Uzbekistan competed at the2012 Summer Olympics inLondon, from July 27 to August 12, 2012. This was the nation's fifth consecutive appearance at the Olympics. TheNational Olympic Committee of the Republic of Uzbekistan sent the nation's smallest delegation to the Games in the post-Soviet era. A total of 54 athletes, 36 men and 18 women, competed in 13 sports. There was only a single competitor in fencing, rhythmic and trampoline gymnastics, shooting and tennis.
Notable Uzbek athletes featured tennis playerDenis Istomin (ranked thirty-fourth in the world by theAssociation of Tennis Professionals), road cyclist and former world junior championSergey Lagutin, and sprint canoerVadim Menkov, who nearly missed out of the medal standings inBeijing. SprinterGuzal Khubbiyeva and trampoline gymnastEkaterina Khilko became the first Uzbek female athletes to compete in four Olympic games. Meanwhile, swimmersRanohon Amanova andYulduz Kuchkarova, both at age 18, were the youngest athletes of the team. Light heavyweight boxer and double Asian Games championElshod Rasulov was the nation's flag bearer at the opening ceremony.
Uzbekistan left London originally with four Olympic medals (one gold and three bronze), tying withSydney for the nation's overall medal standings. Freestyle wrestlerArtur Taymazov, who defended his super heavyweight title for the third time, became the most successful Uzbek athlete in history with a total of four Olympic medals. Another freestyle wrestlerSoslan Tigiev collected his second Olympic medal in the men's middleweight division, by winning an Olympic bronze medal. JudokaRishod Sobirov managed to repeat his bronze medal from Beijing. BoxerAbbos Atoev recaptured his nation's sporting success at these games, by winning an Olympic bronze medal after eight years.
On 7 November 2012, theInternational Olympic Committee strippedSoslan Tigiev of his bronze medal after testing positive for the prohibited substancemethylhexaneamine.[1] On 23 July 2019, theInternational Olympic Committee strippedArtur Taymazov of his gold medal after testing positive for the prohibited substance.[2] In 2020, after the disqualification of a number of athletes in a weightlifting men's 105 kg event, the bronze medal in this event was redistributed toIvan Efremov.
