Cedric Dubler (athletics) nabbed a second consecutive bronze medal in the men’s decathlon at the Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games, finishing just behind Daniel Golubovic which marked the first time that two Australians finished on the podium in the event.
Australia’s most prolific decathlete, Cedric finished 14th at the Rio 2016 Olympics, becoming the first Australian to compete in an Olympic decathlon since Scott Ferrier at Sydney 2000. Dubler’s efforts in encouraging teammate Ash Moloney in the closing stages of the 1500m at the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games to win bronze – Australia’s first Olympic medal in the event – was recognised by the Australian Olympic Committee who named him as the winner of the inaugural Cecil Healy Award for Outstanding Sportsmanship.
Dubler has also competed at four world championships – his 8th place at Eugene in 2022 was the best finish by an Australian in the event – however his attempt to qualify for his third Olympics in Paris in 2024 was derailed by injury.
Cedric tried most events at Little Athletics and after training for the pole vault with Eric Brown, the Brisbane coach soon realised he had a potential decathlete on his hands. He left Brown’s squad after Tokyo, moving to use specialist coaches.
