Kyle Chalmers snared silver to reach the podium in a 100m freestyle final for a third straight Olympics – and says he’s still hungry for more after stunning the sporting world by revealing he won’t be retiring any time soon.

Jessica Fox says she was inspired by the efforts of Ariarne Titmus and Kaylee McKeown in defending their Olympic gold medals before achieving the same feat herself with victory in the kayak canoe slalom.

It’s been a big day in the water for Australia on day four of the Paris Olympics, with a gold and bronze won in swimming.

A rapid start, an explosive turn and a trademark powerhouse finish with the race on the line – that’s how Kaylee McKeown defended her Olympic 100m Backstroke crown to continue Australia’s golden run in the pool at the Paris La Défense Arena.

A rare outburst of emotion showed how badly Mollie O’callaghan wanted this gold medal. The popular Aussie was ecstatic after smashing the match race against training partner Ariarne Titmus.
