Syria competed at the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo. Originally scheduled to take place from 24 July to 9 August 2020, the Games were postponed to 23 July to 8 August 2021, because of the COVID-19 pandemic.[1] It was the nation's fourteenth appearance at the Summer Olympics since its debut in 1948.
The Syrian Olympic Committee sent a team of six athletes, five men and one woman, to compete in six different sports at the Games, matching the nation's roster size with Athens 2004. Thanks to Man Asaad, Syria won its first Olympic medal since the 2004 Olympics.[2]
