Iranian fencer Freydoun Malkom competed at the 1900 Summer Olympics in Paris, thereby making him the first Olympic athlete from Iran and the only one to compete for Qajar Iran. It would not be until Pahlavi Iran and the 1948 Summer Olympics that the nation sent a team to compete at the Olympic Games, where a weightlifting bronze for Jafar Salmasi would become Iran's first Olympic medal.
