Figure skating is a whole lot more cutthroat than the rhinestones suggest. That shouldn’t be surprising for a sport that requires participants to strap knives to their feet and spin through the air at high speeds. While the general public usually only tunes in during the Winter Olympics, the grind typically starts before most skaters hit double digits. These athletes only have a handful of performances a year to dictate their standings, showcase new programs, and prove they belong on the ice.

This high-stakes environment creates a unique subculture, one where the costumes are delicate, but the athletes are made of steel. It is a world built on precise geometry and raw emotion, making it the perfect breeding ground for cinematic drama.

With that kind of pressure, rivalries are inevitable, but so are romances, lifelong friendships and complex coaching bonds. Given those rich layers, it’s a wonder there aren’t more figure skating stories on screen. But the ones we do have? They’re pure glitter and gold.

'The Cutting Edge'

Hollywood loves to play Cupid with grumpy hockey players and figure skaters. In the 1992 classic "The Cutting Edge," Olympic ice dancer Kate Moseley (Moira Kelly) pairs up with reluctant former hockey pro Doug Dorsey (D.B. Sweeney). It’s a classic "enemies-to-lovers" scenario that whips Doug into Olympic shape far too quickly, but as someone who learned to skate on hockey skates, I’m obsessed with his trainwreck attempt to use a toe pick for the first time. Same, dude.

The film was so beloved that it spawned three sequels, including one that gender-bends the premise with a female hockey player. However, I’m still waiting for a queer "enemies-to-lovers" team-up on the ice. Now that titles like "Heated Rivalry" have broken the ice in fiction, maybe a movie version is finally on the horizon.

Watch on MGM+

'I, Tonya'

When someone hears the name Tonya Harding, the response is usually: "Oh, didn’t she take out Nancy Kerrigan?" Actually, no. The biopic "I, Tonya" takes a mockumentary approach with Margot Robbie in the hot seat to show how Harding’s legacy was reduced to a media witch hunt. While Harding contends with maternal and spousal abuse, we watch this viscerally talented athlete get ridiculed because she doesn’t act like the "fairy princess" the association demanded.

Over 20 years later, this film helps us see a story of abuse and classism. Whether Harding was involved in the 1994 assault remains a mystery, but the evidence never proved it. Knowing your husband committed a crime after the fact shouldn't warrant a lifetime ban, especially when the perpetrators served minimal jail time. I can’t get through the end without crying; I wonder what the industry would look like today if it hadn’t been robbed of her boundary-pushing talent.

Rent/buy on Prime Video or Apple TV

'Ice Castles' (1978)

The "kiss and cry" of death for skating movies is casting actors who can't skate. Ice Castles avoided this pitfall by casting Ice Capades performer Lynn-Holly Johnson as the lead, Lexi. Because she can actually move, the film is filled with genuine, beautiful sequences rather than relying on tight close-ups and quick cuts to the crowd to hide a lack of footwork.

The story follows Lexi’s rise from a small-town girl to a national favorite until a freak accident leaves her blind. Her hockey-player boyfriend (Robby Benson) encourages her to keep competing despite the tragedy. It’s wholesome, technically sound, and far superior to the 2010 remake. The OG gets the gold every time.

Rent/buy on Prime Video or Apple TV

'Yuri!!! on Ice'

"Yuri!!! on Ice" is the best skating show you’ve probably never heard of. While projects like "Spinning Out" or "Finding Her Edge" struggled with problematic depictions or cringe love triangles, this anime nails the technical components. In fact, it’s so accurate that Japanese Olympians even used the theme song for their 2018 Olympic program. Animation allows for perfect triple Lutzes without needing a dozen stunt doubles.

The story follows Yuri Katsuki, who is ready to retire until his idol, Victor Nikiforov, becomes his coach. What develops is a rich, groundbreaking romantic relationship. This was vital representation, debuting years before Adam Rippon became the first "out" gay figure skater to compete in the Olympics.

Watch on Hulu

'Glitter & Gold: Ice Dancing'

It’s easy to watch a pair nail a twist lift and forget the sheer athleticism involved. For ice dancers, partnership is everything — you have to trust someone enough to throw you into the air while you're both wearing knives. There’s a surprising lack of skating documentaries, but Netflix’s "Glitter & Gold" wins a medal for capturing the unique difficulties, romances, and brutal physical toll of the sport.

Focusing on elite pairs like Madison Chock & Evan Bates, the series illustrates exactly what these athletes sacrifice to reach the 2026 Olympics. You’ll also see commentary from legends like Adam Rippon and Tara Lipinski. If you want to see the real moving pieces that land teams on the podium, this is it.

• How to watch Figure Skating at Winter Olympics 2026 online for free from anywhere
• I just spent 5 hours watching Winter Olympics Gold Zone on Peacock, and it's so close to being perfect
• 'Heated Rivalry' is my new favorite show, but it's missing one thing

The 2026 Winter Olympics are in full swing, and the best way to watch every minute of the action is on Peacock. Specifically, the Gold Zone on Peacock, which is a whip-around coverage show exclusive to the streaming service, akin to NFL RedZone. In fact, Peacock even steals Scott Hanson from RedZone to host large chunks of the Gold Zone

So with the Super Bowl now in the rearview mirror, I spent the entire day on Monday watching hours of Gold Zone to see what the fuss is all about. Gold Zone actually debuted at the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris, but I didn't get a chance to experience it. The Olympics honestly aren't my favorite sporting event, so I was curious if the Gold Zone's near-constant feed of Winter Olympics action would get me hooked.

Turns out, it absolutely did. Gold Zone is awesome, and it's probably the only way I'm watching the Olympics until we get down to handing out medals in the final major events. That said, it's not perfect. There's a major flaw, and a couple of minor ones, that prevented it from being truly the ultimate Olympics streaming experience. Here's what I loved (and hated) after watching the Winter Olympics Gold Zone on Peacock for five hours straight.

What I loved about Gold Zone

OK, so let's cover the good stuff first. Gold Zone allows you to watch up to four events at once on a single screen. But unlike a standard Multiview, this experience is curated; it's a studio show with hosts, cutting back and forth between events just at the right moment so you don't miss any of the drama or elation.

It's an easy viewing experience, too. When it's in a multiview, a gold border highlights the event that the studio hosts are commentating on. When they choose to hone in on an event, that broadcast takes over, and you get the audio feed from that specific broadcast, including the commentary from that event's dedicated announcers.

In a unique twist, though, sometimes they give you audio from multiple events. That could be disastrous, but when I was watching Gold Zone, it weirdly worked. It was a cool experience to get the elated cheers of curling over the audio of ice dancers skating to Ricky Martin over the loudspeakers at their rink.

The best Gold Zone gets, though, is when Scott Hanson takes over. All due respect to Peacock's own studio hosts, who are genuinely good, Hanson is the best of the best at whip-around coverage. You literally feel yourself perking up once he takes over, and it makes the action that much more exciting.

How Peacock could improve Gold Zone

Let's start with some nitpicks. While I like that Peacock offers a call-to-action button to take you from Gold Zone to specific broadcasts, it only offers that at specific times. I'd love to be able to select the broadcasts when they're in the four-box, like I would select broadcasts from a Multiview. My guess is the technology simply isn't there yet, but it's something I would like to see in the future.

Also, the events available to Gold Zone really make a difference. When high-intensity curling semifinals are paired against speed skating medal rounds, it's electric. When so little is going on that the Gold Zone can't cut away from a women's hockey game, suddenly you'll find yourself losing interest fast. Not that women's hockey is inherently boring, but with NFL RedZone, you're only getting fed the most important plays. Plays that offer a chance at scoring points. Gold Zone can't just stick to that, though. Sometimes it needs to show you five minutes of Germany vs. France where nothing really happens.

Now, onto my main gripe: Why are there commercials? Specifically, why are we cutting away to commercials? When NFL RedZone added commercials, it had the decency to still show you football at the same time. The fact that a whip-around show that I'm paying a $10.99 a month subscription fee to access is making me watch a Wegovy ad instead of more curling is patently absurd. Show me ads if you must, but at least give me them picture-in-picture.

Verdict: Gold Zone is so close to being perfect, but I'm still watching it regardless

Despite its flaws, Gold Zone is the only way I'm watching I'm the Olympics from here on out. Give me the constant action over a single broadcast any day. I realize that I'm perfectly content to watch a three-hour foreign film with no distractions, but when it comes to live sports, give me as many big moments as you can possibly fit onto my screen. Gold Zone manages to do that, and does it well. So it officially has my stamp of approval.

NBC is shaking up Super Bowl Sunday again in 2026. Instead of handing the biggest TV audience of the year to a sitcom or reality show, it’s rolling straight into Winter Olympics coverage from Milan and Cortina d’Ampezzo. It’s all part of NBCUniversal’s broader “Legendary February” push, which puts the "Super Bowl" and the Games on the same day.

Below is the simplest way to watch from anywhere with a VPN, along with what you need to know if you are travelling and your usual stream is geo-blocked.

The key thing to know is timing. Once the game is over and the Lombardi Trophy presentation wraps up, NBC’s Olympic coverage starts at around 10:45 p.m. ET, with the post-game show branded as “Primetime in Milan.”

If you’re streaming, Peacock will carry the same handoff, and NBC is also promoting a “4K All Day” experience that covers both its Winter Olympics coverage and Super Bowl programming.

Watch post Super Bowl Olympic coverage from anywhere

Travelling and blocked from your usual apps? A VPN, or virtual private network, lets your device appear to be back in your home country, so you can securely use your existing subscriptions while you’re abroad.

We’ve tested many services, and the best VPN currently available is NordVPN. It offers fast, reliable connections, works on most devices, and you can try it risk-free for 30 days thanks to its money-back guarantee.

Using a VPN is simple:

1. Install the VPN of your choice (NordVPN is our favourite).

2. Choose the location you want in the VPN app. For example, pick a U.S. server to use Peacock as normal while overseas.

3. Open your streaming service and start watching.

Watch the post Super Bowl Olympics coverage in the U.S.

In the U.S., NBC and Peacock are your main destinations. NBC will show the post-game Olympic coverage live, with “Primetime in Milan” expected to start at around 10:45 p.m. ET.

