Antonis Tsotras (Αντωνης Τσοτρας; born 9 May 1990) is a Greek sailor, who specialized in two-person keelboat (Star) class.[1] [2] He represented his nation Greece, along with his partner and five-time Olympian Aimilios Papathanasiou, at the 2012 Summer Olympics, and also obtained a top eight finish in two World Championships (2012 and 2014).[3] [4]
Tsotras qualified for the Greek sailing team in the Star class at the 2012 Summer Olympics in London by placing eighth and receiving a berth from his results at the World Championships in Hyères, France.[4] [5] Teaming with his partner and five-time Olympian Aimilios Papathanasiou in the opening series, the Greek duo started the race on a marvellous third-place effort, but fell short to fourteenth by a late caution with a net grade of 106.[6] [7]
