Argentina at the 2020 Summer Olympics
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Argentina competed at the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo, Japan. Originally scheduled to take place from 24 July to 9 August 2020, the Games were postponed to 23 July to 8 August 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[3] Since making its official debut at the 1900 Summer Olympics in Paris, Argentina has participated in every edition of the Summer Olympic Games, with the exceptions of 1904 in St. Louis, 1912 in Stockholm, and the 1980 Games in Moscow, which it boycotted in support of the United States-led boycott. At the Tokyo Games, Argentina failed to win a gold medal for the first time since the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney.

Seventeen-year-old Martina Dominici booked a spot in the women's individual all-around and apparatus events, by finishing seventh out of the twenty gymnasts eligible for qualification at the 2019 World Championships in Stuttgart, Germany.[28][29] On 23 June 2021, Dominici was reportedly tested positive for a banned substance, while deliberately waiting for the results of her appeal to compete at the Olympics; otherwise, her spot would be allocated to Abigail Magistrati, the nation's next highest-ranked gymnast at the 2019 World Championships.[30]
