This year’s Team USA roster will feature a handful of notable faces like Simone Biles, Kevin Durant and Katie Ledecky. But there are new competitors who will take the national spotlight and a handful of new sports for fans to tune into.

The United States Olympic Team for the Tokyo Games will be the country's second-largest ever. In total, 613 athletes were named to the team, though the team could ultimately expand to as many as 627 athletes by the end of the Games due to rules that allow countries to sub in alternates for several team events. Notably, the US team will break the record for most women to represent a nation at a single Olympic Games.

Over the last several months, athletes have been named to the team as they secured their spots through either selection or direct qualification. Some athletes automatically earned spots once the qualification period for their sport officially ended, but many others needed to compete at US Olympic Trials to earn their places.

Here’s who is representing the Stars and Stripes in this year’s Games.
