Austrian athletes for the 2016 Summer Olympics

Austria competed at the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, from 5 to 21 August 2016. It was the nation's twenty-seventh appearance at the Summer Olympics. Austrian athletes have appeared in every edition of the Summer Olympic Games, with the exception of the 1920 Summer Olympics in Antwerp. The Austrian Olympic Committee (German: Österreichisches Olympisches Comité, ÖOC) confirmed a squad of 71 athletes, 37 men and 34 women, to compete across 22 sports at the Games. The nation's full roster had one more participant than the previous two Games.

The Austrian roster featured 29 returning Olympians, with Chinese-born table tennis player Liu Jia, the nation's flag bearer in the opening ceremony, leading them as the only competitor going to her fifth consecutive Games. Apart from Liu, judoka and Beijing 2008 silver medalist Ludwig Paischer, dressage rider Victoria Max-Theurer, and skiff duo Nico Delle-Karth and Nikolaus Resch in the 49er class also topped the roster lineup to make their fourth Olympic appearance. Other notable Austrian athletes included world-ranked sailor Lara Vadlau and her Polish-born partner Jolanta Ogar in the women's 470, London 2012 sixth-place finalist Corinna Kuhnle in slalom kayaking, and twin sisters Anna-Maria and Eirini Alexandri.

Austria left Rio de Janeiro with only a bronze medal, won by sailing duo of Thomas Zajac and Tanja Frank in the Nacra 17 class, saving its pride from returning empty-handed as they had done at London 2012.[1][2] Slalom canoeist Corinna Kuhnle, rifle shooter Olivia Hofmann, discus thrower Lukas Weißhaidinger, and rower Magdalena Lobnig (sixth, women's single sculls) were among the Austrian athletes progressing to the finals of their respective sporting events, but came closest to the nation's medal haul.

Background

[edit]

Austria participated in twenty-seven Summer Olympics between its debut at the 1896 Summer Olympics in Athens, Greece, and the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The nation chose table tennis player Liu Jia as its flagbearer in the opening ceremony and the sailing duo of Thomas Zajac and Tanja Frank for the closing ceremony.[3][4] They were one of the three nations who used more than one person to bear the flag in the closing ceremony.[5] A delegation of 71 athletes, 37 men and 34 women, travelled to Rio de Janeiro and competed across 22 sports.[6][7] Among the sports represented by its athletes, Austria marked its Olympic debut in golf (new to the 2016 Games), as well as its return to diving after 8 years, rowing and weightlifting after 12 years, and archery after 32 years. Austrian athletes have won a total of 86 medals at the Summer Olympic Games.[8]

Elisabeth Baldauf was selected among the top 34 individual shuttlers in the women's singles based on the BWF World Rankings as of 5 May 2016, while David Obernorsterer picked up one of the spare athlete berths from the doubles as the next highest-ranked eligible player in the men's singles.[15] The duo, which frequently plays together in international open events, both made their individual Olympic debut. Both of them lost all their games and came last in their groups. Obernosterer competed in group E of the men's singles event together with Lin Dan, Vladimir Malkov, and Nguyễn Tiến Minh. His first game was against Lin. Lin has previously won two gold medals in the 2012 Olympics and 2008 Olympics.[16] On 11 August, Obernosterer lost the first set 5–21 and the second 11–21.[17] The following day, he lost 18–21 and 14–21 against Minh.[18] Finally, on 14 August, he lost 11–21 and 10–21 to Malkov.[19] He failed to qualify for the round of 16.[20]

Meanwhile, Elisabeth Baldauf was in group N of the women's singles along with Tai Tzu-ying and Natalia Perminova.[21] She lost her first game on 11 August against Tai 11–21 in the first set and 9–21 in the second.[22] Two days later, she lost her second and final game against Perminova 17–21 and 8–21.[23] Tai ended up qualifying for the elimination round by beating Perminova 21-12 and 21-9 but was then eliminated by Pusarla Sindhu who later won the silver medal.[24][21]

He finished in the fifteenth allotted position, thus qualifying for the semifinals.[28] However, he finished fifteenth with a time of 100.25 seconds, missing out the finals by a 4.57-second deficit.[29][30] Meanwhile, Corinna Kuhnle finished her first run with a time of 109.63 seconds and her second in 107.02 seconds, placing twelfth overall and making her way to the semifinals.[31] In the semifinals, she finished with her best time of the event with 101.54 seconds, which ranked her first in the semifinals.[32] She could not match that time and came fifth in 104.75 seconds, missing the podium by 2.26 seconds.[33][34]

Austria has received a spare berths from the International Canoe Federation to enter two boats each in the women's K-1 200 m and the women's K-2 500 m to the Olympics, as the next highest-ranked nation, not yet qualified, at the 2015 Canoe Sprint World Championships, and as a response to the forfeiture of five boats held by the Russians due to their previous doping bans and their implications in the "disappearing positive methodology" set out in the McClaren Report on Russia's state-sponsored doping.[35] Two-time Olympic kayakers Yvonne Schuring and Viktoria Schwarz, along with rookie Ana Roxana Lehaci, were named to the Austrian roster on 27 July 2016.[36] Viktoria Schwarz participated in the K-1 200 metres. In the heats, she finished fifth in 42.847 seconds, qualifying for the semifinals.[37] Rounding off her semifinal heat with a seventh-place time in 43.072, Schwarz was ineligible to compete in any of the final rounds.[38][39]

Lehaci and Schuring participated in the K-2 500 metres, finishing sixth with a time of 1:46.429 minutes and automatically qualified for the semifinals.[40] If they would have finished first, they would have automatically qualified for the A finals.[41] They finished fourth behind Alyssa Bull and Alyce Burnett of Australia, failing to qualify for the A final. The Austrian duos' time was 1:44.462 minutes and the Australians' was 1:44.290.[42] In the B final, they finished third in 1:48.834 minutes, ranking eleventh overall.[43][44]

The pair were later implicated in a blood doping scandal, with Denifl in particular being accused of doping in a timeframe including the Olympics.[48] Priedler fared better four days later at the men's individual time trial, finishing 16th out of 35 starting riders with a time of 1:16:02.36.[49] Martina Ritter, who won the Austrian National Time Trial Championships two months earlier, competed in the women's individual road race.

Austria has qualified two boats for each of the following classes into the Olympic regatta, signifying the nation's Olympic return to the sport for the first time since 2004. Rowers competing in the men's lightweight double sculls and women's single sculls had confirmed Olympic places for their boats at the 2015 FISA World Championships in Lac d'Aiguebelette, France.[110] Brothers Bernhard and Paul Sieber competed in the men's lightweight double sculls. Following a fourth place finish in the heats, the Austrian pair eked out the Swiss delegation by 1.49 seconds in the repechage to qualify for the semifinals in second place.[111] The brothers proceeded to finish last in both the semifinals and non-medal finals, with times of 6:53.62 and 6:42.19 respectively.[112][113]

Magdalena Lobnig represented Austria in the women's single sculls event. She placed first in her heat and third in the quarterfinals, thus qualifying to semi-finals A/B.
