Wojciech Tyszyński

Wojciech Tyszyński (born December 12, 1984 in Sztum) is a Polish flatwater canoer and former world champion in the Canadian canoe C4 1000m team event.

Promoted to the Poland C4 1000m crew for the 2003 season, Tyszyński won the bronze medal at the world championships in Gainesville, USA.

2005 proved his most successful season to date. The Polish four, including Tyszyński, took the C4 1000m silver medal at the European championships in Poznań. The following month they became world champions in Zagreb, Croatia.

At the start of the 2006 season Tyszyński finished second in the Polish trials, earning the right to represent Poland in the individual C1 1000m for the first time. At the European Championships in Račice, Czech Republic, he made a confident debut among the world's elite, finishing in fifth place. Still only 22, he also represented Poland at the European Under-23 Championships in Schinias, Greece, winning a C2 1000m bronze medal with partner Arkadiusz Toński.

At the 2006 Senior World Championships however Tyszyński was disqualified in his C1 1000m semi-final. The revamped Poland C4 1000m crew were unable to repeat their Zagreb success, finishing in fourth place.

Tyszyński is a member of the Victoria Sztum Canoe Club, where he is trained by Stanisław Kuczyński.
