Ok so if no one else will start it I will.
Congratulations to the British team at the worlds
Two C1w in the finals, Alice was 11th, missing the final by 0.76 secs) then 7th for Kimberly and a wonderful Silver for Mallory
Fantastic performance from Joe Coombs in his first world's final and so close to the podium
C1M FIRST WORLD C1 Champion for GBR, David Florence take a bow. With Tom Quinn 15th just one touch from the final and Mark Proctor 24th
Rich Hounslow was in fantastic and David 'Awesome' Florence were in top form in the C2. No athlete has ever won two individual classes at the same World Champs and GB have never won a gold medal at the Worlds in C1m or C2m before, definitely a momentous weekend!!
As one German coach was alleged to have said
K1 Women were there, with Lizzie 11th, with just penalties stopping all three from being in the finals.
The new senior team manager looked quiet pleased as well!
