Here's a look at some other big stories at the Olympics on Wednesday, Aug. 4.
Women's Basketball
The next challenge for the U.S. is its rival Australia in the quarterfinals of the women's basketball tournament. The Opals beat the Americans in an exhibition last month in Las Vegas. And since play began at the Tokyo Games, the U.S. has continued to be tested unlike it has any other time during its run of six consecutive Olympic gold medals.
Men's 200m final
Don't blink, because the men's 200-meter final will be over in a few seconds on Wednesday, with American Noah Lyles a favorite for gold. The U.S. is looking for a sweep of the medal podium with Americans Kenny Bednarek and Erriyon Knighton listed as the second and third fastest in the world this year among those entered in Tokyo.
The finals for the men's 110-meter hurdles will also take place on Wednesday with reigning world champion Grant Holloway racing to gold. In the U.S. trials, he missed the world record by .01 seconds.
Other medal events in track and field include the women's 3000-meter steeplechase, the men's triple jump and men's hammer throw.
And after breaking a 31-year-old shot put world record at U.S. trials, Ryan Crouser looks for another gold.

Women's volleyball
The U.S. women’s volleyball team will likely be without two starters when the Americans face the Dominican Republic in the quarterfinals. Setter Jordyn Poulter and opposite Jordan Thompson were limited at practice after rolling their right ankles during pool play and aren’t expected to be available. The Americans are still holding out hope that both could return later in the tournament if the U.S. advances.

Men's 10k Open Water Swim
Marathon swimming at the Tokyo Olympics is as much a test of mental endurance as it is physical conditioning during two hours of racing over a 10-kilometer course. The outcome is often decided by weather and water conditions as well as strategy and a furious sprint to the finish.
