Media Guide 2016 Olympic & Paralympic Rowing Regatta RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL, OLYMPIC GAMES 6-14 AUGUST PARALYMPIC GAMES 9-11 SEPTEMBER
Our future With FISA’s 125th anniversary coming up in 2017, one can sense the tremendous history in our sport. As a sport of tradition, values, determination and hard work, rowing is sure to continue to be practised by generation after generation. And to ensure our sport remains relevant for all those future participants, we continue to develop it around the world, strive for gender equality, and achieve full and equal representation at all levels. FISA will continue to lead the fight against doping, practise good governance, and always put the health and well-being of rowers first. Looking to the future and considering that water makes our sport possible, rowers also care deeply about the planet on which we live. One of the greatest challenges

of our time is to ensure there is enough clean water to support human life. As the World Rowing Federation and as rowers, we believe that we have a responsibility to protect this vital resource. Now, in the sixth year of our global freshwater partnership with the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF), we have launched a joint action project; the Kafue River & Rowing Centre. Funds are now being raised to create this multi-purpose facility for water management research, stakeholder involvement and the development of rowing in Kafue, Zambia.

1. General 1.1 Introduction Welcome to the 2016 Olympic Rowing Regatta at Rodrigo de Freitas Lagoon, in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The World Rowing communications team has produced this media guide to help you get the most out of your time covering the Olympic Rowing Regatta. It is packed with information about the sport of rowing and aims to aid those unfamiliar with our sport as well as those who are experienced rowing specialists. If you are new to rowing you may find the explanation of “How to Row,” the rowing glossary and the Olympic competition description useful. The World Rowing communications team is on site in the Lagoa Stadium media centre to answer any questions you may have and to help you better understand our sport. The 2016 Olympic Rowing Regatta will see 550 athletes competing in 215 boats from 69 nations in 14 boat classes. These athletes have come through a qualification system to be eligible to compete at Rio. Leading up to Rio through the 2016 season, New Zealand topped the points table of the 2016 World Rowing Cup series with 119 points, despite only racing at two of the three stages. Great Britain finished four points behind the Kiwi team in second position overall, while the Netherlands finished third. New Zealand was particularly strong in the men’s single sculls with multi Olympic and world medallist Mahe Drysdale taking two gold medals, the men’s pair of Eric Murray and Hamish Bond who have remained unbeaten since 2009 and the up-and-coming lightweight men’s four who also won two gold medals at World Cup level. The Netherlands topped the World Cup standings in the men’s eight by winning two World Cup golds. The Dutch also had a strong season in the lightweight women’s double sculls thanks to the European Championship and World Cup gold medals won by Maaike Head and Ilse Paulis. Great Britain was the nation that collected the most medals at this season’s European Rowing Championships with a total of six medals in Olympic boat classes, including three gold. Their strongest boat this season has been the women’s pair of Helen Glover and Heather Stanning, who are unbeaten in this Olympic cycle. The men’s four claimed the European Champion title as well as two World Cup golds, and the women’s eight also won at the Europeans. Germany followed Great Britain on the medals table at the European Rowing Championships with the highest number of medals won overall in Olympic boat classes (8), including two golds. These came in the men’s eight and women’s quadruple sculls. This guide also includes a “Who to Watch” section which highlights crews that are likely to win Olympic medals. We have also singled out athletes in this predominantly team sport and highlighted them in the “Rowers in the Spotlight” section. In the “Historical Results” and “Statistics” sections you’ll find a host of valuable past performance information related to the Olympic and Paralympic Games and World Rowing Championships. The 2016 Paralympic Rowing Regatta will see 108 athletes competing in 48 boats from 26 nations in four boat classes. Strong nations include Australia, Great Britain and Ukraine with Brazil well represented. Here is to some excellent racing and rowing coverage!

1.2 FISA What is FISA? The World Rowing Federation, FISA (from the French, Fédération Internationale des Sociétés d’Aviron), is the governing body of the sport of rowing. It is empowered by its 148 member National Rowing Federations, the National Olympic Committees and the International Olympic Committee to govern the sport of rowing. FISA sets the rules and regulations for the practice of the sport in all its forms (elite, para-rowing, coastal, masters and some aspects of indoor). It organises sanctioned World Rowing events including those for junior and under-23s. It provides advice and expertise for the organisation of rowing regattas, on coaching education and other matters relating to the sport and its development. FISA was founded by representatives from Belgium, France, Italy, Switzerland and Adriatica (now a part of Italy) in Turin, Italy on 25 June 1892. It is the oldest international sports federation in the Olympic movement. FISA established its first headquarters in Lausanne, Switzerland in 1922 and, after moving away, it returned to its roots in February 1996. FISA’s vision The goals and objectives of FISA are to efficiently develop, promote, present, govern and protect the environment through the sport of rowing.

