Who will win the 2024 Olympic Games Nations’ Cup?
Even if we all wish it: Germany will not win the 2024 Olympic Nations Championships either. It has only ever done so once in the past, in 1936.
So who will end up at the top of the Olympic medal table in Paris? In their predictions, the bookmakers expect a duel between the USA and China.
The USA won the Nations Championships in London 2012, Rio de Janeiro 2016 and Tokyo 2021. Before that, China was victorious once in 2008, when the Games were held in Beijing – in their own country.
The first runner-up for the most Olympic gold medals is 2024 host France. In 1900 and 1906, the French already won the Nations’ Cup – a long, long time ago. However, it is highly unlikely that France will beat the USA and China in athletics and swimming.
Great Britain has won once at the end of the Olympic Games, but 1908 is not exactly yesterday either. In Tokyo at the last Games, they finished in 4th place.
Japan finished ahead of the British in their own country three years ago. Despite the lack of a home advantage, the bookmakers believe it is possible that the Japanese will be as strong again. Finishing on the podium would be a huge success.

How to calculate the 2024 Olympic medal table
The principle of the Olympic medal table has not changed in 2024. Basically, it’s not about the question of who wins the most medals in Paris, but which nation can celebrate the most gold medals.
So if Germany wins 30 gold medals and no other medals, it would finish ahead of the USA with 29 gold, 50 silver and 33 bronze medals.
A shift in the medal table is therefore particularly visible in the lower places. If, for example, smaller nations from Africa are strong in one athletics discipline, they usually end up ahead of countries that are at least among the leaders in various sports in the medal table.
Overall, however, all the precious metals won are simply added together for the 2024 Olympic medal table. A total of 329 gold medals are up for grabs in Paris (and Tahiti)
