Katarina Johnson-Thompson leads the women's heptathlon after the first day, showcasing season-bests in the high jump and 100m hurdles, and a personal best in the shot put. She is narrowly ahead of Belgium's Nafissatou Thiam and American Anna Hall, with three more events to come. Johnson-Thompson aims to banish the bitter memories of her injury-shortened Tokyo 2020 campaign. Meanwhile, 27 gold medal events are taking place on Day 13, including key competitions in men's basketball, men's football, and men's hockey. Noteworthy performances are expected in men's speed climbing, men's 200m final, and women's 400m hurdles. Team GB's men's cycling pursuit team earned a silver medal after a challenging final against Australia.
