Sinković Brothers are professional Croatian rowing team consisting of Martin Sinković and Valent Sinković, Valent being older by a year. They've been racing together since 2008. Together they've won the gold medal in Men's double sculls at the 2016 Olympic games. They were the first in that category to finish in under six minutes.
Valent is on the left and Martin on the right.
After recently winning gold on European Championship, this Sunday they placed themselves in the quarter-finals of the world championship in sculls held in Plovdiv, Bulgaria by a large margin. They had the best qualification time out of all competing teams. They naturally finished the race first with the time of 6: 18.33.
The British team finished second in that race with a four second longer time (6:33.740). The second best time in the qualifications as a whole were the Romanians with 6:18.520, quite close to the brothers.
This is a list of their achievements. They're competing in several rowing disciplines.
The quarter-finals are scheduled to be today at 16:06 and I will surely be watching these guys.
Go go go! :)
