Slobodan Soro

Slobodan SoroSport: Waterpolo

Nation: Serbia

DOB: December 23, 1978

Career Highlights: This will be the second Olympics for Soro, who has established himself as one of the top goalkeepers in the world. Soro has earned Best Goalkeeper honors at the 2010 FINA World Cup, the 2011 FINA World League and the 2012 Samaridis Cup. He's helped the Serbians win gold medals at two world championships, with the latest of those titles coming in January. Soro enjoyed a stellar performance at the Beijing Olympics four years ago, when he was in net for Serbia's 6-4 victory over Montenegro to capture the bronze medal. He had possibly an even more impressive effort in group play, when Serbia prevailed 4-2 in a defensive struggle with the United States. Soro has played for five different club teams in Serbia, and is currently the goalkeeper for VK Partizan.
