Rupert Staudinger (born 15 July 1997) is a British luger. He competed in the men's singles event at the 2018 Winter Olympics.[1] Since no British athlete qualified for the 2014 Winter Olympics, luge did not receive UK Sport funding for the 2018 Olympic cycle. Staudinger still qualified for the 2018 Winter Olympics, and finished in 33rd despite posting his best time.[2]
