GBR could've won every last medal in Tokyo and thinking about this summer for years to come would still send shudders down any bloke's spine.

they lost the one that mattered in agonizing fashion.

France big-time back!

It does raise a good point though. System seems broken when one person can win 5 golds after competing for like 10 minutes total and a team of athletes playing for 20 hours gets credited with 1 gold.

I've seen a bunch of these useless ranks. Based on economy, gdp per capita and whatever else. Golds golds golds

I just tried to verify these (from Japan to China, since USA#1 has too many to verify by hand and I got bored before getting to Russia) and none of these checks out.
