Listeners to Nine’s radio stations have surged more than 25% year-on-year as our Aussies took centerstage for the first day of Olympic competition.

Australia now dominates the medal table after a sensational opening day, with Grace Brown, Ariarne Titmus, and the women’s relay team striking gold. Nine Radio’s live streaming audience via apps and web were captivated by every moment of last night’s competition, as our team finished the day with an incredible three golds and two silvers in an historic start to the next two weeks of competition.

Managing Director of Nine Radio, Tom Malone said, “These are terrific first night results for Nine Radio. The team on the ground in Paris seemed to be everywhere, supported by the team back home in the David Morrow Olympics Studio, bringing our listeners all the action – live and immediate. Of course the stars are the Aussie athletes, and what a great first day of competition! Go Australia!”
