Phelps retired 8 years ago, they've had time to regroupI like the hosts to do well (I'm also a Francophile)
It's Aus we need to beat.
USA at this stage are suffering from Phelps' retirement.
They'll pull away when track and field gets going.

I think its mainly Marchand being dominant.Phelps retired 8 years ago, they've had time to regroup
Marchand is outrageous but only has one gold so far. Ledecky and Dressel haven't really got started yet (Dressel in the relay only). Hard to see less than three more golds out of those two.I think its mainly Marchand being dominant.
Your 2024 table is well out of date so far, that's from about 2 days agoAt midpoint USA just not winning medal count looks normal

Or this swimming only?
Similar reason why we held it at Royal Artillery Barracks (although we moved it closer to London as originally National Shooting Center)? Essentially gun laws and security.Why the shooting happening so far away from Paris?
I'm sure there are "a big field" closer than 200 miles.
Not that I'm complaining, Chateauroux is right next door to Ali's home town

It was a question more than statement.Fair.
Though surely there are shooting clubs closer as well, not to.mention (especially in France) there would be ways around these things for the Olympics.
Ok, so maybe not the gardens of Versailles, but... somewhere
Eventing was already at VersaillesFair.

TeamGB are a long way down on 2020/1 as wellSwimming only was trying to work out what was going on with USA
TYApparently it's one of the largest in Europe so means they can host all shooting events there rather than having target in one place and clay in another
I did say "not the gardens of Versailles"Eventing was already at Versailles
The only way you could have used Versailles were if the targets were peasants (in keeping with it's history)TY
