WOW. Tom Hall won gold in C1 1000m at the ICF flatwater world cup 2 in Duisburg. We had a regatta at MCC today and it was all anyone could talk about. He had to beat Mark Oldershaw to secure a nomination to the Olympic team but he went to another level, overtaking 3-time olympic champion Andreas Dittmer for the gold in 3:50.109 seconds. Dittmer won silver in 3:51.531 and Vadin Menkov of Uzbekistan bronze in 3:52.649. Mark Oldershaw was fourth in 3:52.699.




Richard Dober and Andrew Willows won gold in the K2 1000m while Adam van Koeverden won a bronze (1000m) and a gold (500m), Mark won bronze in the 500m and Andrew Russell & Gabriel Beauchesne-Sevigny won bronze in C2.

Awesome results for Team Canada but huge congratulations go to Tom Hall!
