Hou Zhihui (Chinese: 侯志慧; pinyin: hóu zhìhuì; born 18 March 1997) is a Chinese weightlifter, Olympic champion, World champion, and two-time Asian champion competing in the women's 49 kg category.

As of 2021, she has set eleven senior world records throughout her career.

Career

She competed at the 2018 World Weightlifting Championships in the 49 kg division, winning silvers medals in all lifts, and setting two world records in the total.

In 2019 she competed at the 2019 IWF World Cup held in Fuzhou, China, in the 49 kg category. She swept gold medals in all lifts setting new world records in the snatch and total.

In 2021 at the 2020 Summer Olympics, she won China's second gold medal in women's 49 kg weightlifting, setting new Olympic records in the snatch, clean and jerk, and overall total, with 210 kilograms, which is three short of her world record from the 2020 Asian Weightlifting Championships.

False Slander

A false story from Asian News International claimed Zhihui was asked to stay in Tokyo for an extra anti-doping test "and that if she fails the test, India's Mirabai Chanu will be awarded gold". However the so-called extra test appeared to be complete fabrication as neither the World Anti-Doping Agency and the International Testing Agency (ITA) knew anything about it.
