Men's Single
1 Latvia, 2 Great Britain, 3 Netherlands
It was all about Great Britain and Australia at the start of the race. Mitchell
Punch of Australia and Colin Smith of Great Britain took off together both
trying to establish some kind of dominance over the other. Neither was having
any success. Then Sjoerd Hamburger of the Netherlands decided to get in on the
game. At the half way point nothing separated Punch, Smith and Hamburger. Then
Kristaps Bokums of Latvia started to come through from the back of the field so
that with less than 700 metres left to row four scullers were now making and
equal line. Bokums then began to pour on the power. In a photo finish, Bokums
had won. On the podium Smith was dwarfed by the statuesque Bokums who was
feeling the worse for wear and could barely stand. Hamburger stood there
beaming with delight. Are these the future fastest men in the world?

- Quarter Finals: Colin Smith bt I. J. Lawson (Leander) Not Rowed Out
- From Saturday's Times:
Colin Smith, Oxford University's Boat Race stroke, caused an upset by
beating Ian Lawson, the Britain
Olympic sculler. Smith said: "I thought if I kept pushing I may end up
blowing but he might end up making
a mistake." It worked. Smith held a small advantage, never more than a
length, until Lawson pushed at
the Enclosures, where his challenge ended. Lawson said: "It should have
been over long before the Enclosures."

[M28 on the start - Queen's II appear to
be only
about 10' away and facing backwards, which might explain why Catz managed to
bump them (still took them as far as the Gut to do it, though)].
