Belgian canoeist From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Olivier Cauwenbergh (born 15 March 1987) is a Belgian sprint canoeist.[1][2] Cauwenbergh is a member of Royal Canoe Club Mechelen (Dutch: Koninklijke Cano Club Mechelen), and thus is coached and trained by Carlos Prendes.[1]
Cauwenbergh qualified for the men's K-2 1000 metres at the 2012 Summer Olympics in London, by finishing fourth from the 2011 ICF Canoe Sprint World Championships in Szeged, Hungary.[3] Cauwenbergh and his partner Laurens Pannecoucke paddled to a second-place finish and tenth overall in the B-final by forty-seven hundredths of a second (0.47) behind the winning Danish pair Kim Wraae Knudsen and Emil Stær Simensen, posting their best Olympic time of 3:13.298.[4] Three days later, the Belgian pair edged out Romania's Ionuț Mitrea and Bogdan Mada for fourth place by ten seconds, in the B-final of the men's K-2 200 metres, clocking at 36.336 seconds.[5]
