Saturday, September 23 REDGRAVE SHOWS TRUE COLOURS Steve Redgrave stormed into the history books with a fifth successive Olympic rowing gold medal this morning setting himself up to become the first knight of the sport. Pinsent, overwhelmed with joy, celebrates victory with Redgrave after their gold medal win It is widely rumoured that Redgrave will be given the honour by Tony Blair following the CBE which he already holds, after his victory in the coxless fours early this morning. The title capped the most remarkable career in the history of British Olympic sport with a stunning performance on the first overcast day of the Olympics. Redgrave triumphed before a full-house of 22,000 at the idyllic rowing venue for which tickets in many countries had been completely pre-sold before the event. Fifty-one countries battled for rowing honours. Natalie, Redgrave’s eldest daughter was in floods of tears as the boats crossed the line - the finish was so close that she thought her father has failed to make it. His sisters too were overcome by the moment. Natalie was so overcome that all she say was: ”It’s good.” Redgrave’s father Geoff, aged 70, a retired builder only just made the race. For three days he has been in bed with Sydney flu and only heavy medication got him out to the finish line in time to see a moment of sporting history. “We been here since March and I’ve had no problem then we come to Sydney and I get the flu.”

History
Only four sports have been in every modern Olympics. Rowing would be a fifth, but all five events scheduled in 1896 were cancelled because of bad weather. However, the rowing events did come off in 1900, and the sport has been a staple of the Olympic program ever since. Women's rowing was added in 1976 and lightweight events joined the program in 1996. All Olympic rowing competition has the same basic format, beginning with qualifying heats. The fastest qualifiers go into the semifinal and the others enter a repechage round. The top repechage finishers also advance to the semifinal. The first six semifinal finishers race in the final and the next six enter a petit final, for 7th through 12th places. Top of page

  • OK, this is getting silly. Gold for Redgrave and cohort yesterday, silver (the first women's Olympic rowing medal) for the women's quad today in the tightest of finishes, and finally, to round off the regatta, gold for all nine of the British men's eight, beating the rest of the big boys at their own game, peaking at exactly the right time after silver last year and defeats this summer. Three rowing medals, thirteen Olympic champions and four Olympic runners up, our best result for decades. Huge congratulations to everybody involved, (and a particular well done from RQ to Guin, to Tim, and to Rowley, Fred and Ben H-D).
  • Mission, ecstatically, accomplished - Chris Dodd's exclusive report for the Rowing Service.
  • LIVE REPORTING - Both the first and second set of A-finals from Penrith were covered live by the Rowing Service online, with auto-updating. These reports will remain online now as static files.
  • There is the chance of more reportage from the British press contingent, over the next few days, so check back here for updates.
  • Redgrave does it : it was fast, hard, and agonisingly close. Gold for the truly awesome foursome and their inimitable coach. Below is the real-time-written report, and here is Chris Dodd's report on the day that made history:

Olympic History: Rowing
Since 1000 B.C. when the oar and fulcrum were developed, rowing has been a means of transportation. It actually developed into a sport in the early 19th century. Eton boys were competing in eights in England in 1811. The first boat club in the U.S. appeared in New York Harbor in 1834 and a Yale student began an intramural college program in 1843. With that, the sport spread throughout the country. By 1873, there were 289 rowing clubs in the U.S. Although rowing was supposed to debut in the first modern Games in Athens in 1896, rough weather pushed back its start to the 1900 Paris Games with five events, all men's. The British and U.S. dominated in the early years, but the Soviet Union and East Germany changed that in the 1950s, and presently the field is wide open. Women's rowing entered the Montreal Games in 1976.

A Proud Tradition Rutgers Olympic History In the Beginning In 1864, rowing became the first organized sport at Rutgers. Initially, six mile intramural races and races against the town were held on the Raritan River among crews in six-oared boats. Rowing was a very popular sport at the school and received much attention, including daily articles in the school newspaper, the Targum. Modern Era Since those days, Rutgers had built up a very large and successful program, which includes heavyweight men, lightweight men, and women. It wasn't until the 1970's that the demand for women's rowing grew and Rutgers responded by adding it as a club sport in 1974; it became a varsity sport in 1977. The men compete in the Eastern Association of Rowing Colleges (EARC) while the women competer in the similar EAWRC (both know as the Eastern Sprints League). This is the most competitive league in the nation.

    OLYMPIC HISTORY The first Olympic rowing champion was probably the youngest ever champion across all sports. On August 26, 1900, The Netherlands coxed pair decided that their cox was too heavy and dropped him. They chose instead a French boy from the crowd. The boy's photograph was taken on the medal rostrum as he was honoured, but then he disappeared into the crowd and no details were taken down. He is believed to have been between 7 and 12 years old. Anything under 10 would make him the youngest ever Olympic gold medal-winner. At the opposite end of the spectrum, Robert Zimonyi became the oldest gold medal winner when, aged 46, he coxed the US eight in 1964. A more famous American turned up in 1920; John Kelly, a bricklayer from Philadelphia, beat Jack Beresford, of Great Britain, to win the single sculls title. Beresford came back four years later to win the 1924 title on the River Seine in Paris, and, with Leslie Southwood won the double sculls in front of Hitler at the 1936 Games in Berlin. Kelly, meanwhile, had been busy becoming a family man, and his offspring would extend his fame beyond sport; while his son was four-times Olympic rower John Jr, his daughter, Grace Kelly, became a Hollywood actress and later Princess Grace of Monaco.

    Ananova: Olympic sport guide - Rowing A guide to the Olympic sport of Rowing. Technical details All races are held over a course of 2000m, with six lanes marked off. The different events in rowing range from the single person sculls, double sculls, fours and eights. Scullers - a single rower - have a sculling blade in each hand, 2.98m in length. In coxed events, the cox steers the boat. The oars are 3.82m long and rowers hold a single oar. The blades must be painted with national colours. In men's and women's events, there is one coxed event, which is the eight. The cox steers the boat. In coxless events, the boat is steered by a rudder line attached to one of the rowers' shoes. The boats vary in size from single sculls, measuring 8.2m to the eight which is 18.9m. Olympic history Rowing became an Olympic sport in 1900. Since then the distance has changed four times before 2000m was agreed upon for men and women at the 1992 Games in Barcelona. The women's rowing event was introduced to the Olympic programme in 1976.

    New Zealand failed to be represented at the first three Olympiads in Athens 1896, Paris 1900 and St Louis 1904 due to costs and travel distances. For the 1908 Games in London and the 1912 Games in Stockholm, New Zealand athletes teamed up with Australian competitors to compete under the banner 'Australasia'. The first Olympic medal ever won by a New Zealander was as an 'Australasian' representative. Harry Kerr won a bronze medal for the 3500 metres walk in 1908. New Zealand's first Olympic gold medallist was swimmer Malcolm Champion. Champion was a member of the Australasian 4x200 metre relay team which won the gold at Stockholm in 1912, breaking the world record. Another New Zealander at Stockholm, Anthony Wilding from Canterbury, won bronze in the men's tennis singles.
