Olympics-Team Mexico
Background
Mexico first competed at the 1900 Olympic Games, when three polo players played in Paris, in a mixed North American team. Mexico did not compete again at the Olympics until 1924, but it has competed since without fail.
Through 2022, Mexico has won 72 Olympic medals, 13 of them gold, Mexico also hosted the Games of the XIXth Olympiad at Mexico City (Ciudad de México) in 1968.[1]
This is an ongoing project to ensure that all Olympians who represented Mexico are on Wikitree.
- Connected to their family
- Connected to the Global Tree, if possible
- With profiles that have biographical, family, and sporting information
- Well sourced
