Tandem Sprint (Professionals), Men

Date	10 September 1900
Status	Olympic (non-medal)
Location	Vélodrome Municipal de Vincennes, Paris
Participants	54 from 14 countries

This event had a large field, with 27 tandems from 13 countries racing, which required nine heats of three tandems each in the first round. The winner of each heat advanced to one of the three semi-finals, with the three winners of the semis advancing to the finals. The heats and semi-finals were raced over 1,000 metres while the final was at 2,000 metres.

On paper, the American team of Tom Cooper and Floyd McFarland looked strongest, but they lost out in the third semi-final, which was won by a mixed national team of Dutch rider Harry Meijers and Italian Gian Ferdinando Tommaselli.

In the final, Meijers and Tommaselli faced a French team of Jean-Baptiste Louvet and, probably, the strongest sprinter in the event, Edmond Jacquelin. In the sprint, the team of Anton Huber of Germany and Franz Seidl of Austria led out, but Meijers and Tommaselli were too strong and came around them to win the final narrowly, with Louvet and Jacquelin not contesting the last 100 metres as they were well back. Meijers and Tommaselli won 2,000 francs for winning, with 1,000 francs going to Huber and Seidl.
