Biography

Two-time world champion Alex Gregory makes his Olympic debut after narrowly missing out on a place in the men’s quad for Beijing 2008.

He lists talking to animals, wood carving and camping as his hobbies and legendary climber Joe Simpson and late wildlife expert Steve Irwin as his idols. Gregory shares the same birthday as men’s four teammate Tom James.

At the 2012 Olympics in London, Gregory won gold in the men's four with partners Pete Reed, Tom James and Andrew Triggs Hodge.
