I'm surprised Canada doesn't have a higher rated team there. I thought there were a few 2600+ players in Canada.

What's TB and how do you calculate it?
TBs are Tie-Breaks.
You can find how to calculate it in page 12 of the Olympiad 2024 FIDE Handbook.

Jeeze... Canada is in 11th place, only one point behind India and the other leaders.
Unreal... our team is typically out-rated by more than 100 points on every board.
They are having a PHENOMENAL Olympiad.
India will win

TB is almost certainly "Tie-Break".
If several teams finish with the same high score, then the winning team is decided by tie-break.
Basically, if I got my 25 points by playing stronger teams while you got your 25 points by playing weaker teams, then my tie-break is higher than yours.
Canada was out-rated on all four boards, and won the match against Greece.
Huzzah!
