Hiroshi Suzuki is a retired Japanese freestyle swimmer, born on 18 September 1933. He competed in the 100 metre freestyle and the 4 x 200 metre relay at the 1952 and 1956 Olympic Games and won two silver medals at the 1952 Games in Helsinki. In the 1952 100 metre final he recorded the same time as the eventual gold medallist, Clarke Scholes of the United States, and the officials settled the placings by a judges decision, which gave Scholes the gold and Suzuki the silver.
