Sándor Rozsnyói

Sándor Rozsnyói (born Sándor Rosner, 24 November 1930 – 2 September 2014) was a Hungarian athlete, who mainly competed in the 3,000-metre steeple chase.

Born in Zalaegerszeg, he competed for Hungary at the 1956 Summer Olympics held in Melbourne, Australia, where he won the silver medal in the men's 3000 m steeplechase.

Rozsnyói absconded from the plane on his return trip to Hungary and became a refugee in Vienna, Austria, as the Soviet Union had invaded Hungary. His wife managed to escape to Austria and reunite with him. After working in Vienna for 7 years, the family migrated to Sydney, Australia.

Rozsnyói lived for much of his life in Epping, NSW, with his wife and sons Alex and Les. He was a PE teacher with the NSW Department of Education.

In 2007, he was awarded the International Fair Play Award for the sportsmanship he displayed when he chose not to challenge the outcome of his 1956 Olympic Steeplechase race.
