The 2020 Summer Olympics, officially known as the Games of the XXXII Olympiad, were an international multi-sport event held in Tokyo, Japan, from 23 July to 8 August 2021. The Games were postponed by one year as part of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on sports.[2] However, the Games was referred to by its original date in all medals, uniforms, promotional items, and other related media in order to avoid confusion in future years.[3][4] A total of 11,417 athletes from 206 nations participated in 339 events in 33 sports across 50 different disciplines.[5]

Overall, the event saw two records: 93 nations received at least one medal, and 65 of them won at least one gold medal.[6][7] Athletes from the United States won the most medals overall, with 113, and the most gold medals, with 39.[8] Host nation Japan won 27 gold medals, surpassing its gold medal tally of 16 at both the 1964 and 2004 summer editions.[9] Athletes from that nation also won 58 medals overall, which eclipsed its record of 41 overall medals won at the previous Summer Olympics.[10]

American swimmer Caeleb Dressel won the most gold medals at the Games with five.[11] Meanwhile, Australian swimmer Emma McKeon won the greatest number of medals overall, with seven in total.[12] As a result, she tied Soviet gymnast Maria Gorokhovskaya's seven medals at the 1952 Summer edition for most medals won at a single Games by a female athlete.[13] Bermuda, Qatar and the Philippines won their nations' first Olympic gold medals.[14] Meanwhile, Burkina Faso, Turkmenistan and San Marino won their nations' first Olympic medals.[a][14][17]