Rowing
2. Rowing 2.1 About rowing The origin of rowing The boat was mankind’s most significant mode of transport for centuries and the oar is considered to be the most important invention before the wheel. The first representation of a rowing boat was discovered in Finland and dates back to 5,800 BC. The earliest regatta was held on 16 September 1274 in Venice, Italy, where regattas developed as challenges between gondoliers and boatmen in a variety of rowing boats. Rowing has evolved all over the world wherever people and water mix. The origin of the sport of rowing as we know it today comes from England, where the world-renowned Oxford versus Cambridge University Boat Race was first held in 1829 on the River Thames. Rowing at the Olympic & Paralympic rowing regattas Rowing became an Olympic sport in 1896, at the first Olympic Games of the modern era held in Athens, Greece. Rough seas in the Piraeus harbour, however, forced the event to be cancelled which is why rowing won its first Olympic medals four years later in 1900, on the outskirts of Paris. Women’s events were added to the Olympic programme in 1976 and lightweight events in 1996. Para-rowing first appeared at the Paralympic Games in 2008. Rowing at the World Rowing Championships The first World Rowing Championships were staged in Lucerne, Switzerland in 1962. Initially held every four years, the championships soon became an annual event. It is the biggest annual World Rowing event. At the 2015 World Rowing Championships 77 nations raced with a total of 1300 athletes. Female boat classes were included on the World Championship programme in 1974, with lightweight categories for both men and women featuring annually from 1985. Para-rowing was integrated into the World Rowing Championships programme for the first time in 2002 and has attracted an increasing number of participants ever since. In non-Olympic years, both Olympic and international boat classes compete at the World Rowing Championships, while in Olympic years only international boat classes take part.

The boats Boats or shells were traditionally made from wood, but top level boats are now fabricated from composite materials such as carbon fibre and kevlar. The width of boats varies from approximately 30 cm for a single scull and up to 65 cm for an eight. Lengths of the different boat types are shown in the diagrams on p13. A small fin is fitted beneath the boat for directional stability. A rudder is attached to the fin or the stern for steering (except on most sculling boats). A white ball is attached to the bow for safety as well as for judging precision of the start and finish of races. A splashboard prevents waves from splashing water aboard. Seats are fitted with wheels which roll on runners or tracks. The oars Oars are hollow to reduce weight and attached to the boat by adjustable outriggers. The size and shape of oars is unrestricted, the average length of a sweep oar is 3.70 m and of a scull 2.85 m.
2.2 Olympic boat classes Rowing events are either sculling or sweep events. In sculling (denoted by an ‘x’), each rower has two oars whereas in sweep rowing (denoted by a ‘-‘ for boats without coxswains and ‘+’ for coxed boats) each person in the boat has one oar. Men

Event Information
3.3 Progression system and rules The regatta All international races are contested over 2000m (or 1000m for para-rowing) on a 6-lane course. Depending upon the number of entries in each boat class, there will be heats, repechages, quarterfinals, semifinals and finals. A-finals (medals and ranking 1 – 6) and B-finals (ranking 7 – 12) will be contested in all boat classes with eight or more entries. Where 14 or more crews are entered, C, D, E etc. finals will be contested. Each boat is drawn into a first-round race (the heat) with progression to further rounds depending on placings and the number of entries in accordance with the FISA progression system. Rowing follows a unique format in that crews have the benefit of a second chance if they are not successful in their first round heat. The repechage, loosely translated from French as “second chance,” is the name for the second round of competition which ensures that every crew has a second chance to advance from the preliminary races to the next round. Round 1
Heats – after the initial round of heats, every unsuccessful crew has a second chance to advance in the repechage round.
Round 2
Repechages – second chance to advance.
Round 3
Quarterfinals (If a boat class has less than 25 boats competing, there are no quarterfinals).
Round 4
Semifinals (If a boat class has less than 13 boats competing, there are no semifinals).
Round 5
Finals - A, B, C and D Finals (In principle, there are no more than six boats per final. The top six boats in the qualification rounds compete in the A-final, the next six in the B-final, etc. Only the rowers who finish in the top three places of the A Final win a medal).
Note: The rounds to which crews advance after each race and the number of crews advancing depends on the number of boats entered in each event as defined in the FISA progression system and is shown on the start lists and result lists. A full description of the progression system can be found in Appendix 6 of the FISA Rules of Racing. Lanes There are normally eight buoyed lanes, of which six are used at one time for racing. Each lane is 13.5 m wide. A draw is conducted before the beginning of racing to determine the allocation of crews to heats and to lanes within each heat. A seeding panel determines in advance which crews will be seeded. There will normally be two seeded crews in each heat. The purpose of seeding is only to avoid having all the faster boats in an event being drawn into the same heat in the first round. Dead-heat rules and procedures If there is a dead-heat between crews, and if only one of those crews progresses to the next round, there are several options to resolve it depending on the round of the competition. If the dead-heat occurs in a heat (the 1st round), crews row a 2000 m race again in order to determine which crew should progress. In a repechage, quarterfinal or semifinal there will be no re-row but the crew which has the higher ranking in the immediately preceding round will progress. Only if crews have the same ranking in both the preceding and next previous rounds shall they then have to re-row to resolve the dead-heat. If, in a final, there is a dead-heat both crews will be given equal placing and the next placing left vacant with no re-row. If the tied placing is for a medal position, additional medals will be awarded.

