The 2019 Pan American Games medal table is a list of National Olympic Committees (NOCs) ranked by the number of gold medals won by their athletes during the 2019 Pan American Games, held in Lima, Peru, from July 26 to August 11, 2019. Approximately 6,650 athletes from 41 NOCs will participate in 419 events in 39 sports.
The United States topped the medal count with 122 gold and 293 overall medals, its best result in the 21st century. Brazil pulled off its best performance in history, winning 54 gold and 169 overall medals, and finishing second in the standings. Mexico (37 golds) edged Canada (35), Argentina (33), and Cuba (33) in the battle for third place. The Canadians, however, won the most total medals among the three, 152. For Cuba, it was their worst result in terms of gold medals since 1971. For Chile, it was their best result in history in terms of gold and total medals.
The ranking in this table is based on information provided by Panam Sports and is consistent with the convention used in its published medal tables. By default, the table is ordered by the number of gold medals an athlete's nation has won (in this context, a "nation" is an entity represented by a National Olympic Committee). The number of silver medals is considered next, followed by the number of bronze medals. If nations are still tied, equal ranking is given, and they are listed alphabetically by IOC country code.
In badminton, boxing, judo, karate, racquetball, taekwondo, table tennis, and wrestling, two bronze medals will be awarded for each event. Also, in bowling, fencing, and squash, two bronze medals will be awarded in some events. Therefore, the total number of bronze medals will be greater than the total number of gold or silver medals. The following is the medal table maintained by the official website of the games.[1]
The British Virgin Islands won its first-ever gold medal and its first-ever Pan American Games medal after Chantel Malone won the women's long jump athletics event.[2] Aruba also earned its first medal in the history of the Pan American Games, a bronze medal won by sailor Mack van den Eerenbeemt in men's RS:X.[3][4] This means that all current participating countries have now won at least one medal.
Barbados, Bolivia, Grenada, and Paraguay also won their first-ever gold medals at the Pan American Games.[5][6][7][8]
