Zoltán Kővágó (born 10 April 1979 in Szolnok) is a Hungarian discus thrower.
At the 2004 Olympic Games he initially won the bronze medal, but was promoted to silver when countryman Róbert Fazekas was disqualified following a doping rule violation.
Kővágó already moved from there – he also officially reported his new address earlier – thus according to the controller's own admission he made an appointment with him on the phone and he stated Kővágó had not wanted to meet with him and had refused to give a sample.
On the contrary Kővágó could be able to prove with the call registry that in said period the controller did not make any attempt to search for him.
The IAAF did not accept this, thus the Hungarian Athletics Association appealed to the CAS (International Sport Court) and fully supported the athlete arguing all the evidence contradicts the controller's word.
