Medal Count 2016 Olympics: Twitter Reacts to Standings and Results on Sunday

The rest of the world is running out of events at the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro to catch up to the United States in the medal tally.

Thanks to strong efforts from Simone Biles in gymnastics, Justin Gatlin in the 100-meter dash and Matt Kuchar in golf, among others, the Americans are far ahead of every other country in the race for the most medals.

Twitter users had plenty of reactions to the developments as the United States strengthened its lead over China and others in the medal tracker Sunday:

Biles is one of the marquee names at the 2016 Games thanks to her overall dominance in gymnastics, and she won her third gold medal in Rio on Sunday with a triumph in the vault. She captured gold in the team and individual all-around events earlier in the Games, and NBC Olympics shared her performance as well as her reaction to Sunday's victory:

She also took to Twitter after the win:

Elsewhere in gymnastics, Great Britain's Max Whitlock won two gold medals with victories in the men's floor exercise and on the pommel horse. The bronze medalist in the individual all-around competition reacted to his performance at the Games thus far, per the British gymnastics team:

While the gymnastics performances were impressive, Usain Bolt was the biggest headline-maker Sunday. The Jamaican sprinter made history by becoming the first runner to win the 100-meter dash at three different Olympics, as he outlasted silver medalist Gatlin and the rest of the field:

Bolt ran it in 9.81 seconds, but the other runners never had a chance.

NBC Olympics passed along the celebration in his home country, and he thanked his fans for the support:

Bolt wasn't the only one to make history on the track Sunday. South Africa's Wayde van Niekerk won gold in the men's 400 meters with a world-record time of 43.03 seconds. He broke Michael Johnson's record and earned his respect in the process:

While Bolt and Van Niekerk ran shorter distances, Jemima Jelagat Sumgong of Kenya took home gold in the grueling women's marathon. Kyle Porter of CBS Sports appeared to feel for the fourth-place finisher, Tirfi Tsegaye of Ethiopia:

The marathon is an Olympic tradition, but golf returned to the Games for the first time since 1904. Great Britain's Justin Rose won gold, while Sweden's Henrik Stenson secured silver, and Kuchar earned bronze. Tiger Woods congratulated all of the golfers after the historic event's conclusion:

It wasn't all medal events Sunday, as Americans Kerri Walsh Jennings and April Ross advanced in the women's beach volleyball tournament with a victory over Australia's Taliqua Clancy and Louise Bawden. The U.S. Olympic team noted Jennings and Ross had some famous basketball players there for support:

Kevin Durant, Draymond Green, DeAndre Jordan and Jimmy Butler did more than watch volleyball Sunday. They closed out a perfect group record with a narrow 100-97 win over France in a game that star Tony Parker missed. It was closer than the United States hoped it would be, but Klay Thompson saved the day with 30 points and seven made three-pointers.

Complex Sports summarized his performance:

The Americans had another close contest Friday, when they beat Serbia 94-91. As long as they keep winning, the trips to watch other sports will likely remain enjoyable, but they have been far from dominant.

However, Team USA as a whole has been commanding at the Olympics, and that continued Sunday.
