I would say :POL Aleksandra Mirosław in speed in sport climbing, but one small mistake can ruin everything.

I don’t think the format for speed climbing makes any athlete a lock. Any top 10 speed climber could win on the day.
 

Lead/Boulder however, :SLO Janja Garnbret is as safe as you can get for a gold medal.

In tennis, nothing is a given, especially at the Olympics. Lots of upsets occur. 
 

She is the heavy favourite yeah, but I wouldn’t be surprised to see her not win gold (even with her three in a row at Roland Garros, the Olympic venue)

Iga is unbeatable on clay, of course an upset can happen but with the difference of level between her and the other 63 the chances are basically 95/5

I totally forgot Adam Peaty ... thought his best time was still far behind Qin's, but 57.69 vs 57.94 is not the kind of difference I had in my mind.

 

Checking the 200 breaststroke times now. Even on that distance Qin Haiyang is no lock for gold anymore: Matt Fallon :USA has the best time 2.06,54, with Haiyang just in 2.07,03. 

Most of my picks have all been named already, but I'll go anyway. My first thoughts were: :NED womens field hockey, :USA Sydney McLaughlin in 400mH, :SLO Janja Garnbret in boulder/lead climbing.

 

Some new ones: :FRA Leon Marchand 400m IM swimming and the :JPN Abe siblings in judo.

From a :GBR pov, Tom Pidcock in the MTB is probably up there. In that sport with the risk of injury/puncture there is never a guarantee but if he gets around on the bike without incident, I don't see him being beaten.

 

:CHN in diving is usually a lock for most of the events.

 

Summer in the 400IM is about as sure bet as you can get.

    • I`m a traditionalist and I like alpine skiing competitions in the morning hours, illuminated by the sun In ski jumping this is practically non-existentthis in contrast the early 21st century (It's nice that at least there's Planica at the end of every season). There are also traditional competitions under artificial lights, like in Schladming or Madonna di Campiglio. There's no need to do the same thing everywhere as in ski jumping. Alpine skiing finals are rarely super exciting, because usually everything is clear and the skiers are tired from the long season. Finals were often canceled, so this year it was okay for me. If someone wanted a spectacle, that's what the Olympics Games or the World Cup in Kitzbuchel.

    • Baffling scheduling again. It's like FIS want to drive people away.    It's the Finals, on paper your big conclusion to the season, yet it feels like "let's get this over with". Just compare how the ATP treat their finals with this.   Ok, you want to have the GS & SL on Tuesday/Wednesday. That's fine, i've been advocating for more mid-week starts to begin with. But why, oh why do you have them in the middle of the day, on a work week.  Why aren't you having them in the evening, in prime time, when people are off work. Make it a big special event, which people want to visit and not during the day in front of a 100 fans. It's not that hard to choose a place with some floodlights.     And even this week we don't have Champion League football, so the night is free from big competition. Perfect opportunity to have alpine skiing on TV right now, but noooo.
