According to the Comité Olímpico de Chile, Luis Subercaseaux Errázuriz competed at the age of 13-14 in the 100, 400 and 800 metres. Many Olympic historians dispute this claim and maintain that, although he was entered in these events, he did not take part in any race. The International Olympic Committee website lists him as a non-starter in the 100 metres and the 800 metres, and does not list him in the 400 metres.
