Jennings denied at the death

DONEGAL’S Sinéad Jennings suffered heartbreak in the final of the Lightweight Single Sculls at the World Rowing Championships in Spain yesterday, finishing just outside the medals in fourth.

With only 250m to go, Jennings looked every inch the winner ahead of German Nina Gaesler but then disaster struck.

Jennings hit something and stopped dead in the water just metres short of the line, falling from first to fourth at the finish.
