All this is sourced through the NBC Olympics broadcast schedule. Competition starts again at 6 am tomorrow.
Competitions designated by (Medal) will award winners that day. ‘all’ means not specified. Sometimes NBC especially does mashups and doesn’t include event or competitor information. Elimination means no round robin, one and done.
These schedules are a place for you to make sure you don’t miss a sport you like and share your observations. Have fun today!
