Weightlifting at the 2012 Summer Olympics – Women's +75 kg
The Women's +75 kg weightlifting event at the 2012 Summer Olympics in London, United Kingdom, took place at ExCeL London.[1] SummaryTotal 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] Russia's Tatiana Kashirina set a world record in the snatch with a lift of 151kg, becoming the first woman to snatch 150kg, while China's Zhou Lulu set a world record in the total with 333kg, as well as an Olympic record in the clean and jerk with a lift of 187kg. Ukraine's Svitlana Cherniavska was on the start list but did not compete.[3] ScheduleAll times are British Summer Time (UTC+01:00)
