2 can play this game

 

Brady Ellison lost a gold on cm's

Nevin Harrison lost in a photo finish

Biles fell of a beam and stepped out on the floor.  

Lyles lost the 200 gold because of covid

Triathlon mixed relay photo finish loss

 

Not to mention the swimming mixed relay that was a doped medal ( will be eventually returned to usa once congress is done with ioc)

The US Congress is so dysfunctional the politicians of the IOC would run rings around them.

The medals race this year was even closer than the one in Tokyo. Like in three years ago, it was decided on the last day by the gold medals won by Jennifer Valente in cycling and the US women’s basketball team.

Well. Its like US won because it has total medals and not on total gold. 
 

Surely the last time US didnt win on total gold (besides Beijing), has to go back to Soviet era?

 

Historic. The 1st ever draw on Gold.

Fun fact, a small town in Italy, Roncadelle (9.000 inhabitants) won in 15 minutes two golden medal.

Update: yesterday Roncadelle won their 3rd gold (a volleyball player). Obviously, in Italy all newspapers speak about this little (golden) town

121 NOCs (+ AIN and EOR) reaching at least a top 8 placement. 

It's kind of crazy for France to have as many Top 8 as China, but more than two time less gold medals. Or for Spain to have as many Top 8 as SK, but almost three times less golds.

 

The medals table looks nice and everyone gets crazy about it, but it really is just one side of the story.
