The era of precision electroweak measurements at high energies started twenty years ago with the electron-positron colliders LEP and SLC. Excellent performance of accelerators, advanced detectors and precise theoretical predictions led to enormous progress in the examination of the Standard Model. Ongoing measurements at the Tevatron complement the precision results from LEP and SLC and allow a comprehensive test of the electroweak interactions. So far, the Standard Model has agreed well with the measurements and no significant deviation has been observed. But the Higgs boson, an important constituent of the Standard Model, has not yet been found but its mass is constrained by the high precision data. In this report an overview of the global electroweak tests of the Standard Model is presented. It includes the measurements, and their treatment to probe the Standard Model with highest precision. Finally, a short outlook to physics scenarios beyond the Standard Model is given.
