Cycling

Fencing
The United States first competed in fencing at the Olympics in the sport's second appearance. The nation sent two fencers.

Golf

Polo
The United States was one of four nations to compete in the first Olympic polo event. Americans played on two of the five teams, each time along with British companions. The two American/British combinations won the top two prizes.

Rowing
The United States had one boat at the debut of Olympic rowing; the Vesper Boat Club eight took gold.

Sailing
The United States had two boats in the first Olympic sailing competitions. MacHenry's Frimousse competed in both races of the 3–10 ton class as well as the open class, Taylor is listed as a crew member for the 3–10 ton races despite owning a different boat in the competition. The bronze medal in the second race is thus often listed as a mixed team medal, as Taylor was British/Australian. Another boat, Singy, competed in the open class with unknown crew. Harry Van Bergen won a bronze medal in the individual 20+ ton class.

Swimming
For the second Games, the United States had one swimmer compete and won no medals.

Tennis
The United States was one of four countries to compete in tennis in 1900. It was the nation's first appearance in the sport. Three men and two women competed. Marion Jones took bronze in the women's singles due to a first-round bye and a loss to gold medalist Cooper. The United States also had two medals—a silver and a bronze—as part of mixed teams.