Competition schedule contingency plan As for any outdoor sporting event, it is possible that the competition schedule may be disrupted due to adverse weather conditions. The FISA Rules allow for the implementation of certain contingency plans in order to ensure that the competition can be completed within the available days. FISA has a number of contingency plans or options that can be implemented, depending on the severity of the conditions and the threatened disruption to the competition schedule. These include: • • • • •
Changing the start times of the races and/or the intervals between races. Combining different groups on the same day. Combining two rounds in the same day. Combining finals on three days, two days or all on one day. Time trials
Crew changes Up to half of the rowers in all crews entered may be substituted. The changes must be communicated in writing to FISA at least one hour before the first heat of the event. A crew which has already raced in the heat of its event may not make changes in the crew, except in the case of illness or injury. A single sculler who entered and falls ill or is injured may be replaced before their heat. No substitution may be made for a single sculler after their first heat. Penalties / disqualification rules / exclusion The Board of the Jury may impose the following penalties: reprimand, yellow card (applying to the next round in which the crew competes), exclusion (from all the rounds of the boat class in question), relegation where this is specifically provided in the Rules (to last place in its race of that round), disqualification (from all boat classes in the regatta), or any other appropriate measure in order to assure the fairness of the competition. A crew arriving late at the start may be awarded a yellow card and the Starter may start the race without reference to absent crews. A crew causing two false starts in the same race will be excluded. A yellow card is equivalent to one false start. Crews interfering with opponents during the race may be excluded by the umpire.

2 The continental qualification regattas filled the next quota places in varying numbers. The four continental qualification regattas were: • • • •
African in Tunis, Tunisia Americas in Valparaiso, Chile Asian & Oceania in Chungju, Korea European in Lucerne, Switzerland
These were staged for the men’s and women’s single sculls and the lightweight men’s and women’s double sculls. 3 Final Olympic Qualification Regatta, Lucerne, Switzerland. Open to all nations. This included all boat classes not raced at the continental qualification regattas with a total of 12 men’s boats and ten women’s boats. 4 The remaining qualification spots are allocated to the host country if they have not achieved any qualification places through the other avenues. Tripartite Commission invitation places make up the final spots - two for men and two for women. These are through invitation and target nations that have no boats qualified for the Rio Olympics. Total number of rowers: 550 (331 men, 219 women) Paralympic Qualification: 1 2015 World Rowing Championships, Aiguebelette, France. The eight highest ranked boats in each of the following medal boat classes (men’s single, women’s single, mixed double and mixed four) qualified for the Rio 2016 Paralympic Games. 2 Final Paralympic Qualification Regatta, Gavirate, Italy The two highest ranked boats in each of the boat classes qualified for the Rio 2016 Paralympic Games. 3 Eight bipartite spots, decided by the Bipartite Commission based on invitation to member federations that had not qualified in another boat in para-rowing at the Paralympic Games. Total number of para-rowers: 84 (42 men, 42 women)

3.5 Rowing in Brazil With nearly 8,000km of coastline, hundreds of rivers, lakes and ponds, Brazil naturally lends itself to the sport of rowing. The first boat duel recorded in Brazil took place in 1851, in Rio de Janeiro’s Botafogo Bay, between longboats and whaleboats. In 1894, the first rowing governing body was established in Brazil - the Regatta Committee – through the initiative of several rowing clubs. The first Brazilian Rowing Championships were held in 1900, which led to the institution of the Brazilian Federation of Rowing Societies (FBSR) in 1902 which the World Rowing Federation (FISA), recognised the following year. In 1916, the national governance of the sport of rowing was transferred to the new Brazilian Sports Confederation (CBD) which became a FISA member in 1931. In its rowing history, Brazil only missed the Olympic Games once, in 1920, and achieved its best result so far at the Los Angeles 1984 Games where it finished fourth in the men’s coxed pair with Nilton Silva Alonço, Walter Hime Smith and Angelo Rosso Neto. Twenty years later, at the Athens Games, Brazil’s most successful international rower to date, Fabiana Beltrame, marked the debut of female Olympic participation in rowing for her country. She finished 14th in the women’s single sculls. Beltrame continued to make her nation proud in the following years, when she became the first Brazilian sculler to ever win a gold medal at a World Rowing Cup – she did so in 2011 in the lightweight women’s single sculls. Later that year she went on to become a World Champion in that same event, scoring Brazil’s best ever international rowing result. Two Brazilian line-ups - the lightweight women’s and lightweight men’s double sculls - have qualified for the Rio 2016 Olympic Games through FISA’s Americas Continental Qualification Regatta. In the past decade, Brazil has also become a strong para-rowing nation with several World Championship medals won. A Paralympic bronze medal in the para-rowing mixed double sculls was claimed at the inaugural Paralympic Rowing Regatta in 2008. Three para-rowing crews will race at Rio’s Paralympic Games – in the para women’s single sculls, men’s single sculls, and mixed double sculls. Rowing is concentrated in three main pockets in Brazil - Rio de Janeiro, Sao Paulo and Porto Alegre. In each of these regions the rowing clubs are connected to football clubs. Flamengo in Rio de Janeiro is the best known and most successful. It originally began as a rowing club in 1895 before it became better known for football. The Rio Olympic rowing regatta course at Rodrigo de Freitas Lagoon is the home of Flamengo.

