Denys Vitaliovich Dubrov (Ukrainian: Денис Віталійович Дубров, born 10 January 1989) is a swimmer from Ukraine. A former member of the able-bodied Ukrainian National team, he now competes in Paralympic S10 and SM10 (individual medley) events.[1] At the 2016 Rio Paralympics he won three gold, three silver and two bronze medals, setting worlds record in the Men's SM10 200 m individual medley [2][3] and S10 100m butterfly events.[4] As of April 2017, he still holds the able-bodied Ukrainian National Record in the 200 m individual medley, a time of 2:00.53 which he set in 2009.[5]

Career history[]

Dubrov began swimming as a youth and by 2001 was being coached by Svetlana Toloknyanik at the Invasport club in his home town of Dnipropetrovsk. He won a bronze medal in the 200 m individual medley at the 2006 FINA Youth World Swimming Championships and represented Ukraine at the 2009 World Aquatics Championships, competing in the heats of the 100 m butterfly, 200 m butterfly, 200 m individual medley and 4 x 100 m medley relay.[6][7][8][9]

Dubrov came to international attention when he competed at the 2014 IPC Swimming European Championships in Eindhoven, where he won three medals, including gold in the SM10 200m individual medley[10]

The following year Dubrov represented Ukraine again, this time at the 2015 IPC Swimming World Championships in Glasgow. There he entered five events, winning medals in three. He took a bronze as part of the 4 × 100 m medley relay and won individual gold in both the 100 m butterfly and 200 m medley. As well as becoming world champion in two events, he broke the European record in both, with times of 56.43 in the butterfly and 2:11.94 in the individual medley.[11][12]
