The Paris Olympics are in full swing with nearly 7,000 athletes from 206 delegations vying for bronze, silver and of course, gold.
As of Thursday evening, Team USA has won 37 medals. Other teams to reach double-digits in medals are France with 27; China, 24; Great Britain 20; Australia 18; and Japan 16; Italy, 16; and South Korea with 12.
While the U.S. may have the most medals so far, the rankings for gold medals are a different story.
China leads the way with 11. The United States, which only had five gold medals yesterday, now comes in second after China, at nine. Host nation France ties with Japan and Australia at eight gold medals each. Great Britain and South Korea are tied with six gold medals each.
Now, no nation officially “wins” the Olympics but earning the most medals or gold medals remains a symbol of victory for participating countries.