4.2 Who to Watch at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games Women’s Pair (W2-) Great Britain’s Helen Glover and Heather Stanning have remained unbeatable ever since becoming Olympic Champions in front of their home crowd at the London Olympics. Their gold was also the first Olympic gold in women’s rowing for Great Britain. In this Olympic cycle, Glover has won at every World Rowing Championship - twice with Stanning. This year at World Rowing Cup III, Glover and Stanning set another World Best Time together, having previously also set one at the 2014 World Rowing Championships. They will be a hard crew to beat. Watch out though for New Zealand. They have medalled at World Championship level each year during this Olympic cycle and in 2016 have claimed two World Cup silver medals with the crew of Rebecca Scown and Genevieve Behrent. Scown and Behrent will also race in the women’s eight. The United States are always strong contenders. They won world silver in 2014 and world bronze in 2015. This season, Grace Luczak and Felice Mueller took gold ahead of New Zealand at World Rowing Cup II. Do not discount the Romanians. Elena-Lavinia Tarlea and Laura Oprea have won two bronze medals so far this season – at World Rowing Cup III and at the European Rowing Championships. Major results since 2012 Place

Men’s Pair (M2-) Who to Watch at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games
This boat class presents perhaps one of the greatest rowing partnerships of all time. New Zealand’s Hamish Bond and Eric Murray have not lost a race since they teamed up in 2009. This gives them six World Championship titles in the pair and the 2012 Olympic gold. They also hold the World Best Time and for Rio, Bond and Murray are considered the closest thing to a dead certainty for gold. Over the recent years Bond and Murray have regularly won by large margins, but that has not stopped other crews pressing hard. Pressing this season has been the Dutch combination of Mitchel Steenman and Roel Braas. So far this season Steenman and Braas have medalled at each regatta that they entered: silver at World Rowing Cup II behind the Kiwis as well as silver behind the British at World Rowing Cup I. At the European Rowing Championships they took bronze. After winning two world silvers in the past two years, the British have also been systematically reaching the podium this year, although with two different crews. At World Rowing Cup III, Alan Sinclair and Stewart Innes won bronze which booked this duo their tickets for Rio as part of the British team. Look out too for more from the Southern Hemisphere. Australia’s Spencer Turin and Alexander Lloyd improved from a fifth-place finish at World Rowing Cup II to a silver medal at the final stage of the World Rowing Cup in Poznan. And South Africa’s Lawrence Brittain and Shaun Keeling medalled at World Rowing Cup I and finished a close fourth at World Rowing Cup II. Major results since 2012 Place

Lightweight Men’s Double Sculls (LM2x) In this Olympic cycle, no one nation has fully claimed ownership of the lightweight men’s double sculls. A different crew has claimed the World Championship title each year. Norway has been scoring the most consistent results with Kristoffer Brun and Are Strandli not missing a single World Championship podium. In 2013 the Norwegians became World Champions and then took world bronze medals in the two following years. This season, the Norwegians have claimed two silver World Cup medals as well as European Championship bronze. If they medal in Rio, it will be the first for their country in this boat class at the Olympic level. France has been on the rise in the past few years. Stroke seat, Jeremie Azou has not lost a race since the beginning of the 2015 season, claiming the World Championship title in the process. In 2016 he was joined by a new partner, Pierre Houin, and together they have continued to dominate the field, claiming two World Rowing Cup gold medals. South Africa is the nation that currently holds the World Best Time, having secured it at the 2014 World Rowing Championships in the final along with the World Champion title. John Smith and James Thompson of South Africa medalled twice during this year’s World Rowing Cup season and will be looking to repeat the historic result they scored for South Africa at London 2012 in another boat class, the lightweight men’s four, when they won gold. Look out too for the British duo of William Fletcher and Richard Chambers, last year’s world silver medallists, as well as the Irish boat featuring brothers Gary and Paul O’Donovan, who took the European Championship title this year.

