Sándor Rozsnyói, Rosner (24 November 1930 – 2 September 2014) was a Hungarian athlete, who mainly competed in the 3,000-metre steeple chase.

Born in Zalaegerszeg, he competed for Hungary at the 1956 Summer Olympics held in Melbourne, Australia, where he won the silver medal in the men's 3.000m steeplechase.

Rozsnyói remained in Australia after the Olympics rather than return home to Hungary which had been invaded by the Soviet Union. Rozsnyói became a physical education teacher in New South Wales, teaching at Epping Boys High School, Cumberland High School and Model Farms High School, and was a coach with the Ryde-Hornsby Athletic Club.
