^^ we already have by population: GB # 12'; USA # 40

For the official tally - not possibly. GB has 4 boxers in the semis, both men and women hockey team in the semi, Tom Daley in diving final, Mo Farah in the 5K and thats about it. Including Tom D, Mo, we will possibly get 3/4 more golds.... not enough to topple USA. In fact the difference will become larger, given that they have beach volleyball, basketball, volleyball etc to win medals in.
Its a shame, we lost few easy golds in few events, including Victoria Pendleton in cycling but its never easy, is it!
