Timor-Leste competed at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, China which was held from August 8 to August 24. The country's participation at Beijing marked its second appearance in the Summer Olympics since its debut in the 2004 Summer Olympics. The delegation included Augusto Ramos Soares and Mariana Diaz Ximenez, both of whom were marathoners that qualified via wildcard places as the nation had no athletes that met the "A" or "B" qualifying standards. Ximenez was selected as flag bearer for the opening ceremony. Neither of the two athletes finished their events; Soares did not even start. ==Background== Timor-Leste participated in two Summer Olympic games between its debut in the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens, Greece and the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Timor Leste )〕 The Timor-Leste National Olympic Committee (NOC) selected two athletes via wildcards. Usually, an NOC would be able to enter up to 3 qualified athletes in each individual event as long as each athlete met the "A" standard, or 1 athlete per event if they met the "B" standard. However, since Timor-Leste had no athletes that met either standard, they were allowed to select two athletes, one of each gender, as wildcards. The two athletes that were selected to compete in the Beijing games were Augusto Ramos Soares in the Men's marathon and Mariana Diaz Ximenez in the Women's marathon.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Timor Leste at the 2008 Beijing Summer Games )〕 Ximenez was flag bearer for the opening ceremony.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=LIST OF FLAGBEARERS BEJING 2008 )〕
