Berlin will host a “giant rowing spectacle” on October 12th. Thomas Haun, President of the State Rowing Associationuses these words to promote the duel between Olympic champion Oliver Zeidler and bronze medalist Simon van Dorp on the Spree. The runner-up from Paris, Yauheni Zalaty, who would also have been a suitable challenger, is not allowed to enter the country as he is from Belarus.
