Smith relishing his fourth Olympics

PARIS - South African sprint king Akani Simbine and sensational gymnast Caitlin Rooskrantz will be the flag bearers for Team SA at the Olympics opening ceremony this Friday.

Among the athletes will be John Smith, who will compete in his fourth Olympics.

SA rowing legend Smith will compete in the pair's boat with Christopher Baxter.

This comes 12 years after he won a historic gold medal in London and he's hoping to close out his top-flight career with a bang in Paris.
