Summer Olympic Games 2020 Medal Count


 Share

Recommended Posts

Interesting fact for us Brazilians: Brazil is only the second nation in the history of the Olympic Games to improve the total number of medals earned after hosting the Olympics. We have 20 medals guaranteed now. And we can even increase the number of gold medals compared to Rio, with up to 9 now, what I believe will not happen, but there's still a chance.

Let's put a wager on Japan having more medals in 2024 ... if the pattern holds

With France hosting the event, it's going to be highly unlikely, but I'd never say never. I just don't see raw talent in swimming, athletics and gymnastics for that, and certainly they won't have the host nation advantage to boost their scores in skateboarding. Also, repeating the same level of success in Judo, especially against France at home, is going to be very, very tough.