Peacock will stream the same coverage, and NBCUniversal is also touting a 4K HDR feed that spans both the day’s "Winter Olympics" action and "Super Bowl" programming.

If you want the full Sunday experience, NBC’s schedule has live Winter Olympics coverage running through the morning, Super Bowl build-up from early afternoon, then the Winter Olympics handoff late at night.

U.S. subscriber abroad? If you’re traveling and find your usual apps blocked, you can securely access your subscription with a VPN.

Watch the post Super Bowl Olympics coverage in the U.K.

The “post-game” handoff is really a U.S. broadcast quirk, because the Super Bowl"finishes overnight in the U.K. Instead of one long run, your Winter Olympics viewing is usually split between Sunday daytime coverage and Monday morning competition, depending on which events you want to watch live.

For U.K. coverage, check BBC channels and iPlayer for broad live and on-demand coverage, while Discovery+ and TNT Sports are your go-to options if you want every event, live and on demand.

If you’re travelling and want to use your usual BBC iPlayer or Discovery+ account, a VPN like NordVPN can help you securely access your apps as normal.

Watch the post Super Bowl Olympics coverage in Canada

Canada doesn’t receive the same single‑network handoff as the U.S., because Olympic and Super Bowl rights are held by different broadcasters. In practice, you’ll usually finish the game on one channel or app, then switch over to Olympic coverage elsewhere.

CBC is the primary Olympic broadcaster, with extra coverage on partner networks, and CBC Gem streams events live and on demand (account required).

You’ll also find coverage across the major Canadian sports networks and streaming services.

If you’re a U.S.-based Peacock subscriber visiting Canada, you can still use your account by connecting to a U.S. server on a VPN like NordVPN and streaming as you would at home.

Watch the post Super Bowl Olympics coverage in Australia

In Australia, Super Bowl Sunday in the U.S. falls on Monday, February 9, locally, and Winter Olympics coverage is separate from the NFL broadcast. In practice, you’ll switch apps rather than stay on a single channel all day.

For Winter Olympics coverage, check Nine’s broadcast channels plus 9Now for free-to-air and streaming. Stan Sport is the place to watch every discipline, live and on demand, with many events available in 4K Ultra HD.

Seven and its streaming partners carry the "Super Bowl" game locally.

Travelling from the U.S. and don’t want to miss the castle drama? Use a VPN, such as NordVPN, to sign in to your Peacock account and watch as you would at home.

Post Super Bowl Olympics coverage — schedule

Here’s the basic outline of NBC and Peacock’s day, including the late-night Olympic handoff.

Exact times may shift slightly depending on how long the game and trophy presentation run. NBC itself lists the "Winter Olympics" restart as “approximately” 10:45 p.m. ET.

The Paralympics 2024 live stream will see the world’s greatest para athletes battle it out over 11 days in Paris — and you can watch it from anywhere with a VPN and potentially for free!

The opening ceremony will be held outdoors for the first time in paralympic history. It's starts at 2 p.m. ET / 11 a.m. PT / 7 p.m. BST on Wednesday (that's 4 a.m. AEST on Thursday) and director Thomas Jolly will be praying for Parisien sunshine.

An estimated 4,400 athletes – including 224 from Team USA – will compete for 549 medals across 22 sports. The venue next to the Eiffel Tower, which hosted beach volleyball during the Olympics, will host blind soccer, while the para equestrian events will take place at Château de Versailles.

Most sports – para basketball, sitting volleyball, shooting, wheelchair tennis, para athletics, etc – will be familiar to viewers. However, the Paralympics boasts two sports that don't have an Olympic counterpart: goalball and boccia.

Look out for American para swimmer Jessica Long, who will be hoping to add to her tally of 29 paralympic medals. And, of course, you won't want to miss the wheelchair rugby – the sport that inspired the 2005 movie "Murderball".

A relatively new discipline to feature at the Games, this year's sport climbing live streams at Olympics 2024 will feature the best climbers from around the globe competing for medals in two competitions: boulder & lead and a speed event — and you can watch it from anywhere with a VPN and potentially for free!

Toby Roberts emerged as a surprise gold medalist on Friday as the British climber claimed victory in the men’s boulder and lead competition. The 19-year-old scored 155.2 points to beat favorite Sorato Anraku of Japan, who fell on the lead wall as he looked to relegate Roberts into silver medal position. Austria's Jakob Schubert took bronze, finishing three points clear of the USA’s Colin Duffy. 

Today will see the final of the women’s combined where Slovenia’s Janja Garnbret is head and shoulders ahead of the competition. The 25-year-old, who claimed gold in the combined three years ago in Tokyo, dominated the semi-finals and is expected to claim victory by a sizeable margin. Other medals contenders include France’s Oriane Bertone, American Brooke Raboutou and Oceana Mackenzie of Australia.

Sport climbing at Olympics 2024 will be shown on both Channel 9 and 9Gem — and you can watch for free on the 9Now streaming service, which is compatible with most streaming devices.  

Additional free-to-air coverage of the Paris Olympics can be found in Canada (CBC Gem) and the U.K. (BBC iPlayer). However, these networks won’t be showing every single event, so you may need to sign up for a premium service for full coverage in these countries. 

If you’re normally in one of these countries but won’t be during the Paris Olympics, you don’t have to miss out thanks to one of the best VPNs. These allow you to watch your go-to streaming wherever you are in the world. Our favorite is NordVPN.

How to watch sport climbing at Olympics 2024 from anywhere

If you're not in your home country during the Olympics 2024 and are unable to live stream from wherever you are, you can still tune in via a virtual private network, or VPN. A VPN makes it appear like you're surfing the web from your home allowing you to access the streaming services you already pay for. It's legal and easy to do.

We've tested many different VPN services and our favorite is NordVPN; it offers superb speeds, excellent customer service and a no-questions-asked 30-day money-back guarantee, so you can try it out first to see if it's right for you. But you've got other VPN options too, so check out our full list of the best VPN services.

Using a VPN is incredibly simple.

1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, NordVPN is our favorite.

2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance, if you're in the U.S. and want to view your usual U.K. service, you'd select U.K. from the list.

3. Sit back and enjoy the action. Head to BBC iPlayer and watch sport climbing at the Olympics live online.

How to watch sport climbing at Olympics 2024 in the U.S.

The U.S. is set to host the Olympics in 2028, with Los Angeles, California confirmed as the host city, but to enjoy this year’s Olympics held in Paris, France, viewers in America are going to be relying on NBCUniversal who will be broadcasting sport climbing on USA and E!. This may be included with your cable package.

However, your best option is NBC’s streaming service Peacock as it’s set to live stream every event at the Paris Olympics promising to offer a daily recap with highlights of all the biggest medal-winning moments. To tune in, you'll need either a Premium subscription ($7.99/month) or Premium Plus ($13.99/month, which also gets rid of some ads).

Cord-cutters can opt for Sling TV. The Sling Blue package costs $45 per month and gives you access to more than 30 channels including NBC, USA and MSNBC. Or you could go for Fubo. Its Pro Plan costs $79.99 per month, though you get 121 channels for that hefty investment, including all the NBC channels showing Olympics 2024 events.

If you're outside the U.S. but have one of these subscriptions, you can watch sport climbing at Olympics 2024 using a VPN such as NordVPN.

How to watch sport climbing at Olympics 2024 in the U.K.

Back in the good old days, the BBC was the exclusive U.K. home of the Olympics, but that all changed in 2021 when Discovery came on the scene. Fortunately, many events are still free to watch on the BBC and BBC iPlayer but remember it won’t have everything.

Brits who don’t want to miss a single second of the action will need to invest in Discovery Plus. A subscription will cost you £6.99 per month (reduced to £3.99 per month during the Olympics) for the Standard plan which includes the action from Paris 2024. Having to pay to watch the Olympics is a foreign concept to many in the U.K. but for your money you’ll get access to every single Olympics sport, including sport climbing.

All sounds great, right? But if you're not in the U.K., you can still follow sport climbing at Olympics 2024 by using one of the best VPN services, such as NordVPN.

How to watch sport climbing at Olympics 2024 in Canada

Olympics coverage in Canada is split across CBC, Sportsnet and TSN, with many events being live-streamed for free on the CBC Gem.

CBC Gem is a free platform, but you can pay $5.99 per month (7-day free trial) to remove some advertisements and gain access to the service’s on-demand library. However, if you don’t mind tolerating commercials, you can enjoy most of the Olympics 2024 for free.  

Meanwhile, to access Sportsnet, you’ll want a Sportsnet Plus subscription which costs $19.99 per month or $179.99 per year, or you can opt for Plus Premium for $34.99 per month or $249.99 per year. Lastly, you can also subscribe to TSN which costs $19.99 a month or $199.90 per year.

If you’re a Canadian stuck abroad and want to access your regular service, you can use a VPN such as NordVPN to make your device believe it's back home in Canada.

How to watch sport climbing at Olympics 2024 in Australia

Regardless of the final medal table, Aussies are the real winners of the Olympics 2024. That’s because, in the land of Oz, every single Olympic event is being broadcast for free across Channel 9 and 9Gem, with online live streams available via 9Now. 

Not in Australia right now? You can simply use a VPN like NordVPN to watch the sport climbing on 9Now as if you were back home. 

If you want to watch the Olympic Games 2024 in 4K in Australia, then you'll need Stan Sport. It offers ad-free coverage of every session of every Olympic sport with the Stan Sport ad-on for $15. You will also need the Stan Premium base plan which is $21 per month.

How to watch sport climbing at Olympics 2024 in New Zealand

Over in New Zealand, the Olympic Games are typically split between free service TVNZ, and premium provider Sky Sport. That’s set to be the case for the 2024 Olympics in Paris.

Free Olympic 2024 live streams will be available for New Zealanders on the TNVZ Plus streaming service. While a Sky Sport Now subscription will run you $29.99 per week, or $49.99 per month.

Sky Sport Now also has a limited time Olympic Games Paris 2024 Pass offer. A one-off fee of $34.99 buys you full access to Sky Sports and ESPN between July 25 and August 12 with 12 Olympic channels as well as all the other sport. Not bad.

New Zealand residents abroad during the sport climbing at the Olympics 2024 can still follow along on their regular streaming service by using one of the best VPN services, such as NordVPN.

