Template:Infobox Olympics Portugal

Portugal competed at the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, from 5 to 21 August 2016. Portuguese athletes had appeared in every edition of the Summer Olympic Games since the nation's debut in 1912. The Olympic Committee of Portugal was represented by a delegation of 92 athletes, 62 men and 30 women, across 16 sports. This was the nation's second largest ever Olympic delegation, only surpassed by the 107 athletes that competed at the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta, United States.[1]

Competitors

Athletics

Portuguese athletes achieved qualifying standards in several events (maximum of three athletes per event).[2][3] On May 31, 2016, the Portuguese Athletics Federation (FPA) named the first batch of track and road athletes, all competing in both marathon and race walking, to the Olympic roster, with João Vieira remarkably going to his fourth Games.[4] The final roster of 25 athletes (9 men and 16 women) was officially announced on July 12, 2016.[5] Eight days later, the Portuguese federation announced that Yazaldes Nascimento would be unable to participate in the men's 100 metres due to injury, which had already left him out of the delegation for the 2016 European Athletics Championships.[6][7]
