Join Clare Balding for a colossal night of swimming as a plethora of star names take to the pool, headlined by the highly anticipated 100m freestyle finals.

The evening kicks off with the women’s 100m freestyle, and Australia’s double world champion Mollie O’Callaghan appears the one to beat. Brit Anna Hopkin finished seventh in this event three years ago.

With the USA’s defending champion Caeleb Dressel failing to qualify for the men’s 100m freestyle event, the door could be open for Tokyo silver medallist Kyle Chalmers, while Great Britain’s Matt Richards and home favourite Maxime Grousset could also push for the podium.

Elsewhere, American legend Katie Ledecky is favourite to further increase her medal haul in the women’s 1,500m final, and France’s five-time world champion Leon Marchand is also in action.
