Aleksandar Šapić

Aleksandar Šapić's athletic career stands out for its longevity and consistency. He is one of the few players to win Olympic medals for three different national teams, a rare feat in any sport. His scoring records at Partizan and with the national team have made him a legend in Serbian water polo, and his coaching role today keeps him connected to that legacy.Beyond sports, his political career has been equally notable, rising from local municipal leader to Mayor of the capital. His ability to transition from elite athlete to high-level politician is uncommon, and it speaks to his discipline and public appeal.
