Athletics is always popular among viewers of the Olympics, and the long jump will be no different at the 2024 Games in France this summer.
Miltiádis Tentóglou is expected to take home the gold medal once again, as the Greek star aims to become the second male, after USA icon Carl Lewis, to retain the Olympic long jump title.

Tentóglou is the current Olympics and World champion, but he'll need to win gold at the next three Games to match Lewis's record from 1984 until 1996.
The women's long jump will also be an interesting contest, with Germany's Malaika Mihambo the favourite to retain her gold medal after success at Tokyo 2020.
She has returned from injury and she won the European title earlier this year.

Jacob Fincham-Dukes is Team GB's main hope in the long jump - however, he's a big outsider compared to the likes of Greece's Tentóglou.
Fincham-Dukes, who is the national champion, was fourth at the European Championships earlier this year, and he'll be hoping to cause an upset in France during his first Olympics appearance.
