That was nice and relaxing from Martin. Lovely to watch.

He did not disturb the action of the German, who was light years ahead

Well done Namibia. Straight into the quarters.

I hope Damir Martin goes all the way to gold this time. So unlucky with the finish in Rio. Same story, I hope, as with the Bulgarian rower Neykova who lost in Athens by virtue of centimetres but came back to Beijing and won the gold.

New Olympic Best for France. Why is it an OB and not an OR though, what's the difference

Because each course is different, it’s not controlled conditions like swimming, athletics etc.

I always felt he got robbed there, as the World Rowing themselves had a precedent at some Junior Worlds when a dead-heat result in shared medals.

 

And to think swimming and bobsleigh are only too happy to share as many medals as possible for their 30-60 seconds efforts...
