Arnaud Gauthier-Rat: From European Medals to Paris 2024 Glory 🇫🇷

In this third episode of the Beach Secrets Podcast, host DJ Klasnic sits down with Arnaud Gauthier-Rat, the most accomplished beach volleyball player France has ever produced. A European medalist, World Tour medalist, and Paris 2024 Olympian, Arnaud continues to write history for French beach volleyball — both on and off the sand. This conversation takes you deep inside his story — how he discovered volleyball, transitioned from indoor to the beach, and climbed the global ranks to become one of the world’s top defenders. Arnaud opens up about his journey through the CEV and FIVB World Tour, the emotional highs of winning international medals, and the challenges of representing France on the biggest stages. We also unpack one of the most talked-about moments leading up to the Paris 2024 Olympics — when the French federation faced the difficult decision of choosing which team would represent the host nation. Arnaud reveals what that moment felt like, how he handled the pressure, and what it means to compete in the Games on home soil. Finally, Arnaud shares his thoughts on the future of the sport, his own ambitions beyond Paris 2024, and the mindset and technical precision that have defined his career. From hard work and humility to strategic mastery, this episode captures the essence of an athlete still chasing greatness. 🎧 Listen or watch now on: 🔹 YouTube 🔹 Spotify 🔹 Apple Podcasts 🔹 Amazon Music 🔹 Podbean 👉 Listen anywhere → https://linktr.ee/djklasnic 🌿 Sponsored by Polar Gold Extracts A huge thank-you to our partner Polar Gold Extracts, proud sponsor of the Beach Secrets Podcast.
