Sergey Tetyukhin

Each sport has its own legend. In Russian volleyball, this is Sergei Tetyukhin. He is the only volleyball player to have four Olympic medals. And also Tetyukhin is a 10-time champion of Russia and a 2-time winner of the World Cup.

Sergei Tetyukhin says he has two birthdays. He was born on September 23, 1975, but the registry office confused something and indicated in the birth certificate on October 23. It turned out a run-up in a month.

Father and mother of the future volleyball celebrity, Yuri Ivanovich and Lyubov Ablyakimovna, honored volleyball coaches of Russia. The sons followed in the footsteps of their parents. Sergey's brother, Oleg, received a master of sports in volleyball and became an arbiter in this sport.

Sergei spent his childhood in Uzbekistan. There he also started playing volleyball. The first coach of Sergei Tetyukhin was the boy's father. In the early 90s, the situation in Uzbekistan heated up - an ethnic conflict broke out. Then the family decided to move to Russia. We chose Belgorod, where Tetyukhin's professional volleyball career began.

In 1992, Sergey joined the Belogorye team. The level of training and sports data of the young man impressed the coach - Tetyukhin had phenomenal coordination and knew how to play in any position. In the team, he became a wager.

The first victory came three years later, when Belogorye won the 1995 Russian Cup. In the next three seasons Sergey Tetyukhin became the winner of the Russian championships, and in 1999 he became the best volleyball player of the season and received the title of "Honored Master of Sports". In the same year, he received an offer from the Italian club Parma (then it was a team of the second division). The volleyball player played for this club for two seasons and managed to bring it to the 5th place in the regular season.

Then Tetyukhin returned to Belgorod and more than once became the champion of Russia, won other prestigious championships. In the period 2006-2010, the athlete played for Zenit Kazan, but in 2011 he returned to his native Belogorye.

Sergei Tetyukhin played 307 games for the Russian volleyball team. He first played for the main team at the age of 19, and at the age of 21 he played for the senior national team in a match against the Japanese. The Russians won. In 2002 and 2009, he took breaks, but in 2011 he returned to the big sport. Tetyukhin was 36 years old when he went to the World Cup games as part of the team and won gold, contrary to the forecasts of sports commentators.

The athlete has been married for a long time and is happily married. He met his future wife Natalya in the gym, when he played for the institute team at the city volleyball championship. The attention of Sergei Tetyukhin was attracted not by the girl, but by her caustic comments about the athlete's game. When we got to know each other better, it turned out that Natalya herself plays volleyball, so she has the right to comment.

Sergey claims that at that moment he realized that without her mathematical assessments of his game he could no longer live. They soon got married. The Tetyukhin family has three children - sons Ivan, Pavel and Alexander. Senior Vanya plays for the Tekhnolog-Belogorye volleyball team in the B Major League. Pasha plays for Belogorye-2 in the youth league. Sasha just recently started school.

Natalia and Sergei dream of a daughter.

In October 2000, a man was involved in a terrible car accident. When Sergei overtook the car, he did not notice the oncoming traffic. Fortunately, everyone survived. Then Tetyukhin received numerous injuries and fractures. And after recovery, it was found that the bones on the toes did not heal properly. I had to break them again.

After 2 years, the man almost died with the team in a plane crash. Then the plane flew into a thundercloud, and during landing it was covered by a sandstorm. The pilots landed the air transport blindly. Later, Sergei said that after that flight, everyone took up cigarettes, even those who had never smoked.

In addition to the usual volleyball, Sergey became interested in the beach, even participated in the World Series. This happened at a time when the man was taking a break from playing for the Russian national team.
