Five-time Olympic Champion
Widely considered Great Britain's greatest Olympian, Redgrave set Olympic history
in 2000, becoming the only non-fencer to win gold medals at five consecutive Olympic
Games. He won the coxed four gold in Los Angeles in 1984 and the coxless pair gold
in Seoul in 1988, Barcelona in 1992 and Atlanta in 1996. He won a record fifth gold
medal in Sydney in 2000 in the coxless fours. His ninth World
Championship Gold came in 1999 also as a result of his partnership with Matthew Pinsent
and together they hold the record in Coxless Pairs set in Lucerne in 1994 and the
Olympic Record set in Atlanta in 1996. Additional honours include the Henley Royal
Regatta Diamond Sculls and the Silver Goblets a record seven times. Steve was Commonwealth
Gold Medallist in Edinburgh winning the Single Sculls, Coxless Pairs and Coxed Four.
Redgrave was knighted in April, 2001.
