Uganda’s only Rower at the 2021 Olympics Kathleen Noble finished 3rd in Heat 3 of Women’s Single Sculls Repechage at the Sea Forest Waterway at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics in Japan on Saturday.

Kathleen managed a time of 8:36.01 and albeit finishing on the podium, she couldn’t proceed to the quarter finals because only the top two players could do so.

Cuban female rower Venega Cancio Milena finished first in a time of 8:17.30 and proceeded to the quarter finals of the main event along with Hong Kong’s Winnie Hung Wing-yuen who finished second.

Kathleen together with the other two athletes who finished fourth and fifth will compete in the semifinal E or F on Sunday.

Their chances of attaining Olympic medals are no more for the Repechage was the final pathway to do so after they again fell short in the opening round.

Kathleen had finished 5th in her heat to qualify for the Repechage.

Kathleen who is Uganda’s first ever rower at the Olympics came out as the fastest African in her heat. Earlier on, she had aimed to emerge fastest African female rower at the games.

The Olympics will run from 23 July to 8 August 2021 in Tokyo, Japan with 25 Ugandan athletes (13 females and 12 males) set to be in the mix.
