However, some sporting events like soccer and rugby had already had begun on Wednesday and Thursday, due to the length of the schedule.

Zimbabwe is being represented by a seven-member contingent across three disciplines — athletics, rowing, swimming.

If you want to cheer on your own during the Paris Olympics, here is the full schedule:

27 July

- 9:00 AM: Men's Single Sculls - Steve Cox

Update: Stephen Cox missed the qualifying time and came 4th in his heat. He still has a repechage tomorrow at 9:30 AM. A repechage is a term from rowing and wrestling that allows athletes who have been knocked out in the early rounds a second chance at qualifying for matches later on.

It has also been introduced to some running events. This means that each of the included events will have four rounds: a first round, a repechage round, semi-finals, and the final, whereas previously they had contained only three.
