Rowing

Team LGBTQ rowers enjoy super Sunday, with Lauren Rowles, Moran Samuel and Nikki Ayers all crowned Paralympic champions in Paris.

The British rower, who recently became a mum, and her mixed double sculls partner Gregg Stevenson stormed into the final on the Paris regatta’s opening day.

For years, Viney thought her athletic dreams were dashed by a drunk driver. But after finding a home in para rowing, she's competing in her second Paralympics.

Defending her Olympic single sculls title, Emma Twigg finished second, and said she was “looking forward to a cuddle” from two-year-old son Tommy.

Manson, who had retired from rowing four years ago, was alongside New Zealand double sculls partner Jordan Parry in a highly competitive race.

With a bronze medal for the German women's quad sculls rowing team, Tabea Schendekehl charts a course for out pansexual athletes.

For a while, Olympic rowers accepted their medals with loose-fitting pants. Now their revealing rowing uniforms are making a comeback.

On Day 1 at Paris 2024, Team LGBTQ rowers from New Zealand progressed from their heats but the Games are already over for a gay Brazilian gymnast.

Tabea Schendekehl is just one of the many out LGBTQ rowers competing for gold at the Paris Summer Olympics.

There will be at least six publicly out LGBTQ athletes competing for US Rowing at the Paris Olympics, including a couple Olympic veterans.

It was a six-year international medal drought for Robbie Manson, and four years for Jordan Parry. Now they head to Paris as medal-winners.

Emma Twigg will compete in her fifth Summer Olympics as she takes to the water in Paris, hoping to repeat her gold from Tokyo. Her wife will be there cheering her on.

Nikki Ayers wasn’t always confident to speak up in sport for LGBTQ people like her. In Lesbian Visibility Week, she talks to Outsports about finding her voice.

A dynamic sophomore jump-started Bruin Pride Alliance and seeks to make it a piece of UCLA sports tradition.

The two-time Paralympic gold medal-winning rower gave a powerful speech in support of visibility, having been voted as the PinkNews Sports Personality of the Year.

New Zealand rower Robbie Manson talks about his fourth Games qualification, being on OnlyFans, and LGBTQ visibility.

It took Iowa assistant coach Lowell McNicholas a while to be comfortable with telling his coming out story. Now he’s posting engagement photos on social media.

As Manson pursues the 2024 Olympics, he sees OnlyFans as ‘a space where I can authentically express myself through tasteful and artistic means’ and make money for training.

Till Martini is one of the best young rowers in Germany, and he wants to show other athletes there’s nothing wrong with being gay.

After earning a bronze in Rio 2016, Samuel does herself one better to take home a single sculls silver medal in Tokyo.
