The 2024 Paris Paralympian improved markedly on his time set during Friday's preliminary qualifying phase, shaving five seconds off that row to cross the finish line in 8:36.61. The final had been due to take place on Sunday but was moved forward by a day due to weather-related concerns. But that did not faze the Limerick para rower who established an early lead over second-placed Uzbekistan which he never relinquished en route to a win by six seconds. "I'm delighted with my performance," said the Lee Rowing Club member.
