Aage Rasmussen's fourth-place finish in the racewalk was Denmark's best athletics result in 1912.

The top four Danish cyclists had a combined time that placed them 8th of the 15 teams.

Ivan Osiier was the only Danish fencer to advance to the final in an event, eventually capturing the silver medal in the épée.

Six Danish gymnasts competed in the individual competition, with Arvor Hansen's 26th-place finish the best of the six.

(The scoring system was point-for-place in each of the five events, with the smallest point total winning.)

Denmark's debut was successful, especially in the coxed fours events, with the team winning a gold medal in the inriggers competition and a bronze in the outriggers.

Madsen and Niels Larsen took second and third, respectively, in the 300 metre free rifle from three positions to take the nation's only individual shooting medals in 1912; both were also on the six-man team which earned a bronze medal in the team rifle competition.

Ten tennis players, including one woman, represented Denmark at the 1912 Games.

Andersen, the middleweight, was not as successful as four years earlier; he lost his first two matches to be eliminated at 26th place.

There, he again faced Saarela; a second loss to the Finn put Jensen in a match against Olin.

The winner of this match would face Saarela in the final while the loser would take the bronze medal.
