His part of the relay -- the penultimate leg before Friday night's opening ceremony -- went off without a hitch. The same can't be said for France's railway network Friday morning, which has been hit with major disruption ahead of the opening ceremony.

Vandals targeted France's high-speed TGV network with a series of coordinated actions.

The state-owned railway operator said arsonists had targeted installations along the lines connecting Paris with cities such as Lille in the north, Bordeaux in the west and Strasbourg in the east.
