svg\"><svg width=\"32\" height=\"32\" fill=\"currentColor\" version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\"><!----><use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/www.tab.co.nz\/punters\/wp-content\/themes\/punters\/assets\/brand-icons\/tabnz\/svg-sports-icon.svg?v=20260707b#athletics\"><\/use><\/svg><\/div>\n                  <\/div>\n      <\/div>\n      <div class=\"tip-header-meta\">\n        <div class=\"tip-header-meta__inner\">\n          <div class=\"title\">Women\u2019s Athletics: High Jump<\/div>\n                      <div class=\"bet-on\">To Win Gold \u2014 Yaroslava Mahuchikh ($1.20)<\/div>\n                  <\/div>\n              <\/div> <!-- end tip-header-meta -->\n    <\/div> <!-- end tip-header -->\n    <div class='tip-content'>\n            <p><em>Monday, 5:50am<br \/>\n<\/em>After looking at the women\u2019s high jump market, the very short price of Yaroslava Mahuchikh may jump off the page at you. But there is a reason that the Ukrainian is $1.20 to win gold. Hot off a world record jump of 2.10m at the Wanda Diamond League meeting in June, the 2020 bronze medallist has steadily worked her way to the peak of the women\u2019s high jump world and a massive upset will need to take place to see her denied of gold on Monday morning.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps her closest contender, Angelina Topic, who was runner up behind Mahuchikh at the European championships, has cruelly been ruled out of the decider after fracturing her ankle in Friday night\u2019s qualifying round, meaning Australian Nicola Olyslagers will have the best chance of being the person to rain on Mahuchikh\u2019s potential parade. The 27-year-old owns the season\u2019s equal-second-best jump of 2.03m, recorded in Canberra earlier this year, but she will need to elevate herself to a new level to surpass Mahuchikh.<\/p>\n<p>Looking for value in the market, Cyprus\u2019 Elena Kulichenko is a dark horse for a medal. Having recorded the equal-seventh-best jump of the season \u2014 and the equal-third-best of anyone in this field \u2014 if Kulichenko brings her A-game, a medal is a real possibility. Recording a 1.97m jump just two months ago in Oregon, a slight improvement on that could well see the Cypriot enter the medal equation.<\/p>\n<p><em>Best:<\/em> To Win Gold \u2014 Yaroslava Mahuchikh ($1.20)<br \/>\n<em>Value:<\/em> To Win A Medal \u2014 Elena Kulichenko ($10)<\/p>\n                    <div class=\"tip-button\">\n          <a class=\"track-me btn-standard bet-now-btn\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tab.co.nz\/sports\/olympics\/athletics\/athletics-women-s-high-jump\/d9feaa1f-0473-45fc-923c-7031ddb235d1\" target=\"_blank\"\n            data-tr-event=\"blog\" data-tr-method=\"bet now button\" data-tr-action=\"open sport_event\" data-tr-label=\"d9feaa1f-0473-45fc-923c-7031ddb235d1\" data-tr-event-id=\"d9feaa1f-0473-45fc-923c-7031ddb235d1\"             >Bet Now: Women&#8217;s High Jump<\/a>\n        <\/div>\n          <\/div> <!-- end tip-content -->\n  <\/div> <!-- end tip-type-racing-sports -->\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-entain-racing-sports-tip\">\n  <section class=\"entain-block tips-block\" id=\"B0EcwEhhU10_J\">\n  <div class=\"tip-type-racing-sport hoverable open\">\n    <div class=\"tip-header\">\n      <div class=\"tip-header-icon\">\n        <div class=\"tip-category\">\n                      <div class=\"icon icon__svg\"><svg width=\"32\" height=\"32\" fill=\"currentColor\" version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\"><!----><use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/www.tab.co.nz\/punters\/wp-content\/themes\/punters\/assets\/brand-icons\/tabnz\/svg-sports-icon.svg?v=20260707b#weightlifting\"><\/use><\/svg><\/div>\n                  <\/div>\n      <\/div>\n      <div class=\"tip-header-meta\">\n        <div class=\"tip-header-meta__inner\">\n          <div class=\"title\">Kiwis In Action<\/div>\n                  <\/div>\n              <\/div> <!-- end tip-header-meta -->\n    <\/div> <!-- end tip-header -->\n    <div class='tip-content'>\n            <p><strong>Men\u2019s Golf<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Daniel Hillier &amp; Ryan Fox<br \/>\n<em>Stroke Play Round 4<\/em><br \/>\n<em>Sunday, 7:00pm<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Women\u2019s Shooting<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Chloe Tipple<br \/>\n<em>Skeet Qualification \u2014 Day 2<\/em><br \/>\n<em>Sunday, 7:30pm<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Chloe Tipple<br \/>\nSkeet Final*<\/em><br \/>\n<em>Monday, 1:30am<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Women\u2019s Athletics<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Lauren Bruce<br \/>\n<em>Hammer Throw Qualification<\/em><br \/>\n<em>Sunday, 8:20pm<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Mixed Sailing<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Erica Dawson &amp; Micah Wilkinson<br \/>\n<em>Nacra Races 4-6<\/em><br \/>\n<em>Sunday, 10:05pm<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Men\u2019s Sailing<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Thomas Saunders<br \/>\n<em>One-person Dinghy Races 7-8<\/em><br \/>\n<em>Sunday, 10:05pm<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Lukas Walton-Keim<br \/>\n<em>Kite Surf Races 1-4<\/em><br \/>\n<em>Sunday, 10:13pm<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Women\u2019s Sailing<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Justina Kitchen<br \/>\n<em>Kite Surf Races 1-4<\/em><br \/>\n<em>Sunday, 10:33pm<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Greta Pilkington<br \/>\n<em>One-person Dinghy Races 7-8<\/em><br \/>\n<em>Monday, 12:35am<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Women\u2019s Cycling<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Kim Cadzow &amp; Niamh Fisher-Black<br \/>\n<em>Road Race<\/em><br \/>\n<em>Monday, 12:00am<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Men\u2019s Canoe Slalom<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Finn Butcher<br \/>\nKX Heat<br \/>\nMonday, 1:30am<\/p>\n<p><strong>Women\u2019s Canoe Slalom<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Luuka Jones<br \/>\nKX Heat<br \/>\nMonday, 2:45am<\/p>\n                    <div class=\"tip-button\">\n          <a class=\"track-me btn-standard bet-now-btn\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tab.co.nz\/sports\" target=\"_blank\"\n            data-tr-event=\"blog\" data-tr-method=\"bet now button\"             >Bet Now: Paris<\/a>\n        <\/div>\n          <\/div> <!-- end tip-content -->\n  <\/div> <!-- end tip-type-racing-sports -->\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":25,"featured_media":3083,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[40],"tags":[],"hub_post_cat":[],"class_list":["post-3351","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-other-sport"],"acf":{"md_tip_date":"","md_tip_date_end":null,"md_market_url":"","tip_date":"04\/08\/2024","event_country":"New Zealand"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.6 -
