If Texas were a country, it would be sixth in the world for Olympic medals
Texas-tied athletes have taken home more medals at the 2024 Paris Olympic games than most countries, Austin TV station KXAN reports. The United States is in the lead with the most medals of any country, bagging a total of 89 as of press time, and China ranks a distant second. However, the U.S. can thank the Lone Star state for at least 32 of its total, which were won by athletes who are either from Texas or trained in Texas, according to KXAN's number crunching.
