MEDAL TABLE MEDAL SUMMARY EVENTS Jumping The jumping event in 1900 was similar to the modern event. The course was 850 metres long with 22 jumps, including a double jump and a triple jump as well as a 4-metre water jump. 45 competitors entered, though only 37 competed. Some information is known on 10 of the competitors, though of the rest all that can be deduced from the nationalities of the entrants is that, of the remaining unknowns that did compete, at most 1 was a Russian, up to 3 were Italian, at least 3 and up to 9 were Belgian, and between 14 and 20 were French. High jump 18 competitors entered the high jump, though only five are known by name. Of the remaining 13, 6 were French, 3 Belgian, 1 Russian, and 3 Italian. Long jump 17 competitors entered the long jump. Six are known by name. Of the rest, 7 were French and 2 Belgian. NON-OLYMPIC EVENTS Mallon and de Wael have both included these events in their Olympic lists; however, those lists were created before the International Olympic Committee had made a decisive ruling on which events and sports at the 1900 and 1904 Summer Olympics were truly Olympic. The IOC does not list the winners of the hacks and hunter combined event or the mail coach event as medallists in its results database. Hacks and hunter combined It is unknown how many riders competed in the hacks and hunter combined. The top four placers are known, as are eight more riders who also competed (including one woman). As an upper limit, 50 men and 1 woman are listed as entrants in the Official Report, but it is almost certain that not all actually competed. Mail coach 31 entrants are listed for the mail coach event; all 29 of the riders are known by name (2 entered twice each). Beyond the top four competitors, it is unknown how many of the 31 entrants actually competed. NOTES REFERENCES
