Rowing Ireland’s representation at the Tokyo Olympics swelled again yesterday with Sanita Puspure, Philip Doyle and Ronan Byrne qualifying for the 2020 Games.

The Irish rowing team have claimed two medals at the World Rowing Cup I in Belgrade this morning.

Rowing Ireland chief executive Hamish Adams hopes yesterday’s medal haul at the European Championships in Germany lays the foundation for glory at the Olympic Games in Rio later this year.
