What medal in Tokyo for someone NOT from your country would be the most fun for you?

I have a few:

women's water polo (I'm sure everyone on this website secretly wants them to break the 4th place curse)

Simona Halep - tennis (I love to watch her play and I know it is so important for her)

Zorana Arunovic - shooting (For the amazing career she's had, it is crazy that she never won any Olympic medal)

Novak Djokovic - tennis (It is crazy that in his career so far he only won one bronze. Of course I want Tsitsipas to win gold but I'd also like to see Djokovic win silver or bronze )

Darya Klishina - long jump (I always wanted her to win an Olympic medal)

Mariya Lasitskene - high jump (She deserves an Olympic medal in her career)

Kendra Harrison - 100 hurdles (I thought she was so unlucky in 2016 that she missed the Olympics despite breaking the world record a few weeks prior)

Helen Maroulis - wrestling (Of course she is half Greek, and she was going to compete for us after not being selected for London but there were some delays in her paperwork, anyways she won gold for USA in 2016 and they named the main square after her of the town in Greece where her grandparents live)

Alex Kesidis - wrestling (He is also Greek and actually his brother competes for Greece and was in the qualifying tournaments but didn't make it to Tokyo)

Orlando Ortega - 110 hurdles (His coach is Greek)

women's basketball (Their coach is Greek. She was born in Canada but her parents are Greek and she used to play professionally in Greece so she is quite well known in Greek basketball)
