Origin
and identity

Sergey Tetyukhin linked six Olympic campaigns with the passing, composure and difficult-point scoring of a durable outside hitter.

Born in Uzbekistan, he built most of his club career in Belgorod. Olympic silver and two bronzes preceded the extraordinary comeback that brought Russia gold in London.

His longevity did not erase his influence on decisive rallies. A final Olympic appearance in Rio completed an international span stretching from the 1990s into a new volleyball generation.
