Brazil 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.^[3] It was the nation's twenty-third appearance at the Summer Olympics, having competed in all editions of the modern era from 1920 onwards, except the 1928 Summer Olympics in Amsterdam.

Tied with 2016 games in number of gold medals (7) and silver medals (6) but with 2 more bronze medals (8), this was the nation's most successful overall performance at the Olympics, therefore becoming the second nation to surpass its medal total at the Olympics immediately following one that it hosted (the other one was Great Britain in the 2016 Olympics). The country broke the record for medals in one edition (21) and was also in the highest position on medal table on games history (12th place). It was also the edition of the Games where Brazil won medals in more different disciplines.^[4]

In this edition, Brazil won its first medals ever in three sports: Tennis (with the bronze medal obtained by the double Laura Pigossi and Luisa Stefani) and the debutants Skateboarding (the 3 silver medals won by Kelvin Hoefler, Rayssa Leal and Pedro Barros) and Surfing (the gold medal achieved by Ítalo Ferreira). Brazil also won its first gold medals ever in Surfing, conquered by Ítalo Ferreira, and Canoeing, won by Isaquias Queiroz.

Summary[]

The first Brazilian medal in Tokyo was won by skateboarder Kelvin Hoefler in men's street with a score of 36.15 in the first Olympic competition in the sport's history. Japanese skateboarder star Yuto Horigome claimed the first Olympic gold medal with a score of 37.18 and American Jagger Eaton scored a 35.35, winning the bronze medal.^[5]

The second medal in Skateboarding, was conquered by the 13-year-old Rayssa Leal in the Olympics's inaugural women's skateboarding competition: the Women's street, one day after the men's street. The board flips, slides and grinds of Brazil's youngest-ever medalist drew as much acclaim as she won the silver medal with a score of 14.64, below the gold medalist Japanese Momiji Nishiya with 15,26. Leal was the youngest athlete to win an Olympic medal since the 1936 Olympic Games and to date among the 10 youngest Olympic medalists ever.^[6]

The third medal in Skateboarding was achieved in the inaugural Olympic men's park by Pedro Barros. With a score of 86,14, he won the silver medal, below Australian Keegan Palmer , with a score of 95.83.^[7]

In the judo competition, two bronze medals were achieved. In the men's 66 kg competition, Daniel Cargnin lost the semifinal to Japanese gold medalist Hifumi Abe and defeated Israeli Baruch Shmailov in the bronze medal dispute. Twice world champion Mayra Aguiar won one of the bronze medals in the women's 78 kg category, after defeating in bronze medal dispute South Korean Yoon Hyun-ji; she made History conquering three consecutive bronze medals in London/2012, Rio/2016 and Tokyo/2020. She is the first Brazilian woman to win three Olympic medals in an individual sport.^[8]

The first gold medal won by Brazil in Tokyo was in Surfing, in the debut of the sport at the Olympic Games.Ítalo Ferreira earned the first-ever gold after running away from Japanese Kanoa Igarashi in an electric final. The 2019 ISA World Surfing Games Champion recovered from snapping his board early-on and posted wave high scores of 7.77 and a 7.37 for a combined 15.14, while Kanoa Igarashi counted a 3.83 and a 2.77, combining for a 6.60.^[9]

In the swimming competitions, three medals were earned, two bronze and one gold medal. Fernando Scheffer won the bronze medal in men's 200 m freestyle, with a time of 1m44s66, behind Britishers silver medalist Duncan Scott (1m44s26) and gold medalist Tom Dean (1m44s22).^[10] Bruno Fratus won the bronze medal in men's 50 m freestyle, with a time of 21s57, behind silver medalist Florent Manaudou and gold medalist Caeleb Dressel. Though Fratus had a decorated career at the World Championships, Pan Pacific, and Pan American Games, he finally won an Olympic medal. Fratus became with 32-years-old also the oldest pool swimmer in history to win their first Olympic medal.^[11]

The marathon-swimmer Ana Marcela Cunha was the gold medalist in women's marathon of 10 km, won with a time of 1:59:30.8, becoming the first Brazilian woman swimmer to win a gold medal in the Olympics. Former Olympic gold medalist Sharon van Rouwendaal of the Netherlands finished second, with Kareena Lee of Australia taking the bronze. Cunha has obtained, until 2019, 11 medals in World Swimming Championships, 5 being gold, but this was the first Olympic medal in her career.^[12]

In Artistic Gymnastic, Rebeca Andrade won two medals. In the qualification round, Andrade had one of the best performances of her career, qualifying in third to the vault final, fourth to floor exercise final, and second to the all-around final. After leading the competition in the first two rotations of the women's all-around final, Andrade won silver medal with a final score of 57.298 after stepping out of bounds on two of her floor passes. American Sunisa Lee won gold with a score of 57.433. This marked the first-ever Olympic medal win for a female Brazilian artistic gymnast and the first Olympic all-around medalist who qualified as an individual.^[13]

In the final of Women's vault, Rebeca Andrade setted another record for her country, surpassing her third-place vault final qualification to win the event with an average score of 15.083. This made her the first Olympic champion in Brazilian women's artistic gymnastics history and also the first Brazil woman to win more than one medal in a single edition of the Olympic Games.^[14] Andrade also served as a flag bearer for Brazil at the Games' closing ceremony.

