Patroclus fought with the Greeks in the Trojan War and killed Sarpedon and Cebriones. When Achilles refused to fight because of his feud with Agamemnon, Patroclus donned his armor and was killed by Hector. Achilles then organized an athletic competition to honour his dead friend, which included chariot racing (won by Diomedes), boxing (won by Epeius), wrestling (a draw between Ajax and Odysseus), a foot race (won by Odysseus), a duel (a draw between Ajax and Diomedes), a discus throw (won by Polypoetes), an archery contest (won by Meriones), and a javelin throw (won by Agamemnon, unopposed). The games are described in Book 23 of the Iliad, one of the earliest references to Greek sport.
