Henckels lost a tie-breaker for 54th place in the ranking round, and drew a Taiwanese opponent in the first round. He led by three heading into the final six arrows, but a poor shot that scored only one point was enough to send him to a close defeat.
David Fiegen fell around a second short of qualifying from his opening round heat in the men's 800 metres.
In the men's road race, Kirchen and Schleck finished in the main peloton of 34 riders, with Kirchen finishing 3rd in that group and 6th overall. Benoît Joachim was the only entrant in the time trial, but finished well back.
Neither of the Luxembourger swimmers in Athens qualified for a semifinal, with the best finish being 27th from Alwin de Prins.
Anne Kremer and Claudine Schaul both lost their single matches in straight sets to higher ranking opponents, then paired up as a double team, and lost an upset to a wildcard entry from Colombia in three sets, including a tiebreak set and a 16 game final set.
Luxembourg again sent one triathlete to the Olympics. Elizabeth May finished 17th in the women's event.
