There has been at least one tie for an Olympic gold medal. The 2000 Olympics, held in Sydney, Australia, had a tie in the men's 50M freestyle swimming event between Gary Hall, Jr. (USA) and Anthony Ervin (USA). Each swimmer had a time of 21.98 seconds, and each swimmer received a gold medal. There was no silver medal awarded for that event, only two gold and one bronze.
