Aleksei Aleksandrovich Petrov
About
Aleksei Aleksandrovich Petrov (Russian: Алексей Александрович Петров; born 8 September 1974) is a retired Russian weightlifter. He had his peak performance in 1994, when he won the European and world titles and set four world records: one in the snatch, two in the clean and jerk, and one in the total. In 1996, he won gold in the 91 kg (201 lb) class at the 1996 Olympics and set his second world record in the snatch. At the 2000 Olympics he finished third in the 94 kg (207 lb) class. His last international success was a European gold achieved in 2002. The Russian Olympic Committee selected younger competitors in favor of Petrov for the 2004 Olympics, partly because of his injuries, excessive weight, and a failed drug test. Meanwhile, his season best was 10 kg (22 lb) higher than the gold medal result at those Olympics.
