While every country participating in the Olympics have their own stories to follow, one of the biggest ones in the United States has been swimmer Michael Phelps.� Phelps has already won two gold medals in the early stages of the tournament.� He won one of the medals in an individual race and last night his relay team beat the favorite French team by one eight hundredth of a second.� The victory was a satisfying one for team USA because leading up the event, the French team had promised a victory over the USA team, and they said it would be an easy one.
Michael Phelps is currently on pace to break the all-time gold medal record for a single Olympics.� If he wins every event he�s scheduled to be in he would have nine, beating Mark Spitz�s 36 year record.� Spitz, also a swimmer, is also tied with Carl Lewis for the most Gold Medals of all time, with eight.� If (it�s more like when) Phelps wins his next gold medal, he will be number one all time, as he has already won 8 between this year and last year�s Olympics.� Phelps next chance to do this will be Tuesday in an individual competition.
Also last night the USA Woman�s gymnastics team advanced to the medal stage, second behind the host country team, China.� China finished the preliminary round in first place, but in the medal round, the initial scores are wiped out and you start from scratch.� What China does get out of finishing first is the ability to watch American participate in their events first.� This way, China will no exactly what they will have to do to win the events.
Overall, China is expected to win the most medals in this years Olympics games.� They have been waiting for this moment for a long time, and their over 600 athletes appear to be destined for the Gold Medal title.� Already they have a lead over America in the number of medals, and in just Gold Medals they have a commanding lead.
The action continues nearly all day on NBC and their sister stations.��
