Well done to Liam Jegou – Canoe Slalom Athlete who came first in Qualification Heat 1 of C1M U23 with the second fastest run-time of the day to progress straight to the semi-finals on Friday. Brilliant result Liam!
Robert Hendrick and Jake Cochrane both picked up 50’s in Heat 1 so had to rely on Heat 2 to seek qualification but finished in 15th and 27th places so outside of the 10 paddlers who progressed on that run. Jake’s time without penalties would have been sufficient to make the cut.
In the C1M Junior class, Fionn McNally and Eoin Moorhouse were making their debut at this level of competition and acquitted themselves well on this very difficult course but finished in 40th and 54th positions..
Tomorrow sees our K1M U23 & Jun and our C1W athletes competing.
Follow the action live on
