2012 Leaver
Imogen Grant
Imogen started rowing at Trinity College while studying medicine after leaving Stephen Perse in 2012. Her meteoric success since then is an inspiration to us all.
As part of the Cambridge University Women’s BC Blue Boat she won two boat races, and set a course record. Amongst her many triumphs, Imogen competed in the lightweight women's single at the 2018 World Rowing U23 Championships in Poznan, taking a dominant gold by nearly two lengths. In 2019, she won a bronze in the lightweight women's double at the World Rowing Championships in Linz, qualifying the boat for the Tokyo Olympic Games, finishing a heart-wrenching 4th place by a mere 0.01 seconds. Since the Tokyo Olympic Games Imogen has combined with Emily Craig to win ten successive international regattas in the lightweight women’s double sculls. A superb unbeaten run has seen them crowned double world champions, double European champions and World Rowing Crew of the Year in 2023. The quest for Olympic gold starts on 29th July and runs until 3rd August.