Watching the Olympics is something that people all over the world do every four years. But with so many sports, so many events, so many countries and so many athletes, the viewing experience can be chaotic. Peacock is making that experience easier than ever for the 2024 Olympics in Paris by deploying a combination of advanced tech, straightforward features and compelling original content. 

NBCUniversal boasts that its comprehensive coverage of the Paris Olympics is the biggest media event ever with over 7,000 hours of coverage, including more than 5,000 streaming hours. All 329 medal events will stream on Peacock. Which is great, and all, but the "what," "when" and "how" are always the big questions brought up by watching any Olympics. 

Even when the time zone difference isn't so bad (Paris is six hours ahead of the U.S. East Coast), the sheer number of events is staggering. On top of that, events are broken down into qualifying rounds, time trials, or heats, followed by medal finals. Throw in world-famous athletes, interesting underdogs, and dramatic comebacks. Figuring out the "what," "when" and how" seems impossible. 

Peacock hopes to give you the answers. Here's a guide to what they're doing to make watching the Olympics less of a hurdle.

1. Comprehensive Olympics hub and individual sports hubs

As usual, NBC and its sibling cable networks USA, E! and CNBC will air various events through the Olympics from Friday, July 26 through Sunday, August 11. 

But Peacock is the one and only one-stop shop. The service is streaming every sport and event, including all 329 medal events; full-event replays; all NBC programming; curated video clips; virtual channels; original programming; and more.

All coverage will be accessible via an Olympics hub (listed in Peacock's main navigation bar) where users can find the biggest live events and replays, check an interactive schedule, browse by sport, search by athlete and look at medal standings. 

2. Multiview experiences with four times the action

Peacock is launching a multiview experience for the Olympics that's in line with what other services, like YouTube TV and Apple TV Plus, already offer. Their multiview feature will come in two forms. 

The first is what the service calls "Discovery Multiview," a curated four-view experience showing important events with real-time on-screen descriptions from NBCU’s Olympic experts explaining the stakes. 

The second is a traditional multiview that displays up to four matches on one screen in a particular sport such as track and field, soccer, and wrestling.

3. Live actions that give viewers control

Another feature Peacock is rolling out for the Olympics is live actions, a sort of "choose your own streaming adventure." During whip-around GoldZone coverage, viewers can choose to continue watching the live feed of a specific event rather than going with the broadcast when it moves on to another event. 

For instance, while you're watching gymnastics, you can select the "keep watching" button that pops up before the broadcast transitions to coverage of archery or basketball. 

Live actions will also allow viewers to add upcoming events to their "My Stuff" list for later. For example, if you're watching a swimming heat, you can add the medal match to your list — acting s a reminder. 

4. Comedic reactions from Kevin Hart and Kenan Thompson

During the 2021 Tokyo Olympics, Kevin Hart and rapper Snoop Dogg teamed up for a Peacock highlights show that went viral for their hilarious reactions and recaps of the day's events. Snoop has been promoted to an NBC correspondent for the Paris games, but Hart will be back on Peacock with a new partner: "Saturday Night Live" star Kenan Thompson.

"Olympic Highlights with Kevin Hart & Kenan Thompson" will debut on Friday, July 26 following the Opening Ceremony, which will make history by taking place on the River Seine. A four-mile-long flotilla of nearly 90 boats will carry athletes from more than 200 countries past hundreds of thousands of spectators seated on the banks of the Seine.

We can't wait to hear what kind of jokes Hart and Thompson will make about the Seine's cleanliness (or lack thereof), potential sharks in the water and whatever else comes to the comedians' minds. And since this is on Peacock and not NBC, that could truly be anything. Earmuffs for the kids!

5. AI-generated highlights voiced by Al Michaels

Of course, an Olympic games in 2024 wouldn't be complete without the involvement of artificial technology. Peacock is using generative AI and AI voice synthesis technology to create a personalized daily Olympic recap with the voice of the legendary announcer Al Michaels (with his collaboration and input). 

Every day, users can fire up a customized playlist that contains highlights of the events most relevant to them. Clips from the previous day's basketball game, swimming heat, table tennis match, fencing final, etc. will be narrated by a re-creation of Michaels' voice, which was trained using his past appearances on NBC.

Watching the Olympics is a global event every four years, but the viewing experience can get hectic with so many sports and star athletes to follow. Peacock is making that experience easier than ever by rolling out two new features for the 2024 Paris Olympics: Multiview and Live Actions.

NBCUniversal announced the upgrades at its annual One24 technology conference today, along with other new tech and data capabilities around its advertising offering.

Peacock already vastly improved its streaming coverage of the Olympics with the 2022 Winter Games in Beijing. This summer, it will get even better with two interactive features designed to help fans navigate more than 5,000 hours of live coverage, including all 329 medal events. 

At a press briefing attended by Tom's Guide, Peacock executive John Jelley noted they began brainstorming how to improve the Olympics streaming experience the day after the Beijing games ended. 

The biggest learning, I think, is we had a good discovery experience. It won awards for the last Winter Games and we heard that from users," said Jelley, the senior vice president for product and user experience. "But this is three times as much content, so we had to find new ways to make that even easier. That's why things like Discovery Multiview came up because we thought there's 40 events now happening live. That's a lot of content.

"What am I going to watch? And so we want to give users ways to discover the things that are most interesting to them."

Discovery Multiview delivers four times the action 

Multiview functionality is available on several streaming services, including YouTube TV and Apple TV Plus for MLS Season Pass. Peacock will launch two forms of it during the Olympics. The first is a traditional multiview that displays up to four matches on one screen in sports such as track and field, soccer, and wrestling. 

The second is Peacock's Discovery Multiview, which is a curated four-view experience showing important events with real-time on-screen descriptions from NBCU’s Olympic experts explaining the stakes. Viewers will be able to choose from up to four Multiview options.

"We may have one that's Team USA. We may have one that's trending events. We may have [one that's] soccer matches," Jelley said. "You'll have choice, lots of choice. We're helping you guide to the right events that are happening."

Live actions gives viewers power over their viewing

The second feature Peacock is rolling out for the Olympics is Live Actions, a sort of streaming "choose your own adventure." During live coverage, viewers can choose to continue watching the live feed of a specific event rather than going with the broadcast when it moves on to another event. 

A demo video showed a "keep watching" button popping up on gymnastics coverage. By selecting that, you can stay with gymnastics rather than whipping to coverage of archery or basketball. 

Live Actions will also allow viewers to add upcoming events to their "My Stuff" list for later. For example, if you're watching a swimming heat, you can add the medal match to your list — functioning like a reminder. 

As Jelley explained, "We're still giving you everything you want to watch. If that particular event didn't pique your interest, you can just keep going. But there may be one later on where you're like, 'Wow, I love this sport I didn't even know existed. And now I want to keep watching it.' 

With the new feature, viewers can "quickly action that — keep watching during the day and then being able to say, 'Later on in the evening, I want to start planning my next day's viewing.'"

More upgrades to Olympics coverage

Multiview and Live Actions aren't all that Peacock's rolling out to improve the Olympics viewing experience.

The service is expanding its Key Plays functionality, which currently exists for Premier League soccer matches and NFL games, to basketball and golf. 

An enhanced interactive schedule will let viewers plan their Olympics viewing day-by-day. They can join events live, watch replays on demand and add events to their "My Stuff" list to watch later. Plus, a new "Search by Star Athlete" feature is joining existing searches by sport, event and team.

It sounds like the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6 may be arriving a little earlier this year. We had expected both phones to launch at a Galaxy Unpacked event some time in August, as is the norm, but we might instead see that event moved by a couple of weeks.

SamMobile is the source of this rumor, claiming that Samsung could hold its Summer Unpacked event during the second week in July — possibly July 10. It’s claimed that this may be due to the 2024 Summer Olympics, of which Samsung is a key sponsor, running between July 26 and August 11. 

By moving the announcement up by a couple of weeks compared to last year’s Unpacked, it means Samsung could potentially use one of the world’s biggest sporting events to advertise its newest phones to billions of people. In the past Samsung has also given special edition versions of its latest Samsung phones to Olympic athletes, which is some consolation if you come home without a medal. 

Hosting the launch before the Olympics also means that Samsung won’t be competing with the event for headlines and attention. Much like how the Galaxy S24 gave CES 2024 a wide berge, despite rumors that suggested otherwise.

It wouldn’t be the first time Samsung has brought its Galaxy Unpacked events forward, either. The Samsung Galaxy S24 launch event happened in January this year, rather than February. The Galaxy Z Fold 5 was also revealed a few weeks earlier than normal, with Samsung ditching the usual August launch for one on July 26. 

So what does this mean for the Galaxy Z Fold 6’s release date? Last year saw the Z Fold 5 release on August 11, two weeks after being announced. If we get the same gap between the two, it means the Z Fold 6 may be arriving around July 24. That would make sense from an advertising perspective, since both phones will be available to buy during the Olympic period.

Exploiting your position as a games sponsor to advertise a phone is available to pre-order doesn’t quite have the same appeal as “buy it now”.

It would be extra fitting if this rumored early launch also saw Samsung announce when the Galaxy Ring is going on sale. Considering the device is going to be very health and fitness focused, it makes sense for Samsung to tie it into the Olympics in some shape or form. 

As for the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6 themselves, word is that we may see something of a design overhaul. Rumors claim that the Z Flip 6 may have a larger cover display, better cameras and a more durable screen design. Meanwhile the Z Fold 6 may have a wider cover display, a square aspect ratio on the internal display, and we may even see an Ultra edition arrive alongside it. And there's also the possibility of a Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra model as well.

There’s no telling how accurate SamMobile’s sources are, so there’s no guarantee that the next Unpacked will happen earlier this year. We will just have to wait hand be patient, and in the meantime you can keep on top of all the latest news and rumors in our Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 hubs.

The last two weeks of competition have speed skated by and it's almost time to watch the 2022 Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics Closing Ceremony live online. After 19 days of events across 15 different sports, the 2022 Winter Olympics will come to an end and pass the torch to the host of the next edition. 

If you want to watch the 2022 Winter Olympics Closing Ceremony live on Peacock, you should brew yourself a strong cup of coffee. The event will take place at 8 p.m. local time, which is 7 a.m. ET / 3 a.m. PT.

