Sven August Malm (25 February 1894 – 26 November 1974) was a Swedish sprinter who competed at the 1920 Summer Olympics. He won a bronze medal in the 4 × 100 m and finished fifth in the 4 × 400 m relay, but failed to reach the finals of individual 100 m and 200 m events.[1][3]
Malm won the 1917 Swedish title in the 400 m hurdles, but did not compete in this event at the Olympics. Between 1916 and 1923 he was either a winner or runner up at every Swedish 4 × 100 m relay championship.[1]
