Oleg Pukhnatiy (Template:Lang-uz; born June 10, 1975) is an Uzbek former swimmer, who specialized in freestyle and individual medley events.[1] He is a three-time Olympian (1996, 2000, and 2004), and a top 16 finalist at the 2002 Asian Games in Busan, South Korea.[2]

Pukhnatiy made his first Uzbek team at the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta. There, he failed to reach the top 16 final in the 200 m individual medley, finishing in twenty-fourth place with a time of 2:06.39.[3] He also placed seventeenth, as a member of the Uzbekistan team, in the 4×100 m freestyle relay (3:28.33).[4]

On his second Olympic appearance in Sydney 2000, Pukhnatiy placed thirty-second in the 200 m individual medley. Swimming in heat three, he picked up a second seed by a 1.33-second margin behind winner George Bovell of Trinidad and Tobago in 2:06.01.[5] He also held liable for an early takeoff in the 4×100 m freestyle relay, when his Uzbekistan team had been disqualified from the heats.[6][7]

Pukhnatiy shortened his program at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens, when he swam only for the third time in the 200 m individual medley. He cleared a FINA B-standard entry time of 2:07.49 from the Kazakhstan Open Championships in Almaty.[8] Swimming in heat two, he edged out Chinese Taipei's Wu Nien-pin to take a fifth spot by nearly half a second (0.50) in 2:08.24. Pukhnatiy failed to advance into the semifinals, as he placed forty-second overall in the preliminaries.[9][10]
