Barring a sudden change in weather after the competition was already delayed, surfing medalists will be crowned Monday at the 2024 Paris Olympics.
The action — which is taking place on the French Polynesian island of Tahiti in the Pacific Ocean — will open Monday with the semifinals. The winners and losers of those matches will determine who will compete in the gold-and bronze-medal events later in the day.
The semifinals and finals were originally set for late last week, but were postponed due to a lack of wave conditions.
