I think that's medal total. The BBC has China first (now with 5 gold), South Korea second and USA third.

GO USA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Did you just see that?  After France came there to "crush the US" they got stomped!  For the US in men's swimming, Lezak came in there to just close the gap the French had and win it for the US, setting a new world record.

It's not the number of medals, but the number of gold medals that are important. Silver and bronze only count where there are ties. That is why China is on top of the league table.

In Women's Beach Volleyball, Misty May-Treamor and Kerri Walsh had an outstanding match against Belgium.  The first heat was so close.  Just when it looked like Belgium was going to win, May and Walsh came back and won by a single point.  However, in the second heat the US won by (I think) 11 points.  Very well done there.  I want to see them face the Brazillian team.  That will be incredible to watch.

What can I say?  Michael Phelps is a swimming machine.  Not only did he win ANOTHER gold medal, but he did so in yet another world record fashion.

Nastia Liukin just did an incredible job in the individual competition in Women's Gymnastics.  Even after the questionable scoring on her vault (which was PERFECTION) and the uneven bars, she came back to win the gold.  It's great to see how far she's come.  Best of luck to her and her family.


Go USA!

I can't believe how well Britain are doing in these olympics. Third on the table for us is AMAZING. 16 Gold medals. I'm not used to us doing well in sporting events, so these are new feelings for me.
