Male from table tennis would make sense. But I would dare to disagree. In my opinion female will be Wu Jingyu (taekwondo). Olympic champion 2008,2012 amd after missing Rio due to pregnancy she will fight for her 3rd Olympic title. 

In terms of Olympic spirits, Wu Jingyu is a perfect candidate. But in terms of influence, fame and importance of group ball sports, Zhu Ting is currently the no.1 female athlete in China who helped won Rio Olympic gold medal.

I understand what you mean. Well, generally, both would fit well. Zhu Ting occupies many advertisements here in China, on the other Wu Jingyu - dont know about any. Zhu Ting is more publically known. It's true that she may win this "contest" as the whole nation knows her. Let's see.

I wonder if we are going to have two flag bearers. We already selected Anna Korakaki. We have two other former gold medalists on the team but both are women. We have Petrounias who might qualify but he would be competing the next day. Unless we choose one of Mantis/Kagialis (bronze medalists) or a famous person like Tsitsipas or Antetokounmpo. I hope not though because neither one has ever even been to the Olympics and I don't want one of them to take the spotlight away from Anna.

For :ARG the frontrunners are still Santiago Lange and Cecilia Carranza. But the tennis federation nomimated Del Potro and Nadia Podoroska. Decision to be made by tuesday or wednesday next week. I still can´t believe Del Potro will play in Tokio, so it would be a total surprise if they choose him.

    • Alpine skiing also we have a lot of problems: the men's team is very weak and has been winning a few podiums a season for several years and the our best skier- Dominik Paris is 35. We still have a strong women's team but 3 of the 4 leaders are over 30 (Goggia, Brignone, Curtoni) and Bassino is 28. Another 2 years and we will have the same problem as the men's. There is basically no cross-country skiing without Pellegrino for many years, biathlon is based on 2 individuals with one of them has a 35 years. Vittozzi's injury was enough and we haven`t a single podium this season after 3 stages of the World Cup. As for 1 year to the home games the situation isn`t optimistic.
    • Hail to the Reds... Commanders. First time since 1991 Washington QB has thrown 5 TD passes in a game (which isn't all that improbable in the modern game alas Dan Snyder...)    
    • Italy is much better in alpine skiing, in The end all Nations have a Limited Talent Pool. Norway is far better than Sweden/Finland in Cross-Country skiing, alpine skiing and Biathlon, but Sweden/Finland are far better in ice Hockey.  Great Britain wins far more medals than Germany At Summer olympics, but GB is also inexistant in Winter Sports and Most popular Team Sports (Volleyball, Handball, Basketball, Ich Hockey).  
    • Thanks, great stat! Tannheimer wont turn 20 until August 2025, so she has The whole Season To Join Kristiansen and Neuner. Too Bad that she was ill this week. I think Galmace Paulin and Tänglander could also do it. I think Grotian (born 2004) is The First female Biathlete born after 1999 To make a World Cup Podium. On The Mens side multiple Athletes (Perrot, Giacomel, Uldal) have already done it.   E. Öberg was 22 and a half when she First won.  Dahlmeier was 21 and a half.   Edit: Grotian only narrowly missed The Podium in The Individual at The 2024 World Championships when she was still  19 year old.
