#Canoeing: Hannah Craig’s chances of Olympic qualification disappeared as the K1 competitor failed to make the semi-finals of the canoe slalom European Championships in Slovakia. The Antrim woman, who had finished 10th in London in 2012, negotiated the course in 111.59 seconds, including four seconds of penalties, in the first run. This placed her 28th. Her second run gave her another chance, but she missed the final two gates, incurring 100 seconds in penalties, and missed out.
