Swimmer Robbie Renwick has been named Scottish Sportsperson of the Year 2015.
Following an outstanding season, which saw him become World Champion for the first time in his career, Robbie Renwick was named Scottish Sportsperson of the Year 2015 and awarded the Emirates Lonsdale Trophy at the Commonwealth Games Scotland Awards Dinner in Glasgow.
Fellow swimmer 18-year-old Duncan Scott collected the Sir Peter Heatly Trophy for the Young Sportsperson of the Year to make it a clean sweep of the main awards for swimming.
Renwick scooped the top award for playing a key part of Great Britain’s 4x200m Freestyle Relay team at the 2015 Swimming World Championships in Kazan. Scott also played a valuable part in the victory as a relay team member.
A delighted Robbie Renwick said: "It’s absolutely amazing to win. Just seeing the people who have won this award in the past few years, it’s stunning to be up there with the best in Scotland. It really means a lot to me.
“This year has been the highlight of my swimming career. From being at a point after the Commonwealth Games last year, not sure if I wanted to keep swimming to turning that around and being World Champion a year later is hugely exciting.”
