LUCERNE, Switzerland — Canada came agonizingly close to adding to its Paris-bound rowing team in Tuesday's last-chance qualifier, but will have just two boats entered in Olympic rowing.
"We recognize how difficult and disheartening this result is for our athletes, especially given the immense dedication and hard work they’ve put into their training," Rowing Canada's high-performance director Adam Parfitt said in a statement. A men's eight hasn't qualified for an Olympic Games since winning a silver medal in London in 2012. No Canadian will compete in men's rowing in Paris.
