Description
The National Olympic Committee of Thailand was formed on 20 June 1948 and recognized by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) on 15 May 1950 at the IOC session in København. Competing in the Olympics since 1952, Thailand has missed only the 1980 Moscow Olympics. It has twice competed in the Olympic Winter Games. Thai athletes have won 24 Olympic medals: seven gold, six silver and eleven bronze. Although Thai boxing is not an Olympic sport, “normal” boxing has been the top sport for Thai Olympians, who collected a total of 14 medals in the sport. In recent Games, female weightlifters from Thailand have won seven medals (including three gold) and female taekwondo practitioners also won three medals. The most successful athlete is the boxer Manus Boonjumnong who won gold in the light-welterweight class in 2004 and silver four years later in the same weight class in 2008.
