Rowing: Team GB Rowers cap great weekend with gold
Kieren Emery and Matthew Tarrant raised their arms after crossing the finish line in Trakai to add the World U23 title in the men’s pair to the silver in the women’s pair and bronze in the men’s four from Saturday’s finals.It was Emery’s second World U23 title in as many years after winning the 2011 lightweight pairs with Team GB’s Peter Chambers, followed by the senior World title in the same event, before stepping up to openweight for 2012. For Tarrant, this was a major step-up from the bronze he won in the 2011 men’s eight and is his first Championship title.
