@bovidae So that race was 50m too long for a medal.
Yes. The only swimmer slower in the last 50 m was the winner!

Needs to work on his butterfly.
Probably blew his load a bit last night in the heats. But with no semis it’s very difficult to ease off.

How utterly ridiculous that they can’t take off their masks on the podium.

Brooke Donoghue and Hannah Osborne finish second in the SF to advance to the women's double sculls final.
We're they the higher ranked crew? That Romanian crew was way too strong
Remember they swapped out Loe for Osborne so it isn't the WC-winning crew. They are in the final - a new race now.

Seems ridiculous too that final wasn’t in tonight’s session which is normally the case

As I said before, it's all to do with having the finals broadcast in the evening for the US market. They must pay the IOC the big money.
