If you watch rhythmic gymnastics at the Tokyo Olympics, you will see a spectacular routine tonight that combines artistry and skill. Rhythmic gymnastics is one of three gymnastics events (the other two being artistic and trampoline). Female gymnasts perform acrobatic routines using hand-held apparatus such as hoops, balls, clubs, and ribbons.

For the first time ever, the U.S. team will have a full representative of rhythmic gymnastics at the Olympics. This includes Laura Zenn and Evita Griskenas, both of whom placed in the top 10 in the overall final of the 2019 World Rhythmic Gymnastics Championships.

In the team competition, Isabella Connor, Camilla Feeley, Yelizaveta Melenzon, Lili Mizuno, Elizaveta Pletneva, and Nicole Sladkov represent Team USA.

Here's everything you need to know about watching rhythmic gymnastics at the Tokyo Olympics, including a schedule of medal events.

The Olympics are a global event and can be seen in almost every country on earth. However, if you are not in your home country and cannot watch the Tokyo Olympics cycling track events on your regular service, or if you prefer to watch in your native language, you are not out of luck.

A virtual private network, or VPN, allows you to access the same streaming services you are already paying for by pretending you are surfing the web from your hometown (or anywhere else not hit by power outages.) VPNs are completely legal, inexpensive, and easy to use.

Not sure which VPN is right for you? After testing a variety of services, the best VPN overall is ExpressVPN. It offers great speed and excellent customer service. However, there are other VPN options out there.

The VPN is incredibly easy to use.

1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we have mentioned, ExpressVPN is our favorite.

2. select the location you want to connect to with the VPN app. For example, if you are in the US and want to see UK services, select UK from the list.

3. Sit back and enjoy the action. Go to your preferred website or streaming service and tune in.

To watch Tokyo Olympics rhythmic gymnastics live, you will need a cable package, so sign in to NBCOlympics.com and watch reruns on NBCSN.

Peacock may include live streaming of rhythmic gymnastics. Primetime highlights of rhythmic gymnastics at the Tokyo Olympics may also be shown on NBC.

NBCSN is part of the $35/month Sling TV Blue package, as are NBC, USA, and CNBC. The Olympic Channel is also available as an $11/month add-on.

Sling is one of the best streaming services alongside our other recommendation for Olympic viewing: Fubo TV has over 100 channels (more than Sling), including all the networks mentioned above.

To watch all the Rhythmic Gymnastics competitions live in the UK, we recommend subscribing to Discovery Plus, which provides complete coverage of Tokyo 2020.

The competitions will take place in the mornings of BST. The full schedule is as follows.

Discovery is currently offering a 3-day free trial, after which a full subscription is available for £6.99 per month or £29.99 per year. Additionally, the service can be streamed on a number of devices, including Chromecast, Apple TV, Android TV, and apps for iOS and Android.

BBC iPlayer used to be the primary source for all Olympic coverage for people in the UK, but things have changed.

The BBC no longer has a monopoly on Olympic coverage in the UK, as the IOC has sold its major European broadcasting rights to the Discovery Network. As a result, the BBC's coverage, while still good, is limited to no more than two live broadcasts at a time.

Americans abroad can use any service they like by logging in via a VPN such as ExpressVPN.

Sportsnet, CBC, and TSN share Olympic coverage, so Canadians can watch live and tape-delayed coverage of rhythmic gymnastics on these channels.

Again, Americans can use services such as Peacock, Sling, and Fubo by logging in via a VPN such as ExpressVPN.

Down Under, Aussies can watch Tokyo Olympic rhythmic gymnastics for free on the 7Plus network streaming service.
