Germany competed at the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo. Originally scheduled to take place from 24 July to 9 August 2020, the Games were postponed to 23 July to 8 August 2021, because of the COVID-19 pandemic.[1] It was the nation's eighth consecutive appearance at the Summer Olympic Games after its reunification in 1990.

Germany competed in all sports except artistic swimming, baseball, rugby sevens, softball and water polo.

Germany's medal total of 37 medals is the second lowest number won by Germany at a Summer Olympics post-reunification, only better than the performance in Paris 2024, where the country ended with 33 medal in total.

Track

[edit]

Following the completion of the 2020 UCI Track Cycling World Championships, German riders accumulated spots for both men and women in team sprint, team pursuit, and madison, as well as the men's omnium, based on their country's results in the final UCI Olympic rankings. As a result of their place in the men's and women's team sprint, Germany won its right to enter two riders in both men's and women's sprint and men's and women's keirin.

Deutscher Olympischer Sportbund (DOSB) announced the full track cycling squad, as part of the third batch of nominated German athletes, on 15 June 2021, with triple medalist Maximilian Levy racing along the sprint track in his fourth consecutive Games.[7]

Shooting

[edit]

German shooters achieved quota places for the following events by virtue of their best finishes at the 2018 ISSF World Championships, the 2019 ISSF World Cup series, European Championships or Games, and European Qualifying Tournament, as long as they obtained a minimum qualifying score (MQS) by 31 May 2020.[58]

The pistol shooters, led by the defending Olympic champion Christian Reitz (men's rapid fire pistol) and Rio 2016 silver medalist Monika Karsch (women's sport pistol), were named as part of the first batch of nominated German athletes for Tokyo 2020 on 19 May 2021.[57] Rifle markswoman Jolyn Beer, air pistol shooter Carina Wimmer, and trap shooter Andreas Löw, who earned a direct place as the highest-ranked shooter vying for qualification in the men's trap based on the ISSF World Olympic Rankings, joined the shooting squad on 15 June 2021.[7]

Swimming

[edit]

German swimmers further achieved qualifying standards in the following events (up to a maximum of 2 swimmers in each event at the Olympic Qualifying Time (OQT), and potentially 1 at the Olympic Selection Time (OST)):[64][65] Because of the consequent effects brought by the COVID-19 pandemic, the German Swimming Federation (German: Deutscher Schwimm-Verband, DSV) released a revised policy to select the country's best swimmers for the rescheduled Games: the top four of each individual event at the 2019 Worlds while also fulfilling the federation's mandated standards; those who attained the federation's qualifying standards between 1 January to 31 March 2020, and those who attained the federation's qualifying standards at an approved meet during the remaining time frame.[66]

Thirty swimmers (17 men and 13 women) were officially named to the German roster on 19 May 2021, including 2019 world champion Florian Wellbrock in both the men's long-distance freestyle and open water, 2015 world champion Marco Koch in the men's 200 m breaststroke, 2019 world silver medalist Sarah Köhler in the women's long-distance freestyle, and two-time Olympian Annika Bruhn in the women's sprint and middle-distance freestyle.[57]

Germany qualified three weightlifters for each of the following classes into the Olympic competition. Simon Brandhuber (men's 61 kg) and Rio 2016 Olympian Nico Müller secured one of the top eight slots each in their respective weight divisions based on the IWF Absolute World Ranking.[7] On 17 June 2021, International Weightlifting Federation banned Romania to compete at the Games because of multiple doping cases; therefore, Lisa Schweizer sealed the vacant berth as the next highest-ranked weightlifter vying for qualification in the women's 64 kg category.
