Brothers Martin and Valent Sinković convincingly won a place in the double sculls final at the second World Cup in Poznan!
In their semi-final race, which we can call the final before the final, the Sinković brothers won with a time of 6:13.29, ahead of the Polish crew (6:15.46) and the Dutch crew (6:16.24). In the second group, the crews of Australia, Germany, and the Netherlands also won a spot in the final.
“We are very pleased with the race. We felt good, we controlled from the very beginning and showed what our best rowing is. There is still room for progress in the final, but it was a strong group and we believe that the Dutch and the Polish crews will be the strongest in the competition tomorrow,” said Valent Sinković.
“We expected one tough race from the start, and in the end, it was controlled from the start. We are very satisfied, we enjoyed rowing, tomorrow we are going to row even better and we hope to win!” said Martin Sinković.
The final race is scheduled for tomorrow, June 19 at 11:38, and you can follow the race on the official website www.worldrowing.com
