United States at the 2019 Pan American Games

The United States competed in the 2019 Pan American Games in Lima, Peru from July 26 to August 11, 2019. The team included 313 men and 327 women.

The United States traditionally fielded its B or C teams in the most of sports. In basketball, the US men's team was made up of U20 Big East collegiate players, who were blown out by a senior professional Argentine team in the semi-final, but still managed to win bronze against the Dominican Republic.

The United States 4x100 mixed medley relay swimming team originally won the gold medal, however it was disqualified for two alleged breaststroke kicks off the turn. USA Swimming voiced their disagreement with the decision, but they were not allowed to appeal.

The United States topped the medal count with 122 gold and 293 overall medals, its best result in the 21st century.

There was considerable controversy in selecting the 2019 U.S. Pan American Games track and field team. USA Track and Field selection documents stated that athletes would be chosen based on top performances from 2019 only, but their initially announced team was selected by performances from both 2018 and 2019. USATF was sued by LetsRun.com and a selection of athletes who would have been on the team if not for the change of course. On 19 July, USA Track and Field was ordered by a U.S. court to re-select the team based on the 2019 comprehensive list.
