Olympics 2024 | 1 Everyone Watches Women's Sports

2024 was a banner year for women in the Olympic Games. This week, Sovereign and Ela explore the historic equal gender representation at the 2024 Summer Olympics and the fiery debates over women's uniforms—from France's hijab ban to barely-there track gear. We also spill the tea on the high-stakes drama in gymnastics centered on Simone Biles and Jordan Chiles, and cheer on the fierce women who dominated the global stage.
