As of my last knowledge update in October 2023, one prominent British decathlete is Tim Duckworth, who has represented Great Britain in various international competitions. He has achieved notable performances in the decathlon and has been recognized for his athletic talent in this demanding multi-event discipline. For the most current information, please check the latest sports news or official athletic organization updates.
Daley Thompson of Great Britain.
Yes ... Daley won the gold medal in decathlon at the 1980 Games in Moscow and 1984 Games in Los Angeles.
Tom Kiely won in 1904, Daley Thompson won in 1980 and again in 1984. So the answer is two, but three times. Thompson is one of two people (American Bob Mathias the other) who have repeated as Olympic Decathlon Champion. Here is another asterisk to add. In 1980 many countries boycotted the Olympics in Moscow, then in the Soviet Union. Great Britain attended but competed under the Olympic flag in support of the political issues for the boycott.
