Romania’s Elisabeta Lipa took an early lead<br />

for gold in the single sculls, ahead of Annelies<br />

Bredael of Belgium and the Canadian<br />

Suzette Laumann. She also competed in the<br />

double sculls, with Veronica Cochelea, winning<br />

silver, as in Seoul, behind German<br />

rowers Kerstin Koeppen and Kathrin Boron.<br />

Xiaoli Gu and Huali Lu won a bronze, the<br />

only medal for the Chinese women, who had<br />

scooped a silver and two bronzes in 1988.<br />

The Canadians took the coxless pairs and also<br />

the coxless fours, introduced in these Games<br />

in place of the coxed, whilst the Germans<br />

won the quadruple sculls, the Romanians<br />

moving one up from their bronze in Seoul,<br />

leaving it to the Unified Team, its sole rowing<br />

medal, only one shade down on the USSR<br />

rowers’ sole silver in the same event in 1988.<br />

Worth noting, the first finals to determine<br />

the 13th to 24th placings.<br />
