History

Main article: Singapore at the Olympics

Singapore debuted in the Olympics as a British colony in 1948 when a sole representative, Lloyd Valberg, competed in the men's high jump; Valberg gained 14th place. Since then, Singapore has taken part in every Olympics edition except the 1980 Summer Olympics, when the country was one of many to boycott the event. In the 1960 Summer Olympics, Tan Howe Liang gained silver in the Men's 67.5 kg event in weightlifting despite feeling intense pain in his legs before the final lift. The next medal Singapore gained was in the 2008 Summer Olympics: Feng Tianwei, Li Jiawei, and Wang Yuegu gained a silver medal in the Women's team event in table tennis. Four years later, the same trio gained bronze in the same event. Feng, at the same edition, gained bronze in Women's singles. In the 2016 Summer Olympics, Joseph Schooling won a gold medal when he succeeded in the Men's 100 meter butterfly. This result beat Michael Phelps' Olympic record in the event. In the 2024 Summer Olympics, Max Maeder won bronze in the Men's Formula Kite in sailing.
