Ireland’s lightweight men’s quadruple won their repechage at the World Rowing Championships in Bled in Slovenia today with a dominant performance. The crew of Niall Kenny, Michael Maher, Justin Ryan and Mark O’Donovan took the lead by 500 metres and owned the race from there. Four crews qualified from five in this race to join heat winners Italy and Germany in the A Final.
