Cristian Mauro Soldano (born June 2, 1976) is an Argentine former swimmer, who specialized in breaststroke events.[1] He is a two-time semifinalist in the 100 m breaststroke at the Pan American Games (2003 and 2007).[2]
Soldano qualified for the men's 100 m breaststroke, as Argentina's oldest swimmer (aged 28), at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens. He cleared a FINA B-standard entry time of 1:03.63 from the Brazilian Championships in Rio de Janeiro.[3] [4] He challenged seven other swimmers on the fourth heat, including four-time Olympian Ratapong Sirisanont (Thailand), who was later disqualified for a false start. With only seven left in the pool, Soldano rounded out the field to last place in 1:05.05, more than one second off his entry time. Soldano failed to advance into the semifinals, as he placed forty-third overall on the first day of preliminaries.[5] [6]
