Vitold Anatolievich Kreyer (Russian: Витольд Анатольевич Креер; 12 October 1932 – 1 August 2020)[2] was a Russian triple jumper. He competed in the 1956, 1960 and 1964 Olympics and won bronze medals in 1956 and 1960. He won the Soviet title in 1960 and 1961 but failed to reach the finals at the 1958 and 1962 European Championships.
