1928 Winter Olympics medal count
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This is the full table of the medal count of the 1928 Winter Olympics, which were held in St. Moritz, Switzerland. These rankings sort by the number of gold medals earned by a country. The number of silvers is taken into consideration next and then the number of bronze. If, after the above, countries are still tied, equal ranking is given and they are listed alphabetically. This follows the system used by the IOC, IAAF and BBC.
(Host country is highlighted, greatest number of medals in each category is in bold.)
