Austria’s lightweight double scull with the rowers Julian Schöberl and Lukas Reim did not get past fifth place in the quarter-finals of the world championships in Racice (Cze) which is why the players from Linz and Salzburg are now fighting for places 13 to 24. “They rode great up to 1600 meters. But then the club came,” analyzed Austria’s national coach Robert Sens. Physiologically, the duo was still missing a lot, the German continued: “But you shouldn’t forget that for the two of them it’s also the first international competition.” Gaining experience is a priority for some of the Austrian boats. For lightweight rower Konrad Hultsch and the double scull with Thomas Lehner and Armin Auerbach, the World Championships also continue in the semi-finals C/D.
