The official start list contains 175 athletes from 17 countries.[5] However, in the result lists, the announced 9 athletes from Guam did not appear, but only athletes from the following 16 countries:[2][3]
^ a Medals were not awarded to place-getters in events where insufficient competitors took part. Five events (Men: 3,000 metre Steeplechase, 4 × 400 metre Relay and Octathlon; Women: 10,000 metre and 4 × 100 metre Relay) had only three competitors,[6] and one event (Women's 4 × 400 metre Relay) had only two competitors.[6] As recorded in the list of medal winners on the official website,[7] those events with three competitors had no bronze medal awarded, and the event with two competitors had no silver or bronze awarded (note also: While the athletes' names on the official website's list of medal winners appear correct, their recorded nationalities are mismatched in some cases. e.g. New Caledonians are listed as from Federated States of Micronesia, Fijians are listed as from Niue).
