Beach volleyball in Paris has one of the most beautiful setups in recent Olympic history.
Players and fans are able to soak in the atmosphere as Olympic competition takes place just outside of the Eiffel Tower. As the 2024 Paris Olympics enters its second week, teams and players will have to say good-bye to the gorgeous view.
Group play is finished and the knockout stage is underway in Paris. The men’s and women’s tournaments heat up beginning with the Round of 16 on Sunday, Aug. 4. The brackets conclude on Friday, Aug. 9 and Saturday, Aug. 10.
Each game has a heightened significance as one poor play could cost a nation at medalling.
