Default Who've been your (non-British) stars of the 2012 Olympics (so far)?
For me: Missy Franklin has been the best. Amazing swimmer, and seems like a really nice, personable and funny girl.

Swimmers have such a big advantage with how many events they are allowed to swim in and how a lot of them are all really similar to each other, due to how many hours she put to win 2 medals Vika has to be up there and same with Serena, Raisman winning 2 Gold Medals and a Bronze in Gymnastics was pretty impressive as well
