Australians are choking.Its happening here, there and everywhere at the Olympic Games.In the pool. At the velodrome. Hockey pitches. Basketball courts. Long jump pits ... to name a few.As Australian favourites flop, theyre leaving a whiff of one of sports rankest odours - the smell of what couldabeen, what shouldabeen.Purely measured in gold, Londons 2012 Games were Australias worst for two decades.Rio de Janeiros edition surely wont be that bad.Australia have seven gold medals in Rio already, compared to eight in London (one of those came almost four years late when Jared Tallent was belatedly awarded his walking gold).Arriving in Rio, the Australian Olympic Committees own benchmarking predicted 13 gold. Thats still possible by the time competition ends on Sunday (Monday AEST).Global sports data company Gracenote forecast 18 Australian golds. Always far-fetched.But what ccouldabeen if some of the gargantuan names on Australias Olympic team hadnt, well, choked?Cate Campbell.dddddddddddd Anna Meares. Mens hockey players. Emily Seebohm. Bronte Campbell. Annette Edmondson.Campbells greatest choke in Olympic historyAll arrived in Rio as either world record holders, world champions, world No.1 or defending Olympic champions.Fabrice Lapierre. Womens basketballers. Arrived ranked second in the world.Womens hockey. Womens water polo. Arrived as world No.3.Then theres swimmer Cameron McEvoy and cyclist Matthew Glaetzer. Both arrived with the fastest times in the world in their respective pet events.For all of the above, its what couldabeen. What shouldabeen. And what wasnt.Not one individual gold medal from the lot of them. And for those teams, no medal of any colour. ' ' '
