Olympic Triathlon Events Confirmed After Water Quality Tests

The Olympic triathlon races in Paris are set to proceed this morning following successful water quality tests of the River Seine. Organisers had previously expressed concerns, indicating only a 60% likelihood of the events taking place after the men's triathlon was postponed on Tuesday due to pollution issues. This development has allowed the competition to move forward as planned.

Wiffen's victory came against strong competition from the United States and Italy, who took silver and bronze, respectively.
