As no Malian teams qualified for the team events, Mali sent its smallest delegation to the Games after the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney. Six Malian athletes, 4 men and 2 women, were selected to the team to compete in 4 sports. Hurdler Rahamatou Drame, who competed at her first Olympic games, was the nation's flag bearer at the opening ceremony.

Mali, however, has yet to win its first ever Olympic medal. Taekwondo jin and double-time world heavyweight champion Daba Modibo Keita missed out of the nation's historic Olympic record, after he withdrew from the bronze medal tournament because of the injuries he had sustained.
