The Weger brothers made it to the semi-finals in Prague

Jakob Weger (19) made it to the semi-finals for the second time in the World Cup in the kayak single sculls in his second start at the Canoe Slalom World Cup in Prague. The younger of the Weger brothers managed a first qualifying run on Friday morning in Prague's Kunstkanal without any penalty seconds for any contact with the goal post. The SCM paddler took 1st place in the qualification in 81,54 seconds and thus achieved one of the 21 starting places from the first qualifying run in the semi-finals on Saturday. Matthias Weger (30), however, only ended up in 1st place in the 21st qualifying run in 1 seconds with 84,19 penalty seconds for touching the goal post and had to fight for one of the remaining 2 semi-final places in the 41nd qualifying run. With a time of 2 seconds without penalty seconds, the elder of the Weger brothers was able to qualify for the semi-finals by finishing fourth in the second qualifying run. The fastest in the men's kayak qualification was the Australian Lucien Delfour (10) ahead of the Czechs Vavrinec Hradilek (82,22) and Jiri Prskavec (2). The Italians Zeno Ivaldi (77,73) in 78,31th and Giovanni De Gennaro (78,57) in 80,52th were able to qualify for the semi-finals on Saturday, as did Jakob and Matthias Weger in the kayak single sculls.
