China - Leading for the Moment
It will be good to see the top 10 countries medal count for the moment. China is still in front of USA, Russia, Japan and other top 10 countries. We can see that in the year 2008, China won the medal tally for most gold as the Games was held there in that country, which tantamounts to having a home ground advantage. If China wins in London, then it will be another achievement as the current Games is not held at home but in London.
| Rank | Country | Gold | Silver | Bronze | Total |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 17 | 9 | 4 | 30 | |
| 2 | 14 | 8 | 9 | 31 | |
| 3 | 7 | 2 | 4 | 13 | |
