Medals

Kati Wilhelm was the most successful German participant in the 2002 Winter Games

The German team originally took first place in the medal table , but slipped to second place when, due to the disqualification of Johann Mühlegg , who started for Spain , Norway were subsequently awarded two more gold medals. Overall, Germany won more than any other country at the Winter Games with 36 medals.

The most successful German participant in the Salt Lake City Games was the biathlete Kati Wilhelm with two gold and one silver medal. The speed skater Claudia Pechstein achieved the third and fourth Olympic victory of her career (a fifth followed at the 2006 Winter Olympics ), making her Germany's most successful winter Olympic athlete of all time.
