2008 Summer Olympics medal table

The 2008 Summer Olympics, officially called the Games of the XXIX Olympiad, were held in Beijing, the capital of the People's Republic of China, from August 8 to August 24, 2008. About 10,942 athletes from 204 countries took part in 302 events across 28 sports. Two new events, cycling BMX racing and 10 km marathon swimming, were included for the first time ever.

Athletes from a record 87 countries won at least one medal, and 55 of those countries won at least one gold medal. Several countries won their first Olympic medals, including Afghanistan, Mauritius, Sudan, Tajikistan, and Togo. Mongolia and Panama won their first gold medals. Serbian swimmer Milorad Čavić won the first medal for Serbia as an independent country. Samoa got its first Olympic medal after the International Olympic Committee checked old doping samples again in 2016.

The host nation, China, won the most gold medals with 48, while athletes from the United States won the most medals overall, with 112. One standout athlete was American swimmer Michael Phelps, who won eight gold medals and eight total medals, breaking the record set by Mark Spitz for the most gold medals in a single Olympics.

The medal table shows which countries won the most medals during the 2008 Summer Olympics. Countries are ranked first by how many gold medals their athletes won, then by silver medals, and finally by bronze medals. If two countries have the same number of medals, they are listed alphabetically by their country code.

In some sports, such as boxing and judo, two athletes can win bronze medals instead of one. This happens because there is no final match to decide the bronze medalist. In the women's 100 metres running event, two athletes tied for second place, so they both received silver medals and no bronze medal was given.

Two athletes from Belarus, Vadim Devyatovskiy and Ivan Tsikhan, were found to have used a substance that wasn't allowed during their event, the men's hammer throw. Because of this, they lost their silver and bronze medals in December 2008. Later, their medals were given back because the tests weren't done properly.

Athletes from Hungary and Japan were given the medals for a short time, but then the original athletes got them back.

However, at the medal ceremony he walked off the podium and dropped his medal on the mat in protest against the judging in his event. On 16 August 2008, the IOC decided to strip Abrahamian of his medal because they felt it amounted to a political demonstration and was disrespectful to other athletes. As there was already one other bronze medalist in this event, Abrahamian's medal was not reallocated.

Nine years later, on 24 April 2017, Chernova was disqualified and stripped of the bronze medal after a retest of her sample showed that she had used turinabol. The bronze medal was then re-allocated to Great Britain's Kelly Sotherton (see below).
