Very well played by China to likely win the games this year, tough competition between them and the USA.
I’m just really happy for Aus, massively outdoing their population to achieve so many gold medals!
The US will likely take the Women’s Omnium and basketball. There’s the 76kg freestyle wrestling to go as well. So they’re going No.1
Less golds, but GB with more medals than Tokyo is something!
Tbh didnt think the 36 medals grom Tokyo would be matched, but still 34 :0 it can only go down from here.
Awesome job, athletes!
Why couldn’t another country have 17 gold medals? That would complete the 19 through 11 gold medals order.
In just a couple days GB went from fighting for 4th to 7th on the table. Damn. Those fumbled Gold medals were always going to catch us I guess.
Us at 6th is something i did not expect after the first 4 days without a medal. Crazy performance this year
Hungary 14th, best in the region, by a mile 🇭🇺🥳
So if US and China tie in gold medals are we going to be petty or just accept that both countries had good years?
Look at the athletics medals table lol, *trying to find a way to include Kenya in the conversation* haha love!
Korea doubling their Tokyo Golds, nice.
Netherlands almost 50% of their medals are gold. Thats a wild statistic.
Looks like it’ll be a tie at 40 if womens basketball wins.
Britain is on a concerning trend since London – fewer golds in each Olympic cycle, and a big drop off this time. We need to see changes and a renewed commitment to sport.
USA at 39 already.
All in all we did really good!
Broke our gold medals record (15 in Atlanta), total medals record (43 in Beijing) and finished top 5 for the first time 🍾🥳
[That being said, our Track & Field federation really needs to take a hard look in the mirror, it’s just embarrassing at this point. They likely won’t though.]
Hongkong?
A gold medal Italy has just won in women’s volleyball is missing
Italy 9th after gold in women volleyball
Korea has been lackluster near the end.
So will China get any more gold medals?
There’s only two things I hate in this world. People who are intolerant of other people’s cultures and the Dutch
Though the first but nothing to celebrate………no sarcasm
Appreciate nobody will see this comment, but I think the narrative around total medals sucks. Olympics is about the athletes. Each gold silver and bronze is an amazing story. Reducing it to this statistics is a fun side story but we should take it a little less seriously IMO
These games have been so much fun to watch both on a competitive level and sportsmanship between all the athletes.
oo
Canada is at 11 and has had a record breaking Olympics!
Improvement in medal count from Tokyo but a drop in Gold medals 🤔🤔🤔
Well done China. GB slipped to 7th, 26 medals behind China… and China have 26 more gold than us. Team GB has a conversion problem. Still better then Atlanta ’96 though.
well done by the Netherlands which only has 17.7 million inhabitants.
STOP THE COUNT
Japan really did a great job！
Geez…. Russia didn’t do so well in this Olympics….
Hehe
How come Japan has so many wrestling gold medals?
Almost a 6th of those German medals are from Equestrian. Let that sink in.
only 5 countries have more than 50 medals, and only 18-19 countries have double digit medals. majority of the countries end up with 3-4 medals
Just cut off at 11th is New Zealand with our best ever Olympics. 10 golds with 20 medals total not bad for a nation of 5 million
I’m impressed with the Netherlands! Only 17M people, and 6th place regarding the medals.
Wow wow. Congrats from 🇭🇷 (small countries supporting small countries)
I know these are the rules but a country with only 5 golds and no other medals will end up in top 20, but a country with 20 bronzes and 20 silvers and no golds will probably end up in the last 20. it’s really crazy, sometimes I think what’s the point of giving bronzes and silvers, if your ranking is only going to be decided by golds
Italy, with volleyball gold we passed Germany 😉
Me, a Brit, a week ago: the Americans order the table by total medals instead of golds? Pffft. Ridiculous.
Me today: Perhaps that is the best way.
GG everyone!
I don’t think france can better this performance anytime soon.
I’m torn, I want the US to beat China in the medal table but it would be fun to see France win the Women’s Basketball Gold.
Show the top 11!
No problem, just like Beijing 2008, the US media will simply change the rules and come up with their own table showing America on top.
I hope india gets into top 20 rankings by next olympics. It doesn’t take more than 5 golds to get into top 20. with cricket being added in LA 28, it shouldn’t be too hard
All these countries revelling in their medal PR’s like 70 Russian medals aren’t getting re-allocated
Does anybody know how much China compensates their athletes for winning medals? I see it’s quite lucrative for Hong Kong.