Fortunately, NBC will rebroadcast the closing ceremony at the more reasonable hour of 7 p.m. ET / 4 p.m. PT.

Like the Opening Ceremony, the Closing Ceremony will be set at the Beijing National Stadium, aka the Bird's Nest, and directed by Oscar-nominated filmmaker Zhang Yimou. 

Traditionally, the Closing Ceremony features a parade of flags and athletes representing the participating countries, starting with Greece and ending with the host nation. There is also a presentation of medals from the last event. 

Finally, the Olympic flame will be extinguished after a torch is passed on to the next host country, which is Italy. The mayors of the host cities, Milan and Cortina-D’Ampezzo, will also receive Olympic flags.

Here is a guide on watching the 2022 Winter Olympics Closing Ceremony live online.

How to watch the Closing Ceremony for free

It's not hard to watch the Closing Ceremony for free, so you don't need to pay to root for your nation's athletes take the big stage.  Australia has the best way to watch the Olympics without paying, on 7Plus. Australians who are vacationing abroad can use a VPN, such as ExpressVPN (our #1 pick) to evade the geo-blocking walls that would stop them from watching abroad. More on how to do that below.

In the U.S., you can watch some Winter Olympics coverage, including the Closing Ceremony, for free on NBC if you get the local channel with one of the best TV antennas. 

For those in the U.K., BBC iPlayer is the way to watch the Olympics Closing Ceremony for free. Canada's CBC and New Zealand's TVNZ also offer free Olympics coverage.

How to watch the Closing Ceremony from anywhere in the world

The Olympics is a global event and can be viewed in almost every country on Earth. However, if you're not in your home country and can't watch the Closing Ceremony live stream with your usual services — or you want to watch in your native language — you're not out of luck. With a virtual private network, or VPN, you can appear to be surfing the web from your home town (or somewhere that blackouts won't hit), and access the same streaming services you already paid for. 

Not sure which VPN is right for you? We've tested many different services and our pick for the best VPN overall is ExpressVPN. It offers superb speeds and excellent customer service. But you've got other VPN options as well. Here are our top picks.

Using a VPN is incredibly simple.

1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, ExpressVPN is our favorite.

2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance if you're in the U.S. and want to view a U.K. service, you'd select U.K. from the list.

3. Sit back and enjoy the action. Head to your website or streaming service of choice and tune in.

While Peacock does not stream in 4K, some 2022 Winter Olympics will be in 4K on YouTube TV. 

YouTube TV is one of the best cable TV alternatives for cord cutters. You'll need the 4K Plus add-on to access ultra high-def coverage. 

The 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics are already seeing some hot competition! Team USA has already won gold medals in snowboard cross and men's figure skating. More medals are sure to follow.

Athletes from all around the world have gathered to compete in a record 109 events over 15 disciplines in seven sports. The Winter Olympics 2022 schedule runs across 17 days and is jam-packed with events ranging from figure skating to bobsledding to skiing.

The Olympics is a global event and can be viewed in almost every country on Earth.

Are the 2022 Winter Olympics streaming on Peacock?

The answer is yes! The Beijing Winter Olympics will be streaming on Peacock.

And if you were disappointed with Peacock's coverage of the 2021 Tokyo Summer Olympics, there's good news. Peacock will stream every minute of every live event that airs on broadcast and cable TV. That means it's easy to watch figure skating and watch ice hockey too.

While Peacock has a free tier, Olympics coverage will only be available with Peacock Premium, which costs $4.99 per month or the ad-supported plan or $9.99 for the ad-limited plan.

How to watch the Winter Olympics in the UK

Brits have it easy when it comes to watching the 2022 Winter Olympics — they can just tune into BBC and BBC iPlayer.

However, BBC doesn't have a monopoly on Olympics coverage in the U.K. and it won't broadcast all events.

To watch every event live, you'll instead want to subscribe to Discovery Plus UK, which is offering coverage of every event in Beijing. Subscriptions are available for £6.99/month or £29.99/year. The service is available to stream through a multitude of devices include Chromecast, Apple TV, Android TV and apps for iOS and Android.

If you're traveling outside of the U.K. and have a valid U.K. TV license, you can still follow the Winter Olympics by using one of the best VPN services, such as ExpressVPN.

YouTube TV is one of the best cable TV alternatives for cord cutters. You'll need the 4K Plus add-on to access ultra high-def coverage. 

Currently, YouTube TV is the only live TV service that has announced they are streaming the Winter Olympic Games in 4K. That could change; during the Tokyo Summer Olympics, fuboTV streamed 4K content.

Toe pick! It's time to watch the 2022 Winter Olympics figure skating, as live streams are beaming in from Beijing. Figure skating is one of the most popular Winter Olympics sports and this edition should feature some heated battles on the ice. 

Team USA has already won the silver medal in the team event, while Nathan Chen earned gold in the individual men's competition. 

Even before you watch the Winter Olympics opening ceremony, you can see Olympics figure skating because the team event starts on February 3 (in U.S time zones). 

The team event features 10 qualifying countries, including Team USA. Each country's coach can create their own mix of skaters to compete in eight events — short and free programs for men’s, women’s, pairs and ice dance.

Team USA is represented by Nathan Chen, Mariah Bell, Karen Chen, Alysa Liu, Alexa Knierim, Brandon Frazier, Jean-Luc Baker, Kaitlin Hawayek, Evan Bates,  Madison Chock, Ashley Cain-Gribble, Timothy LeDuc, Jason Brown, Vincent Zhou, Zachary Donohue and Madison Hubbell.

It's time to carve some fresh powder by watching the 2022 Winter Olympics snowboarding events, and one familiar face is looking to make history on the slopes. 

Of course, that's Shaun White, the face of snowboarding in America. At age 35, White aims to take home his fourth gold medal and climb the ladder of Americans with the most Winter Olympic gold.

White has said that this will be his final Olympic Games, so watch the Winter Olympics opening ceremony while you can to see him walk through the glitz and glam. 

There are a lot of eyes on the youths of the sport, such as American Chloe Kim (21). Kim set records when she took home gold in the 2018 women's snowboard halfpipe at age 17. She's one of the top Americans expected to take more gold this year as well. 

As for snowboarders looking to catch big air in the slopestyle events, Jamie Anderson (31) is the only woman to take gold in the event before, winning in 2014 and 2018 after the competition was added to the Olympics. Naturally, she's a favorite to do it again this year.

Of course, the 35-year-old Shaun White is bringing his massive mop of red hair to Beijing, as what would snowboarding be without the "Flying Tomato?" 

Jamie Anderson (31), the sole USA gold medalist in Olympic women’s slopestyle snowboarding, is also returning.

Here is the complete roster of U.S. snowboarders sent to the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics, in the order presented on their official site.

It's time to let slapshots fly and watch the 2022 Winter Olympics ice hockey, as Team USA is already winning in Beijing. And America's women's Olympic ice hockey team is looking to repeat as gold medalists as they defend their 2018 win against Canada.

So, after you watch watch the Winter Olympics opening ceremony, you can tune into the preliminary rounds for both the men's and women's teams as they try and advance. The women's team is expected to be in the gold medal game again this year, up against their rivals from the northern border. 

And those expectations are natural when Team USA has 13 players from the 2018 gold medal team coming back. Those include goalie Maddie Rooney (of Duluth, MN) and Hilary Knight (of Sun Valley, ID). Knight was the youngest member of Team USA when she debuted in 2010, and she brings the following accolades with her: three Olympic medals, eight world titles and the all-time U.S. points total record (80).

The big sour note about this year's Olympic ice hockey is that the NHL declined to send any players to Beijing. And, unsurprisingly, the NHL made this decision out of of concern over Covid-19 outbreaks, which had already been taking place in the NFL prior to last Christmas. 

Instead, we're getting a mix of college hockey stars and former pro hockey players. Mixing and matching for the sake of experience and youth may sound like a good idea, but why not just go with the best college hockey team? They'd already have cohesion.

Check out our complete guide on how to watch ice hockey at the 2022 Winter Olympics.

We're a day away from being able to watch the 2022 Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics opening ceremony live online. While many Olympic events grade on style, the official start of the event is always your destination for the glamorous moments. 

The 2022 Winter Olympics Opening Ceremony will require a strong cup of caffeine, as the games are being held in Beijing with a local start time of 7:30 p.m.. The east coast only has to wake up by 6:30 a.m., while those out west may just decide to watch the rebroadcast, as that's 3:30 a.m. PT. 

The Beijing Olympics will feature a cauldron lighting that will be "unprecedented in the over 100-year history of the Olympic Games," or so said chief director Zhang Yimou in an interview with Xinhua (via China Daily). He also directed the 2008 Beijing Games opening and closing ceremonies. After that, we've got our eyes on the Winter Olympics 2022 figure skating and the Olympic ice hockey too, and a full schedule is available.

But unlike 2008's event, this year's games are being held under the now-familiar restrictions needed to continue to fight the Covid-19 pandemic. Foreign fans will not be allowed in the venue, and local spectators will be at a minimum.

Check out our complete guide on watching the Opening Ceremony for the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics. Plus, the specter of diplomatic boycotts and potential athlete protests will be present due to China's human rights abuses. 

For more sports, here's what you need to watch the Tom Brady documentary series Man in the Arena online.

The Olympics is a global event and can be viewed in almost every country on Earth. However, if you're not in your home country and can't watch the Opening Ceremony live stream with your usual services — or you want to watch in your native language — you're not out of luck. With a virtual private network, or VPN, you can appear to be surfing the web from your home town (or somewhere that blackouts won't hit), and access the same streaming services you already paid for. 

Not sure which VPN is right for you? We've tested many different services and our pick for the best VPN overall is ExpressVPN. It offers superb speeds and excellent customer service. But you've got other VPN options as well. Here are our top picks.

Is the 2022 Opening Ceremony streaming on Peacock?

The answer is yes! The Beijing Winter Olympics Opening Ceremony will be streaming live on Peacock at 6:30 a.m. ET / 3:30 a.m. PT on Friday (Feb. 4). It will rebroadcast on Peacock at 8 p.m. ET / 5 p.m. PT.

