17 from 18 GB Rowing Crews still in world cup running
Three more GB crews are into the world cup semi-finals after some solid performances in the afternoon’s world rowing cup session in Lucerne but Olympic bronze medal single sculler Alan Campbell was not amongst them.
Campbell raced in pouring rain on the Rotsee and, sitting in fourth throughout his quarter-final, he could not find enough speed in the final 500m to overhaul Frenchman-turned-Canadian Julien Bahain to gain a semi-final qualifying slot in a race won by Dutchman Roel Braas.
Earlier the top-ranked GB men’s pair of James Foad and Matt Langridge were comfortable winners in their quarter-final in which the second-ranked GB boat of Oliver Cook and Phil Congdon battled up into the third qualifying slot.
Jamie Kirkwood and Will Fletcher were comfortable winners of their repechage of the lightweight men’s double scull and move on to tomorrow’s semi-finals.
The coxed men’s pair of Alan Sinclair, Scott Durant and Henry Fieldman were second in their “official practice” for Sunday’s final. They and the women’s eight have straight finals here.
This afternoon’s qualifiers bring GB’s semi-finalists tomorrow to 10 crews with three already qualified for finals from the morning session – the men’s four, women’s pair and men’s eight. Two more GB crews will race repechages tomorrow.
It was a bright day’s performance overall, therefore, from one of the nation’s strongest Olympic sports on the opening day of the season’s final world cup despite the unusually grey backdrop in a rainy Switzerland.
The men’s four of Alex Gregory, Mohamed Sbihi, George Nash and Andrew Triggs Hodge are already European, world cup and Henley winners this season and never looked troubled today as they won their men’s four heat in 6:00.45 ahead of the Netherlands and Canada.
By contrast there were brief moments on the Rotsee when the Olympic Champion women’s pair of Helen Glover and Heather Stanning were challenged by the second-ranked New Zealand boat before closing out the win in 7:13.07 by three seconds.
The British men’s eight, also Henley winners, have been reshuffled since World Cup II in Aiguebelette three weeks ago. Today they were narrowly beaten in the heats by Russia but their second place was enough to see them through.
The men’s quadruple scull of Graeme Thomas, Sam Townsend, Charles Cousins and Peter Lambert, world cup winners in France last month, were one of the early heat winners and looked on good form.
But Townsend cautioned: “It will only get hotter tomorrow and the next day”. The Reading man was not referencing the weather. “The other crews will step up and the competition will be fiercer. Today we got out into a lead in the first half and then looked to build on it. it was a decent enough race”, he said.
Britain’s lightweight men’s four of Mark Aldred, Peter and Richard Chambers and Chris Bartley all looked in fine fettle as they seek to improve on their world cup bronze of three weeks ago. They won their heat, coming through the French to take the top spot.
Imogen Walsh and Olympic champion Kat Copeland were strong heat winners, too, in the lightweight women’s double scull.
Jonny Walton and John Collins continue to make an impact in their debut senior season with a heat win in the men’s double scull event.
Sam Scrimgeour and Jonno Clegg set the bar at the very beginning of the day by winning their heat of the lightweight men’s pair in the opening British event of the day.
Of the already-qualified semi-finalists and finalists seven crews were heat winners: the women’s pair, men’s four, men’s double and quad, the lightweight women’s double and the lightweight men’s pair and four.
Only the women’s lightweight and open weight quadruple scull crews still have repechages tomorrow, having missed out on straight progression today.
For the past decade the World Cup here in Lucerne has been contested largely under blue skies and sweltering temperatures. So the weather has become somewhat of a talking point for rowers and spectators alike. Heavy showers are likely to pepper the weekend’s programme.
This event is the final world cup of the 2014 season. It will be televised in highlights format by BBC TV Sport on Monday. British crews will have to wait until Thursday of next week (17 July) to find out if they have done enough to be selected into the World Championships team. The crews will be announced at a press conference at Caversham, near Reading.

RACE REPORTS
Sam Scrimgeour and Jonno Clegg opened the GB Rowing Team’s racing programme under dark skies and heavy rain in the lightweight men’s pair heats this morning on Lucerne’s Rotsee.
The weather didn’t dampen their form and they led throughout to win in 6:41.73 from France’s Clement Duret and Theopile Onfroy who were silver medallists in Aiguebelette at World Cup II three weeks ago.
Adam Freeman Pask came through strongly at the finish of his lightweight single scull heat this morning to take second place in 7:10.91. Fourth at halfway, he came through Australia’s James Wilson, the early leader to book his semi-final place.
James Foad and Matt Langridge, recently selected together as a pair, were also strong finishers this morning, overhauling Italy in the final 250m, in the open men’s pair heat. With 25 crews entered in a big field here, their victory this morning was enough to put them through only to a quarter-final later today.
