The United States Men's Four rowing team won the bronze medal at the 2012 Olympic Games held at Dorney Lake in Windsor, England.
The United States finished with a time of 6:07.20, almost four seconds behind gold medalists Great Britain, who won with a time of 6:03.97. The victory clinched the host's fourth straight Olympic gold medal in the event. Australia were awarded the silver with a time 6:05.19.
The four-member team of Philadelphia, PA native Glenn Ochal, Henrik Rummel, Charlie Cole and Scott Gault started off the 2000-meter course in third place, and held that position for the entire race. With the exception of a small run between the 1000-meter and the 1500-meter marks, the United States were never able to close in on either the Australians and the Britons and kept the Greeks from overtaking their spot on the podium.