And if you were disappointed with Peacock's coverage of the 2021 Tokyo Summer Olympics, there's good news. Peacock will stream every minute of every live event that airs on broadcast and cable TV.

While Peacock has a free tier, Olympics coverage will only be available with Peacock Premium, which costs $4.99 per month or the ad-supported plan or $9.99 for the ad-limited plan.

How to watch the Opening Ceremony in the UK

Brits have probably the easiest time watching 2022 Opening Ceremony — they can just tune into BBC One or watch on BBC iPlayer at 11:30 a.m. GMT. It will be rebroadcast on Red Button One at 9:30 p.m. GMT.

However, BBC doesn't have a monopoly on Olympics coverage in the U.K. and it won't broadcast all events.

To watch every event live, you'll instead want to subscribe to Discovery Plus UK, which is offering coverage of every event in Beijing. Subscriptions are available for £6.99/month or £29.99/year. The service is available to stream through a multitude of devices include Chromecast, Apple TV, Android TV and apps for iOS and Android.

Can you watch the Opening Ceremony in 4K?

NBC is broadcasting select Winter Olympics events in 4K UHD, but it's unclear if the Opening Ceremony is one of them. We will update this story if and when we learn more. 

While Peacock does not stream in 4K, some 2022 Winter Olympics will be in 4K on YouTube TV. 

YouTube TV is one of the best cable TV alternatives for cord cutters. You'll need the 4K Plus add-on to access ultra high-def coverage. 

Currently, YouTube TV is the only live TV service that has announced that it's streaming the Winter Olympic Games in 4K. That could change; during the Tokyo Summer Olympics, fuboTV streamed 4K content.

Tokyo Paralympics is taking its turn in the spotlight. Just a few weeks after the Olympics ended, another set of world-class athletes are competing in 539 events across 22 sports. We've got everything you need to watch the Tokyo Paralympics live stream from wherever you are — even for free and without cable TV. 

In addition to the usual events in wheelchair basketball, swimming, track and field, powerlifting, rowing and equestrian, two new sports — badminton and taekwondo — make their debuts at this edition of the Paralympics. 

Team USA features a number of standout Paralympians to watch: swimming stars McKenzie Coan, Jessica Long and Anastasia Pagonis; 2016 Rio wheelchair basketball gold medal winner Steve Serio; sitting volleyball ace Nicky Nieves, also a gold medalist from Rio; "fastest blind man in the world" David Brown; and triathlon athlete Melissa Stockwell, an Army vet with a Bronze Star and Purple Heart.

How to watch the Tokyo Paralympics from anywhere in the world

The Paralympics is a global event and can be viewed in almost every country on Earth. However, if you're not in your home country and can't watch the Tokyo Paralympics live stream with your usual services — or you want to watch in your native language — you're not out of luck. With a virtual private network, or VPN, you can appear to be surfing the web from your home town (or somewhere that blackouts won't hit), and access the same streaming services you already paid for. 

Not sure which VPN is right for you? We've tested many different services and our pick for the best VPN overall is ExpressVPN. It offers superb speeds and excellent customer service. But you've got other VPN options as well. Here are our top picks.

Using a VPN is incredibly simple.

1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, ExpressVPN is our favorite.

2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance if you're in the U.S. and want to view a U.K. service, you'd select U.K. from the list.

3. Sit back and enjoy the action. Head to your website or streaming service of choice and tune in.

How to watch the Tokyo Paralympics in the US

It's almost time to watch the Tokyo Olympics closing ceremony, which concludes two weeks of world-class competition. The closing ceremony will follow medal finals for water polo, volleyball, boxing and marathon on Sunday.

The Tokyo Olympics has proven to be a memorable one, mostly because it has taken place during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. It was delayed from 2020, and despite some criticism, proceeded this summer without spectators and with rigorous testing, mask and social distancing measures. 

Like the opening ceremony, the Tokyo Olympics closing ceremony will occur without an audience — only athletes and performers. The event will feature the bestowal of final medals, a parade of nations' flags, a victory parade and the transfer of the Olympic flag to the next host city (which is Paris in 2024). Then, the Olympic flame is extinguished. 

Here's everything you need to watch the Tokyo Olympics closing ceremony live.

How to watch Tokyo Olympics closing ceremony live in the US

Americans have several options for watching the Tokyo Olympics closing ceremony. If they want to see it live, it is set for 7 a.m. ET and will air on NBC and stream on Peacock.

NBC is part of the $35 per month Sling TV Blue package. Sling is one of the best streaming services alongside our other recommendation for Olympics viewing: Fubo TV, which has 100-plus channels (many more than Sling), including all of the above networks. 

How to watch Tokyo Olympics closing ceremony live in the UK

To watch the Tokyo Olympics closing ceremony live in the UK, Brits will want to subscribe to Discovery Plus, which is offering full coverage of Tokyo 2020. Full schedule is below.

The BBC iPlayer has been the go-to source for all Olympics coverage for those in the U.K., but things have changed.

The BBC no longer has the monopoly on Olympics coverage in the U.K., after the IOC sold the main European rights to the Discovery network. As a result, the BBC's coverage, though still good, is limited to no more than two live events at one time.  

The Tokyo Olympics closing ceremony will air live in the U.K. starting at 11:55 a.m. BST on BBC One.

Americans abroad can just use the service of their choice, provided they log in via a VPN such as ExpressVPN.

How to watch Tokyo Olympics closing ceremony live in Canada

Sportsnet, CBC and TSN are sharing coverage of the Olympics, so Canadians can find live and tape-delayed events on those channels. The Tokyo Olympics closing ceremony will air live on TSN at 7 a.m. ET.

Again, Americans visiting their friends in the great white north could just use Peacock, Sling, Fubo and other services, provided they log in via a VPN such as ExpressVPN.

It's gold time. Yes, tonight's Team USA vs. Brazil volleyball live stream is the long-awaited final step in the American side's quest for its first ever gold medal in the Olympic games. And so far they've been doing it with style. 

America dominated the Dominican Republic in the quarter-final game 3-0, and then blanked the Serbia team by the same score in the semi-finals. But back in Pool B play of these Tokyo Olympics, Team USA wasn't the same untouchable squad. ROC beat them 3-0, and their 3-2 win over Italy wasn't easy. 

Right now, Team USA looks strong, but they could be even stronger. Their top-scorer, Jordan Thompson, is currently sidelined after an ankle injury that took her out of play. She's been cheering from the sidelines, and celebrating with teammates on-court after wins. Setter Jordyn Poulter, thankfully, was able to return for the Serbia game, after rolling her ankle in pool games.

Brazil, though, has been strong in their own right, blanking South Korea 3-0 in the semi-final. Brazil is also the only undefeated team in all pool and knockout game play in the volleyball matches at the Tokyo Olympics. They're also the World's No. 2 ranked team to USA's No. 1.  

Previously, Brazil got knocked out in the quarter-finals in 2016, but took gold in 2008 and 2012. So, will USA finally get gold, or will Brazil return to the top of the podium?

Next, find your streaming/cable login, because NBCOlympics.com — the only place to watch this match live — requires one. NBC will join the game already in progress, no rebroadcast time is announced yet.

Of course, the nightly coverage on Peacock will likely include updates as well. 

NBCSN is part of the $35 per month Sling TV Blue package, and Olympics-watchers will want the Blue package, which also has NBC. The Olympic Channel is also available as a $11 per month add-on.

How to watch the Olympics for free

There are multiple ways for you to watch the Olympics for free, so you don't need to pay to root for your nation's athletes to get the gold.  Australia has the best way to watch the Olympics without paying, as 7Plus has most of the events (up to 16 live streams!) without paying. Australians who are vacationing abroad can use a VPN, such ExpressVPN (our #1 pick) to evade the geo-blocking walls that would stop them from watching abroad. More on how to do that below.

Then there's Peacock , which has a lot of the Olympics for free. Yes, while you can pay for Peacock, it also has a free tier, where most of the Olympic events are available, and that includes the Tokyo Tonight highlights show we love. The one thing you'll miss out on is live men's Team USA basketball games (paywalled behind the $4.99 plan). Peacock also has a ton of non-Olympic content, including movies and TV shows. 

For those in the U.K., BBC iPlayer is the way to watch the Olympics for free, it will have up to two live events at the same time. Canada's CBC and New Zealand's TVNZ also offer free Olympics coverage.

Trying to figure out how to watch the Tokyo Olympics without commercials? Well, just ask the Brits, who have it that way on the BBC and BBC iPlayer.

However, this year the BBC won't have the monopoly on Olympics coverage in the U.K., with the IOC having sold the main European rights to the Discovery network. As a result, the BBC's coverage, though still good, is limited to no more than two live events at one time. 

To watch every event live, you'll instead want to subscribe to Discovery+, which is offering coverage of every event at Tokyo 2020.

How to watch the Olympics in 4K and 8K

NBC is broadcasting the Tokyo Olympics in 4K HDR for the first time. Coverage will also be accompanied by Dolby Atmos surround sound. Events that will be featured in 4K HDR include track and field, gymnastics, swimming, diving, tennis, golf, beach volleyball and more.

However, not every cable provider is offering the 4K feed. Comcast, Dish Network, and DirecTV will have it if you have a 4K-capable set-top box. And of course, you will need one of the best 4K TVs to display the feed with better resolution and more vivid colors.

It's even possible to watch the Olympics in 8K — if you have access to the Japanese broadcaster NHK. The network is shooting some of the Tokyo Olympics in 8K. It will show both the opening and closing ceremonies in the super-high resolution format. 

Tokyo Olympics schedule and important events

In the gymnastics women's all-around live stream on Thursday, July 29, we saw Sunisa Lee win Olympic gold after Simone Biles unfortunately withdrew from the event. Biles did compete in the last day of event finals, but we won't spoil the results here. We've got everything you need to figure out how to watch Team USA gymnastics.

We also have our eyes on Kevin Durant in the Team USA basketball games. Durant became the #1 scoring Team USA men's olympian of all time, and they're currently in the knockout rounds.

This is it: the Team USA vs France live stream is here and it's going to bring the gold. And all signs suggest the win goes to Kevin Durant's team of NBA all stars (who needs LeBron?), as he's definitely proven himself to be the leader that the American side needed.

