The recently concluded Asian Games finished with the usual suspects topping the medal table.
China went home with the highest number of overall medals (289, with 132 gold), while Japan and the Republic of Korea rounded out the top three.
The 2018 Asiad, held in Jakarta-Palembang, Indonesia, saw China dominant both on surf and turf. China also ruled the ether, above the rim, as its men's and women's hoops teams flew home with the yellow metal round their necks. The men beat Iran 84-72, while the fairer gender outscored a Unified Korean team 71-65 on the hardwood.
