Racing in 13 boat classes resulted in four new junior world best times on a day of challenging tail wind conditions at the Willem-Alexander Baan Rowing Regatta course in the Dutch city.

Italy topped the medal table with their haul including a gold in the women’s pair and a new junior world best time for the event.

The crew of Caterina Di Fonzo and Aisha Rocek finished ahead of Denmark and the United States.

Clara Guerra was the winner for Italy in the women’s single sculls as she led from start to finish ahead of Germany’s Alicia Bohn who took silver.

A late charge by Karolien Florijn of The Netherlands earned her the bronze medal.

Italy’s remaining gold came in the men’s coxed four. 

They won the race ahead of Germany and the United States, giving the Italians a total of seven medals - three of them gold.

Winning two gold and ten medals overall put Germany second in the medal table. 

The German women’s four not only took gold, but also set a new junior world best time with a win over Italy and the US.

Germany also won gold in the men’s eight when they went head to head with the US, winning by just 0.03 of a second over the Americans, as Great Britain took bronze.

The ten German medals meant that the nation was successful in all but three of the boat classes. 

Along with the two gold medals, Germany claimed seven silvers and one bronze.

The Czech Republic finished third overall with two gold and one bronze medal. 

Czech success came in the women’s eight with a win over Germany and Italy.
