2. PR-China

3. Russia

Answer 3

CHINA PR will win.

Answer 4

Other than the fact that the US has the most medals and China has the most gold, your question is inane.

Answer 5

As opposed to simply stating opinion, I decided to check the factual history of the Olympic summer games.

In every assessment of which country dominated the games, both the total golds and total medal counts are considered.

In every summer games, the country that won the most golds also had the most total medals.  To do both, signified a strong cross-section of dominance within the world of sports/athleticism.

Whether it was the Soviet Union or n**i Germany, the international community recognized their Olympic superiority because they had both the highest total and gold medal count despite being nations' with horrific human rights abuses and oppressive ideologies.

In all of the games that it was considered the best, the USA also lead in both total medal and gold medal counts.

If China does not lead in both total medals and gold medals, it should not be recognized as the best in this Olympics.  At the end of the games, it will simply be a draw between the US and China.  It will also probably be a disappointment for the Chinese government which has invested more in these games than in ending genocide within Darfur/Sudan or brutal oppression within its own borders.

Answer 6

Right now, China.

Answer 7

China is winning.  

Gold medal means you won the event.   Whoever wins the most events has got to be the winner.   Therefore most golds = winner.  

Winning a bunch of silver and bronze is meaningless because it only means you lost the event 2nd and 3rd.  

Answer 8

We have more medals..  But China has more gold.

So china is winning.

they are beating up by 10 gold medals.

Answer 9

U.S.A!! by a little.

1. U.S.A- 48

2.China- 41

3.Australia- 22

Answer 10

The athletes are the ones winning. Aside from petty bragging rights there is no over all competition between the countries. Just be proud of your countries participants and their personal accomplishments.

Answer 11

There's no such thing as "winning the Olympics" actually.  There are medal tallies, but that's just a stat for national pride and that's it.  The Olympics are about the athletes, not the countries, so the only winners are those who won a gold medal.

But if even if you must look at tallies, both could be said are winning, based on how you look at it.  Some may say "the lead" goes to whoever's won the most gold (China), while others would say it goes to whoever has one more total medals (US).

Answer 12

China according to the World

USA according to the US.

Gold is what's it about.

So China is obviously leading and obviously going to win more Gold than any other country.
