Puerto Rico at the 2019 Pan American Games
Sporting event delegation
Puerto Rico competed in the 2019 Pan American Games which took place in Lima , Peru from July 26 to August 11, 2019.[ 1] [ 2]
On June 19, 2019, wrestler Franklin Gómez was named as the country's flag bearer during the opening ceremony .[ 3]
The Puerto Rico team consisted of 244 athletes.[citation needed ]
Originally, Puerto Rico won the gold medal in bowling - men's doubles, though Jean Perez, a member of the bowling team, was tested positive for doping with chlorthalidone, a prohibited diuretic. The Panam Sports Disciplinary Commission announced this positive the day the Lima Games are closed, on 11 August 2019. As a consequence, the Puerto Rican duo loses gold, which passes to the United States. Colombia gets the silver and the bronze goes to the Mexico team.
