Summary

Total score was the sum of the lifter's best result in each of the snatch and the clean and jerk, with three lifts allowed for each lift. In case of a tie, the lighter lifter won; if still tied, the lifter who took the fewest attempts to achieve the total score won. Lifters without a valid snatch score did not perform the clean and jerk. [2]

Maryna Shkermankova of Belarus originally won the bronze medal, but was disqualified in 2016 after a retest of her 2012 sample was positive for steroids, fourth-placed Dzina Sazanavets of Belarus was also disqualified for the same reason. [3] Roxana Cocoș of Romania originally won the silver medal, but was disqualified in 2020 after a failed retest of her sample from 2012 tested positive for doping. [4]
