PRINT PAGE
Evan O’Hanlon (athletics) has the perfect Commonwealth Games record – two races and two gold medals in the men’s T37/38 100m at Gold Coast 2018 and Birmingham 2022.
O’Hanlon, who has cerebral palsy due to a pre-natal stroke, also has a remarkable record across four Paralympics and six world championships. At his first Paralympics in Beijing in 2008, he blazed his way to three gold medals in the 100m T38, 200m T38 and 4x100m T38 – all in world record times – including the first athlete with cerebral palsy to run 100m in under 11 seconds. He retained both individual titles four years later in London before winning 100m T38 silver and bronze at Rio 2016 and Tokyo 2020.
O’Hanlon is also Australia’s most successful athlete at the World Para Athletics Championships, winning 12 medals, including seven gold across five editions between 2011 and 2019. He competed at his sixth world championships in Paris in 2023 before calling time on his 18-year international career that November. His diverse career also included piloting a two-man bobsled at the Bobsleigh and Skeleton World Championships in Germany in 2021.
Evan is married to Czech Republic Olympic race walker Zuzana Schindlerova, and they have a daughter and a son.
