University of Reading Student Adam Freeman-Pask has won gold with Richard Chambers seen below, in the lightweight men’s double sculls in Sunday’s World Cup event in Sydney.
They dominated the race to see off their Chinese and Portuguese rivals. The display was a strong indicator that Chambers and Freeman-Pask are worthy successors to Mark Hunter and Zac Purchase as the Great Britain pairing.
As well as Adam picking up gold, GB won an historic gold in the men’s quad pictured left from three Reading University Alumni; Charles Cousins, Bill Lucas, Sam Townsend as well as Graeme Thomas – it’s a first ever for GB at world cup level.
