Mexico has qualified four triathletes for the following Olympic events: Mexican weightlifters qualified for two women's and two men's Olympic quota spots based on their combined team placement in the global rankings. The rest of Mexico's triathlon competitors will be selected by a national selection process that begins in November 2013 and ends in March 2014. There is no indication who may get those spots not filled by the athletes who have qualified. In 2012, Mexico had one female triathlete qualify for the Olympics. She placed 32nd out of 53 swimmers in the women's race. It was the best performance by a Mexican swimmer at an Olympic event. Mexico has never won an Olympic medal in this sport.