The gold medal is the (obvious) goal for Durant and Team USA, but he's already canonized himself in Team USA history. Against the Czech Republic, which USA defeated 119-84, Durant's offense made him the top scorer in Team USA men's basketball history. 

So, what do we know about France? It comes hot off a win by the smallest of margins, beating Luca Doncic and Slovenia in a 90-89 game. Defense won that game, with a late-game block from Nicolas Batum. 

Meanwhile, Team USA beat Australia (which beat them in preliminary action) by the score of 97-78. That included a massive third-quarter performance where USA outscored Australia 32-10. 

But Team USA knows it has to go hard on defense, as Devin Booker told the press "Guarding, that's what it comes down to ... That's what we talked about in the locker room. Offense is going to come. We have a lot of talented guys out here, but we have to be on the same page on defense." 

We're not going to jinx the Americans for this Team USA basketball live stream from the Tokyo Olympics, but we're wondering who (if anyone) is betting against them.

How to watch Team USA vs France live streams in the US

Unless you have a cable account and can watch on NBCOlympics.com, you'll need NBC's streaming service Peacock to see the Team USA vs France live streams at 10:30 p.m. ET / 7:30 p.m. PT today (August 6).

For the tape-delayed stream at 6 p.m. ET, you'll want USA while NBCSN has the 11 p.m. rebroadcast. Both are included in the $35 per month Sling TV Blue package. The Sports Extra package ($11 per month extra) gets you the Olympic channel. Sling is one of the best streaming services alongside our other recommendation for Olympics viewing: Fubo TV, which has 100-plus channels (many more than Sling), including all of the above networks. 

How to watch Team USA vs France live streams in the UK

Team USA vs France will most likely be available on the new service Discovery Plus, and at around 3:30 a.m. BST. Discovery Plus has bought the rights to full coverage of the Tokyo Olympics, breaking the BBC's previous monopoly. This year, the BBC is limited to no more than two live events at one time, whereas every single sport and every single event is available on Discovery+ or via the Eurosport channel.

Discovery is currently offering a three-day free trial of the service, with full subscriptions available for £6.99/month or £29.99/year after that. Plus, the service is available to stream through a multitude of devices include Chromecast, Apple TV, Android TV and apps for iOS and Android.

Americans abroad could just use the service of their choice, provided they log in via a VPN such as ExpressVPN.

How to watch Team USA vs France live streams in Canada

The Olympics continue to confuse for those following along in Canada. TSN2 and TSN4 may be the best bets for watching Team USA vs France live, as they have "2020 Tokyo Olympics" blocks airing during this time.

Sportsnet's SN and SN1 channels list "Scheduled events include - Beach Volleyball, Canoe Sprint & Baseball" for the evening block.

Again, Americans visiting their friends in the great white north could just use Peacock, provided they log in via a VPN such as ExpressVPN.

The 2021 Tokyo Olympics might be the dawn of a new day for Team USA's volleyball dreams. And while they're down one of their biggest stars, they may take the gold after all.

Injured in a match (that the team lost) against the Russian Olympic Committee, Thompson is the biggest name on the team. And while she did not return for the game against the Dominican Republic, Team USA won anyways. 

But then Jordyn Poulter rolled her ankle in the game against Italy (which the team won), and also was not in the game against the DR. And now, in the Team USA vs. Brazil women's volleyball live stream they're going for the gold!

In 2016, the highly touted U.S. only took bronze, after falling to Serbia in the semifinals. And until these injuries, Robinson's team was undefeated in group play, and looking stronger than ever.

That's because they toppled China — the reigning champs — in straight sets: 29-27, 25-22, 25-21. That said, this happened to China in Rio in 2016, and they came back to take the gold then.

Ranked No. 1 in the world, the Team USA Women's Volleyball team has expectations to deal with, both from the world and themselves.

How to watch volleyball at the Tokyo Olympics from anywhere in the world

The Olympics is a global event and can be viewed in almost every country on Earth. However, if you're not in your home country and can't watch the Tokyo Olympics' volleyball matches with your usual services — or you want to watch in your native language — you're not out of luck. 

With a virtual private network, or VPN, you can appear to be surfing the web from your home town (or somewhere that blackouts won't hit), and access the same streaming services you already paid for. They're totally legal, inexpensive and easy to use. 

Not sure which VPN is right for you? We've tested many different services and our pick for the best VPN overall is ExpressVPN. It offers superb speeds and excellent customer service. But you've got other VPN options as well.

Of course, the nightly coverage on Peacock will likely include updates as well.

The Team USA's basketball game live streams from the Tokyo Olympics are ginally going right, and gold is within their sights. The USA vs France live stream gold medal game tonight will see the Americans look to keep their winning ways alive.

The men's half of Team USA may be down stars such as LeBron James, Steph Curry and Anthony Davis, but they've got Jrue Holiday, who came straight from helping the Bucks win the NBA Finals. Bam Adebayo chipped in 12 points and 10 rebounds. 

The women's side of Team USA has shined a bit in its first game, with a 23-0 run in the second quarter. But that was about it. Otherwise, Nigeria's strong defense was rough for the Americans to overcome. And now they're going for the gold against Japan on Saturday.

Karate is one of five new sports at the Tokyo Olympics. And it's not on the docket for Paris 2024, so this may be both the first and only time you can see a karate competition at the Olympics.

Karate consists of kata (forms) and kumite (sparring). In kata, a competitor choses from the 102 forms that are recognized by the World Karate Federation. As they demonstrate strength, speed, rhythm, balance and power of strikes, they are given points by judges. In kumite, two competitors face each other in a matted area and attack one another. Good form, power and control earn points from judges.

Team USA sent three karate athletes to Tokyo. Ariel Torres won the gold medal in men's kata at the 2019 Pan American Championships and is ranked 10th by the World Karate Federation. In women's kata, Sakura Kokumai is ranked No. 6 and took home a silver medal at the 2019 Pan American Championships. And in men's kumite, Brian Irr is the Pan American bronze medalist and ranked No. 9.

It's time for the Team USA vs. Serbia volleyball live stream, and it's time to see if the American side will be more filled-out than last time — or even need to be. They're facing what should be a high amount of adversity in the moment, but still winning like nothing is the matter. 

Down both setter Jordyn Poulter and star hitter Jordan Thompson, the United States women's volleyball team basically squished the Dominican Republic team in Wednesday's Tokyo Olympics game. And no signs suggest either will be back for this semi-final game against Serbia. 

Sure, Thompson posted on Instagram that she's "So thankful to be back in a jersey cheering my team on," but we're seeing zero signs that she'll be cleared to join them on the court. But will they need her, or Poulter? 

In that win, Andrea Drews proved to be the superstar that Team USA needs. She scored 21 points on 36 attempts, including 10 that came in the game-ending final set. Oh, and Drews didn't just lead the team to victory, the Americans dominated the Dominican Republic team in straight sets.

"Straight sets?" The Serbian team is likely hearing that and chuckling, as the silver medalists from Rio's games took down Italy in straight sets in their own matchup.

The Team USA Women's Volleyball team is ranked No. 1 in the world, but the team has yet to win gold in volleyball at the Olympics. So, hopes are higher than the net.

Of the services you will want for these games, Peacock will help you see highlights at night, while Sling TV and Fubo TV can help you catch games on tape-delay. Your login from the latter will help you watch the games live.

How to watch Team USA vs. Serbia from anywhere in the world

The Olympics is a global event and can be viewed in almost every country on Earth. However, if you're not in your home country and can't watch Team USA vs. Serbia with your usual services — or you want to watch in your native language — you're not out of luck. 

With a virtual private network, or VPN, you can appear to be surfing the web from your home town (or somewhere that blackouts won't hit), and access the same streaming services you already paid for. They're totally legal, inexpensive and easy to use. 

Not sure which VPN is right for you? We've tested many different services and our pick for the best VPN overall is ExpressVPN. It offers superb speeds and excellent customer service. But you've got other VPN options as well.

Using a VPN is incredibly simple.

1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, ExpressVPN is our favorite.

2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance if you're in the U.S. and want to view a U.K. service, you'd select U.K. from the list.

3. Sit back and enjoy the action. Head to your website or streaming service of choice and tune in.

This one's going to be easy to watch live, at least for those out west. The Team USA vs Serbia live stream airs at 12 a.m. ET Friday, August 6 (which is still Thursday night for most folks).

Next, find your streaming/cable login, because NBCOlympics.com — the only place to watch this match live — requires one. NBC will join the game already in progress, no rebroadcast time is announced yet.

Of course, the nightly coverage on Peacock will likely include updates as well. 

NBCSN is part of the $35 per month Sling TV Blue package, and Olympics-watchers will want the Blue package, which also has NBC. The Olympic Channel is also available as a $11 per month add-on. 

Sling is one of the best streaming services alongside our other recommendation for Olympics viewing: Fubo TV, which has 100-plus channels (many more than Sling), including all of the above networks.

To watch every event live, you'll want to subscribe to Discovery Plus, which is offering coverage of every event at Tokyo 2020; all of the Olympics volleyball games (including Team USA vs. Serbia) will likely be on the service. 

Discovery is currently offering a three-day free trial of the service, with full subscriptions available for £6.99/month or £29.99/year after that. Plus, the service is available to stream through a multitude of devices include Chromecast, Apple TV, Android TV and apps for iOS and Android.

The BBC iPlayer has been the go-to source for all Olympics coverage for those in the U.K., but things have changed.

The BBC won't have the monopoly on Olympics coverage in the U.K., with the IOC having sold the main European rights to the Discovery network. As a result, the BBC's coverage, though still good, is limited to no more than two live events at one time. 

Americans abroad could just use the service of their choice, provided they log in via a VPN such as ExpressVPN.

How to watch Team USA vs. Serbia live in Canada

It looks like the Team USA vs. Serbia game is mostly likely on Sportsnet's SN or SN1 channels. That's because their midnight block of programming is described as "Scheduled events include - Table Tennis & Volleyball"

It could also be on TSN — either TSN2, TSN4 or TSN5 , that is — as there's olympic coverage during those hours as well.

CBC is also sharing coverage of the Olympics, so you may need to channel surf if you can't find it. TLN is also showing off some of the Olympic Games, though judging by the schedule they will be on tape-delay. 

