Harry Van Barneveld (born 18 February 1967) is a Belgian former judoka. At the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta he won a bronze medal in the heavyweight category.[1] Van Barneveld considers his victory in the 1992 Jigoro Kano Cup his greatest victory, as this was a first for a non-Japanese judoka.[2]
