10 years of FIFNostradamusMost Passionate MemberBadminton is very big in China and I imagine more surrounding countries in Asia.
And quite popular in some parts of Europe (to play at least).
Lacrosse I imagine it's the USA hyping it up. And some sprinkles of the Anglosphere. But there is a rise in interest in Europe as well, plus US influenced territories such as the Philippines, Japan and (South) Korea.
I guess by Brisbane 2032 they'll consider adding Padel as well.

10 years of FIFForum SupporterLacrosse is one of those niche sports that only rich Americans play. 15 years ago it was supposed to be the next big thing.

10 years of FIFNostradamusMost Passionate MemberChina tops the medal list with 37 gold medals. USA follows with 35 as of now.
12 golds in Athletics and 8 golds in Swimming for the USA
1 gold in Athletics and 2 golds in Swimming for China
You do wonder if 1 gold medal = 1 gold medal.
Swimmers can compete in a ton of events, fighters (wrestling, taekwondo, judo, boxing) can only compete in one. Track athletes can compete in 2-3..
I just think we need to place an asterisk on these medal tables.

Most Diverse PosterOh I live 20 meters away from Pogačar, trust and believe every cycling event is on tv. Luckily, I don't even watch tv so I don't have to.
I fail to see why some people prefer cycling on tv to volleyball or tennis. It's almost as dull as Nascar racing, just with better scenery.
