11:00 a.m. — Synchronized Swimming

This is one of the most visually appealing sports in the Olympics, with swimmers moving gracefully in unison. Russia will try to win a fifth consecutive gold medal in the team competition.

2:30 p.m. — Women’s Water Polo: Gold Medal Game

4:30 p.m. — Women’s Soccer: Gold Medal Game
