Michel Andrieux

Water and Boat Sports

Michel Andrieux, born on 28 April 1967, is a French competition rower and Olympic champion. He won the gold medal in the coxless pair at the 2000 Summer Olympics. A coxless pair is a boat for two rowers, each with one oar and no coxswain, so the two athletes steer and balance the boat themselves. The English Wikipedia article on him is very short and records this Olympic title as the main fact of his career, together with a note on how his surname is pronounced in French.
