The Sydney 2000 Games were the largest yet, with 10651 athletes completing in 300 events. Despite their size, they were well organized, renewing faith in the Olympic Movement. Birgit Fischer earned two gold medals in Kayak to become the first woman in any sport to win medals 20 years apart. Steven Redgrave became the first rower to win gold medals at five consecutive Olympics.
