History from Wikipedia::

Since the second half of the 19th century, Putney has been a significant centre for rowing.

The bridge was the starting point for The Boat race from 1845 until the new iron aqueduct was built just upstream in 1856, after which this became the starting point.

The competitors are currently 32 men of the universities of Oxford and Cambridge with two crews of first and second eights. Women's eights competed in an equivalent race for the first time in 2015, having since 1927 competed a shorter varsity race in Henley also in the early spring.
