Another podium for Olaf Tufte  It's amazing that at 42 years old he is again competitive!

2 medals in Olympic events is great for us. We have a lot of new crews who have moved to Olympic categories so it will be interesting to see how they will progress over the next few years. It won't be easy that's for sure.

Looks like Canada's men's eight (with a female cox) is back on the world stage, after progressing to the A final at the World Cup.

Gold for the O'Donovan brothers 

And a great silver for Sanita, just 0.23 from the gold medal 

 

Two x 9th places and a 10th place too in Olympic disciplines. Very pleasing results

Exceted about the german future in this sport. Men's eight and women's quadruple sculls are where they should be and finally a great talent in men's single sculls, only men's quadruple sculls is a bit worrying. I thought that Naske would end the german drought in men's single sculls, but apparently it will be Zeidler. Considering the age of the other top guys and the fact that Zeidler started rowing only 18 months ago, i see a good chance for him to medal in 2020, winning the first german medal in men's single sculls since 2000 and maybe even the first german gold in this event since 1992. Now that the qualification for the world championships is over, i hope that Naske and the second german team in women's quadruple sculls will be used to strengthen other boats.
