It turns out that New Zealanders are fairweather fans after all.
A day after cheering on Lewis Clareburt in his Olympic swimming final, Kiwis have another rising star of the pool to support today, with 17-year-old Erika Fairweather to participate in the women's 400 metre freestyle final after a stunning performance last night.
Here's all you need to know about today's action (Monday, 26 July).
Erika Fairweather last night swam the race of her young life in the 400m freestyle heats in Tokyo, qualifying with the fourth-fastest time for this afternoon's Olympic final.
Fairweather set a new national record with a rapid effort from lane eight at the Olympic Aquatics Centre, stopping the clock at 4:02.28 to best the previous mark set by Lauren Boyle at London 2012 by more than a second.
In today's final the Dunedin high school student will face off with five-time Olympic champion Katie Ledecky, seeking to become New Zealand's first swimming medallist since 1996.
Fairweather now faces a busy day. After the final - set to begin at 2.20pm - she will be back in the pool for the 200m freestyle heats at 10.05pm.
Other Kiwis with a chance of claiming a medal today include triathletes Hayden Wilde and Tayler Reid, with Wilde an outside hope of a medal, ranked 10th in the world.
Mountain biker Anton Cooper will be looking to cause an upset in his medal race, with the $67-1 outsider hoping to upset all-around superstars Mathieu van der Poel and Tom Pidcock in the cross country mountain bike event. Given what happened in yesterday's women's road race, where a $500-1 amateur won, anything is possible…
Other notable Kiwis to watch include surfers Ella Williams and Billy Stairmand, who have tough round of 16 contests today – weather permitting – after doing well to progress through the heats yesterday.
Meanwhile, the All Blacks sevens will be hoping they can erase the bad memories of Rio 2016 when they begin their campaign this afternoon with winnable group games against Korea and Argentina.
