IN DOMINATING THE women’s single sculls semi-final, Sanita Puspure has not only advanced through to this weekend’s World Rowing Championships final, but secured her ticket for Tokyo 2020.
Puspure needed to finish in the top nine to qualify for next summer’s Olympics and did so in emphatic fashion, beating second-place New Zealand to first with more than four seconds to spare.
Her success followed that of the men’s pair of Ronan Byrne and Philip Doyle in Austria, as they also qualified for the 2020 Games courtesy of their semi-final win on Friday morning.
Meanwhile, 21-year-old Katie O’Brien won Ireland’s first medal at the championships as she claimed bronze in the PR2 W1x final.

The only table they have topped in quite a while
The glazers.
With such a loss they still pay out 33m in dividends, robbers !
And Casemeiro claims he didn’t move there for the money. Laughable.
It’s the American way. God knows who they owe this “debt ” to. Anyone thinking club is in any danger is kidding themselves. They have repeatedly refused to cash in on naming rights to OT. Man utd is still a licence to print money.
All this info really shows is how ridiculously overpaid a huge amount of average players are
@Shane Obrien: As interest rates head up the debt will get worse. They need to invest £1B in stadium.
They took a punt by paying well over the odds for this summer’s signings. If they don’t make top for CL money debit will have to be amortised over a longer period, and stadium investment put on long finger.
No CL and stadium on long finger will put them in competitive disadvantage compared with CL clubs.
