 #Canoeing: Jenny Egan qualified for the B Final of the K1 200 metres at the European Games in Minsk. The Ireland paddler took seventh in her semi-final. “I’m really happy to make the B Final in the K1 200m, it’s a big improvement from a few weeks ago at the World Cups. It was a good race, it was quite windy out there, quite a side wind so you had to adjust your technique to cope with the conditions. But I’m happy with it and through to the B Final of the 200 tomorrow,” Egan said. 

She has also qualified for the B Final of the K1 500 and will compete in the final of the K1 5,000m.

 Ronan Foley was eighth in his K1 200m semi-final and missed out on a place in the finals. He is set to race in the K1 5,000m on Thursday.
