Vladimír Andrs

Water and Boat Sports

Vladimír Andrs was a Czech rower, born in Prague on 12 May 1937, who died on 17 June 2018. He first came to international notice at the 1961 European Rowing Championships, where he took the silver medal in the single sculls, the boat in which one rower handles two oars alone. At the 1964 Summer Olympics he teamed up with his partner Pavel Hofmann to row the double sculls for Czechoslovakia, a boat of two scullers, and the pair won the bronze medal. The sources give a short record, built around that one European silver and that one Olympic bronze.
