It was heartbreak for Women’s Beach Volleyball at the Rio Olympics Tuesday when favorites Kerri Walsh Jennings and April Ross lost to the Brazilian home team. It was Walsh-Jennings first loss of her Olympic career.

Today, again, the biggest viewing crowd is expected for Usain Bolt’s run in a semifinal in the men's 200-meter sprint. The Jamaican took the 100-meter sprint with what looked like ease on Sunday night, allowing him to hold on to the title of “World’s Fastest Man.”

Bolt has said that the 200-meter sprint is his favorite race.

Look for diving, track and field and volleyball in the primetime coverage on NBC tonight.