In the women's doubles tennis tournament, Laura Pigossi and Luisa Stefani earned the bronze medal. They defeated Russians Veronika Kudermetova and defending gold medallist Elena Vesnina in the bronze medal match by 2 sets to 1, saving four straight match points before overcoming in the final set. The medal was one of the most unexpected: the Brazilians got an Olympic spot just one week before the 2020 Games opening, with Luísa Stefani ranked No. 23 in the doubles ranking and Pigossi only at No. 190. Although the Brazilian pair played together for the first time, during the campaign they managed to save eight match-points. In addition to the four in the bronze medal match, they saved another four in the match against Czech duo Karolina Pliskova and Marketa Vondrousova in the round of 16. Pigossi and Stefani became the first Brazilians to obtain an Olympic medal in tennis in history.^[15]

Two bronze medals were conquered in athletics. After an Olympic cycle much lower than expected, without medals in World Championships and even in Pan American Games between 2016 and 2020, Olympic record holder and gold medalist in Rio/2016, Thiago Braz participates in men's pole vault in Tokyo/2020 again without being the favorite; in the final he jumped 5.87 m and secured bronze medal, behind the world record holder Swede Armand Duplantis who got gold medal with 6.02 m and the American Chris Nilsen, with 5.97 m got the silver medal. Braz finished with his second consecutive Olympic medal, a very rare feat in Brazilian athletics.^[16][17]

Alison dos Santos got the bronze medal inmen's 400 metres hurdles, in what has been described as one of the greatest races in Olympic history; Karsten Warholm of Norway won, setting a new world record of 45.94 seconds. He beat his own previous record, set a month before, by 0.76 seconds; silver medalist Rai Benjamin of the United States beat the previous record by 0.53 seconds. The event was the strongest in 400m hurdles history, with the three Olympic medalists getting the three best times in the history of the event, all beating Kevin Young's old world record (which had lasted almost 30 years and had only fallen a month before the Olympics). Alison became the 3rd best in the history of the race, with a time of 46.72 seconds.^[18]

Martine Grael and Kahena Kunze sailed to gold after winning the women's 49erFX competition. They came in third in the medal race scoring 6 points which bring them a total of 76 points to win the top podium. Germany's Tina Lutz and Susann Beucke clinched silver with a total score of 83 and double world champions Annemiek Bekkering and Annette Duetz from the Netherlands picked up bronze after amassing 88 points. This was the Brazilian duo's second gold medal in the same event after winning in Rio/2016.^[19] Martine Grael continued the tradition of her family in sailing: her father Torben Grael is five-time Olympic medalist (twice gold) and her uncle Lars Grael is a twice bronze medalist.

In the Canoeing, The reigning World Champion Isaquias Queiroz and silver medallist in Rio/2016, finished with a time of four minutes, 04.408 seconds, ahead of China's Liu Hao and Moldova's Serghei Tarnovschi for his maiden Olympic title. He become the first Brazilian to win an Olympic gold meadal in Canoeing and it was also the fourth Olympic medal in his career. Isaquias had been through adversity in his younger years. As a toddler he poured boiling water on himself and spent a month in hospital recovering, at the age of 5 he was kidnapped and offered up for adoption before being rescued by his mother, and 5 years later he fell out of a tree while trying to catch a snake and lost a kidney.^[20][21]

In the boxing competitions, Brazilians earned three Olympic medals. Abner Teixeira lost the semifinal to Cuban Julio César La Cruz in men's heavyweight and was awarded a bronze medal.^[22] Reigning world champion Beatriz Ferreira was the silver medalist in women's lightweight in Boxing. She lost the final to Kellie Harrington from Ireland in a unanimous decision. This is the best result achieved by a Brazilian woman in Boxing at Olympic Games.^[23]

Hebert Conceição won the gold medal in the men's middleweight event at the 2020 Summer Olympics in one of the most shocking fights in Tokyo, by knocking out Ukrainian Oleksandr Khyzhniak in the third round . Khyzhniak had spent the fight's first 7+1⁄2 minutes smacking Conceição around the ring with his vicious combination of power and accuracy and won the first two rounds unanimously. In the third and final round, the Brazilian caught Khyzhniak with a counter left hook during an exchange, and Khyzhniak went to the canvas hard. The referee declared Hebert Conceição winner by knock out . He joins lightweight Robson Conceição as the only boxing gold medalists in Brazil's Olympic history.^[24][25]

The seventh gold medal earned by Brazil in Tokyo was awarded in men's football tournament. The incumbent gold medalists in Rio/2016 finished at the top of their group with 7 points, following a 4–2 win over Germany, a 0–0 draw to Ivory Coast and a 3–1 win over Saudi Arabia. They beat Egypt 1–0 in the quarter-finals, and Mexico in the semi-finals with a 4–1 victory in the penalty shootouts following a 0–0 draw in extra time. In the final against Spain, Matheus Cunha opened the score for Brazil in the first half and a Mikel Oyarzabal goal in the second half forced the match into extra time; Malcom scored the winning goal in the 108th minute, which lead Brazil to their second Olympic gold medal and seventh medal in men's football at Olympic Games. Brazil became the fifth country to win back-to-back Olympic golds, after Great Britain (1908, 1912), Uruguay(1924, 1928), Hungary (1964, 1968) and Argentina (2004, 2008). Among the players, Daniel Alves was Brazil's 38-year-old captain, who had led the team as an over-age player and became the most decorated football player with his personal trophy haul to 43 titles.^[26][27][28]

In the Volleyball competitions, the last Brazilian medal of 2020 Summer Olympics was a silver one achieved by Brazil women's national volleyball team. The team went undefeated in the pool round and in the bracket leading up to the final after winning 7 matches, but lost easily by 3 sets to 0 (25–21, 25–20, 25–14) to United States women's national volleyball team, who won its first gold medal in women's volleyball.^[29] Nonetheless the silver medal in women's volleyball, Brazil had the poorest campaign in the sport since the 1992 Summer Olympics, with a fourth place in men's tournament and missing a medal in beach volleyball for the first time since the inaugural tournament in 1996 Summer Olympics.^[30]