Again, Americans visiting their friends in the great white north could just use Peacock, Sling, Fubo and other services, provided they log in via a VPN such as ExpressVPN.

The Team USA vs Australia live stream is the end of the line for Megan Rapinoe's squad. Yes, while we thought about their match against Canada as just a step on the road to gold, that was not meant to be. And it went down in heartbreaking fashion.

Team USA lost 1-0 to Canada in the semi-finals matchup, and seemed to have the better overall game. But, as often happens in sport, one single moment proved too costly. At the 72th minute, the U.S.'s Tierna Davidson got caught up with Canada's Deanne Rose, while Canada had sent a ball long above the Team USA defense.

One VAR review later, referee Kateryna Monzul set up a penalty kick. Canada’s Jessie Fleming would fire the ball to the right side of the net, too far from substitute goalkeeper Adrianna Franch’s reach. 

Franch was in the game after Team USA lost Alyssa Naeher in the 30th minute, due to a knee injury. In the 22nd minute, she landed awkwardly after leaping to defend a service and stayed down for a few minutes. While she stayed in the match for another eight minutes, Naeher had to be replaced by Adrianna Franch (in her seventh USWNT appearance ever).

How to watch Team USA vs Australia live streams in the US

You have two ways to watch Team USA vs Australia. But there's only one air time listed, as the game is set for today (August 5) at 4 a.m. ET. That's a live airing, and no rebroadcast is noted.

We assume replays will air on Peacock, which has free coverage of most of the Olympics, save for the Men's Basketball games.

If you have a cable or streaming login, you can watch the game live on NBCOlympics.com. That said, US Soccer notes (the NBC site does not), that this game will be live on both USA and Telemundo. 

If you've cut the cable, you can find USA on the Sling TV Blue package. The Sports Extra package ($11 per month extra) gets you the Olympic channel. Sling is one of the best streaming services alongside our other recommendation for Olympics viewing: Fubo TV, which has 100+ channels (many more than Sling), including all of the above networks, including Telemundo and NBCSN.

The Team USA vs Australia live stream is the former's chance for the gold. Yes, after a rocky start, the American side won its last three in a row, and looks completely different from the team that dropped a game to the Aussies. Yes, back in the preliminaries, USA lost this match. My how times have changed.

That said, nobody is ready to count out Australia. Especially with the likes of Matthew Dellavedova, Dante Exum, Joe Ingles, Patty Mills and Matisse Thybulle. They'd normally have Aron Baynes, but he fell to a neck injury. 

Team USA is not slouching, though, as the three-point shooting from the American side has been a beast, enabling their 95-81 win over Spain. The only trouble the US faced early came from when Ricky Rubio started with 13 points in the first quarter and then an 11-0 run built a 40-29 lead for Spain.

Then, Kevin Durant did what he does best: score. He had the team-high of 31 points, going 10 out of 17 for field goals, four for seven on threes and a perfect five out of five at the line. Jayson Tatum also assisted on threes, hitting three out of five.

If Australia wants to repeat its preliminary success, they'll be looking for Matisse Thybulle to limit Durant's offense. While they're not favored to win this Team USA basketball live stream from the Tokyo Olympics, they should have confidence after a huge 97-59 win over Argentina.

Those who tuned in to watch the equestrian events at the Tokyo Olympics may have gotten a big surprise. Yes, one of Team USA's hopefuls this year is Jessica Springsteen — the daughter of Bruce Springsteen and Patti Scialfa. Unfortunately, she isn't racing in the street to the gold medal just yet. 

But she's not done with the Olympics yet. Springsteen is a part of the Jumping Team, which has qualifiers and finals later this week. She and her horse, the 12-year-old Don Juan van de Donkhoeve, come into the games ranked 14th in the world.

If you failed to stay up in time for the early AM broadcast, you've got two more chances to watch the Jumping Individual Final. It's on NBC at noon Eastern and 11:45 p.m. on NBCSN.

Not all is glitz and glamour for the equestrian competitions. Australia's down one Jamie Kermond, after he tested positive for a metabolite of cocaine — on the first day of the games. 

Canada's got a literal horse in this proverbial race, as Mario Deslauriers and his horse Bardolina 2 qualified with a time of 84.76 and no penalties.

Round and round they go when you watch track cycling at the Tokyo Olympics. Track cycling has begun, with the women's team pursuit and men's team sprint already handing out medals, but more pursuit, spring, keirin, omnium and madison races are to come.

Team USA won one of those medals, the bronze in women's team pursuit. They look to add more prizes as the races unfold this week.

On the women's side, Jennifer Valente will be a strong contender in the omnium, after winning silver in the last world championships. She is also competing in the madison relay race with 19-year-old rising star Megan Jastrab. Meanwhile, Maddie Godby is a two-time world cup keirin gold medalist who will vie in that race as well as the individual sprint.

On the men's side, world cup omnium bronze medalist Gavin Hoover is competing in his first Olympics. He is also racing in the madison with Adrian Hegyvary.

It's time for the Team USA vs. Dominican Republic volleyball live stream, a skirmish to get to the semi-finals, and the big questions at hand all rotate around injuries. The winner will advance to Friday's early AM match, but if it's the American side, how healthy will they be in this Tokyo Olympics game?

Yes, we could be bullish on the American team — injured all-star Jordan Thompson is expected to be available for this quarter-final game — as they were the top ranked team going in. But setter Jordyn Poulter rolled her ankle in the game against Italy, during the third set. 

If Thompson is back and at full form for this game, the team definitely has a chance. That said, four of the DR team scored in double-digits in their win to oust Japan from the tournament. Prisilla Rivera Brens (17 points) led the team, and looks to be a threat in the quarter-final.

One of the biggest names for Team USA will likely be Annie Drews. She led Team USA with 19 kills and three blocks, as she started in Thompson's place. Also of note was Michelle Bartsch-Hackley (13 kills, two blocks and two aces).

With a virtual private network, or VPN, you can appear to be surfing the web from your home town (or somewhere that blackouts won't hit), and access the same streaming services you already paid for. They're totally legal, inexpensive and easy to use. 

Not sure which VPN is right for you? We've tested many different services and our pick for the best VPN overall is ExpressVPN. It offers superb speeds and excellent customer service. But you've got other VPN options as well.

Using a VPN is incredibly simple.

1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, ExpressVPN is our favorite.

2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance if you're in the U.S. and want to view a U.K. service, you'd select U.K. from the list.

3. Sit back and enjoy the action. Head to your website or streaming service of choice and tune in.

How to watch Team USA vs. Dominican Republic live in the US

This one's going to be easy to watch live, at least for those out west. The Team USA vs Dominican Republic live stream airs at 12 a.m. ET tonight (which is technically tomorrow, August 3). 

Next, find your streaming/cable login, because NBCOlympics.com — the only place to watch this match live — requires one. NBC will join the game already in progress, no rebroadcast time is announced yet.

Of course, the nightly coverage on Peacock will likely include updates as well. 

NBCSN is part of the $35 per month Sling TV Blue package, and Olympics-watchers will want the Blue package, which also has NBC. The Olympic Channel is also available as a $11 per month add-on. 

Sling is one of the best streaming services alongside our other recommendation for Olympics viewing: Fubo TV, which has 100-plus channels (many more than Sling), including all of the above networks.

To watch every event live, you'll want to subscribe to Discovery Plus, which is offering coverage of every event at Tokyo 2020; all of the Olympics volleyball games (including Team USA vs. Dominican Republic) will likely be on the service. 

Discovery is currently offering a three-day free trial of the service, with full subscriptions available for £6.99/month or £29.99/year after that. Plus, the service is available to stream through a multitude of devices include Chromecast, Apple TV, Android TV and apps for iOS and Android.

The BBC iPlayer has been the go-to source for all Olympics coverage for those in the U.K., but things have changed.

The BBC won't have the monopoly on Olympics coverage in the U.K., with the IOC having sold the main European rights to the Discovery network. As a result, the BBC's coverage, though still good, is limited to no more than two live events at one time. 

Americans abroad could just use the service of their choice, provided they log in via a VPN such as ExpressVPN.

How to watch Team USA vs. Dominican Republic live in Canada

It looks like the Team USA vs. Dominican Republic game is mostly likely on Sportsnet's SN or SN1 channels. That's because their midnight block of programming is described as "Scheduled events include - Baseball & Volleyball"

It could also be on TSN — either TSN1 or TSN4 , that is — as there's olympic coverage during those hours as well.

CBC is also sharing coverage of the Olympics, so you may need to channel surf if you can't find it. TLN is also showing off some of the Olympic Games, though judging by the schedule they will be on tape-delay. 

Again, Americans visiting their friends in the great white north could just use Peacock, Sling, Fubo and other services, provided they log in via a VPN such as ExpressVPN.

The last chances to watch skateboarding at the Tokyo Olympics are coming up, and Team USA is hoping to add to its sole bronze medal with some golds. Yes, after Jagger Eaton medaled in the street competition this past Sunday, teammate Heimana Reynolds from Hawaii looks to take gold in the park event.

Yes, the final events of the men's and women's skateboarding Olympic competition are "park" format, taking the style of skateboarding born out of Venice Beach, CA to the big games. This format, with its steeper edges of bowls and ramps, enables higher velocity gains in shorter times, which could make for more awesome moves.

Reynolds is likely wondering how Japan's Hirano Ayumu, a two-time Winter Olympic medalist, will compete. Japan's already taken two golds After including one from Horigome Yuto in the street event on July 25. 

The women's side of the Olympic skateboarding events features tons of prodigious talent, with Japan's Hiraki Kokona looking to show the world what a 12-year-old an do. Team GB's fielding its own super-young talent, the 13-year-old Sky Brown.

Also keep your eyes out for Finland's Lizzie Armanto, the only female skater to complete Tony Hawk's 360 loop.

This is not how the USWNT wanted to watch soccer at the Tokyo Olympics, from the sidelines for the gold medal game. But an injured goalkeeper and one penalty kick gave Team USA the boot from the main part of the tournament. 

Canada will now take on Sweden in Friday's matchup, while Team USA will take on Australia early Thursday morning. And we've got everything you need to watch the Team USA vs Australia live stream.

