Australia has led the medal table since day 3 of the meet and continues to stand at the top on day 7. Cam McEvoy won gold in the men’s 50 free while Kaylee McKeown won the women’s 200 backstroke. McKeown notably defended her title and became the first woman to win both backstroke events in back to back Olympic Games.
The US sits behind Australia with 4 gold medals and 21 total. The US only came away with one medal tonight as Regan Smith won silver in the women’s 200 back. The US will look for a medal haul in the 200 IM tomorrow where Alex Walsh is the top seed and Kate Douglass is the #3 seed. The US men are still in search of individual Olympic gold.
France also has four gold medals, all from Leon Marchand as he won the 200 IM tonight in the 2nd fastest performance all-time touching in a 1:54.06. That was his final individual event of the meet.
Canada sits at 4th on the medal table as Summer McIntosh has won the 400 IM and 200 fly. She has another chance for gold tomorrow in the women’s 200 IM where she is the #2 seed.

The US has to win at least 2 golds tonight if it wants to have a chance of beating Australia. Assuming they win the 800 free and relay today, and the medley relays tomorrow, that will put them up one on Australia. However, IF Kaylee wins the 200 IM today, it will be up to Finke to win the 1500 tomorrow. In the most likely scenario, it all comes down to Bobby Finke.
The US have to win at least 2 gold medals today (Saturday) in the 800 and 4×100 to have a shot at Australia. Assuming they win both medleys and Kaylee doesn’t win the 200 IM. If Kaylee does win the 200 IM, it will be up to Finke to win the 1500.
Oops
Gee isnt australia doing fantastic in the pool all from a nation of only 25 million
Only second to china in total medal count
There are so much factors at play besides population so IDK why people keep bringing that up.
In China a lot of good age group swimmers never have time to develop b/c school becomes the priority.
Congrats to my favorite site for posting the correct medal tables (based on golds). There’s no room for gaslighting info here…
No gaslighting. Its a fact that US has 34 more medals than Australia at the moment.
So happy for Cam The Professor.
That 2013 Barcelona 100 free final was breathtaking.
He lost 2015 Kazan 100 free to a cheater (who was later banned).
Entering Rio with 47.04, and I can only imagine how devastating Rio must have been.
And yet 8 years later he exorcised his demon.
Australia to win IM and 800 Free
Could happen, the Titmus\Ledecky match up will be one of the best races of the meet. Rooting for Ledecky, but Titmus has a faster closing gear and the USA has lost too many close races for medals.
I’d love to see Walsh or Douglass win the IM, but the way we’ve been swimming, we could see a fade to second and fourth.
USA swimming needs to take a deep look into their mirrors and figure out what went wrong.
This has been the worst performance of the men’s team since 1956.
Maybe if men’s swimming were not the forgotten step child of NCAA sports?
Since 1960, the lowest gold medal tally at the Summer Olympics for USA Swimming is 8 gold medals/31 events contested at the Seoul 1988 Olympics. As a footnote, the W 4 x 200 FR-R was not contested until 1996.
