James and Geoff Stewart created history as the first Olympic twins to row together when they made their Olympic debuts at Atlanta 1996, placing 6th in the Men’s Eight.
Four years later, making up 50% of the Men’s Coxless Four, the brothers won bronze at Sydney 2000 alongside their teammates Ben Dodwell and Bo Hanson.
James and Geoff chat to Tim Gilbert about their Sydney 2000 experience – in and out of the boat – on the My Sydney 2000 podcast.
They divulge the special bond they share as identical twins, and how it’s their secret weapon on the water.
They also discuss what it was like to be joined by their younger brother, Stephen, in the Men’s Eight at Athens 2004, where they won bronze – and how their mum and dad managed a family of Olympic rowers!
