Reviews: Best UK gambling sites
The Rio Summer Olympics of 2016 begin with the opening ceremony on the 5th of August and conclude on the 21st of August, which gives us a full 16 days to enjoy the spirit of the Olympics. The BBC will naturally be broadcasting all events to UK viewers, and thanks to their expertise we're expecting yet another Games with top-class TV-entertainment.
The most viewed sport of the Olympics will without a doubt be athletics. We've compiled the full schedule for athletics in this article. There is also a lot of top-class football to be expected in Rio this summer, and the full schedule for the Olympic football tournament can be found here.
