Who is Paul Drewes?

Paul Drewes is a rower from the Netherlands.

Drewes rows in the lightweight fours and lightweight double sculls and debuted in the Rowing World Cup circuit May 2005 in Eton in the lightweight fours where he finished in fourth position together with his team mates Wim Bakker, Jacob Haartsen and Samuel Alberga. His lightweight double sculls debut followed in July 2005 with a fifth position together with Karel Dormans in Luzern. At the World Championships in Gifu he and Wolter Blankert reached the ninth position. 2006 was focused on the lightweight fours again and at the World Cup meeting in Munich Drewes, Arnoud Greidanus, Blankert and Tom van den Broek became third. An additional fifth place in Luzern gave them some hope for the World Championships in Eton, but in the end they only finished in an eleventh position there.

In 2007 he started in the lightweight double sculls again, this time with Roeland Lievens and a second place in the World Cup meeting in Linz was the result. The next two World Cups in Amsterdam and Luzern however he would row in the lightweight fours again. With Alwin Snijders, Greidanus and Lievens he became third in Amsterdam. With Gerard van der Linden instead of Greidanus they also became third in Luzern. This was also the team selection for the World Championships in Munich but they only became tenth this time.
