Data agency Gracenote says the Netherlands could win up to 34 medals at the Paris Olympics, and 17 of those could be gold.

The haul puts the Netherlands in ninth place on the virtual medals table, with only the US, China and host nation France predicted to win more golds.

Three years ago, in Tokyo, the Dutch won 36 medals.

“At four of the last six Olympic Games, the Netherlands has won medals in 11 to 13 sports and the 2024 games look like being a similar story,” Gracenote said. “However, success this year will primarily depend on three sports; rowing, cycling – track and athletics.

The Olympics take place from July 26 to August 11.