Lightweight Women’s Double Sculls (LW2x) Who to Watch at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games
New Zealand has had a successful Olympic cycle, with two World Championship titles from 2014 and 2015. This season, however, they have not yet scored gold with Julia Edward and Sophie MacKenzie taking two World Cup bronze medals instead. This indicates the extent of the competition in the lightweight double and there are a number of names that have a shot at the medals. South Africa’s Ursula Grobler and Kirsten McCann have scored two World Cup medals this season while 2012 Olympians, Lindsay Jennerich and Patricia Obee of Canada took gold at World Rowing Cup II. Keep an eye out too for Denmark. Juliane Rasmussen and Anne Lolk Thomsen finished ahead of New Zealand at World Rowing Cup III, winning silver. Then there are the up-and-comers, Maaike Head and Ilse Paulis from the Netherlands. They qualified at the last chance qualification regatta in May and this season have been medalling against the best crews in this boat class. At World Rowing Cup III, the Netherlands won gold ahead of the Kiwis. Not only that, they also set a new World Best Time of 6:47.69. At the European Rowing Championships, the Dutch duo claimed the title ahead of an experienced field that included the reigning Olympic Champion from Great Britain, Katherine Copeland.

Men’s Four (M4-) The most consistent World Championship medallists in this Olympic cycle have been Australia. They took silver at London 2012 and did not miss a single World Championship podium leading up to Rio, with two world silvers and one world bronze. During this year’s World Rowing Cup season, they took a bronze as well as a silver. But for 2016 it has been Great Britain winning gold with coach Juergen Grobler placing his top four sweep rowers into the boat. The British also own the current World Best Time that was set at the 2014 World Rowing Championships and this flagship crew will be looking to defend their 2012, 2008, 2004 and 2000 Olympic Champion title. Watch out too for the Italians and the Dutch. They are the reigning World Champions and this season they have continued to do well with two World Cup silver medals. The Netherlands are the 2013 World Champions and they are still going strong having made the podium twice this season. Major results since 2012 Place

Women’s Quadruple Sculls (W4x) Leading up to Rio, Germany remains the top crew to look out for. In this Olympic cycle, Germany has secured two World Rowing Championships (2013 and 2014) and one world silver (2015). They are the London Olympic silver medallists and hold a long legacy of winning in this boat class. So far this season, Germany and Poland have been at the top of the podium. Germany claimed the European Championship title followed by a World Cup silver (Lucerne) and a World Cup gold (Poznan). Poland took European silver followed by World Cup gold in Varese and another World Cup gold in Lucerne. The Polish results put them in a strong position to be the crew to really challenge the Germans. Look out too for the Netherlands who medalled at each of the three stages of the World Rowing Cup this season.

Men’s Quadruple Sculls (M4x) Leading up to Rio, Germany are again in the spotlight. They are the reigning Olympic and World Champions. Not once have they missed a World Championship podium in this Olympic cycle, making them the most predictable boat in the field. All four athletes who won Olympic gold in London are back together this season. The Germans, however, have slipped back slightly this season and only made the podium once so far. Australia, meanwhile, is looking very promising. They have won gold this season both at World Rowing Cup II and III and are also the bronze medallists from the London Olympics. Look out too for Estonia, this year’s European Champions, and fourth-place finishers from London 2012. On board for Estonia is the very experienced Tonu Endrekson who is off to his fourth Olympics. And don’t discount Great Britain, Poland and Switzerland. They have all medalled at World Cup level in 2016 and are definite Olympic medal contenders. Major results since 2012 Place

Men’s Double Sculls (M2x) Croatian brothers Martin and Valent Sinkovic, formerly part of their nation’s medal-winning quad line-up, formed a doubles duo in 2014 and have not lost a race since then. They set a new World Best Time at the 2014 World Rowing Championships becoming the first double to go under the six-minute mark. If they continue their winning ways, they will be the first Croatian boat to medal in this event at the Olympics. The closest challengers this season to the Croatians seem to be Robert Manson and Christopher Harris from New Zealand. The Kiwi duo raced at World Rowing Cup II where they took silver, and in the absence of the Croatians at World Rowing Cup III they won gold. But perhaps the time is right for Lithuania. The duo of Rolandas Mascinskas and Saulius Ritter medalled twice at the World Championship level during this Olympic cycle, taking world silver in 2013 and again in 2015. This season they raced at the European Rowing Championships and at World Rowing Cup II where they took bronze and the duo come to Rio with a history that stretches back to an A-final finish at the London Olympics. Then there are some very familiar names to spice up this boat class. Two-time Olympic Champion in the men’s single, Norway’s Olaf Tufte is back in the boat he medalled in at the Sydney 2000 Olympics. Tufte has teamed up with 2013 World Champion Kjetil Borch. Also very familiar to rowing fans is Marcel Hacker of Germany. Like Tufte, Hacker has medals from the men’s single, but he is now in the double and doing well with Stephan Krueger. Major results since 2012 Place

