Starting next week, nearly 11,000 athletes hailing from 206 different nations will comPete for gold across 329 events at the 2024 Paris Olympics.

The 33rd edition of the Summer Games, this year’s Olympics are being held in the French capital for the third time, drawing the city alongside London as the event’s most frequent host. A third venue, Los Angeles, is set to equal that mark when it stages the Games in summer 2028.

Who will top the medal table this year?

In France, Team USA will look to continue its dominance of the Olympics medal table. The Americans have led the standings at six of the last seven Summer Games, including each of the last three. In Tokyo in 2021, USA pipped China to top spot, earning one more gold medals than the Chinese (39 to 38).

The bookmakers have installed the USA as the clear frontrunners to win the most golds once more, offering odds of -500 on victory for the Stars and Stripes. China are the second favourites, with odds of +300, followed by three countries - France, Great Britain and Japan - who are back on +8000.
