Pavel Leo Edmund Schmidt (9 February 1930 – 14 August 2001)[2] was a Slovak rower who competed for Czechoslovakia, mostly in the double sculls together with Václav Kozák. They won a gold medal at the 1960 Summer Olympics in Rome[1] and two medals at European championships in 1959 and 1961,[3] and placed fourth at the 1962 World Rowing Championships.[2]
After retiring from competitions, Schmidt became a rowing coach, and in 1967–68 trained the Mexico national team. After that he did not return to Czechoslovakia, but settled in Switzerland together with his family. There he worked as a psychiatrists and as a coach at the Biel sports school.[2]
