Mail Sport and The National Lottery are collaborating to provide exclusive video content from our great Olympian Sir Steve Redgrave each day during the Paris Olympic Games.
Sir Steve claimed five Gold medals throughout his exceptional career and is regarded as one of our greatest Olympic heroes. In 1996 at the Atlanta Olympics, Team GB secured only one gold medal, which Steve and Matthew Pinsent achieved for the nation.
This was during a period when National Lottery funding had not yet transformed the possibilities for our British athletes. Thanks to National Lottery players, Team GB has become a superpower on the global stage, winning 22 Golds and a total of 64 medals at the last Olympics in Tokyo.
