List of 1900 Summer Olympics medal winners
The 1900 Summer Olympics, officially the Games of the II Olympiad, were an international multi-sport event which was held in 1900 in Paris, France. Gold medals were not given at the 1900 Games. A silver medal was given for a first place and a bronze medal was given for second. The International Olympic Committee has retroactively assigned gold, silver, and bronze medals to competitors who earned 1st, 2nd, and 3rd-place finishes respectively in order to bring early Olympics in line with current awards.[1]

- ↑ Brockmann was the coxswain for the Dutch team in the semifinal, but not in the final. He is considered a gold medallist by the IOC and is listed in that organization's medal database.
- ↑ Due to wrangling about who would be allowed to compete in the coxed four final, two finals were held for that competition. Both finals are considered Olympic championships by the International Olympic Committee.
- ↑ The German team changed the coxswain after the semi-final. Gustav Moths participated only in the semi-final and Max Ammermann participated in the final. However, the IOC medal database credits the bronze medal only to Gustav Moths.
- ↑ This is the roster of the German team as given by the International Olympic Committee database. Mallon notes that Petersdorff did not actually compete. He also claims that contemporary sources support a 4-person roster including Hoppenberg, Hainle, Gustav Lexau, and Ernest Luhrsen; Frey and Schöne are not included in either Mallon or de Wael's list of competitors in the event.
- ↑ Houben did not actually compete; however, he is listed in the IOC's medal database as part of the Neptune team.
- ↑ Mallon lists 5 players in addition to these 7 found in the IOC database. Sports-Reference explains that the official roster is likely wrong and that five of the medalists didn't compete, and the team that actually competed consisted of Coe, Kemp, Robert Crawshaw, William Henry, John Jarvis, Frederick Stapleton, and Victor Lindberg.
- ↑ Mallon lists 3 players in addition to these 7.
- ↑ Burgess was British, leading some sources (e.g., Sports-Reference) to consider this team a mixed team, but the IOC considers the medal to have been won by a French team.
- ↑ Listed in the IOC database as "Devenot", but almost certainly the same person who competed in swimming.
- ↑ Mallon lists 4 players in addition to these 7.
