=== Tug of war === [[File:Tug of war.jpg|thumb|right|A combined Swedish/Danish team beats France for Gold in the tug of war]] {{Main|Tug of war at the 1900 Summer Olympics}} A combined Sweden/Denmark team, made up of three competitors from each country, defeated the French team to win the title. One of the members of the French team was a Colombian citizen. They were left as the only participating teams; the United States had entered but were forced to scratch as three of their team were involved in the final of the hammer. [[Edgar Aabye]] was a journalist covering the Games for the Danish newspaper [[Politiken]] and was asked to join the team when another puller was taken ill.
