Khorloogiin Bayanmönkh (Mongolian: Хорлоогийн Баянмөнх; born 22 February 1944) is a retired Mongolian wrestler. At the 1972 Summer Olympics he won the silver medal in the men's freestyle heavyweight category.[1] His name Bayanmonkh means "Rich eternal" in the Mongolian language.
Bayanmönkh is the second most successful wrestler in Mongolian wrestling with 10 championship wins (1968, 1971–1973, 1975, 1977, 1979, 1981–1982, 1987).[2]
In 1972 he was awarded the title of Merited Master of Sport of the USSR.[3]
He was originally named after the revolutionary D.Sükhbaatar, as he was born on the same date, February 2. However, following a severe illness at the age of 6, he was given the new name Bayanmönkh.[4]
He officially retired from Mongolian wrestling in 2022 during Naadam festival at the age of 80.[5] Prior to the start of the 5th round, a zasuul sang poetic praise of his triumphs and achievements in his Mongolian wrestling career one last time.
