The highly competitive women's gymnastics team final has arrived at the Olympics, and it's shaping up to be an impressive showdown between the top teams. If you're hoping to tune in today, you've come to the right place. Below, we've outlined where to watch the women's gymnastics final, including free options worldwide.
The women's gymnastics team final picks up just a day after the exciting men's final, wherein the United States' men's team was able to win a medal (bronze) for the first time since 2008. Today's competition will see the top eight qualifying women's teams participate: USA, Great Britain, China, Japan, Brazil, Canada, Italy, and Romania. Scoring looks at performance on vault, balance beam, uneven bars, and floor exercise.
The USA women's team is vying for gold, which they last won for a third time in 2016. At the Tokyo Olympics, the USA won silver, and GBR won bronze, with the ROC (who aren't competing this year) taking home gold. Simone Biles, Suni Lee, Jordan Chiles, and Jade Carey will represent Team USA today.

Where to watch women's gymnastics team final in the US
The women's gymnastics team final will be available to watch on Tuesday, July 30, starting at 12:15 p.m. ET through a couple of different avenues in the United States. Peacock will be the cheapest option, at $7.99 a month, and also the best way to see absolutely every part of the Olympics in the US.
The final will also air on NBC. If you don't have cable or an antenna, you can stream the channel through a live TV package like Sling TV or Fubo. Both of these options also carry USA, another NBCUniversal channel with additional Olympic coverage.
Sling is by far one of the more affordable live TV services, with around 40 live channels and select local channel coverage as part of its Sling Blue plan (so you should look up your zip code before subscribing to ensure that NBC is available in your region). Subscriptions start at $40 a month, but first-time customers can get their first month for just $20.
At $79.99 a month, Fubo is a more expensive option, but it comes with over 180 live channels, including widespread NBC coverage. New customers can currently get a one-week free trial.
