Lightweight Women's Double Sculls (LW2X)

Final A

Prediction

ROM, the 1999 World Champion, is favored to win the gold medal here. The big question is whether the USA World silver medalists can stop GER from moving away in the 3rd 500 and protect their silver medal prospects. A straight mix of the semi-finals times appears in the prediction race bulletin that follows below. It indicates a break away by GER for a solid second place position in that 3rd 500. If USA gets into chasing GER it cannot lose sight of AUS, NED and SUI, all of whom will be right there in the last 500, if any of the leaders falter.
