The Australian Olympic team left Paris with 53 medals winning 18 gold, marking the country's most successful Olympic campaign.[2]

Taekwondo

[edit]

Australia qualified three athletes to compete at the games. Bailey Lewis, Leon Sejranovic, and Stacey Hymer qualified for Paris 2024 by winning the final match in their respective weight classes at the 2024 Oceania Qualification Tournament in Honiara, Solomon Islands.[68] Originally, Australia were allocated 4 spots, but later, Oceania Taekwondo Union disabled one Olympic quota spot due to the event not having the minimum number of athletes participating in the weight class (Women -49 kg), that being a minimum of 4; therefore the quota places is re-allocated to the WT Olympic Rankings list.

Tennis

[edit]

The main qualifying criterion will be players' positions on the ATP and WTA ranking lists published on 10 June 2024 after the 2024 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. Top ranked men's singles tennis player Alex de Minaur was originally planned to compete, but had to withdraw from the singles event due to a hip injury and this was the second consecutive Olympics that did not compete in singles.[69]
