In the Olympics, and usually only in the Olympics, the three who tie for first get the gold, and no silver or bronze are handed out.The hard part is determining who gets to keep the gold medal being handed out during the medal ceremony, since only 1 gold medal will have been made for the event at the time. Of the three who tie, only 1 person gets the medal right away, the other 2 have to wait for medals to be manufactured for them
However, in other competitions outside of the Olympics, depending on the sport, they look back at other rounds and have a way of scoring points to determine the who gets gold, silver, and bronze
Is anybody that's reading this ever competed at the Olympics or been close to making the team?
Well, the three tie people would get the Gold for sure and the rest will receive Silver and Bronze respectively. However, considering the tie situation, it's quite unlikely to happen like the you've just said though, because in each "Sprint competition" competitors are always kept at so close look through modern technology that their speed is determined by a split second factor.In this situation, each of the runners would obviously be little faster or slower than each other while their speed is being determined by a spit second factor.You could be slower than me just by .1012 seconds (a fraction of Seconds are calculated ) although we both are in the same speed and are about to touch the finishing line almost together. That's how they decide. Anyway, good question.Large companies now sponsor major sporting events and teams. Can this sportmanship lead to problems?
in this situation silver and bronze are not awarded.This is probably not going to happen with today's computer timing but if it did the three first place finishers would all get a gold medal and no other medals would be awarded.
Does anyone have a training progamme for 100m sprinting from an elite athlete?
I answered this question previously. With today's equipment (computers and cameras) there can be no ties in track because this equipment can trace down to the thousandths of a second. Now in field events that is another story. Even though everything is done to prevent tie it still can happen.Which countries mostly watch which sports during the summer and winter Olympic games?
If I'm not mistaken, like in horse-racing, they have the fast-cam play at regular speed (which turns out to be very slow-motion in the screen). It shows all players very clearly through their sprints without a haze and pauses as each player hits the line. The first to have anything on his body touch the finish line wins gold, second silver and third bronz. There has never been a case where all three hit the finish at the same milli-microsecond.This is implemented in regular races.
