Katerina Hoskova overmastered the second heats of C-1 Women

The first qualification run did not work out well for Czech canoeist Katerina Hoskova since she was penalized three times. However, she qualified fastest for the semifinal. Her time was 115.15 without a single penalization. On the contrary, Mira Louen (GER) got the sixteen seconds penalization, so she's in final with the time from the first run (117.34). Another women canoists are Caroline Loir (FRA) and Rosalyn Lawrence (AUS) didn't even finish the second course.

Leanne Guinea, the favoured competitor, got to the semifinal, but it was really tight, as she currently holds the 20th position. She missed a gate in both runs, but the time 173.64 is still enough to get to the semifinal.
