French beach volleyball competitors Lézana Placette and Alexia Richard, and Italian beach volleyball player Adrian Carambula have all been amazed.

"Whenever I get a bit nervous, I’ll just turn my head and look at the Eiffel Tower. That should help remind me what I play for," Placette said.

"I got goosebumps stepping into the court and imagining the French fans cheering," Richard said.

"We’ve got the best seat in the house. I don’t know who made the call for setting us here, but I really appreciate it."
