Probably on ES player or on some other pay per view platform. :)

Well, at least it's available, even if you have to pay for one month's worth of Eurosport (which isn't too expensive)

As now we come across the world
To share these Games of old
Let all the flags of every land
In brotherhood unfold

You can take 2 weeks trials for free. I used it for Ryo games for BBC and it worked. Just now, BBC is not the holder, so I'll have to find another country. Probably US and NBC

Yeah, but less coverage than in 2016. They won't have a feed from every sport like back then, those are now on ESP player.

To be fair, if you want good quality, you should at some point be willing to pay a little (if possible, of course) :p 

 

Free is basically never as good as paid, even a cheap subscription can be fine for a month. You don't happen to have something like Norton antivirus? That has a VPN as well.

Eurosport Player is absolutely worth it anyway, especially for the overall sports fan. I was a little skeptical at first, three years ago or so, but nowadays I wouldn't be able to watch what I watch without it :d 

 

I think here I pay 40 euro per year or so, but I'd pay double if it was necessary since I make use of it quite literally several hours per day..

It is a huge bargain compared to all other internet subscription sports deals out there. Almost all of them you are paying double or triple for just a single sport.

    • River Flow in the Fitzroy River, Rockhampton: Olympics/Paralympics Rowing/Canoe Venue With some concerned with river flow unfairly affecting some rowers/canoe paddlers more than others in both types of races, Rockhampton Regional Council said the months of July and August, when the Olympic/Paralympic competitions will be held traditionally saw the least need for the Fitzroy Barrage to open in response to river flows. Queensland Senator Matt Canavan also says: “Rowing authorities, who wanted the rowing held elsewhere, have raised the issue of the streamflow of the Fitzroy river, but this question has locals scratching their heads as much as the crocodile hype has.” “The Olympic Games are due to be held in winter, and Rockhampton gets barely any rain then.” “A recent hydrological study of the Fitzroy concluded that the river falls to almost zero flow in the winter months.” “World rowing rules state that courses should have no significant current, which is generally interpreted as a streamflow velocity of 0.1m per second or less to ensure fairness across lanes.” “Data from the Fitzroy River shows that in July and August (when the Games will occur) flow rates are below this threshold 99.9 per cent of the time.” “Indeed, the average flow rate at this time of year is half the recommended threshold. And this data is from a gauge upstream of a weir. The flow rates at the rowing course will be even lower than this.” “World rowing authorities have also been flexible on these rules for the Los Angeles games in 2028.” “The rowing in LA will occur at the Marine Stadium at Long Beach.” “This rowing course is connected to the ocean and affected by tides.” “Flow rates in the waters surrounding the course (in LA) have been measured at up to 0.2m per second, double the recommended threshold.” “Marine Stadium at Long Beach has been approved despite this.” “And the rowing course in LA will be the shortest in Olympic history at just 1500m, rather than the standard 2000m.” “Unlike LA, the Fitzroy River is not impacted by tides because barrages control flows from the ocean.” “And, unlike LA, neither the streamflow rules nor the length of the course will need to be compromised to hold Olympic rowing at Rockhampton.” * * * * * * So both World Rowing and the International Canoe Federation (ICF) will need to do their inspections and technical assessments during July/August which is when the Olympic/Paralympic competitions will be held.
    • No Crocodile Concerns - Olympic Rowing Course, Fitzroy River - Rockhampton   From ABC News Australia:   Crocodile farm owner John Lever, who has been working with the animals for more than 40 years, said the population in the river should not be a concern and could be managed. "I think we have to look at it sensibly. It's a great opportunity ... it's a fabulous river," Mr Lever said.   "Crocodiles are most active at night and there won't be night-time activities. Crocs are actively feeding at the water's edge and the rowing will be held over deep water."   Mr Lever is a long-time advocate of the government re-categorising the stretch of the river where rowing is held as an active removal zone to have crocodiles surveyed, trapped and removed.   He said crocodiles were less active in winter when the Olympics were expected to be held (in July/August winter time).   "You're more likely to get hit by a bus on the way to the boat ramp than you are to be taken by a croc," he said.   "In the winter time when the water temperatures go right down, the crocodiles become lethargic and don't eat much because they can't digest food.”
