Thank you!
Wow, can’t believe China has never won a floor medal.

Yeah, their lack of medals actually surprises me! But they’ve only been around half as long as most I guess.

It’s like Russia. I always get surprised they have so few medals and forget they’ve been a country/team for less than 30 years.

I’m kind of amazed that Russia has never won the team competition. Or individual all-around. Obviously, the Soviet history overshadows that, but still. Wow.

Yeah, it’s kind of amazing how close they get in the all-around (Svetlana qualifying 1st in 2000 but then #VaultGate, Svetlana in 2004, Vika in 2012) and yet seem to not quite make it all the way. They do get bragging rights for the Soviet Era, but it’s crazy how drastically the tides shifted once the USSR broke up and how there was such a change from the strict old school system to welcome in younger programs using different methods to get ahead. Now it’s starting to look less and less likely for them each quad after Svetlana, though Vika did break that mold (and Aliya did as well before her injury)…hopefully in the future they’ll get another young star who can make it happen for them? Because yeah, it’s definitely shocking that it hasn’t happened yet.

So over 88 years and 20 Olympics, only 15 non-Big Four countries have ever gotten medals. That includes countries that used to be huge, though, like Ukraine, Czech, Hungary. There are really only like 11 countries that have snagged medals outside of the big powers, which seems like a really small number.
LikeLike
Yeah, it’s crazy! It’s SO small, especially in recent years. I mean, even this year, of the 18 medals, only 5 went to countries that weren’t the U.S. or Russia, which is nuts.

Oh, wait, nope, I misread your post – she never made a beam final at the Olympics. She was fourth on floor in both 2012 and 2016.

This is amazingly interesting, thank you! 🙂
It is so cool to see the peaks and troughs of all the nations mapped out like this – Japan is I retesting, I’m surprised they haven’t much historical success, which makes the current good state of the women’s programme really exciting!

(FYI Allana Slater (AUS) made the beam final at the 2004 Athens games to place 8th)
