Barbara Kendall an Olympian for Life

Three-time Olympic medallist Barbara Kendall has been made an Olympian for Life by the World Olympians Association, an honour bestowed on just five Olympians at each edition of the Games.

It is reserved for athletes who have drawn on their Olympic experiences to make the world a better place. Kendall, a champion sailor, was recognised for her commitment to empowering up-and-coming athletes.

The five-time Olympian won gold at Barcelona 1992, silver at Atlanta 1996 and bronze at Sydney 2000.
