Igor Alekseyevich Malkov (Russian: И́горь Алексе́евич Малко́в; born 9 February 1965 in Pervouralsk, Soviet Union) is a former speedskater.
(The youngest female Olympic speedskater winner is American Anne Henning, who won the 500 m in 1972 at the age of 16.)
Before that, during the same winter, Malkov had sent shock waves into the speed skating world when he skated 13:54.81 on the 10,000 m, thus becoming the first to break the 14 minutes barrier (and almost 30 seconds ahead of the time set by then-current world record holder Gustafson) during the Christmas races at Medeu in December 1983.
He set a new, official, world record later the same season, when he finished in a time of 14:21.51 at Medeo in March 1984, almost 30 seconds behind his personal best.
In 1984, he had his highest ranking on the Adelskalender when he was third, allowing only his fellow countrymen Viktor Shasherin and Andrey Bobrov before him.
