Womans Record Participation for 2008 Olympics

Olympics 2008 in Beijing has witnessed its most top notch mark for womans participation. This is significant achievement as compared to earlier records. Just see these figures.. Olympics in Rome 1960 with only 611 women participation, then in Sydney 2000 there were 4069 women and in Athens 4306. So its really a great jump over the years.

This year there were around 11,196 athletes out of which 4,746 were women athletes. Comparing to other competitors, European womens have bagged the most medals.
