After a dominant Day 6 that saw them bring home four golds, the United States added several more medals to their Olympic-leading tally of 37 on Friday. They started off bright and early, with Sagen Maddalena claiming silver in the 50-meter rifle 3 positions shooting final, followed by Ian Barrows and Hans Henken taking bronze in rowing’s skiff medal race. The U.S. took silver in the equestrian jumping team final, and won archery’s bronze team medal match against India, 6-2.
Team USA also continued to swim towards success. Regan Smith took silver in the women’s 200-meter backstroke final after Caeleb Dressel failed to defend his gold medals in the 50-meter freestyle — placing sixth — and the 100-meter butterfly — failing to qualify after placing fifth in the semis. And on the track, Grant Fisher earned a surprising bronze in the men’s 10,000-meter final, finishing with a time of 26:43.46 and becoming the second American since 1964 to medal in the event.
Overall, the Americans remain in the lead in Paris with 43 total medals after Friday, seven more than host country France’s 36. This includes nine gold medals — which is just behind Australia and France with 11 each. China continues to lead the race for gold with 13 so far.
The United States entered the 2024 Games with the most medals ever won in the Summer Olympics. The U.S. also holds the record for most gold medals won in a single games with 83 captured in 1984, one of the country’s host years that took place as the Soviet Union led a 12-nation boycott of the Los Angeles Games. Such lofty totals will not happen this year. In Paris, America is simply looking to build upon the success that it had three years ago where the U.S. brought home 39 gold medals, 41 silvers and 33 bronze.
