Olympic 2021 Medal Count: Final Tally, Winners from Day 7 Early Events
July 30, 2021
The United States and China both eclipsed the 40-medal mark during Friday's action at the 2020 Summer Olympics.
The Americans hold a one-medal edge on China going into Friday night. The United States has 41 medals, with 14 of them being gold.
As they have all week, the Americans earned a majority of their medals in the swimming pool. Two silvers and a bronze were picked up across the four medal events.
Despite being one back on the overall medal table, China has five more golds than its top competition.
China closed the gap between itself and the Americans by earning multiple medals in table tennis and trampoline.
The full Olympic medal table and list of winners can be found here on the Olympics website.

United States Picks Up 3 More Medals In Swimming
Ryan Murphy, Lilly King and Annie Lazor grew the list of American medal winners from the pool on Day 7.
Murphy produced a silver in the men's 200-meter backstroke. King and Lazor were second and third in the women's 200-meter breaststroke.
Twenty-four of the 41 medals earned by the United States have come from swimming. They are tied with Australia for the most golds in the pool with six.
That total could blossom over the next two days with Caeleb Dressel and Katie Ledecky still waiting to swim finals in marquee events.
Once the action ends in the pool, the Americans will turn to the track and field events to pick up a bulk of their medals.
At the 2016 Rio Games, the United States produced 65 medals between the two sports. The swimmers earned the slightest of edges over the track athletes.
The men's and women's basketball teams, as well as the women's soccer team, could also add to the American haul in the second week of the Games.
China Catches Up To United States
China picked up a total of nine medals on Day 7.
The medal surge from table tennis, trampoline and badminton moved China past Japan in the race for the most gold medals. China leads Japan 19-17 in that category.
The lack of medals outside of swimming for the United States on Day 7 led to the Chinese moving within one medal on the overall table.
China swept the gold and silver medals in badminton mixed doubles, table tennis men's singles and women's trampoline.
Shun Wang also added to the medal haul with a gold-medal swim in the men's 200-meter individual medley.
After one week of competition, China earned a gold medal in nine different sports, with three or more coming from diving, swimming, shooting and weightlifting.
