HE GAVE US an Olympic silver medal, the iconic phrase “pull like a dog” and so many brilliant moments in Rio with his brother Gary.
And now Paul O’Donovan has gone and won gold at the World Rowing Championships in Rotterdam today.
This is the moment he met his dad Teddy straight after the race
Rowing Ireland were on hand to capture the moment on Twitter, calling them “hugs of joy.”
And with the tricolour still wrapped around him as well.
#PullLikeADog immediately started trending again after the win
Of course.
Look how far ahead he was as he crossed the line to become the world champion
The commentator knew what was up when he was well on his way to the victory with this quote
Because when he returns to Skibbereen on Monday it’ll be some homecoming – as they all have plenty to celebrate
The gold medal doesn’t look too bad at all
Hats off to Paul O’Donovan.
