Slovakia competed in the 2012 Summer Olympics in London, from 27 July to 12 August 2012. This was the nation's fifth consecutive appearance at the Summer Olympics. The Slovak Olympic Committee sent a total of 47 athletes to the Games, 26 men and 21 women, to compete in 11 sports. There was only a single competitor in badminton, judo, triathlon, and weightlifting.
The Slovak team featured three defending Olympic champions from Beijing: slalom canoers Michal Martikán, and twins Pavol and Peter Hochschorner. Rifle shooter and double bronze medalist Jozef Gönci, who was the nation's flag bearer at the opening ceremony, competed at his sixth Olympics and was the oldest and most experienced athlete, at age 38. Meanwhile, medley swimmer Katarína Listopadová was the youngest member of the team, at age 19. Other notable Slovak athletes included road cyclist and world junior champion Peter Sagan, weightlifter and three-time Olympic veteran Martin Tešovič, and professional tennis player Daniela Hantuchová.
Slovakia left London with a total of four medals (one silver and three bronze), failing to win a gold for the first - and so far, only - time in Olympic history and in the post-Czechoslovak era. Among the nation's medalists were shooters Zuzana Štefečeková and Danka Barteková, who took silver and bronze medals in the women's trap and skeet events respectively. On 11 August 2012, Barteková was elected to the IOC Athletes Commission, along with three other athletes.[1] Meanwhile, Michal Martikán, who won bronze in London, became the most successful Slovak athlete in history with a total of five Olympic medals.
