Irish swimmer Daniel Wiffen is on the brink of making history at the Paris Olympics, having already secured a gold medal in the 800-meter freestyle and now aiming for a second gold in the 1500-meter final. Wiffen set the fastest qualifying time of 14:40.34 in the heats and is targeting the world record of 14:31.02, originally set by China's Sun Yang in 2012. He expressed a desire to break the record while acknowledging the fatigue from his previous win, but remains optimistic about his performance. Other Irish athletes featured on Saturday included Shane Lowry and Rory McIlroy in golf, with McIlroy positioned well at 10 under overall. Meanwhile, Kellie Harrington prepares for her boxing match against Brazil's Beatriz Iasmin Soare Ferreira, with the chance to upgrade her bronze medal. Overall, it was a mixed day for Irish competitors, with some missing out on finals while others, like Wiffen, aim for Olympic glory.
