The 2024 Paris Olympics have been completely beautiful thus far. We’re nonetheless within the early levels of the video games, particularly for the USA, however so far the workforce is performing very strongly and successful some medals no one anticipated, like their bronze in Girls’s Rugby, and bronze in Males’s Staff Gymnastics.
Dozens of medals but to be handed out in Observe and Discipline — the place the USA are anticipated to have an enormous video games, however already the workforce has a reasonably commanding lead in at the least one rating system. We make this delineation, as a result of there’s the official Worldwide Olympic Committee medal rely, after which the overall medal rely.
These differ wildly, as a result of the IOC places a premium on golds above every part else. As an illustration, a nation that wins one gold however nothing else will rank larger on the IOC tally than a rustic with no golds, however 5 silvers as an example. In the meantime complete medals simply amasses gold, silver and bronze into one complete rely — whatever the shade of these medals.
Debate rages over which is the correct strategy to rely the medals, however listed below are the top-20 in every rely.
