There are just five more days of the Paris Olympics but plenty of medals still up for grabs. The gymnastics competition is done, and the venue has been transformed overnight into a basketball arena as teams move from Lille to Paris for the knockout portion of the tournament. Swimming is also finished, but you can replace that with beach volleyball and soccer, which have both moved to the elimination rounds. And there’s still plenty of action to go in track and field.

There are 14 gold medals up for grabs today, including in the men’s 400-meter final, women’s pole vault, skateboarding, cycling, wrestling, boxing, sport climbing, sailing and the marathon race walk. The U.S. women’s team faces Nigeria in the basketball quarterfinal at 3:30pm ET and women’s golf is also underway. Enjoy these Games while you can!
