Hi all, I was recently reading the below article which listed the greatest Olympic gold winners of all time. I noticed there were 6 swimmers in the list out of 25 athletes.
Is this because there are multiple opportunities to win medals at Olympic swimming or just because the swimmers winning the medals are by far the best in their field?

Track and field has more events than swimming,but more specialization.Gymnastics has several events and pretty much everyone does all of them so a really great gymnast can rack up a lot of medals.
