Qatar - Profile
General Interest
Qatar first competed at the Olympic Games in 1984 in Los Angeles. There an all-male team of athletes competed in three sports, including the football tournament in which the team were eliminated in the group stage with a record of two losses and one draw.
It took until the 1992 Games in Barcelona for Qatar to win its first medal. It came in the men's 1500m when Mohamed Suleiman finished with the bronze medal. Suleiman would compete at four Olympic Games between 1988 and 2000, but would never better his performance from 1992.
Qatar's next medal came from Bulgarian-born weightlifter Saif Assad Assad who won bronze in the men's 105kg event at Sydney 2000.
Qatar won two medals, both bronze, at the London 2012 Olympic Games. The first was taken by Nasser Al Attiyah in the men's skeet shooting. A three-time Dakar Rally winner, Al Attiyah is perhaps better known for his motorsport exploits, but the 2016 Games in Rio were his sixth, and his sixth entry into the skeet shooting event.
Qatar's first female Olympians competed at the 2012 Games in London. After seven previous appearances with no women in its team, four women represented the NOC in London, all aged 20 or younger.
At the 2016 Games in Rio de Janeiro, Qatar won one silver medal in the men's high jump. It went to London 2012 bronze medallist Mutaz Essa Barshim, who became the NOC's first double Olympic medal winner.
