Mathew "Mat" Fraser (born 1990) is a United States CrossFit competitor known for winning the 2016 CrossFit Games[1][2][3] and taking second place at the 2014[4] and 2015 CrossFit Games. After a strong performance in 2014, and the retirement of 4-time defending champion Rich Froning Jr., he was a favorite[5] to win in 2015, but was edged out in the final event by Ben Smith. The following year, Fraser took first place by a commanding margin, and Smith took second.
