List of Jewish Olympic medalists

Last updated July 28, 2025

Since the inception of the modern Olympic Games in 1896, Jewish athletes have taken part in both the Summer Olympics and the Winter Olympics. The following is a list of Jewish athletes who have won an Olympic medal in the modern games.

Under the criteria of this list, Olympic medalists must have or had at least one Jewish parent and must have identified as Jewish. If the player has converted to another religion before their Olympic achievements, they should not be listed. Similarly, if the player has converted to Judaism before their Olympic achievements, they should be included; if they converted afterwards, they should not be listed here.
