Do all participants of the Olympics receive a medal

Participating in the Olympic Games is a dream for many athletes, but only a select few have the honour of standing on the podium with a medal around their neck. So, do all participants of the Olympics receive a medal?

The answer is no. In the history of the Olympic Games, only medallists have received medals. The first, second, and third-place finishers in each event are awarded gold, silver, and bronze medals, respectively.

The International Olympic Committee (IOC) has strict rules regarding the distribution of medals. Only athletes who place in the top three positions in an event are eligible to receive a medal. There are no exceptions to this rule, even for athletes who come close to medalling but finish just outside the podium.

While not all participants of the Olympics receive a medal, they all still have the opportunity to achieve their own personal goals and represent their countries with pride. Participating in the Olympic Games is an incredible accomplishment, and every athlete deserves to be celebrated for their hard work and dedication.
