When to watch wrestling during the 2024 Paris Olympics

One of the Olympics' oldest sports, wrestling has been featured at every edition of the Summer Games except for 1900 -- which also took place in Paris.  

Wrestling returns to the Olympic spotlight this August via 18 competitions in the City of Light. Three years after the United States earned nine total sport medals at the Tokyo Games (the most of any nation), American veterans like Helen Maroulis and Kyle Snyder aim to demonstrate continued dominance, further cement their places in Olympic history, and possibly pass the torch to another generation of grapplers.     

Wrestlers take to the mat from Monday, August 5 to Sunday, August 11 as part of the 2024 Paris Olympics. Athletes will gut wrench for gold, silver and bronze across 18 total competitions, with each of the three categories -- men compete in freestyle and Greco-Roman; women chase Olympic glory in freestyle -- divided into six weight classes.