Britain’s second-ranked men’s pair in Lucerne are Oliver Cook and Phil Congdon. They raced in the men’s eight earlier in the season, then a men’s four and are now in a pair. Today they were drawn against a top German and seasoned South African crew.
By halfway South Africa and Germany had built a lead with the GB boat four seconds behind. Germany won the race at the head of the field but Cook and Congdon still progressed safely to the quarter-finals in third place.
The stand-out crew of the season in the lightweight men’s double scull so far are Stany Delayre and Jeremie Azou. They were drawn today in the heat which also featured Jamie Kirkwood and Will Fletcher for the GB Rowing Team. At half-way it was clear the French were going to win and move into the semi-finals. The GB duo throttled down in fourth with their repechage coming later today.
Contrastingly, the lightweight women’s double scull are safely through to tomorrow’s semis. They warmed to their task in the second half of today’s heats, pulling away from Australia and South Africa to win with all three progressing.
The British quartet of Graeme Thomas, Sam Townsend, Charles Cousins and Peter Lambert, winners in Aiguebelette three weeks ago and at Henley Royal Regatta last weekend, were leaders at 500m in their heat of the quadruple scull this morning. At halfway the Australians in the adjacent lane seemed to have their noses marginally in front. Ultimately the GB boat pulled out to win with the fast-finishing New Zealanders nipping in to take second with a zippy sprint from 250m out.
John Collins and Jonny Walton, the Leander Club duo who have impressed as newcomers this season, were race leaders throughout today’s men’s double scull heat and kept New Zealand at bay to win in 6:30.39 and move into the semis.
They were followed down the Lucerne course by the lightweight men’s four of Mark Aldred, brothers Peter and Richard Chambers and Chris Bartley. This combination were bronze medallists in Aiguebelette at World Cup II behind New Zealand and Denmark and were clearly disappointed at that result. Today they were second to France for the first 1250m before moving up a gear to go through them and on to win in 6:07.34. The result puts them through to tomorrow’s semis.
Alan Campbell will race a quarter-final at the end of the early evening session today having won his men’s single scull heat with comfort this morning.
The women’s pair Helen Glover and Heather Stanning, the Olympic Champions, were somewhat challenged in the final stages of their heat this morning with New Zealand’s second-ranked pair of Grace Prendergast and Kerri Gowler before pulling ahead to win and moving direct into Sunday’s final.
Fresh from their win at Henley Royal Regatta, the men’s four of Alex Gregory, Mohamed Sbihi, George Nash and Andrew Triggs Hodge continued their unbeaten progress so far this season by developing an early and strong lead from which they built a platform to take the heat win ahead of Holland and move into Sunday’s final.
The second-ranked GB women’s quadruple scull here in Lucerne is made up of lightweight scullers Ruth Walczak, Eleanor Piggott, Brianna Stubbs and Charlotte Taylor. Ruled out of racing in their own weight category they are taking on the challenge of the open weight category instead. Today they battled gamely in the far lane but finished fifth and will now race a repechage tomorrow as only two crews went through direct to Sunday’s final. The race was won by Germany with New Zealand second.
In the other semi-final the British open weight quadruple scull were well in contention in the opening phases of their heat before dropping back somewhat and finishing fourth. They will also race the repechage.
In the final race of the opening session the GB men’s eight, who also raced at Henley at the weekend, took a little time to challenge Russia, the early leaders, before coming up on them strongly in the second half. Ultimately the Russians had enough beans to hold on to win but the GB boat’s second place was enough to book passage into Sunday’s final.
The afternoon session opened under briefly brightening skies with a race for lanes which saw the GB coxed pair of Scott Durant, Alan Sinclair and Henry Fieldman track home the German winners.
Both British men’s pairs here were drawn in the same quarter-final. James Foad and Matt Langridge headed the race for much of the 2000m course just as the sun made its first appearance of the day. Behind them the second-ranked men’s pair of Oliver Cook and Phil Congdon put in a strong second half to qualify in third slot. Serbia split the two British crews.
Alan Campbell was last in action for the GB squad today. His race was played out in heavy rain and under gloomy skies. Campbell’s result matched that mood. The 2012 Olympic bronze medalist is struggling to find his best form in 2014. He was surprisingly fourth in the quarter-finals today to end his Lucerne efforts.
BBC TV will cover World Rowing Cup III with a highlights programme on Monday 14 July from 16.00 – 17.30. The day’s delay is to avoid clashing with the world cup football final.
The GB Rowing Team’s para crews are not racing here but will their World Championships line-ups will also be announced on Thursday (17 July).
