2021 Olympic Games with designation Tokyo 2020 are in progress from July 23 to August 8, 2021. The Summer Olympics are held without spectators and there are 115 Czech athletes in action. At the 2016 Olympics in Rio, the Czechs won ten medals (one gold, two silver and seven bronzes).

The medal was attacked by biker Ondřej Cink, who fought for bronze in a cross country race, but then met a rear wheel defect and the medal dream faded. The winner was the British Thomas Pidcock before the Swiss Mathias Flückiger and the Spaniard David Valer.
Yachting also has a Czech representative at the Olympics. Windsurfer Karel Lavický was in 23rd place after the first three races of the Olympic regatta and it was already certain that he would improve his position from the previous two games. After the second day, he dropped to 24th place.
The reigning European champion in the kular two-wheeler Barbora Seemanová advanced from the heat to Tuesday’s semifinals. With a time of 1: 56.38, she finished in 7th place. Kristýna Horská completed the position race, advancing to the sixteen-member Tuesday semifinal.
The women’s triathlon race will start half an hour before midnight CENTRAL and will feature two Czech representatives – Vendula Frintová and Petra Kuříková. The men – without Czech participation – fought for gold today and are already at the finish line. Gold was won by Nor Kristian Blummenfelt. The silver was won by the Briton Alex Yee, the third by New Zealander Hayden Wilde.
The first Olympic winner in skateboarding was 13-year-old Japanese Momiji Nishiy, who followed on from Sunday’s triumph of Jute Horigome.
The organizers today announced 16 new cases of coronavirus infection in accredited individuals, including three athletes. The number of cases related to games has climbed to 148 since July 1.
The organizers do not disclose the names or nationalities of the infected persons. One of the most affected expeditions at the Olympics is the Czechs: cyclist Michal Schlegel, table tennis player Pavel Širuček and beach volleyball player Markéta Nausch Sluková, who was to play with Barbora Hermann, lost their Olympic starts due to the covid-19 infection.
Another positively tested beach volleyball player, Ondřej Perušič, who, in any case, together with David Schweiner, lost today’s opening match against the Latvian couple Martins Plavinš, Edgars Točs, still feeds the theoretical hope for at least a late participation in the competition.
The Olympic Games are held without spectators at a time when the contagion is on the rise in Japan. In Tokyo, 1,763 new coronavirus cases were reported on Sunday.
