Top 2024 Paris Olympics picks for July 27
Tierney is going with favored Australia (-550) in the women’s 400-meter freestyle relay, noting the club is basically in a class of its own. The Olympics analyst notes that this already formidable club became even stronger with the return of a couple members who recently missed time for various reasons.
“This group might be the best of any, with three returnees from the champs in 2021,” Tierney told SportsLine. “This notably includes Mollie O’Callaghan, who is peerless in the 100-meter freestyle. What’s more, Shayna Jack, stellar in the 100, is back after sitting out Tokyo while under suspension. This all-star quartet is a cut or two above the rest.” See the rest of his picks here.
