News summary

Jamaica's Olympic sprint team is facing significant setbacks at the Paris Olympics. Shericka Jackson and Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce withdrew from the women’s 100m and 200m due to injuries, ending Jamaica's medal streak in these events since 1976. Additionally, Kishane Thompson fell short in the men’s 100m, and Sean Bailey had to exit the 400m repechage round due to injury. Meanwhile, Slovakian swimmer Tamara Potocka collapsed after her 200m individual medley race but has since recovered, attributing her collapse to exhaustion rather than an asthma attack. In a separate incident, Brazilian swimmer Ana Carolina Vieira was sent home for indiscipline after leaving the Olympic Village without permission and disputing relay team decisions.
