British Rowing Duo Craig and Grant Aim for Third European Title in Lightweight Double Sculls

British rowers Emily Craig and Imogen Grant are on a roll as they gear up for the European Rowing Championships in Szeged. The dynamic duo, who have been unbeaten since the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games, are eyeing a hat-trick of European titles in the women’s lightweight double sculls.

Craig and Grant recently showcased their dominance at the World Cup regatta in Varese, where they secured yet another victory. Despite their impressive winning streak, the pair remains focused on self-improvement and pushing their limits.

With scorching hot weather in Varese providing a practice run for the conditions in Hungary, where the European Championships will take place, Craig and Grant are feeling confident about their form. The duo posted a time just five seconds off their own world best in Varese, setting the stage for a thrilling showdown in Szeged.

The tight turnaround between regattas adds to the pressure, but Grant is determined to focus on taking the next steps in their journey. The pair’s ability to maintain concentration in the face of disruptions, such as the incident with the Canadian pair in Varese, showcases their mental toughness and readiness for any challenge.

As they prepare to showcase their skills on the European stage, Craig and Grant are determined to race against themselves and continue to improve as a crew. With their eyes set on the ultimate prize, the British rowers are ready to make a splash at the European Rowing Championships and prove just how dangerous they are in this Olympic year.
