Career
Sverri S. Nielsen began his rowing career in the Faroe Islands competing in Faroese wooden rowing boats with 6 or 8 rowers and a cox;[5] he was also training indoor rowing in the Faroe Islands as well as outdoor rowing. In 2011 he won the C.R.A.S.H.-B.Sprints World Indoor Rowing Championships for Junior Men.[6] He is a member of the Danish National rowing team, he currently competes in Single sculler, heavy weight, he has also competed in double sculler.
Results in Indoor Rowing - Danish record holder
Nielsen is the current Danish record holder in the men's indoor rowing, heavy weight, he broke a nine-year old Danish record in January 2015[7] and improved the same record in January 2016 in the time 5.51.6[8] and again in January 2017 in the time 5:49.20,[9] and in February 2017 at the European Indoor Rowing Championship, which he won in the time 5:47.9.[10]

He missed the Olympic qualification for the 2016 Summer Olympics by less than one second, when he came in as number four at the finale qualification race for the Olympics.[13] Denmark and all other nations were not allowed to have more than two boats in the men's and women's single sculler and double lightweight sculler. But because or the new rule of diversity, Denmark gained another place for one of their boat for the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio; this happened when Belgium won two competition in the men's single and double scullers at the final qualification race, but were only allowed to take one of the two boats to Rio. It was therefore up Belgium to decide, whether Denmark should have the men's single sculler or double sculler to the Olympics. Belgium chose to take their single sculler, and therefore Sverri Nielsen could not compete at the Olympics 2016, instead the extra place went to Mads Rasmussen and Rasmus Quist.[14]
