  2. ^   Ibragim Samadov (EUN) originally won the bronze medal, but he was disqualified and banned for life after he dropped his medal onto the podium and stormed out of the medal ceremony. The IOC decided not to award the medal to fourth-place finisher   Jon Chol-ho (PRK), as Samadov's offence had not been committed in the context of the competition.
