from July 26 to August 11, 2019. On June 19, 2019, wrestler Franklin Gómez was named as the country's flag bearer during the opening ceremony. The Puerto Rico team consisted of 244 athletes. Originally, Puerto Rico won the gold medal in bowling - men's doubles, though Jean Perez, a member of the bowling team, was tested positive for doping with chlorthalidone, a prohibited diuretic. The Panam Sports Disciplinary Commission announced this positive the day the Lima Games are closed, on 11 August 2019.
