Carmine Abbagnale

Water and Boat Sports

Carmine Abbagnale is an Italian rower and Olympic champion, born on 5 January 1962. He rowed in the coxed pair with his older brother Giuseppe and the coxswain Giuseppe Di Capua, a crew that won the Olympic gold medal at the 1984 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles and defended the title at the 1988 Summer Olympics in Seoul. At the 1992 Summer Olympics in Barcelona the same crew won the silver medal, finishing behind another pair of brothers, Greg and Jonny Searle of Great Britain. Carmine is also the older brother of the triple Olympic gold medalist Agostino Abbagnale, so all three Abbagnale brothers are Olympic medalists.
