Pavlo Illichov (Ukrainian: Павло Іллічов; born August 24, 1983) is a Ukrainian former swimmer, who specialized in backstroke events.[1] He won a silver medal in the 50 m backstroke at the 2001 European Junior Swimming Championships in Valletta, Malta (26.81).[2] Illichov is a member of the swimming team for Dynamo Odesa, and is trained by his longtime coach and mentor Alla Timofeyeva.
Illichov qualified only for the men's 4 × 100 m medley relay, as a member of the Ukrainian team, at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens.[3] Teaming with Oleg Lisogor (breaststroke), Andriy Serdinov (butterfly), and Yuriy Yegoshin (freestyle), Illichov led off a backstroke leg with a split of 56.19, but the Ukrainians settled only for sixth place in a final time of 3:36.87, six seconds off a new world record set by the winning U.S. team.[4] [5]
