LA Olympics to feature women’s 100m final on day one in event shakeup

The LA Olympics will introduce a significant change by featuring the women’s 100m final on the opening day of the Games, scheduled for November 12, 2025. This event will see the finalists competing three times, a departure from the traditional format where they would run only twice. This adjustment highlights a growing recognition of women's athletics and aims to enhance the excitement and visibility of the event right from the start of the Olympics.
