The USA silver medalists at the 1999 Worlds have come on very strong in Sydney. They
set the fastest winning time in the 4 heats, and should win this semi-final. NED and SUI
both won their repechage races and should finish 2nd and 3rd here to advance with USA to
the FA final.LANE CREW RELATIVE POSITIONS ELAPSED SPLIT
