Most sprints won

One tournament

Pietro Figlioli, representing Australia then Italy, was the (joint) top sprinter in 2004, 2008 and 2012.

The following table is pre-sorted by number of sprints won (in descending order), edition of the Olympics (in ascending order), number of sprints contested (in ascending order), name of the player (in ascending order), respectively. Last updated: 15 May 2021.

Sprinters are usually the fastest swimmers of the water polo team. If a water polo player won an Olympic medal in swimming, he would be an outstanding sprinter.

Brad Schumacher is the latest example. He won two gold medals for the United States at the 1996 Atlanta Olympics: in the men's 4×100 meter freestyle relay and men's 4×200 meter freestyle relay. ^[1] At the 2000 Sydney Olympics, he was the top sprinter of the men's water polo tournament, with 20 sprints won.

Since 2000, four male players have won 20 or more sprints in an Olympic water polo tournament.

Pietro Figlioli is the first and only water polo player to achieve this feat twice. At the 2004 Summer Olympics, Figlioli won 24 sprints for Australia, setting the record for the most sprints won by a water polo player in a single Olympic tournament. Four years later, he won 21 sprints in Beijing.

At the 2004 Athens Olympics, Sergey Garbuzov won 20 sprints, helping Russia win bronze. He is the most efficient one among these three sprinters.

Notes

1. After the breakup of Yugoslavia, FR Yugoslavia men's national water polo team participated at the 1996 and 2000 Olympics, and won a bronze medal in 2000. In 2003, after the country was renamed from FR Yugoslavia to Serbia and Montenegro, the team was also renamed to "Serbia and Montenegro men's national water polo team".
