Hamadou Djibo Issaka (NIG) is not anOlympic Rowing champion

as the headline in both souvenir sheets suggests.On the contrary

- he came last in a field of 33 competitors, 300 mbehind the

second-slowest sculler in this event. He had been given awild-card

entry "to strengthen the principle of universal representation".

Whereas the media and the spectators celebrated the performance

of the 35-years-old athlete who was a novice with only three months

of training, Sir Steven Redgrave - Rowing legend with five gold medals

from five consecutive Olympic regattas - claimed he should not have

been allowed into the competition at the expense of better scullers.
