Jam 3 medals

Caribbean still struggling. Cuba and Dominican Rep have been especially disappointing up to this point. Cuba may still pick up a few in boxing tho.
Jam expect a bonanza in track and field.

I will be surprised if Quinn not does medal for PR in the 100 hurdles

It will be a shocker if she lose.

Countries outside of Asia are struggling!

At the 2017 World Champs in London, Jamaica only got four medals, including one gold.
Anything that surpasses that might not meet the expectations of the optimists, but would still be good in the post-Bolt era.
In the 2019 World Champs in Doha, Jamaica got 12 medals, which probably surpassed expectations.
Anything between the four in 2017 and the 12 in 2019 would be fairly decent, IMHO.
Especially for a country of less than 4 million.
Also, the medals haven't been handed out for boxing, so expect Cuba to up their tally when they are.
At Rio in 2016, Cuba got 11 medals, and at London in 2012 they got 15. So, let's see....
