Biography
Hristos Polihroniou (also Christos Polychroniou, Greek: Χρήστος Πολυχρονίου, born March 31, 1972) is retired a Greek hammer thrower.
He was born in Athens.
His personal best throw is 80.08 metres, achieved in April 2002 in Athens. This ranks him second among Greek hammer throwers, only behind Alexandros Papadimitriou.

He was suspended by the IAAF from May 2005 to May 2007, after he'd tested positive for clomiphene. In 2008 he was found guilty of refusal to submit to doping control, and received a life ban.
