Answer 2

Answer 3

I think that the five people for me were: Michael Phelps, Rebecca Adlington, Christine Ohorugu, Ma Lin and Usain Bolt.

Answer 4

I felt Michael Phelps and Ma Lin were definitely well-known before these Games.

I would say:

1) Usain Bolt

2) Ara Abrahamian (for all the wrong reasons)

3) Nastia Liukin

4) Cheng Fei

5) Matthew Mitcham

Only Bolt really had the same impact Liu Xiang did in Athens 2004 though.

Answer 5

Phelps, Johnson and Bolt I would agree with, but I would also add Coughlin and Ara Abrahamian (the wrestler who felt that a poor judge call cost him a gold medal and left his medal on the mat)
