Growing trend of Olympics and Olympic London Tickets

Since 1992, about 60 athletes have competed for the United States after previously competing for another nation, but only since 2000 have foreign-born and trained athletes been contributing to the United States medal count. Hakeem Olajuwon, Nigerian born member of the 1996 United States men’s basketball team, was the only foreign-born athlete to win an Olympic medal for the United States in the 1990s.

This can affect the participation of United States-born athletes who are pushed out of competition by foreign-born athletes, and can force the United States born athletes to compete for other nations. However, foreign-born athletes can actually help the United States with sports in which they previously had trouble competing in, increasing the chance for US medals. Despite the large contribution many athletes are making to the United States Olympic team, most athletes say they would immigrate to the United States regardless of their status as athletes.
