Michael Phelps is not content with a record 19th gold medal - he's aiming for more.

Russia's Sofya Velikaya and Ukraine's Olga Kharlan are among those to watch as the women's sabre medal matches are held Monday in Rio de Janiero.
History will also be made as U.S. team member Ibtihaj Muhammad becomes the first American to compete in the Olympics wearing a hijab.

The men's gymnastics team finals are taking place Monday with teams from China, the United States, Russia, Japan, Britain, Brazil, Ukraine and Germany.
While Japan has been a favorite, the team looked shaky in preliminaries. They won the world championships last year in Glasgow and finished second to China in both the 2014 worlds and the 2012 Olympics in London.
The sometimes raucous atmosphere of the preliminaries in Rio de Janeiro was tempered, however, by a sobering reminder of the sport's ever-present danger when French gymnast Samir Ait Said broke his left leg while trying to land a vault.
