time 8,618 Posted March 17, 2022 It's 64 years since the death of Dubliner John Pius Boland, at age 87. In 1896, as an academic on a study break in Athens, he was persuaded by a friend to enter the tennis competition in the newly revived Olympic Games; thus he became the first tennis gold-medallist, winning the singles and then the doubles with the German player he beat in the singles event. He's reported to have insisted on the Irish flag being flown instead of the Union flag, though this has since been (reportedly) disproved. He was later an Irish Parliamentary Party MP for South Kerry at Westminster, from 1900 to 1918. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
