If you would have won more medals the divider would be bigger thus more medals per population.
Oh god you're going to make me explain this out.

Because of the limited amount of people a country can send to each event, greater amounts of people (much greater tbh) are represented by a relatively fewer amount of athletes. Why don't you go ahead and work that figure out for China. .

303,500,000 : 810 (all medals won so far except my countries) = 374.691 now compare this to the number above. Theoretically you have all options to win more medals per population than my country.

SLO 405.726th person gets a medal

USA 374.691th person gets a medal

If we sweep every event taking every medal . If the US had a perfect distribution of interest in Olympic events then sure. Obviously there are more heavily favored sports. We might have 60 million kids lining up to run track and a couple thousand who care about sailing. Obviously the 60 million are represented by a disproportionate amount of Olympic athletes.

I know. Obviously having a large group of athletes to pull from is an overwhelmingly significant advantage. Tbh that's the bottom line. Although I still think Phelps is immortal. lol

If the investigation really ended that would mean nothing good for the next Olympic games. Dope yourself>win>get a medal>too late for an investigation.

4x100m. Jamaica are fucking insane. They smashed this record too. Shit, you can talk about China having over 9000 gold medals in sports nobody gives a crap about where judges choose who wins. But Jamaica are the real kings of this tournament, imo

6 golds in Athletics in the high profile events, and they've also broken a fair amount of world records. The Olympics is always about the Athletics. Everyone knows the 100m/200m/400m and the relays are the ones to win. And I said it was my opinion, I hold Athletics to a higher weighting than the other sports.

Sprinting may be "the ones to win", but the people I truly respect are the long distance runners, the cyclists, the swimmers, etc. They do things out of the ordinary.
