The 2009 Commonwealth Weightlifting Championships in numbers

How close each class finished.

Winning margin in each class

The winner's total minus the runner-up's. The closest final: Women's 58 kg ended with gold and silver on the same total, decided by bodyweight, the lighter lifter ahead. The widest: Men's +105 kg by 61 kg. A short bar is a close final; a long one, a class the winner had to themselves.

Results by class

All competitions

Each class lists the place, the total and all six attempts. A struck-through weight is a missed attempt and a dash an attempt not taken. A dash in the place column means no total was recorded, most often after three misses in the snatch or in the clean and jerk. Where two lifters tie and the results cannot separate them, both are shown without a place.
