US is falling off, Japan is ahead of them in total count right now.

You have to remember Japan invested heavily for the olympics in tokyo, and those athletes are still young so its still carrying over.

US will kill it at the next olympics when they pump more money into their athletes. They have ten more medals now than they did after day 4 in japan last olympics And the same amount of golds.


Tokyo after day 4

Nation	Total Medals	Gold	Silver	Bronze
USA	16	4	5	7

France after day 4

Nation	Total Medals	Gold	Silver	Bronze
USA	26	4	11	11