Women’s Double Sculls (W2x) New Zealand are the 2014 and 2015 World Champions with Zoe Stevenson and Eve MacFarlane in the boat this year. The duo, however, have been beaten this season. Poland’s Magdalena Fularczyk and Natalia Madaj have won two World Rowing Cup gold medals this year, at the first and final stages of the series. Lithuania’s Donata Vistartaite and Milda Valciukaite, the 2013 World Champions, took gold at World Rowing Cup II. Belarus are the reigning European Champions. Other World Cup medallists this season have included France, Australia who hold the World Best Time, Greece and the Netherlands. Rio will be far from a clear-cut decision in this boat class.

Lightweight Men’s Four (LM4-) The lightweight men’s four is Denmark’s flagship boat class. Historically, they are the most medalled nation in this boat class at the Olympic level. At London 2012, they won bronze and in 2008 they were the gold medallists. During this Olympic cycle, Denmark won the World Rowing Championships twice, in 2013 and 2014, and this season they took a World Cup bronze and silver. This, however, may be Switzerland’s year. In 2015 the Swiss topped the medals podium at the World Rowing Championships and so far in 2016, they have won a World Cup gold and silver medal as well as the title of European Champions. At the World Rowing Cup in Lucerne, they finished behind New Zealand. New Zealand claimed two World Championship silver medals in this Olympic cycle, in 2013 and 2014. After failing to medal in 2015 at the worlds, they came back this year in full force, claiming gold at both World Rowing Cup stages that they entered. Look out too for Great Britain. In this Olympic cycle they crossed the line in bronze medal position at both the 2013 and 2014 World Rowing Championships. This season they won European Championship silver and a World Cup bronze medal. Major results since 2012 Place

Women’s Eight (W8+) The United States has remained unbeaten for a staggering ten years straight in the women’s eight, winning all World Rowing Championships and Olympic Games during this time. Can their winning streak continue through Rio? So far this season, the US crew has raced only once and on this occasion they won just marginally ahead of Great Britain - by just eight tenths of a second. Each World Rowing regatta this season saw a different nation top the medals podium: Great Britain took the European Championship title, the Netherlands won gold at World Rowing Cup I, the United States at World Rowing Cup II and New Zealand at World Rowing Cup III. Great Britain has shown the most consistency in its results so far in 2016. As well as gold, they also took two silver medals at the World Rowing Cup level, while the Netherlands also took European silver and a World Cup bronze in Poznan. Keep an eye out too for London 2012 silver medallists, Canada. They are regularly near the front of the field and have been known to push the United States to the edge on various occasions. This boat class is shaping up to bring on some A-final surprises. Major results since 2012 Place 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

Men’s Single Sculls (M1x) A rivalry of Olympic proportions has been going on between Mahe Drysdale of New Zealand and Ondrej Synek of the Czech Republic for over a decade. The World Championship podiums have featured these two extraordinary single scullers each year since 2005, with hardly an exception and both the 2008 and 2012 Olympic podium included Drysdale and Synek. The two have amassed a total of 17 World Championship medals and four Olympic medals. But despite Drysdale being the reigning Olympic Champion, Synek may have the upper hand in Rio as he has claimed all of the World Championship titles in this Olympic cycle. Drysdale, though, is impressive. He owns the current World Best Time, which he set at the 2009 World Rowing Championships at 6:33.35, nearly two seconds faster than the one he had set three years prior. He has also won gold at this season at World Rowing Cup II ahead of Synek. If Drysdale wins gold in Rio, he will belong to the exclusive group of scullers who have become the Olympic Champion in the men’s single more than once. Look out too for Cuba’s Angel Fournier Rodriguez, a two-time world medallist, and Croatia’s Damir Martin – both scullers claimed two World Cup medals this season with Martin also claiming European Championship gold. There is also relative newcomer Hannes Obreno of Belgium there to shake up the leader board. Obreno recently finished ahead of Drysdale at the prestigious Henley Royal Regatta and he may create waves in Rio.

