The London Olympics: The Year of the Woman? It’s True for Americans
A first for the Olympics, every country that sent a delegation to the London Games sent at least one female athlete.
In this year’s Team USA, there are more female athletes than male participants, and the women have taken home 100 total medals, compared to 59 for the men, according to my tally.
So it appears that these Olympics, especially for the United States, is the Year of the Woman.
A quick peek at the medals board reveals that Missy Franklin and Allison Schmitt outscored Ryan Lochte, the other American swimming star who currently leads the standings with six medals (four gold). All three of those swimmers have collected five medals, although Franklin and Allison have the most golds with four to Lochte’s two.

After being named to the Saudi Arabian Olympic Committee’s team before the July 9 deadline.
The International Olympic Committee had extended an invitation to them to participate (IOC).
IOC President Jacques Rogge said in a statement on Thursday, “This is really excellent news, and we will be thrilled to welcome these two athletes in London in a few weeks.”
After Qatar and Brunei, the other two countries who did not send a woman to the 2008 Beijing Olympics.
Said they would adhere to the IOC’s goal to eradicate sexual discrimination among its member nations, the devout Muslim nation had been the last holdout of male-only teams.
Conclusion

Boxing has never been done at the Olympics. Never before will there be at least one female athlete from each competing nation. And never before have female athletes competed for so many medals.
