2017 Asian Winter Games medal table

The 2017 Asian Winter Games, officially known as the 8th Asian Winter Games, were an international multi-sport event held in Sapporo, Japan, from 19 to 26 February 2017, with some preliminary events in curling and ice hockey beginning the day before the 19th. The games were originally scheduled for 2015 but were moved to the year before the 2018 Winter Olympics. A total of 1,147 athletes representing 32 National Olympic Committees (NOCs) participated, surpassing the previous record high of 26 NOCs set at the previous games in Astana and Almaty, Kazakhstan. Indonesia, Sri Lanka, Timor-Leste, Turkmenistan and Vietnam made their Asian Winter Games debut, with Australia and New Zealand competing as guest competitors, and therefore ineligible to win medals. The games featured 64 events in 11 sports, with bandy and ski orienteering being removed.

Overall, athletes representing five NOCs won at least one medal, and four NOCs won at least one gold medal. Host nation Japan won the most gold and the most overall medals, with 27 and 74 respectively. Biathlete Galina Vishnevskaya of Kazakhstan, cross-country skier Yuki Kobayashi of Japan, and speed skater Lee Seung-hoon of South Korea tied for the most gold medals won by an individual at the games, with four each. Alongside them, biathlete Yan Savitskiy of Kazakhstan, cross-country skier Akira Lenting of Japan, short track speed skater Choi Min-jeong of South Korea, and speed skaters Miho Takagi of Japan and Kim Bo-reum of South Korea, tied for the most overall medals won by an individual at the games, with four each.
