Hundreds of photographers have gathered in Rio to follow the action in the Olympic arenas, swimming pools, racetracks, and more. Over the two weeks of the games, I’ll be featuring some amazing images from recent Olympic events. Today’s entry encompasses rowing, marathon swimming, sailing, weightlifting, steeple-chase, tennis, synchronized swimming, handball, wrestling, a marriage proposal, and much more.
