Its a shame the woman's sculls cant also do a 1000m, 500m, 2500m, forward, backwards as well...then we could clean up in the medals like the other countries do in swimming...
At least we have the kayaking to come, Lisa "Big guns" Carrington must be a serious contender again

They kind of have that in the kayaking.

They do, but not 6 or 7 gold medal opportunity kind.
They need to throw in some team versions, backwards, and about another 4 or 5 distances... -

What a 100m freestyle final.
Dressell wins it with an Olympic record whilst Aussie Kyle Chalmers only swam .06 seconds behind in trying to defend his Rio gold.
Thought he had him but Dressel held on. Dressel will clean up after this.

It really would. I'd watch that. They could ditch a few of the other sports to accommodate.

Or simply hold individual races in 500m increments up to say 3km - that'll do it!
