Tuke with Burling was co-captain of the New Zealand team at the 2016 Olympics.[4] They are just the 4th New Zealand flagbearers to win a gold medal at the same Olympics.[5]

Burling and Tuke won the 2016 Olympics with two races to spare[6] and by an overall 43 point margin[1] – winning by the most points of any sailing class in the Olympics since 1968 (when the modern scoring system started).[7] They finished ahead of the second placed (Australian) boat in 11 of the 13 races, being behind by just three points in race 3 and one point in race 10.

Tuke and Burling won Silver at the 2021 Tokyo Olympics, missing the gold medal on countback.

Burling and Tuke were named New Zealand sports Team of the Year at the Halberg Awards in Feb 2017.[8]

At the 2012 London Olympics, Burling and Tuke were the youngest team. Their silver medal was New Zealand's 100th Olympic medal.[9]

Tuke and Burling are the first sailors to win six 49er class World Championships (2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2019 and 2020). They won all 28 of the major regattas in the 49er between the London Olympics (2012) and the Rio Olympics (2016). The only 49er regatta they did not win in the four-year period was third place at a short training regatta in July 2016. In 2013, Tuke was a member of the New Zealand team which won the inaugural Red Bull Youth America's Cup.

In November 2015 the International Sailing Federation announced that Tuke and Burling were the ISAF Rolex World Male Sailors of the year.[10]

Burling and Tuke were named as Members of the New Zealand Order of Merit for services to sailing in the New Years Honours 2017.[11]

Tuke is a member of Emirates Team New Zealand that have won the 35th America's Cup, 36th America's Cup and recently the 37th America's Cup. He sailed on Mapfre, finishing second in the 2017–18 Volvo Ocean Race.[12]
