György Kozmann (born March 23, 1978 in Szekszárd) is a Hungarian sprint canoer who competed since the late 1990s. Competing in two Summer Olympics, he won two bronze medals in the C-2 1000 m event, earning them in 2004 and 2008. He has also won eleven medals at the ICF Canoe Sprint World Championships with five golds (C-2 500 m: 2007, C-2 1000 m: 2006, C-4 200 m: 2001, 2003, C-4 1000 m: 2001), two silvers (C-2 500 m: 2005, C-4 500 m: 2001), and four bronzes (C-2 500 m: 2006, C-2 1000 m: 2003, 2005; C-4 1000 m: 1999). From 2003 until 2008, he was the C-2 partner of György Kolonics. In the European championships Kozmann has been a gold medalist four times - C-4 500 m (2002), C-4 1000 m (2000 and 2002) and C-2 500 m (2004). After the death of Kolonics only weeks prior the 2008 Olympics to where the pair qualified for both the C-2 500 m and the C-2 1000 m events, Kozmann initially refused to take part in the games, but eventually changed his mind after consulting with his coach, friends and Kolonics's friends. He competed in the C-2 1000 m event with Tamás Kiss, and the pair finished on the third place in the C-2 1000 m final. He later received a Fair Play prize for this from the Hungarian Olympic Committee. Kozmann is a member of the Atomerőmű SE club and is coached by Attila Szabó. He is 179 cm (5'10") tall and weighs 83 kg (182 lbs). ==References== *(ICF medalists for Olympic and World Championships - Part 1: flatwater (now sprint): 1936-2007. ) *(ICF medalists for Olympic and World Championships - Part 2: rest of flatwater (now sprint) and remaining canoeing disciplines: 1936-2007. ) *(Sports-reference.com profile ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「György Kozmann」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
