That question really cannot be answered.
Great Britain won its first Olympic gold in rowing at the 1908 Games in London. The finals for all four rowing events were held on July 31 and, since the time of day the events were held was not recorded, we don't know which one was held first. But we do know that Great Britain won gold in all four events and those gold medalists are listed below:
1) Single Sculls - Harry Blackstaffe
2) Coxless Pairs - Gordon Thomson, John Fenning
3) Coxless Fours - Angus Gilan, Duncan Mackinnon, Robert Cudmore, Robert Somers-Smith
4) Coxed Eights - Albert Gladstone, Banner Johnstone, Charles Burnell, Frederick Kelly, Guy Nicholls, Henry Bucknall, Raymond Etherington-Smith, Ronald Sanderson

Prior to his feat .... 1) Aladár Gerevich of Hungary won gold in six consecutive Olympics (1932, 1936, 1948, 1952, 1956, 1960) in team Sabre fencing. There were no Olympics in 1940 and 1944 due to World War II. 2) Pál Kovács of Hungary won gold in five consecutive Olympics (1936, 1948, 1952, 1956, 1960) in team Sabre fencing. Since Redgrave accomplished the feat, Birgit Fischer of Germany won gold in canoeing at the 1988, 1992, 1996, 2000, and 2004 Olympics.
