Bangladesh has competed in every summer Olympic Games since 1984, but has never participated in the winter Olympics. Bangladesh competed as part of British India prior to 1947 and Pakistan prior to 1971. As of 2024, no athlete competing for Bangladesh has ever won an Olympic medal.
In 2016, Siddikur Rahman became the first Bangladeshi to qualify for the Olympic games in golf,[1] and Bangladesh sent seven athletes to compete, more than any other year. The country has sent other representatives to the Games by the wildcard process.[2] With an approximate population of 170 million, Bangladesh is the most populous country in the world that has never won an Olympic medal.[3]
In 2008, Bangladesh Olympic Association head Wali Ullah has stated that Bangladesh's weak economy and massive corruption accounts for its poor results in sports.[2]
