China takes a 1 gold lead over the United States going into the final day. 13 events remaining specifically:

 

Athletics - Women's Marathon

Basketball - Women's Tournament

Cycling - Men's Keirin

Cycling - Women's Individual Sprint

Cycling - Women's Omnium

Handball - Men's Tournament

Modern Pentathlon - Women's Individual

Volleyball - Women's Tournament

Water Polo - Men's Tournament

Weightlifting - Women's +81kg

Wrestling - Men's Freestyle -65kg

Wrestling - Men's Freestyle -97kg

Wrestling - Women's Freestyle -76kg

 

Of these events, here are the ones with either China or the United States still active

 

China

Athletics - Women's Marathon

Cycling - Women's Omnium

Modern Pentathlon - Women's Individual

Weightlifting - Women's +81kg

 

United States

Athletics - Women's Marathon

Basketball - Women's Tournament

Cycling - Women's Omnium

Volleyball - Women's Tournament

Weightlifting - Women's +81kg

Wrestling - Women's Freestyle -76kg

 

 

China is heavily favoured to win the women's +81kg weightlifting, after that their gold medal chances become quite non-existent. Honestly, out of the three remaining events for them they have the best chance in women's marathon and that's pretty much near 0%.

 

Will the United States find at least two more golds to win? The women's basketball will be their best chance for gold which counters the weightlifting medal China will win tomorrow. After that they have a trio of events; women's omnium, women's volleyball, and women's freestyle -76kg to win gold. Statistically, they should win at least one gold from the three, but there is a big enough chance that they could miss in all three.

Imagine scenario: USA wins only women's basketball gold but Chinese wheightlifter bombs at the clean and jerk...

I mean, she can lift at 90% of her capacity and still easily win gold.

 

Another scenario: The Chinese rider intentionally crashes into the United States during the points race of the omnium to prevent her from winning gold.

 

Or maybe the United States wins one of those golds, but somehow chokes the basketball game. :p

I want CHN to win but my most realistic scenario is both ends on same gold (Imagine this). It has never happened in Olympic Games.

 

China has never reached 40’Gold. This will be the 1st time ever (outside Beijing games).  And also a draw with Powerhouse US in Gold in Neutral soil. No country has ever done that since USSR? I cant remember since when. 
 

I take it as a sign of progress. There is nothing can be done if US gets 60 gold+ in LA. My expectations is to take care of what you can do and get 40+ Gold for CHN in LA. Again starting with 3 gold Boxing handicap.

 

By the way , the Omnium is very open race. 3 riders with 3+ odds (1 of those riders is US so it will be between those 3) and the rest at 11+ odds. Its a very tough race to call. There is not even favourite , let alone clear ones. However; that US wrestler looks really strong. I think she has good chance to get gold.

I think Breaking is going to be a hard sell to return.  It was fun but  it was not explained well.  The one on one idea is hard to accept and respect as there is no actual physical competition.  it really is like judging routines and highest wins except because the sport is so new no one knows that the valueis of the moves.  The way the sport was presented including the names and announcers it seemed more like  WWE wrestling than an olympic sport.  Breaking is like some of the X games aimed at the young but it is not translating well to a sport and olympics.

If the IOC ever decides to fully add DanceSport to the Olympics I can see breaking returning as one of the styles.

But why should IOC add Dance? It is an art form and not a sport. Calling it DanceSport doesn't make it a sport. Honestly, I would stop watching the Olympics if they ever add DanceSport as a whole sport with multiple events.

Right now, at the end of Day 15, we have the following gold medals for the USA, China, and France:

:CHN 39 gold medals (+1 compared to the same period at the 2020 Games)

:USA 38 gold medals (+2 compared to the same period at the 2020 Games)

:FRA 16 gold medals (+7 compared to the same period at the 2020 Games)

 

Everything will be decided on the last day.

 

You appear to have omitted Australia and Japan both of which have won more gold medals than France. 😀

  • Latest Posts around Totallympics

    • That would be fantastic. Mostly I just don't need the sidebar because it makes the experience less good by being distracting and in the way, but the main issue (for me, that is) is seeing content of all kinds of threads.   I'm very glad this wasn't around during the Olympics yet, I would genuinely not have been able to enjoy Totallympics at all then. That was sometimes already somewhat difficult with the never-ending insistence of people to spoil results in threads of other sports, but the current sidebar would have made it very hard (and that would be a shame, because I definitely love and always will love Totallympics ).   Anyhow, we'll see how this develops. And about the clubs: yes, you see the latest posts in the sidebar, but I don't want to see posts in the sidebar at all (and in the case of , the club isn't that active, so for weeks I've basically seen the same 2-3 year old posts). Seeing a changing poll or newly registered users or something, while not ideal to have it in a non-customisable sidebar, is at least less distracting than actual content so less of a problem.   Again, all just my opinion, I can totally imagine other people - probably even a majority - have no issues whatsoever.    
    • Yes, the whole forum is now wider so the "posts" section is almost as wide as before.   The sidebar can be customised anyway so my plan is to add more things in the future, like olympic qualification trackers and other things. I can try to ask for a customised plugin where users can choose what they see in the sidebar, but I am not sure it will be possible.   If you are in a club or not makes no difference on the presence of the sidebar, right? You should just see your club's latest post if you have joined a club, but if you are no part of any club you should still see the sidebar, with the other blocks (like a poll, the latest registered users etc.)
    • So you see the sidebar also from tablet/mobile?
    • Hardly, it was out before the Tokyo Games happened...
    • And watching Artistic Swimming or Ice Dancing you can get impressed with the choreo and the artistic elements... Im just still trying to understand Kata. All seemed the same, all doing the same... why someone won? Cause they shouted more? It was veeeery weird   Not that Kumite was any better. I failed to understand that too.     Karate had it chance and it fumbled the bag pretty hard. Almost as hard as Breaking.
    • Cool to be invited a few days before because Sweden etc declines and then use the opportunity to win everything!
    • We also have artistic swimming and figure skating. Dancing will be a part of the Olympics, even if DanceSport never returns.
    • No, we don't. I know this is even going to keep me away from the forum in the winter, when the winter sports are going on (which I know isn't important, but I find sad for myself ), because it's just unavoidable to see comments and replies in other threads. Might almost as well make it one massive chat room instead of having separate threads...   Anyhow, something changed since last night it seems, the open thread is now at least wider (on desktop/laptop) and the sidebar takes relatively a bit less space, so that's....somewhat better, I guess? It should be a setting though, since I can definitely imagine some people find it useful or even nice, while others don't.   I'm having this sidebar since joining the NED club right before the Olympics, and have found the presence of that bar highly irritating ever since (in such a way that, now that I realize it, I'll leave the club now that the Olympics are done for the sole purpose of having less of the sidebar)   
    • Thinking breakdancing 'changes the essence of the Olympics' is somewhat exaggerated, to be fair. Especially when you consider we already have an Olympic dancing competition that's widely accepted as being part of it (unfortunately), and is called dressage.
    • Singapore is 2 races out from qualifying their first ever skier.
