Winter Olympics appearances (overview)

Puerto Rico competed at the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, United States.

Bobsleigh

[edit]

The Bobsleigh team did not compete as one athlete (Michael Gonzales) did not meet Puerto Rico Olympic Committee rules about eligibility. After this, the Puerto Rico Olympic Committee withdrew the recognition of the Winter Sports Federation for the island, effectively ending any hopes for athletes competing at the Winter Olympics.[1]
