Athletic careerDoubell was born in Melbourne, was educated at Melbourne High School[2] and graduated from the University of Melbourne, where he had come under the tutelage of Austrian-born coach Franz Stampfl.[2] Doubell's first major international victory in 800 metres was at the World Student Games in Tokyo in 1967 in a time of 1:46.7. His next season (the Olympic season) was severely curtailed by Achilles' tendon injuries, and he was unable to compete for six months prior to the Olympic Games in Mexico City.[1] Doubell, however, was able to recover in time for Mexico City and won the 800 m gold medal, passing the pre-race favourite Wilson Kiprugut of Kenya down the straight to win in a world record equalling time of 1:44.3.[1] Doubell also won the 800 metres gold medal at the 1969 Pacific Conference Games in a time of 1:48.0.[3] Doubell had planned to compete at the 1972 Olympics in Munich, but was prevented in doing so by calf injuries, which brought on his retirement from competitive athletics.[4] Post-athletic careerAfter retirement from sports, Doubell enrolled at Harvard Business School. He then worked as a Head of Relationship Management and a Director and Divisional Head of Corporate and Institutional Banking of the Deutsche Bank Group in Australia. He was a Director of Telstra Stadium in Sydney until 2007.[1] Doubell was inducted into the Sport Australia Hall of Fame in 1985.[4] On 12 June 2006, in the Queen's Birthday Honours List, he was made a Member (AM) of the Order of Australia, for "services to athletics through administrative roles, particularly with Athletics New South Wales, and as a competitor".[5] References1. ^1 2 3 [https://www.sports-reference.com/olympics/athletes/do/ralph-doubell-1.html Ralph Doubell]. sports-reference.com 2. ^The Sports Factor – Ralph Doubell & Franz Stampfl. abc.net.au. 12 January 2001 3. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.gbrathletics.com/ic/pcg.htm |title=Pacific Conference Games |accessdate=25 February 2013}} 4. ^1 2 {{cite web |url=http://www.sahof.org.au/hall-of-fame/member-profile/?memberID=63&memberType=athlete |title=Ralph Doubell AM – Athletics |publisher=Sport Australia Hall of Fame |accessdate=25 February 2013}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.gg.gov.au/sites/default/files/files/honours/qb/qb2006/Media%20Notes%20AM%28A-I%29.pdf#page=29|title=The Queen's Birthday 2006 Honours List, Member (AM) in the General Division of the Order of Australia: Mr Ralph Douglas Doubell|format=pdf|page=65|website=Governor-General of the Commonwealth of Australia|publisher=Commonwealth of Australia|accessdate=30 November 2015}} External links
