But you can't count just gold, you have to include silver and bronze as well. If you go by a reasonable point system, like gold=5, silver =3, bronze=1 or gold =4, silver=2, bronze =1, the standings remain virtually unchanged. The only difference being that Austria and Russia switch positions. This is based on medal counts as of this posting.
