About this person
Polydore Jules Léon Veirman was a Belgian rower who won two Olympic silver medals: in 1908 in the eight, and in 1912 in the single scull. Between 1901 and 1912 Veirman won four gold and three silver medals in various events at European championships. He was assured another medal at the 1913 European Rowing Championships as of the four single scull finalists, Giuseppe Sinigaglia and Anatol Peresselenzeff were disqualified. Competing against only one other rower, Veirman capsized, and Friedrich Graf was the only one to reach the finish line.
