Although this year's Olympics will be the first in history to feature gender equality in the composition of the sports field, the U.S. Olympic representation will once again be dominated by women: 314 women were on the team in addition to 278 male competitors.

This is the fourth time in a row that the country's Olympic Committee has sent more women than men to the Games.
