Arlene Limas - in 1988, there were 16 gold medals in Taekwondo. Ten medals went to South Korea, 3 went to the United States, 2 went to Taiwan and 1 went to Denmark. Arlene Limas (welter weight) won her match on September 17, 1988. Her team mates Lynnette Love (heavy weight), Dana Hee (light weight), Jimmy Kim (heavyweight), also brought home gold medals.

In 1992, Herbert Perez (heavyweight) brought home a gold medal for TeamUSA.

In 2000, Steven Lopez (lightweight) brought home a gold medal for TeamUSA. This was the first gold medal awarded in taekwondo since it was made an official medal sport of the Olympics. Previous medal winners competed in taekwondo as a demonstrations sport.

In 2004, Steven Lopez (middleweight) brought home a gold medal for TeamUSA.

In 2008, no one brought home a gold medal for TeamUSA.

So, all together, TeamUSA has brought home seven gold medals.