Women’s Single Sculls (W1x) Australia’s Kim Brennan (nee Crow) has not missed a podium spot since winning Olympic bronze at London 2012. Brennan claimed World Championship gold twice in this Olympic cycle - in 2013 and last year in 2015. Her bronze medal in London was the first Olympic medal ever won for Australia in this boat class. This season, she claimed gold at both regattas that she entered: World Rowing Cup II and III and there is little doubt that she is the one to beat. But watch out for New Zealand’s Emma Twigg. She has been on the rise since 2010, the year in which she won her first World Championship medal. Twigg finished fourth at the London Olympics and then won the world title in 2014. Despite taking a break from international competition in 2015, Twigg is back on form and will be aiming to win New Zealand’s first ever Olympic medal in this boat class. At the final stage of the 2016 World Rowing Cup in Poznan she crossed the line in silver behind Brennan. The reigning Olympic Champion Mirka Knapkova from the Czech Republic did not win a World Championship in this Olympic cycle, but she has remained a regular medal contender. Is Knapkova keeping her best for Rio? Look out too for the United States’ Genevra Stone and Switzerland’s Jeannine Gmelin. They have both medalled at the World Cup level this year. Austria’s Magdalena Lobnig, the reigning European Champion, also should not be discounted. But putting all of these athletes in perspective is 44 year old Ekaterina Karsten of Belarus. The two-time Olympic Champion in the single is racing at her seventh Olympics. Major results since 2012 Place 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12

Men’s Eight (M8+) Great Britain has had an amazing run during this Olympic cycle, winning three World Championship titles. This has pushed the London 2012 Olympic Champions, Germany into the world silver medal spot three years in a row. The deep-seated rivalry between these two crews will be part of the Rio Olympic racing. So far this year, Great Britain has not yet reached the top of the podium, while Germany has won European Championship gold and a second gold at World Rowing Cup III. Great Britain medalled at two of three regattas – taking silver at World Rowing Cup III and bronze at the European Rowing Championships. These statistics look to give Germany the upper hand, but with Olympic gold on the line, it will be hard to pick the winner. This race, however, will not just be about Great Britain and Germany. The Netherlands has proven that they will be a force to reckon with in Rio, winning gold at World Rowing Cup II ahead of Germany as well as at World Rowing Cup I. Look out too for the United States who carry a long legacy of winning Olympic gold in this boat class and also the young New Zealand crew who took a bronze medal at World Rowing Cup III.

4.3 Who to watch – Para-rowing boat classes In its third time as a Paralympic event, para-rowing has been growing in competitiveness exponentially. Leading up to this year’s Paralympic Games the tightness of racing has become evident and World Best Times continue to fall. In the Para Women’s Single Sculls (ASW1x) a relatively new sculler may be the one to reign in Rio. Rachel Morris of Great Britain came into para-rowing just a couple of seasons ago and at last year’s World Rowing Championships she took silver. Then at World Rowing Cup III in June, Morris not only won her race, but also set a new World Best Time. This pushed the 2015 World Champion, Moran Samuel of Israel into third. Samuel, though, is a formidable rower and will no doubt use her experience to make the best in Rio. Also in the mix will be Birgit Skarstein of Norway. Skarstein is the 2014 World Champion and she goes to Rio as the silver medallist from World Rowing Cup III. Keep an eye out too for Brazil’s Claudia Santos. She has competed in the A-final at both the 2008 and 2012 Paralympic Games.

A World Best Time this season for Igor Bondar of Ukraine has made him the favourite in the Para Men’s Single Sculls (ASM1x). Bondar was third at the 2015 World Rowing Championships and his World Best Time saw him win World Rowing Cup III in June. The reigning World Champion, Erik Horrie of Australia will be challenging Bondar for the top spot. Horrie is the 2012 Paralympic silver medallist and takes experience with him to Rio. Watch out too for the very experienced Tom Aggar of Great Britain. Aggar is the Paralympic Champion from 2008, but missing out on the medals in 2012 means that Aggar is back wanting more. Australia’s Gavin Bellis and Kathryn Ross are the reigning World Champions in the Para Mixed Double Sculls (TAMix2x). They have a partnership that goes back to 2012 and an A-final finish at the London Paralympics. Bellis and Ross, however, will be up against stiff competition from the French. Perle Bouge and Stephane Tardieu of France came together six years ago and they won silver at the 2012 Paralympics. More recently Bouge and Tardieu have been chasing the Australians, but at World Rowing Cup III this season, Bouge and Tardieu struck gold. It is hard to guess who will be the top boat in Rio. Keep an eye out too for Brazil’s Josiane Lima and Michel Gomes Pessanha as well as the Dutch. It will be hard to look past Great Britain in the Para Mixed Coxed Four (LTAMix4+). They are the reigning Paralympic Champions and have also won the last four World Championship titles. Illness, however, meant that they did not get to race at World Rowing Cup III. Mainstay in the boat has been Pamela Relph. Rio will be her second Paralympic Games. Canada, in the absence of Great Britain, won at World Rowing Cup III and will go to Rio with boosted confidence. Strong medal contenders are also Italy, South Africa and potentially the United States.

