Rowing WR World Championships 2023

I keep mentioning that our W2X girls are 20 yo and 18 yo, but actually they are 20 and 17 

 

At this point just invite the Kyridou sisters next year and have them do W2X and they will 95% qualify. I don't know the details of the drama but having them and Anastasiadou/Bourmpou compete with each other for the W2- spot is so dumb when they can clearly be used in another boat class.

 

And as of now it looks like even if Anastasiadou/Bourmpou win the quota for Greece, they will have internal races against the Kyridou sisters to see who goes to Paris 

 

The simple solution is just to have one of the teams compete in W2X this way all four of them can go to the Olympics, otherwise with the current format two very good rowers will miss out on the Olympics.

Quick question: can previous sessions (i.e. the previous days and specifically the A-B semis) be rewatched somewhere?

Not yet, but they usually unlock the videos here not long after the event

Yes, They are under the photos and videos tab on the world rowing championships page. Tricky to navigate but they are all there.

IOC still hasn't made a decision on the participation of Russia (and Belarus) at the Olympics, so I'm assuming if Russia places within the top 3, only two quotas will get awarded, with the third being handed out after a decision has been made?
