1980 Winter Olympics medal table
This is the full medal table of the 1980 Winter Olympics, which were held in Lake Placid, New York, USA. These rankings sort by the number of gold medals earned by a country. The number of silvers is taken into consideration next and then the number of bronze. If, after the above, countries are still tied, equal ranking is given and they are listed alphabetically.