Sofia appeared as a 17-year-old junior on the world rowing stage in 2014. In 2015, she medalled twice: first winning silver at the World Rowing Junior Championships in the single, then claiming another silver at the senior World Rowing Championships in the double with partner Aikaterini Nikolaidou. Asoumanaki also holds the indoor rowing world record in the 17-18 age category (6:28.2).

Jeremie is one of France’s most consistent top rowers. In 2015, he and partner Stany Delayre completed an unbeaten season to become World Champions. The duo also has three European Championship titles and Jeremie is a World Champion in the lightweight single. For 2016 Jeremie has been paired up with Pierre Houin and the winning has continued.

“I am a solitary soul. I like to only be confronted with myself, to know my value and be alone on the water during morning training when the sun rises. It is both a moment of fulfilment and inner void.”
The 26-year-old sculler began competing internationally as a junior in 2007. A year later she was the Junior World Champion in the single. Then, as a 20-year-old, Carina broke into her nation’s top female boat, the quadruple sculls, winning silver at the European Rowing Championships and bronze at the World Rowing Championships. Since then, the medical student has also claimed two World Championship golds, a silver and an Olympic silver. “I like the combination of the sport and the people around it. Also, I like travelling around the world and seeing how far I can push myself.”
Hamish Bond & Eric Murray (NZL) Men’s pair Hamish and Eric’s partnership is nothing short of phenomenal. They have remained unbeaten since 2009 holding a world record for consecutive wins. They are possibly the greatest pair of all time. They own the World Best Time in the pair and also coxed pair. With one Olympic gold from 2012, Hamish and Eric are going for number two. “I think probably one of the biggest factors of our success in any year now is largely due to the work we’ve done over all of the previous years… the knowledge and experience that we’ve been able to gather in all of our time in the pair.” - Hamish People see the end results but we put in a lot of time and effort to get to this point.» - Eric

“When you’re out racing you are there by yourself and that’s a huge challenge. I think that’s what excites me about this boat class.”
Coming out of a talent identification programme, Helen is a British Rowing success story. With partner Heather Stanning they were the first female rowers to win Olympic gold in rowing for their nation. They did so in London 2012. That was just two years after coming onto the international scene. Since London Helen has remained unbeaten in the pair, winning three consecutive World Championship gold medals. She and Heather hold the World Best Time of 06:50.61.

“We take nothing for granted and respect for our competitors keeps us striving for more. The future for me is to win gold in Rio 2016 and to defend my title.”
Meghan Musnicki (USA) Women’s eight Introduced to rowing in her first year of university, Meghan remembers being intrigued despite feeling out of place. After missing out on the US team three times, Meghan made it in 2010 and two years later she became an Olympic Champion in the eight. Since then Meghan has been a mainstay of her country’s top boat and has also regularly raced successfully in the women’s pair. “I was nervous, but it was nervous excitement. I was ready and I know the other women I was racing with were ready. I was excited, ready to go.” (before the London Olympic final)

She is one of the few to have won medals in two different boat classes at a single Olympic Games. Kim did this in 2012, taking silver in the double sculls with Brooke Pratley and bronze in the single sculls. Since the London Games, Kim has become World Champion twice in the single. She recently married 2008 Olympic Rowing Champion, Scott Brennan and Kim goes to Rio unbeaten in the 2016 season.

Martin & Valent Sinkovic (CRO) Men’s double sculls Before becoming the crew to beat in the men’s double sculls, the Martin and Valent were part of their nation’s men’s quadruple sculls in which they won multiple international medals, including Olympic silver in 2012. Successfully moving to the double, they are now famed for being the first double in rowing history to do 2000m in less than six minutes. They move to Rio unbeaten having claimed the past three World Championship titles - one in the quad and two in the double. “We hang out a lot and spend a lot of time together outside of the boat and we are a big support to each other. We have some kind of a special synergy, sometimes all it takes is one look to know what the other one has on his mind.” - Valent
Two-time Olympic silver medallist, Ondrej Synek has accumulated an impressive collection of medals over his 11 years that he’s devoted to the single. This includes nine World Championship medals, four of them gold. There has been an on-going rivalry between him and reigning Olympic Champion Mahe Drysdale of New Zealand since 2005. In this Olympiad, however, Synek has remained unbeaten at World Championship level.

“Mainly I’m very single-minded and focused. I’m very hard on myself when I train and I don’t let any doubt cross my mind.”
Giuseppe Vicino started rowing at 13 years old and was soon medalling internationally as a junior and under-23 rower. As a 19-year-old he was already being groomed for the senior men’s four. In 2014 Vicino was in stroke seat and his crew finished seventh overall. Just one year later they not only broke into the A-final, but they also won the World Championship title ahead of reigning Olympic and World Champions Great Britain. “Rowing gives me a feeling of peace and tranquillity that other sports can’t give. Being immersed in nature, listening to the sound of water flowing around the hull with every stroke, makes you feel light, almost like you are flying like angels.”
