Sibel Özkan (born March 3, 1988, in Afyonkarahisar) is a Turkish weightlifter competing in the Women's 48 kg division.
She is 1.55 m tall and weighs 48 kg.
She was born on March 3, 1988, to Ramazan and his wife to Kezban in Kozluca village of Afyonkarahisar, Turkey as the youngest of three siblings.
As she was three years of age, her parents divorced.
Unable to look after her children, the mother placed Sİbel's brother Bülent, at that time four years old, and Özgür, who was five years old, into a children's dormitory in Afyonkarahisar.
However, Sibel had to be moved to another city, since the orphanage was only for boys.
She was put in a children's home in Konya.
Her mother Kezban Özkan died one year after she placed her children in orphanages.
Sibel's brothers joined her in the same orphanage in Konya two years later.
As she was 13 years of age, Sibel shifted to another orphanage in the same city.
There, she started to perform sports with judo.
However, her interest changed soon to weightlifting despite her brother's opposition.
She was trained by Süreyya Horasanlı and Sami Özsu, becoming successful at national and international championships in the 48 kg category.
Sibel is member of the weightlifting-specialized sports club of Kuyulusebil Halter İhtisas S.K. in Konya.
After finishing the high school at the age of 18, she attended Gaziosmanpaşa University in Tokat to study physical education and sports, where she is still a student.

She initially won the silver medal in the 48 kg event at the 2008 Summer Olympics, but in 2016 her result was annulled due to a doping violation upon reanalysis of samples from 2008.
After coming fourth in the snatch event at the 2007 World Weightlifting Championships - Women's 48 kg, she won her first Olympics silver medal in the Beijing Summer Olympics on August 9, 2008, held at the Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics Gymnasium coming second to the then winner of the 2007 World Weightlifting Championships - Women's 48 kg Xiexia Chen.
Sibel won the silver medal with 111.0 kg in the Clean and Jerk achieving 199.0 kg in total.
