[QUOTE="texan, post: 1001724, member: 38206"] [B]Germany, US, NZ lead first day of rowing WINDSOR, England (AP) — Germany set the pace in the blue-ribbon men's eight Saturday and New Zealand's men's pair had a world-best time as the Olympic rowing regatta at the London Games got off to a fast start in glorious sunshine. The Germans, unbeaten in three years, beat a top-quality field containing Olympic champion Canada and host nation Britain in the second heat in the men's eight, confirming their status as favorites for the sport's most high-profile event. The United States also progressed into Wednesday's final by winning the first heat at Dorney Lake by a half length from Australia. With only one crew advancing from each heat, a host of leading boats must expend valuable energy by contesting a repechage on Monday.
