Anton Olehovych Dukach (Ukrainian: Антон Олегович Дукач, born 30 July 1995) is a Ukrainian luger and a three-time Olympian (2018, 2022, and 2026).

Career

At the 2012 Winter Youth Olympics in Innsbruck, Austria, Anton Dukach finished 4th in boys' singles, having lost 0.022 seconds to a German athlete who was third. He was 7th in the team relay (together with Stetskiv, Buryy, and Lehedza). He was also the flagbearer of Ukraine at the Games.[1]

Dukach's first World Cup season was the 2012–13 season. As of December 2025, Dukach's best Luge World Cup finish was 7th in the 2023–24 season in Sigulda, Latvia, in both singles races on 25 February and 3 March 2024.

Dukach participated in several World Championships, with his best personal result being 12th in 2024.

On 27 December 2017, Dukach qualified for the 2018 Winter Olympics.[2] At the Olympics, he finished 23rd in the singles' race and 13th in the team relay (together with Shkhumova, Obolonchyk, and Zakharkiv).

In 2022, Anton Dukach was nominated for his second Winter Games in Beijing.[3] In the singles event, he finished 22nd and didn't qualify for the fourth run due to poor performance in the first run after falling off on the final curve.[4][5] Dukach was included in the relay team, where Ukraine (Tunytska, Dukach, Stakhiv and Lysetskyi) finished 11th.

In January 2025, Dukach achieved his first win in a Nations Cup race.[6]

Personal life

Dukach studied computer security at Lviv Polytechnic.[7][8][9] He also studied Lviv State University of Physical Culture[10][11].
