Mihajlo Ristovski

Macedonian swimmer

Mihajlo Ristovski (Macedonian: Михајло Ристовски; born March 3, 1983) is a former Macedonian swimmer, who specialized in freestyle events. He represented the Republic of Macedonia at the 2008 Summer Olympics, placing among the top 60 swimmers in the 200 m freestyle.

Ristovski was invited by FINA through the Universality rule to compete as a lone male swimmer for Macedonia in the men's 200 m freestyle at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing. Swimming against Georgia's Irakli Revishvili and two-time Olympian Emanuele Nicolini of San Marino in heat one, Ristovski powered his way into second place and fifty-fifth overall in his lifetime best at 1:57.45, which was not enough to put him further to the semifinals.
