Edvard Vilhelm "Eetu" Westerlund (1 February 1901 – 7 December 1982) was a Greco-Roman wrestler from Finland. He competed at the 1924, 1928 and 1936 Olympics and won a gold medal in 1924 and a bronze in 1928. He collected the same pair of medals at the world championships in 1921–22.[1] Domestically Westerlund competed both in Greco-Roman and freestyle wrestling and won three titles: in 1927 in Greco-Roman lightweight, in 1929 in freestyle lightweight and in 1936 in Greco-Roman light-heavyweight. His brothers Kalle and Emil were also Olympic wrestlers.[2]
