Phase Reports

On the heat result
Valent Sinkovic (CRO)

On their heat:
"It was a good race. A little bit tough conditions, but we managed to do it fine and we are happy with the first race.

"There's a lot of things to be done better, but considering [it was] a heat, it was good enough. Of course it's the first race, you need to manage the conditions and everything. For sure we can row much better - we need to row much better for the semifinal and especially the final. We are aware of that."

On being part of a multisport event:
"It's a good thing definitely for the sport of rowing, because it's a lot more media interest, better organisation, more people. You can see it's something bigger than just the European in rowing, so we love it."

Martin Sinkovic (CRO)

On returning to the double scull after five years in the men's pair:
"We love it. It's good after the pair. In the pair it was a lot of ups and downs, and it's better in the double.

"The races are tougher in the double, but it's nicer to row every day. It's better."

On the headwind:
"Every wind is the same. We manage good conditions, we're good at managing bad conditions. For us it's pretty much the same. Nobody likes the wind. We'd all be most happy that it's calm."
