NBC Olympics TV and streaming schedule for Sunday, August 11

North Philly’s Kahleah Copper and the U.S. women’s basketball team will bring down the curtain on what has been a spectacular Olympics on Sunday, as they go for the Americans’ eighth straight women’s hoops gold.

The U.S. plays host France at 9:30 a.m. Philadelphia time, live on NBC, Telemundo (in Spanish), and streaming on Peacock. Breanna Stewart, A’ja Wilson, and company are definitely favored, but WNBA veterans Gabby Williams and Marine Johannès led upsets of Germany and Belgium en route to the final.

There are 11 gold medals left to claim Sunday, and three will have the U.S. in the spotlight: women’s basketball, women’s volleyball, and women’s wrestling.

The volleyball team faces Italy at 7 a.m., in what will be NBC’s first broadcast of the day. The wrestling hopes are with Kennedy Blades, a Chicago native who duels with Japan’s Yuka Kagami in the 76-kilogram (167-pound) final. It will be live on Peacock. The wrestling schedule starts at 5 a.m. and that’s the last bout, so while it’s not clear what time it will happen, it will probably be early in the morning.

This all doesn’t just matter for its own sake, which obviously is plenty. It matters for a specific thing about the medal standings. While the U.S. media likes to rank countries by total medals won, the rest of the world ranks by gold medals won first — and likes to mock the U.S. about it.

At the end of Saturday’s events, China had 39 golds to the United States’ 38. The U.S. has won the gold count at the last three Olympics, and this one could come down to the wire.

China’s Li Wenwen has a good shot at gold in the women’s weightlifting 81-kilogram (178-pound) class, the two-time world champion and reigning Olympic champion at that level. Since the women’s basketball game is the last event, that could be what decides the standings.

The Closing Ceremony will cap it all off, starting at 3 p.m. It will take place at the Stade de France, the national stadium that’s been home to rugby and track and field this summer. NBC will show it live. Mike Tirico will host with Jimmy Fallon, Terry Gannon, Tara Lipinski, and Coatesville native Johnny Weir.

Swimming star Katie Ledecky and Chester County-born rower Nick Mead, who helped the U.S. win its first men’s four-man gold since 1960, will be the American flag-bearers. Snoop Dogg, who’s been everywhere with NBC this summer, will be part of the handover ceremony that sets the stage for Los Angeles in 2028.
