Robert ("Bob") Lynn Clotworthy (born May 8, 1931 in Newark, New Jersey) was a diver from the United States, who represented his native country at two consecutive Summer Olympics, starting in 1952. He won the bronze medal at his Olympic debut in Helsinki, Finland in the men's springboard event, followed by the gold medal, four years later in Melbourne, Australia in the same event. Diving for Ohio State University, Clotworthy was the NCAA springboard champion in 1952. He also won the national 3-meter springboard championship in 1951, 1953, and 1956 and the 1-meter championship in 1953 and 1956. Clotworthy competed in the 1955 Pan-American Games in Mexico City, where he met Cynthia Gill, a member of the U. S. swimming team. They were married the following year. After retiring from competition, Clotworthy coached at the United States Military Academy, Dartmouth College, Princeton University, Arizona State University, and the University of Texas. From 1981 through 1984, he produced six NAIA champions at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire.
