Look: Top photos of athletes in action during Paris Olympics Day 4

As the fourth day of Olympics 2024 kicks off in Paris, the International Olympic Committee said that the introduction of new sports and more urban and visually spectacular venues are necessary to attract younger audiences to secure the Olympic Games' survival.
