This is how the official olympics medal tally looks: It’s not only the official tally, but the one linked from google each time you type “olympics” and terms like “australia olympics”. Thus making it an absurdly popular page at this time. As you can see, the design is reedeeeculous. The thing you want to see the most - total medal tally - is several miles away from the country. It’s good they’ve used alternative shading for odd and even rows, but even so, it’s still difficult to see the connection. Especially since the gold/silver/bronze tallies are shown in a different colour. I don’t know how many gazillion dollars the official IT contract went for, but this is what it should look like according to any basic book on web design: (The following images are just to record the fact it’s linked from Google since it won’t be linked much longer.)
