Zoltán Fábián
Hungarian hammer thrower
Zoltán Fábián (born 22 April 1969) is a male hammer thrower from Hungary. His personal best throw is 78.20 metres, achieved in June 1998 in Budapest.
He competed at the 1994 European Championships and the 1997 World Championships, but without reaching the final. He never became national champion; the competition from Tibor Gécsek, Balázs Kiss, Adrián Annus and Zsolt Németh was too strong, but he did win a bronze medal in 1994.
Continuing as a Masters athlete, he won the M45 division at the 2015 World Masters Athletics Championships.

Why this record matters
The phrase “hungarian hammer thrower” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.
Vocabulary and entity names are the principal evidence signals here, because they determine the precision of every later search. The source revision retrieved here is dated Oct 18, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q8073657. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1969, 1998, 1994 and 1997.
A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
