The basketball player made history at the Summer Olympics. What does this entail?

On Saturday, 27 July, the basketball tournament at the 2024 Olympic Games began. The Spanish national team played against Australia and lost with a score of 80:92.

However, Spain's Rudy Fernandez became the first basketball player in history to play in six Olympics. He first played at the 2004 Olympics in Athens. Since then, he has played at every Olympics with his national team. Fernandes twice became a silver medallist at the Games in 2008 and 2012, and in 2016 he won a bronze medal.

By the way, the first world record was set at this Olympics during the qualification for the women's singles archery tournament. It belongs to an athlete from the Republic of Korea, Lim Si Hyun.

It is worth mentioning that this Olympics not only witnessed the first world record but also its first scandal. During a football tournament match, fans caused a disturbance in the stands.
