Sašo Jereb (born 20 January 1983 in Žiri) is a Slovenian judoka, who competed in the men's lightweight category.[1] He represented his nation Slovenia at the 2004 Summer Olympics, and also held five Slovenian championship titles to his career hardware in the 73-kg division.[2] Throughout his sporting career, Jereb trained full-time for the Olympic Judo Club (Slovene: Judo Klub Olimpija) in Ljubljana.[3]

Jereb qualified for the Slovenian squad, as a lone male judoka, in the men's lightweight class (73 kg) at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens, by placing seventh and receiving a berth from the European Championships in Bucharest, Romania.[2][4] He lost his opening match to Iranian judoka Hamed Malekmohammadi, who successfully scored an ippon and an uchi mata gaeshi (inner thigh counter), at three minutes and twenty-eight seconds.[5][6]
