Men's street skateboarding competition at Paris Olympics postponed to Monday

The men’s street skateboarding competition at the Paris Olympics was postponed on Saturday, organizers said in a statement, as rain poured down on the outdoor urban park venue. The day’s competition has been rescheduled to July 29.
A media center representative said the skaters were unable to compete because the surface of the street course was too slick due to persistent rain early on Saturday, making conditions unsafe.
La Concorde, a sprawling outdoor venue where thousands are expected for the breaking, skateboarding, BMX freestyle and 3×3 basketball events, sat quiet on Saturday with empty stands. Workers walked through the waterlogged grounds as the street course sat slick with water.
The women’s street prelims and final remain scheduled for their original times, Sunday at 6 a.m. (NBCOlympics.com, Peacock) and 11 a.m. ET (NBCOlympics.com, Peacock), respectively.
