Team GB rower Tom George says he and Ollie Wynne-Griffith have found 'a winning formula' in the men's pair heading to the Olympics.
Rower Tom George said a mentality shift has helped him and Team GB men's pair partner Ollie Wynne-Griffith "find a winning formula" going into the Paris Olympics.
"There was one thing he said to us in our second meeting: 'No doubt you guys are really fast - you want to compare yourself to the top boats'. "Rob , the coach there, was very much the architect and pushed this idea - he presented us all this data we had from how we were rowing the boat," George said.
His time of five minutes 39.6 seconds made him the first British rower to dip under the 5.40 time barrier. "We're very fortunate to be very physiologically talented as a pair, with very strong, big engines - when we first got into the pair we relied on that a lot," George added.
