Bohumil Kudrna

Bohumil Kudrna (15 March 1920 to 11 February 1991) was a Czechoslovak canoeist who competed in both flatwater and slalom events in the late 1940s and the early 1950s. Paired with Jan Brzák-Felix in the C-2 1000 m event, he won Olympic gold in 1948 and silver in 1952, competing in two Summer Olympics. At the 1950 ICF Canoe Sprint World Championships in Copenhagen the pair took two further golds, in the C-2 1000 m and the C-2 10000 m. A year earlier, at the 1949 ICF Canoe Slalom World Championships in Geneva, Kudrna won a silver medal in the C-2 team event and a bronze medal in the C-2 event.
