Yevgeniy Petrovich Alexeyev (Kazakh: Евгений Петрович Алексеев; born 11 December 1977 in Shymkent) is a Kazakhstani sprint canoeist.[1][2] He won a gold medal, as a member of the Kazakhstan men's kayak four, at the 2002 Asian Games in Busan, South Korea, and silver at the 2010 Asian Games in Guangzhou, China.[3] He also captured a bronze medal, along with his partner Alexey Podoinikov in the men's kayak doubles (1000 m) at the 2006 Asian Games in Doha, Qatar.[4]

Alexeyev qualified for the men's K-2 1000 metres at the 2012 Summer Olympics in London by placing first from the 2011 Asian Canoe Sprint Championships in Tehran, Iran.[5] Alexeyev and his partner Alexey Dergunov paddled to a third-place finish, and eleventh overall in the B-final by approximately two seconds behind the winning Danish pair Kim Wraae Knudsen and Emil Stær Simensen, posting their best Olympic time of 3:14.867.[6] Three days later, the Kazakh pair edged out Japan's Momotaro Matsushita and Hiroki Watanabe for first place by twenty-four hundredths of a second (0.24), in the B-final of the men's K-2 200 metres, clocking at 35.494 seconds.[7]
