Well, it's a long list of athletes I'd like to do well. If I'd have to choose a top 5, on the top of my head:

 

🇪🇸 Carolina Marin winning another gold medal in badminton.

 

🇸🇮 Tadej Pogacar winning the road race.

 

🇺🇲 Katie Ledecky doing a 4 peat in the 800 and tying Latynina's gold medal record.

 

🇨🇺 Mijain Lopez winning another gold medal to challenge Milo of Croton 🤓

 

🇵🇱 Iga Swiatek and Novak Djokovic gold in tennis singles and 🇪🇸 Nadal-Alcaraz in doubles.

 

In athletics, cheering for Eliza McCartney, Femke Bol, Shelly-Ann Fraser, Eva Swoboda, Andre de Grasse, Yaroslava Mahuchikh, Nicola Olyslagers, Sam Kendricks... To name a few.

 

In other sports, athletes like Lisa Carrington, Daria Bilodid, Sarah Sjostrom, Simona Quadarella, Kristof Milak, Kate Douglass and many others that I don't remember now 😋

 

And of course the latin american athletes and mostly the south american ones.

I love Greece since childhood when my grandma used to read to me stories about the Olympian gods, so I'll always cheer for :GRE athletes

If the lights light up exactly at the correct moment, he was definitely first, since his light went on first. Not sure if those lights are 100% accurate though?

Ah yeah, :USA Grant Holloway! He'd very much deserve the gold based on performances of course, but also he always comes across super friendly and 'sportsmanlike', plus he isn't one of those big stars who feels the need to avoid almost any competition, so we often get to see him in action.

 

I'd find a medal for :BOT Letsile Tebogo really cool as well, especially so short after he lost his mother. Less unique, but still nice would be :BAH Steven Gardiner, because his running style is just....well, absolute perfection.
