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. ;)

If you have to decide on 5, which one has to go?

 

:CHN Women's -49kg 

:CHN Women's -55kg

:CHN Women's -87kg

:CHN Women's +87kg

:USA Men's Team 

:USA Women's Team 

:CHN Women's 49kg (because I would be rooting for Mirabai :p

Russia - Women's Duet (Synchronized swimming) 

Russia - Women's Team (Synchronized swimming)  

China - Women's Team (Table Tennis)

China - Men's Team (Table Tennis) 

USA - Women's Team (Basketball) 

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 

.

Women's artistic gymnastics team - USA :USA 

Women's artistic gymnastics all-around - Simone Biles :USA 

Women's artistic gymnastics vault - Simone Biles :USA 

Women's artistic gymnastics floor - Simone Biles :USA 

Rhythmic gymnastics all-around - One of the Averinas :RUS 

Not looking at others, and trying to be international here, so

:AUS    Women's 4x100 FS Relay

:USA    Katie Ledecky  1500 FS

:USA    Women Basketball

:USA    4x400 Relay, both Mixed and Men (I know, this is 6 total)

    • Honestly, I think you guys have a much better chance of success here than we do. It's already difficult to maintain this sport, and with this ridiculous format this year, things have gotten even worse. Years and years participating in the elite and we haven't been able to evolve; it was just a waste.

    • Another weak result for our athletics team, which is typical; without Caio or Alisson, our chances of a medal in any high-level tournament are almost zero.   However, Juliana's result in the women's pole vault was a great 7th place. She is improving rapidly and still has a lot of room for growth.

    • some changes in the team and less importance to the sport, the two big teams until 2022/2023 ( and ) in south america started to decrease a lot and in the other hand the 3rd in South America () is growing a lot, is really impressive. We are currently the favourites for the LA2028 quota
    • Last few weeks of the World Cup season for winter sports (and Junior Worlds, depending on streaming), Men's Curling Worlds, Saquarema Elite 16, and some tennis   That's it unless I'm missing something, not much going on    Which is a good thing honestly, very busy next couple of weeks.
    • What happened to Brazil's women's team? On the other hand it looks like Argentina may be the top South American team on the women's side. Defeating Spain, China and South Africa was unlikely up until this year
    • These are the teams I think will qualify for the WC this window:           Hoping for some debutants to qualify!
    • defeats  7-5 for gold, Schwaller goes from junior world champions to world champions only two years later   win bronze 8-5 over
