How these forecasts workv1.0
Each nation's share of every sport's medals over the last three Summer Games (weighted 0.5, 0.3, 0.2 toward Paris), multiplied out over the LA28 programme of 351 events: Paris 2024's counts with the confirmed changes (new 50m swimming events, mixed relays and team events, baseball and softball back, cricket, flag football, lacrosse and squash added, breaking and lightweight rowing gone). Those four new sports have no modern Olympic history, so their medals are shared by each nation's overall share. A home Games is worth more to a small team than a big one, so the host boost is measured against the size of the host's usual share: for the United States, 1.16x on golds and 1.00x on all medals. Russia and Belarus are left out until their status for LA28 is settled.
Back-tested by forecasting each Games from the three before it. On Paris 2024, held out from every fit, the 30 biggest medal winners were off by 4.39 medals on average (5.03 for "same as Tokyo") and 2.77 golds (2.23); the 80% ranges held 30/30 totals and 28/30 gold counts. Over 2012-2020: 2012 4.5 medals off (naive 4.87), 2016 6.32 medals off (naive 4.93), 2020 5.15 medals off (naive 6.07). The model beat repeating the last Games on total medals in 3 of 4 Games and on golds in 3.
Every forecast is frozen when it locks and scored against the result. Resolution rules: The nation ranked first on the official medal table (golds first) at the close of the Games. The official IOC medal table at the close of the Los Angeles 2028 Games (golds); later reallocations are not counted. The official IOC medal table at the close of the Los Angeles 2028 Games (gold, silver and bronze combined); later reallocations are not counted. The rest follow the same rule for their own subject.
Not forecast, and why
- russia: did not compete as a nation at Paris 2024; LA28 status not settled
- belarus: did not compete as a nation at Paris 2024; LA28 status not settled
- Medals in cricket, flag football, lacrosse and squash by nation: No modern Olympic history; their 8 events are allocated by each nation's overall share.
Every Games
Medal leaders per edition; the two 1956 Summer hostings (Melbourne and Stockholm) are combined.
Special and historical teams
Combined sides, dissolved states kept whole, and neutral delegations.
Sources & methodology
Medal tables from the Olympedia historical record, every Summer and Winter Games plus the 1906 Intercalated Games, which we count fully in all-time totals as a deliberate editorial choice; the IOC excludes it. Historical delegations fold into their modern lineages (Soviet Union, Unified Team and ROC into Russia; Yugoslavia and Serbia & Montenegro into Serbia; Bohemia and Czechoslovakia into Czechia; West Germany into Germany; the United Arab Republic into Egypt), with each Games row attributed to the name the team competed under.
East Germany stands alone as a dissolved state, and the combined and neutral teams (Australasia, the West Indies Federation, the Netherlands Antilles, the Refugee Olympic Team, Independent and Neutral athletes, and the early Mixed teams) keep their own pages rather than being folded into anyone's totals.
