Australia competed at the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo. Originally scheduled to take place from 24 July to 9 August 2020, the Games were postponed to 23 July to 8 August 2021, because of the COVID-19 pandemic. [1] Australia is one of only five countries to have sent athletes to every Summer Olympics of the modern era, alongside Great Britain, France, Greece, and Switzerland.

Contents

Before the official postponement, the country initially withdrew from the Games over the coronavirus pandemic concerns. The executive board of the Australian Olympic Committee unanimously voted to tell their athletes to prepare for a postponed Games. [2]

Australia competed in all sports except baseball, fencing, handball and wrestling. With Australia being hosted the 2032 Summer Olympics in Brisbane, the nation remained in the Japanese Gojūon order during the parade of nations between El Salvador and Austria.

Australia left Tokyo with 46 medals winning 17 gold medals equalling their best total from Athens 2004 along with 7 silver and 22 bronze.

Artistic swimming

Australia fielded a squad of eight artistic swimmers to compete in the women's duet and team event through an Oceania continental selection in the team free routine at the 2019 FINA World Championships in Gwangju, South Korea.

Sailing

Australian sailors qualified one boat in each of the following classes through the 2018 Sailing World Championships, the class-associated Worlds, and the continental regattas. [85] [86] [87]

On 20 September 2019, the Australian Olympic Committee announced the first set of sailors selected for Tokyo 2020, namely Rio 2016 silver medallists and defending world 470 champions Mathew Belcher and William Ryan and world's current top-ranked Laser sailor Matthew Wearn. [88] The skiff crews (49er and 49erFX), highlighted by Ryan's sister and fellow Rio 2016 Olympian Jaime Ryan, were named to the sailing team on 27 February 2020, while Nacra 17 cousins Jason Waterhouse and Lisa Darmanin were set to defend their Rio 2016 podium finish at the Enoshima regatta, after being selected four days later. [89] [90] Laser Radial sailor Mara Stransky joined the sailing roster on 19 March 2020, followed by the women's 470 crew (Nia Jerwood & Monique de Vries) over a year later. [91] [92] Finn yachtsman and Rio 2016 Olympian Jake Lilley rounded out the sailing selection for the rescheduled Games on 21 April 2021. [93]

Tennis

The main qualifying criterion will be players' positions on the ATP and WTA ranking lists published on 14 June 2021 after the 2021 French Open. The players entering were formally submitted by the International Tennis Federation. The ATP and WTA rankings were based on performances from the previous 52 weeks, and there were several tournaments in the two-month period between the time of the rankings being frozen for entry and the beginning of the tennis events at the Olympics. Players had to be part of a nominated team for three Billie Jean King Cup (women) or Davis Cup (men) events between the 2016 and 2020 Olympics. This requirement was reduced to two Fed/Davis Cup events during the Olympic cycle from 2016 to 2020 if their nation competed at the Zone Group round robin level for three of the four years or if the player had represented their nation at least twenty times.

No quota spots are available for mixed doubles; instead, all teams have to consist of players already qualified in the singles or doubles. The top 15 combined ranking teams and the host nation qualified.

Australia has four players eligible players in the men's tournaments and three in the women's.
