What is your favorite sport in the Olympic games?
I'm following women's volleyball more.
 
My favorite sport in the Olympics is surfing, I love the sport and follow it whenever I can.
 
My favorite sport for me is soccer, but after the Euro Cup and the Copa America I don't want to watch soccer anymore for now, I want to watch other sports in the Olympic Games, and I'm watching almost all sports, I always love learning something new .
 
Surfing and soccer should not be in the Olympics. The ancient Greeks must be spinning in their grave with what modern times have done to their "Games" to test strength and speed. Soon there'll be darts and tiddly winks.
 
favourite is athletics esp 100m 200m but I really enjoy a lot of the sports, love the swimming, diving, gymnastics, skateboarding, track cycling
 
The Italian swimmer who won the gold medal. He was seen sleeping in a park. He said that in the Olympic village it's very hot, there's no air conditioning and that the food is bad. I don't understand if they spend billions of dollars. How difficult is it to have air conditioning and adequate food for elite athletes?
 
This guy is a crack!!!

Today Hungary won 2 gold medals (taekwondo, women's 67 kg and marathon swimming, men's 10km). 🙂

What is sad that a man who became a woman could compete in box amongst women (Imane Helif, 66kg). Of course he won gold medal. He broke the nose of one of his opponents. I cant believe this still can happen in sport. International Boxing Association (where he is banned) pays $50000 everybody got defeated by him...

Finally the United States finished in 1st place in the medal table, although China obtained the same number of gold medals, the United States has to thank athletics and swimming since there are many events and many gold medals for them
 
China was really about to beat USA in gold medals.They did miss the best opportunity in Paris.In the next edition in Los Angeles USA will be the winner easily.

wasted? I don't know if I would say that, when the United States had about 250 more athletes than China, in fact China achieved more golds in different sports than anyone else, it is an achievement to finish with the same number of gold medals, when the sports that award the most medals are athletics and swimming, the strong sports of the United States

I'm not going to go through the full field, but

Country______Population_____Gold Medals__Population per Gold
USA_________333.3 million_______40___________8,332,500
China_______1.419 billion_______40__________35,475,000
.
New Zealand_____5,338,900_______10_____________533,890

Needless to say, I'm pretty damn proud of our competitors.

But as impressive as New Zealand's figures are, they were not the best.
Saint Lucia with a population of 184,100 won one gold.
And the top spot went to Dominica. Population 67,408 and one gold.
