Medal table
The medal table is based on information provided by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and is consistent with IOC conventional sorting in its published medal tables. The table uses the Olympic medal table sorting method. By default, the table is ordered by the number of gold medals the athletes from a nation have won, where a nation is an entity represented by a NOC. The number of silver medals is taken into consideration next and then the number of bronze medals.Olympics 2024 medal table: How every nation stands in Paris https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/olympics/olympics-2024-medal-table-count-paris-b2580716.html The Independent 24 July 2024 https://web.archive.org/web/20240725050134/https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/olympics/olympics-2024-medal-table-count-paris-b2580716.html 25 July 2024 live Ostlere Lawrence 25 July 2024 enA Medal Count That Adds Up To Little https://www.nytimes.com/2008/08/19/sports/olympics/19araton.html The New York Times 18 August 2008 https://web.archive.org/web/20230321004238/https://www.nytimes.com/2008/08/19/sports/olympics/19araton.html 21 March 2023 live Araton Harvey subscription 25 July 2024 If teams are still tied, equal ranking is given and they are listed alphabetically by their IOC country code.Cons Roddy What happens if two countries are tied in the Olympic medal table?
