Philippa Kate Roles OLY (1 March 1978 – 21 May 2017) was a Welsh discus thrower who competed at two Olympic and four Commonwealth Games. Philippa was the first athlete, in any event, to win a AAA's gold medal at every age group, and was British junior athlete of the year - an honour presented at Buckingham Palace. Philippa was the first British discus thrower to medal at junior European level; and narrowly missed out on a medal at under 23 level, finishing 4th. In spite of a serious knee injury Philippa was one of the best performing British track and field athletes at the 2004 Athens Olympic Games, finishing 16th in the discus.
