1 - Artistic Swimming - Russia (Team and Duet)

2 - Table Tennis - China (men's and women's team)

3 - Diving - China in all synchronized events (Men's 10m Platform for sure)

4 - Water Polo - United States Women

5 - Weightlifting  - Men's +109kg -  Lasha Talakhadze

 

Not necessarily the safest gold medallists.

 

Also China in weightlifting, especially women seem safe. Last mention, USA women's all-around team in artistic gymnastics. 

Thanks but please also just pick 5 of them. ;) 

Stopped watching sports, there are better things in life.

1. Weightlifting, men's +109kg - Lasha Talakhadze (GEO)

2. Swimming, 1500m freestyle women - Katie Ledecky (USA)

3. Cycling, women's time trial - Chloe Dygert (USA)

4. Sport climbing, women's combined - Janja Garnbret (SLO)

5. Judo, men's 73kg - Shohei Ono (JPN)

 

Dygert depends a little on how well she's recovered, but since she won the US nationals I'm assuming she's fine and then it's a matter of good luck to anyone in trying to beat her :p 

 

Followed an earlier example to leave out non-individual events, because this sounded more fun :d 

If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated! Full story and how to help can be found here!
