Hungary became Europe's leading discus throw power during the early 1930s, with the emergence of throwers like Remecz, István Donogán and Endre Madarász.
[1] Remecz first broke the European record in 1931, throwing 48.83 m in Debrecen; his mark was the best in the world that year.
[1][3] He was one of the leading favorites at the 1932 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles,[1][4] but he underperformed and only reached 45.02 m, placing ninth and failing to qualify for the final rounds.
[1][5] Remecz's European record was broken by Sweden's Harald "Slaktarn" Andersson in 1934.
[1][3] Remecz was Hungarian champion in 1932, 1933 and 1934[6] and placed fourth at the inaugural European Championships in Turin, behind Andersson, Paul Winter and Donogán.
