The United States is experiencing a historic performance in the 2024 Olympic Games, particularly in track and field and women's events. The U.S. has won 14 gold medals in track and field, the highest for any nation at a non-boycotted Games since 1968, and a total of 34 track and field medals, the most since 1932. American men have delivered strong performances in middle and long-distance events, securing five medals. Meanwhile, U.S. women have been exceptional, winning more medals than any country except the full U.S. team and China. The U.S. has secured 64 medals in women's events and is guaranteed at least three more, potentially breaking the record for the most medals in women's events by any nation for the third consecutive Summer Games.
