    Check the above link to know more about why two losing semifinalist get bronze medal....


  2. Boxing is the only sport in which both semi-finals losers get bronze medals without having to fight again.

    The other combat sports, Judo, Wrestling, and Taekwondo, also award two Bronze medals, but have a modified double elimination structure known as a Repechage.  The Gold and Silver medalists are determined by a single elimination tournament, but losers from the Quarterfinals, Semifinals, and in some cases, the Round of 16 compete in the Repechage to determine the Bronze Medalists.

  3. Is there such a scenario? I was thinking maybe if the 2 teams playing for 3rd place and both ended up as a draw then maybe both sides ended up with bronze. maybe sports involving points? like gymnastics, diving, synchronise swimming...
