1 - Artistic Swimming - Russia (Team and Duet)

2 - Table Tennis - China (men's and women's team)

3 - Diving - China in all synchronized events (Men's 10m Platform for sure)

4 - Water Polo - United States Women

5 - Weightlifting  - Men's +109kg -  Lasha Talakhadze

 

Not necessarily the safest gold medallists.

 

Also China in weightlifting, especially women seem safe. Last mention, USA women's all-around team in artistic gymnastics. 

Thanks but please also just pick 5 of them. ;)

1. Weightlifting, men's +109kg - Lasha Talakhadze (GEO)

2. Swimming, 1500m freestyle women - Katie Ledecky (USA)

3. Cycling, women's time trial - Chloe Dygert (USA)

4. Sport climbing, women's combined - Janja Garnbret (SLO)

5. Judo, men's 73kg - Shohei Ono (JPN)

 

Dygert depends a little on how well she's recovered, but since she won the US nationals I'm assuming she's fine and then it's a matter of good luck to anyone in trying to beat her :p 

 

Followed an earlier example to leave out non-individual events, because this sounded more fun :d
