My favourite sport at the Olympics is gymnastics. It's graceful and powerful at the same time. I love the tension of the complicated routines – especially if they are executed flawlessly. My favourite athlete is Rebecca Andrade, from Brazil.

My favourite event that I watched during the Paris Olympics was beach volleyball. I enjoyed the different techniques that the athletes had to use to get underneath the ball, and just to see how talented some of them were was amazing. I really liked the uniforms that they wore, as they were very stylish.

My favourite sport to watch is sevens rugby at the Olympics. I play rugby, and I think the sport is very interesting and exciting, especially the sevens, which is so much faster and more action-packed than normal rugby.

My favourite item that I watched at the Olympics this year was definitely the men's pole vault. Armand Duplantis, a Swedish-American pole vaulter, was incredible with his ambition and determination to win and break the world record.

My favourite sport at the Olympics, which I always return to watch, would be gymnastics. I enjoy the aesthetic, artful side of sports like gymnastics – the grace and fluidity joining strength and precision in a way that is truly compelling. The runners redefine just how much abuse the human body can take by showcasing athletic feats that will keep you on edge.
