The Women’s Medal Tally following Day 4 of the 2024 Paris Olympics

How are countries faring at the 2024 Paris Olympics when it comes to women winning medals?

At the end of Day Four in Paris, Australia is still leading the Women’s Medal Tally. All six gold medals Australia has won on the general tally were won by women, the latest coming from Kaylee McKeown, who defended her 100m backstroke title.

Australia is three gold medals ahead of the next best, the United States.

The Women’s Medal Tally is presented by Women’s Agenda to offer a different take on the standard medal tallies shared during the Olympics. It calculates all medals won by women across the team and individual women’s events as well as the mixed-gender events.

With this tally, we’re not only learning more about the unique stories of women winning medals, including so far women from Ukraine and Kosovo, but we also hope to highlight differences in how countries are faring when it comes to the general medal count and the women’s medal county.

The tally is updated daily, and features permanently here and below.
