Rower - Men's Squad
Club: Leander Club
Height: 192cm
Hometown: Staines
Tom relaxes after training by watching Les Miserables, so bringing home silver at his first Olympics in Tokyo certainly was the culmination of a dream he dreamed in times gone by.
The second place finish saw the quad make history as Team GB’s first ever Olympic medal in that boat class.
He started rowing aged 11 at Burway Rowing Club near Staines, where his family lives, and attended Tiffin School in Kingston-upon-Thames. Tom is a qualified physiotherapist, who studied at Cardiff University. He loves to visit Mauritius because of the gorgeous weather and beaches – which coincidentally is twinned with his home town of Staines. Outside of rowing he is busy planning his wedding to fiancée Ellie.

Tom is a qualified physiotherapist and works part-time alongside training. His family live in Staines, which is twinned with Mauritius – his favourite holiday destination, because of the lovely weather and beaches.
Given the chance to become any other sportsperson, he would choose to be Usain Bolt, who he admires for his ability to have fun without impacting on performance.
If stranded on a desert island, Tom would hope to be accompanied by a decent supply of tracksuit bottoms, Coca-Cola, and his phone. He relaxes on the sofa after training by watching Les Misérables or Olympus Has Fallen, and three of his best friends would be his ideal dinner party companions.
He is Lottery funded through UK Sport.
