South Africa's Cameron Van der Burgh stopped the drought of no medals won by an African Country when he won gold in the men's 100-meter breaststroke on Sunday. Not only did he collect gold, he set a world record by clocking 58.46 seconds, better than anyone else has even clocked in this swimming event.
Great job Cameron ! we hope the other African athletes follow suit.
On the overall medal count, China leads with 17 medals (9 Gold), USA comes 2nd with 17 medals (5 Gold) and France comes 3rd with 7 medals (3 Gold).
