As the Olympic Opening Ceremonies are only hours away, there has been speculation for months to see who will light the Olympic flame in London. Several famed British personas have carried the flame so far including Rupert Grint from Harry Potter, the boy band the Wanted and Andy Murray. Of all of the famed British athletes like Beckham being considered, I am hoping to see a lesser known athlete to Americans but one of the greatest athletes of all time. Sir Steve Redgrave of Great Britain won 5 Olympic gold medals in 5 different Olympics for rowing.
