Martin Doktor, born 21 May 1974 in Polička, near Svitavy), is the Czech Republic's best-known flatwater canoer. He was double Olympic champion in the Canadian canoe C-1 discipline in Atlanta in 1996.
He went on to win two world championship gold medals (C1 200m 1997 and C1 500m 1998). He was also European C1 1000m champion in 1997 and 2000.
At the 2004 Summer Olympics Doktor was unfortunate not to add to his medal tally, coming in fourth in the 1000m final and fifth in the 500m.
His most recent medal success came at the 2006 European Championships, held in Račice, Czech Republic, where he won the C1 200m silver medal.
Doktor, nicknamed Boban, remains one of canoeing's most consistent performers. At the 2006 Flatwater Racing World Championships he entered all three C1 events, reaching the final in each. He finished fourth in the 200m, fifth in the 500m and eighth in the 1000m.
He is 178 cm (5'10") tall and weighs 78 kg (172 lbs).
