00:04Amanda, we've got some more big names in action tonight.
00:06Can Australia actually keep this momentum going?
00:09Well, Jess, Jess Fox certainly hopes so.
00:13She'll be competing in the women's kayak semifinals and then the final.
00:18She's the fastest qualifier after yesterday's heats.
00:21She won bronze in this event in Tokyo, but she's in sublime form at the moment and is
00:26ready to strike for gold.
00:29We also have the women's skateboarding street final.
00:31There'll be three Australians in this one, headlined by 14-year-old Chloe Cavell, who's
00:37the world number six and is an X Games gold medalist.
00:42In the pool tonight, there'll be three finals, the men's 400 IM, the men's 100 breaststroke
00:48and the women's 100 butterfly featuring Emma McKeon.
00:52And in tennis, unfortunately, Alex Dimenor has had to withdraw from the men's singles
00:57due to a hip injury, but he will still play in the doubles alongside Alexei Poprin.
