Tapio Korjus (born 10 February 1961, in Vehkalahti ) is a Finnish former javelin thrower .
Biography [ edit ]
Korjus was born in Vehkalahti . He was one of the leading representatives of javelin throwing in his home country in the 1980s, but did not attain international success until 1988.
At the Summer Olympics held in Seoul , South Korea , Korjus held the silver medal position for most of the contest. However, with the last throw of the competition, he threw for 84.28 meters, which meant gold for Korjus. Korjus continued to compete after his Olympic victory for one more season, and retired from sports at the end of 1989. He later worked as an athletics coach and has coached other javelin throwers including Mikaela Ingberg .[1] [2]
Form 2007-11, Korjus was chairman of the Finnish National Sports Council and was re-elected as chairman of that council again in 2015. In 2010, Korjus also became chairman of the Finnish NOC professional sports committee.[2]
