Scott Brennan and David Crawshay rowed to gold in the double scull at the 2008 Olympic Games. Brennan and Crawshay had finished first in the quadruple scull B Final at the Athens Olympic Games in 2004 and were determined to turn that mediocre performance around.
In their words
“It’s an amazing feeling to be one of the first selected athletes, a very different feeling to Beijing where we were one of the last. It’s a big relief and I’m feeling a lot less pressure – just knowing that I can focus my training on the Olympics over the next few months, and not on qualifying.” - Mel Gorman, Open Water swimmer selected for London on 22 December.
