MARCUS WYATT

Marcus Wyatt is the current World Championship silver medalist, an Overall World Cup gold, silver and bronze medalist, a former European Champion and a double Olympian.

Marcus just missed out on completing a full house of top tier medals when he finished fourth in the team event with Freya Tarbit at his second Olympic Games in Milan Cortina in February 2026. He was ninth in the individual event in Italy, having previously placed 16th on his Olympic debut in China in 2022.

He won two World Cup golds and a silver last season (in Sigulda (gold and silver) and Altenberg) and made the Overall World Cup podium four times during the most recent full Olympic cycle, winning team gold in 2026, individual silver in 2024 and individual bronze in both 2023 and 2026.

Marcus won World Championship silver in Lake Placid in March 2025 when he and Matt Weston became the first Brits to make the global podium at the same time.

He took the European title in Sigulda in February 2024, a season after winning his first Overall World Cup bronze when he again podiumed alongside Weston for another British first in the men’s field.

Having claimed the country’s first men's World Cup medal since 2013 when he won bronze in Sigulda in November 2020, he recorded his maiden World Cup win in Whistler in the 2022/23 season and, by the end of the 2025/26 campaign, he had 15 individual World Cup medals to his name.

He won World Cup team gold twice in 2024/25 and again in 2025/26, claiming the first ever mixed team Overall World Cup title last term.

A race winner on the sports's second-tier circuit, the Intercontinental Cup (ICC), in Igls in November 2018, Marcus made his World Cup debut at the same venue 11 months earlier in December 2017 when he finished a hugely impressive 10th in his first elite-level outing. 

His first ever race in GB colours saw him finish fifth in the North American Cup (NAC) in Lake Placid in March 2016 and his first international medals followed the next season with silver on both the NAC circuit in Park City and the ICC in Placid.

Marcus joined the GB set up through the Power2Podium talent ID scheme in the aftermath of the Sochi Winter Olympics in 2014 but his sporting background is somewhat different to most of his contemporaries in that his first love was American Football. A regular MVP for the Farnham Knights and Swansea University Titans as a wide receiver, Marcus led the latter to the National Challenge Trophy in 2014.
