Five heat wins for GB at World U23s
Great Britain’s squad picked up five heat wins in Thursday morning’s heats at the World U23 Championships in Hazewinkel, Belgium with the women’s quadruple scull’s victory making them the first British boat to qualify directly to a final.
鈥淲e have made a promising start鈥, said GB Performance Director, David Tanner. 鈥淭here were some creditable wins which is always good鈥.
The other heat winners were Sophie Hosking in the lightweight women’s single scull, the lightweight men’s pair, Alex Gregory in the open men’s single scull and the lightweight men’s four.
The only disappointment of the morning was probably the men’s four who were tipped to do better than their third place which puts them through to fight out a repechage if they wish to go further.