Before that, let's just think about how good of an effort the USWNT gave it, eliminated in a 1-0 game where that despicable VAR opened up a penalty kick. that game may not have ended as it did, if Jessie Fleming didn't take the ball from Canada's Christian Sinclair, to shoot it herself.

Sweden also advanced on a 1-0 victory, a 46th minute goal from Fridolina Rolfo. And with that, Sweden's looking to upgrade that silver they got in Rio to a Gold.

It's time for more medals in sport climbing at the Tokyo Olympics, as the men's and women's combined finals are coming up soon. One of the newest Olympic events (alongside Olympic skateboarding), sport climbing is seriously intense due to how fast some events can be completed.

Some climbers, in fact, have finished in a mere six seconds. But speed — which is expected to be dominated by Tomoa Narasaki of Japan — is just one of three disciplines for climbers, as lead and bouldering are also on the menu. 

For bouldering, Team USA's Kyra Condie is one to keep an eye on, as she's had to create unusual and risky movements to navigate things — because of limited mobility in her back due to an upper spine fusing she had to have due to scoliosis when she was a child.

Lead's maybe the toughest, as it's got long routes that are designed to be practically unclimbable. The Czech Republic's Adam Ondra is a leader for this competition, as he's famous for contorting his body in odd ways to make it along.

Simone Biles is back! She's is returning in the gymnastics beam final live stream at the Tokyo Olympics. Team USA teammate all-around champion Sunisa Lee will also compete in the beam final. 

Last week, Biles withdrew from the team final to focus on her mental health. She also did not participate in the all-around or event finals for vault, uneven bars, and floor exercise.

Yesterday, Team USA Gymnastics announced that Biles will be competing in the last individual medal event for gymnastics.

"We are so excited to confirm that you will see two U.S. athletes in the balance beam final tomorrow - Suni Lee AND Simone Biles!! Can't wait to watch you both," they tweeted.

The top eight gymnasts from the qualifying round move on to finals, though only two athletes per country may compete in the event.

Group play is over and the Team USA vs Spain live stream is happening right now. But while Kevin Durant and his team ride in with a wave of momentum, this may not be a blowout like either of the team's previous wins (against Iran and the Czech Republic) were.

Spain's team, thanks to superstar talent including Marc and Pau Gasol, Ricky Rubio and Rudy Fernandez, is not to be looked past. After all, they took the silver in 2008 and 2012. 

That said, now that Team USA is warmed up, it's likely going to be hard to stop, even without big names like LeBron James. USA walks into this game off a dominant victory, beating the Czech Republic team 119-84 on Saturday. This is a knockout round game, where the winner goes on to face the winner of Australia vs Argentina. The winner of that semi-finals game goes for the gold, while the loser will contest for the bronze. 

Not to look past Spain, but the Australian team is one of a few concerns on the horizon at the moment. The USA team dropped an exhibition match to Australia, 91-83, but that was before they managed to find their flow. But who will lead the squad in this Team USA basketball live stream from the Tokyo Olympics? 

It may well be Durant, whose performance against the Czech Republic made him Team USA's all-time leading Olympic scorer (for the men's side). Jayson Tatum had a huge performance on Saturday, with 27 points (a team high) off of 16 shots. That includes going five for six behind the three-point arc.

And if you want to talk impressive: Team USA hit 20 three-point shots (more than twice the eight that their opponents scored). Oh, and Team USA scored 72 points in 20 minutes, which is good no matter who you're facing (save for the Washington Generals).

Oh, and you're also going to need to pay for Peacock if you want to watch live.

Discovery is currently offering a three-day free trial of the service, with full subscriptions available for £6.99/month or £29.99/year after that. Plus, the service is available to stream through a multitude of devices include Chromecast, Apple TV, Android TV and apps for iOS and Android.

Americans abroad could just use the service of their choice, provided they log in via a VPN such as ExpressVPN.

The Olympics continue to confuse for those following along in Canada.

TSN may be your best bet, as its schedule lists Olympic coverage from Midnight on, on TSN1 or TSN4. Sportsnet's coverage doesn't list Basketball as one of the sports it will cover.

Again, Americans visiting their friends in the great white north could just use Peacock, provided they log in via a VPN such as ExpressVPN.

It's time to serve up another round of beach volleyball at the Tokyo Olympics. The quintessential summer sport takes the stage again tonight, as men's and women's beach volleyball tournaments are in the quarterfinals. And team USA's Alix Klineman and April Ross vying for a medal.

Unfortunately, on the men's side, Jake Gibb and Tri Bourne were bounced by the Germans. Right after their loss, the 45-year-old Gibb announced his retirement.

But Klineman and Ross are still in the hunt. So far, the pair has dropped just one set in four matches at the Tokyo Games. They are Team USA's only chance for a medal in beach volleyball, following Gibb/Bourne's elimination as well as a loss by Kelly Claes and Sarah Sponcil to Canada. 

Ross is seeking her first gold medal, after winning bronze at the 2016 Rio Olympics and silver at the 2012 London Games. Klineman hopes to win her first Olympic medal, period.

Here's everything you need to watch beach volleyball at the Tokyo Olympics, including the schedule of medal events.

How to watch beach volleyball at the Tokyo Olympics from anywhere in the world

The Olympics is a global event and can be viewed in almost every country on Earth. However, if you're not in your home country and can't watch the Tokyo Olympics' beach volleyball with your usual services — or you want to watch in your native language — you're not out of luck.

1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, ExpressVPN is our favorite.

2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance if you're in the U.S. and want to view a U.K. service, you'd select U.K. from the list.

The 2021 Tokyo Olympics swimming events may have been all about Caeleb Dressel, but they're not over just yet. The Artistic Swimming (or Synchronized Swimming) as we used to call it, events are still taking place, and Team USA is still competing for medals in the duets section.

At the moment Team USA's Anita Alvarez and Lindi Schroeder are in 13th place, after gaining a score of 86.5333. Currently, the Russian team of Svetlana Romashina and Svetlana Kolesnichenko have a the lead with 97.9000 points, after performing a spider-themed routine. 

Japan's duo of Yukiko Inui and Megumu Yoshida have a fourth place ranking after scoring 93.9333. Japan has yet to take a gold medal, but they did earn bronze for both Team and Duet at Rio de Janeiro.

But, yes, for those confused here, the Rio Olympics were the last time we referred to synchronized swimming as "artistic swimming. The aim was to make the name of the event greater reflect its artistic nature.

Tumbling is the name of the game in the gymnastics floor final live stream at the Tokyo Olympics. Team USA's Jade Carey is set to execute her routine after qualifying in third place. Simone Biles also qualified for the floor final, but has withdrawn from the event.

Last week, Biles qualified for all four event finals, but subsequently withdrew from the team and all-around finals. Team USA Gymnastics cited mental health in their announcement. 

“We wholeheartedly support Simone’s decision and applaud her bravery in prioritizing her well-being,” the statement said. “Her courage shows, yet again, why she is a role model for so many.”

The top eight gymnasts from the qualifying round move on to finals, though only two athletes per country may compete in the event. Because Biles dropped out, that opens up a spot for Jennifer Gadirova of Great Britain.

The Team USA vs Canada live stream is the last step before the finals for Megan Rapinoe's squad, which made it through against the Netherlands after a penalty shootout. The Canadian side's made it through in a similar fashion, advancing on penalties (4-3) after a scoreless draw with Brazil.

Rapinoe clinched Team USA's shootout win with a shot through the top right corner of the goal that put the Americans up 4-2 in penalty kicks. While two of the Dutch team's kicks went through, USA's goalkeeper Alyssa Naeher saved shots from Vivianne Miedema and Aniek Nouwen.

This led Team USA to attack, and goals from Rose Lavelle, Alex Morgan, Christen Press and (finally) Megan Rapinoe sealed the deal. Speaking of Lavelle and Rapinoe, neither received a yellow card during the game, so they're advancing with the team to the semifinals. 

As for how Canada made it out of its knockout game, goalkeeper Stephanie Labbé made a massively important save on a kick from Brazil's Rafaelle — the final penalty kick. That made Vanessa Gilles' score on Canada's final kick the game winner.

That's a live airing, and no rebroadcast is noted, though NBC's Olympics site does reference 4 p.m. and 7 p.m. live airings for the semifinals games, which could be rebroadcasts? We assume replays will air on Peacock, which has free coverage of most of the Olympics, save for the Men's Basketball games.

The Team USA vs. Italy volleyball live stream will, hopefully, be unlike the USA vs ROC match that took place Friday. It's time for the next big match for the American side, and we bet they're concerned about the health of their biggest star, as they lost her alongside their first defeat in the Tokyo Olympics.

Yes, the 25-20, 25-12, 25-19 loss was far from ideal. But to lose Thompson, the team's leading point-scorer, is possibly even bigger. The superstar apparently rolled her ankle when landing on it hard in the second frame. She was evaluated courtside during the frame, and left thereafter. 

Hopefully, she'll be back in action by the quarterfinals game, which Team USA qualified for in a win over Turkey. Thompson's value to the team cannot be understated, especially after her 34-point game in a win over China.

Team USA has yet to win gold in volleyball at the Olympics, during the entire 57-year history of the event at the Games.

Biles will be replaced by teammate Skinner. The top eight qualifiers move on to finals and Skinner placed fourth. However, only two gymnasts per country are allowed to compete and she scored behind both Biles and Carey. Now, she gets a chance to vie for a medal.

However, if you're not in your home country and can't watch the Gymnastics women's vault and uneven bars finals live stream with your usual services — or you want to watch in your native language — you're not out of luck. 

With a virtual private network, or VPN, you can appear to be surfing the web from your home town (or somewhere that blackouts won't hit), and access the same streaming services you already paid for. They're totally legal, inexpensive and easy to use. 

Not sure which VPN is right for you? We've tested many different services and our pick for the best VPN overall is ExpressVPN. It offers superb speeds and excellent customer service. But you've got other VPN options as well.

Using a VPN is incredibly simple.

1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, ExpressVPN is our favorite.

2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance if you're in the U.S. and want to view a U.K. service, you'd select U.K. from the list.

3. Sit back and enjoy the action. Head to your website or streaming service of choice and tune in.
