The Games report refers to Corey as a "Frenchman wearing the colors of the Chicago Athletic Association".[3] Corey was a French immigrant to the United States, who lived in America and did not have the right papers. Previously the International Olympic Committee listed him as an American, due to insufficient or improper documentation at the time.[4] Currently IOC attributes his medal in the marathon to France[5] and the medal in the team race to a mixed team, not to the United States. In 2021, its identity is re-established by the Olympic Studies Centre, a division of the IOC.[6] In May 2021, following a book about Albert Corey,[7] the IOC officially recognizes the medal of the athlete to the male Marathon to the Olympic Games of 1904 as French.[8]
Competing for the First Regiment Athletic Association of Chicago on June 6, 1908, Corey finished ahead of Roy Kemper and teammate Alexander Thibeau to win the 15-mile St. Louis Marathon.[9]
