Uzbekistan 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, due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[3] It was the nation's seventh consecutive appearance at the Summer Olympics in the post-Soviet era.
Uzbekistan won five medals at these Games, down from 13 in 2016. However, the country won three gold medals, only one fewer than in Rio.
