Tug of War was dropped after the 1920 Olympics. The IOC removed tug of war and 33 other sports because too many sports were part of the Olympics. It was an Olympic sport from 1900 until 1920. However, it's still a part of international competitions at the World Games and with the Tug of War International Federation.

Great Britain won the most amount of medals, two golds, two silvers and one bronze. The United States is next with one gold, one silver and one bronze.
