Olga Šikovec
Olga Šikovec (later Luncer,  17 January 1933 -  4 April 2023) was a retired Croatian sprinter of Slovenian origin. She competed for Yugoslavia at the 1960 Summer Olympics in the 100 m and 200 m events, but failed to reach the finals. Two years later she was part of the Yugoslav 4 × 100 m relay team that finished fourth at the European championships and set a national record. Šikovec had a brother Rudi and sister Sonja; they lost their father in World War II. At school she played volleyball and table tennis, and changed to athletics in 1953. In 1959 she married a well known sports journalist Vilko Luncer, and in 1961 moved from Trbovlje to Zagreb. Between 1955 and 1965 she won 24 Yugoslav titles over 60 m, 100 m and 200 m distances, and was named as Slovenian (1960) and Croatian (1962) Athlete of the Year. She retired from competitions in 1966 and later worked as a sports administrator and referee. Following an example of her husband, who was a long-term editor for the Zagreb Sports News, she also wrote on sport-related topics. Her son Bojan Luncer became a middle-distance runner and a member of the Yugoslav junior team. He was first founding CEO of Lidl Croatia and Lidl International Board Member later. References
