We have really good chances at winning golds in the following.

Men's & Women's Beach Volleyball
Men's & Women's Basketball
Women's Softball
Women's Singles Tennis
Women's Doubles Tennis
Men's Doubles Tennis
Phelps Last 3 events

Then we have Track & Field which we should get some other gold medals in
