Surprisingly, the second woman from the heats, Mira Louen (GER), will not take part in the final as she missed one gate she lost a chance for being in the proper position for the final. Nanquin Cen (CHN) went badly today as well.
Czech canoeists Anna Kašparová and Monika Jančová also did not get into the final, so Hošková will be the only Czech competitor in the final runs.
