@Oberst Ladies football did. But only after media reports on how the men teams routinely flew up front. I don't know if any of the other women on team Japan got upgraded.

The job well done.

Among all countries participated in the Olympics, I have noticed that Japan was the only country carrying Japanese flag and UK flag during opening ceremony. Japan, you have shown the "class" to world audience. I was very impressed!
