Rosie Eccles (boxing)

Team Northern Ireland
Rhys McClenaghan (Gymnastics)
The 23-year-old from County Down won gold on the pommel horse at the 2018 Commonwealth Games in the Gold Coast, beating Max Whitlock. Through no fault of his own, he found himself at the center of a row with the International Gymnastics Federation prior to these games, when the IGF said he could not compete for Northern Ireland because he had previously fought for Ireland. After angry intervention by politicians, including Leo Varadkar, citing the Good Friday Agreement, the federation withdrew.
