FINTAN MCCARTHY AND Philip Doyle’s semi-final of the World Rowing Championship has been postponed until tomorrow after wind caused problems for the organisers in Shanghai.
The call was made to run the semi-finals tomorrow instead after the double sculls crew were already in the water this morning. They were told lanes would need to be changed after an issue with the timing system, before it was decided to postpone the race until tomorrow at 4.15am Irish time.
