How Many Medals do You Expect from Your Nation at the Summer Olympic Games 2020? (2018 version)


Recommended Posts

My predictions:

 

Archery: 0-1 medals

Athletics: 4-6

Boxing: 0-2

Canoeing: 6-9

Cycling Road: 0-1

Cycling Track: 1-4

Diving: 0-1

Equestrian: 4-6

Fencing: 0-1

Field Hockey: 0-2

Football: 0-2

Gymnastics: 0-2

Handball: 0-1

Judo: 2-4

Modern Pentathlon: 0-2

Rowing: 1-4

Sailing: 0-2

Shooting: 2-5

Sportclimbing: 0-1

Swimming (including Open Water): 0-3

Table Tennis: 0-2

Taekwondo: 0-1

Tennis: 0-2

Triathlon: 0-1

Volleyball (including Beach): 0-1

Wrestling: 0-3

Rest: 0

 

Overall: 19 - 66

 

19+66 = 85

 

85/2 = 42,5

 

So my prediction is 42 to 43 medals for Germany.

 

My early  prediction for Italy:

 

Archery 1 medal (men team as the best chance but possible also mixed team and Nespoli in individual) 

Athletics 1 medal (Palmisano in race walking and Tamberi  in high jump could have a chance) 

Canoeing 1 medal (i think among both k1 slalom, k 1 200 man, c2 1000 man 1 medal should be possible) 

Cycling road 1 medal (Nibali, Longo Borghini, Guderzo, and also Moscon in time trial are the best chances) 

Cycling track 2 medals (men pursuit, men and women omnium and men Madison as the best chances) 

Cycling MTB 1 medal (men race) 

Fencing 5 medals ( 3 or 4 medals from foil, 1 from men team sarbre and 1 from epee) 

Gymnastics artistic 1 medal (I think something good from the young girls) 

Rhytmics 1 medal  from team

Judo 1 medal (Basile, Lombardo, Giuffrida, men 81 kg, Gwend are possible medal contenders) 

Modern pentathlon 1 medal (more an hope than a real chance but especially girls are very talented) 

Karate 2 medals (women kata, Cardin, Busà and Crescenzo are medal contenders) 

Rowing  3 medals (four, quadruple, pair and lightweight double are medal contenders, then there is the dream of a medal from the 8, of course all men boats) 

Sailing 1 medal (Nacra for sure then both Rsx and men 470 could have a chance) 

Shooting 3 medals (Skeet, trap and mixed trap for sure, then there is Zublasing) 

Swimming 4 medals (pool and open water:Detti in 400 and 800, Paltrinieri in 800, 1500 and open water, Quadarella in 1500, Miressi in 100, 4x100 men freestyle, Cusinato in 400 medley, Bridi and Bruni in open water, I think this will be the best national team Italy ever had, many very good swimmers for final but I fear not for medals) 

Volleyball 1 medal (counting also beach volley: women team and Nicai Lupo in beach are medal contenders) 

Waterpolo 1 medal (probably men more likely than women) 

Wrestling 1 medal (Chamizo)

I think it's not impossible to win more than 6 medals in athletics, more than 4 medals in track cycling, more than 6 medals in equestrian, more than 3 medals in swimming and more than 2 medals in tennis. Winning the same number of medals as in 2016 might not seem bad, but will all the new events being equally successful as in 2016 would probably mean to win 46-48 medals.

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

Athletics:

 

(good chance)

Andrius Gudžius

Airinė Palšytė

 

(has a chance)

Agnė Šerkšnienė

Liveta Jasiūnaitė

 

Basketball & Canoeing Sprint have a chance for a medal as well, I guess

 

Cycling Track perhaps Krupeckaitė could break the curse, but I doubt it

 

Modern Pentathlon: Laura Asadauskaitė, Gintarė Venčkauskaitė, Justinas Kinderis all with a chance for a medal

 

Rowing: We can win 4 medals, we can win 0 medals as well, depends on a lot of factors

 

Swimming: Danas Rapšys, Rūta Meilutytė with a solid chance, Giedrius Titenis, Andrius Šidlauskas, Simonas Bilis with a chance

 

Fighting sports: We usually score a medal during Olympics in one of the following: judo, boxing or wrestling

 

All in all, I'd expect 1 medal from athletics, 1 from pentathlon, 2 from rowing, 2 from swimming, so probably 6 medals.

If I'd go the optimistic route, we could go for 10.

    • There will be specialized double sculls...just not for an NOC if it is entering singles specialists.   Either enter 2 singles specialists, or 1 XD specialist pair.   But they can in theory compete in both events, I guess, if they qualify...our top M, I think, does both.   But there are 17M, 17W, and 30 Pairs allotted in the quota, so I don't think the intent is that every singles entry will be in doubles.   (Perhaps this gets to fall in line with Weightlifting, where due to max entry quota, an NOC can't enter in every event, even if they have the best athletes...here, unless you have a pair who qualifies in both.)
