National Federations all over the world have already named 90% of the field competing at the Rio Olympics 2016. There will be a total of 55 men and women and 98 athletes have been officially named by their federations (50 men, 48 women). It’s also important to remember that this isn’t the final start list, since countries can still switch their athletes to their alternates until a few days before the race.
