New Zealand has qualified another rowing crew for the Tokyo Olympics after the men's eight won their race at the last chance regatta in Switzerland.
Needing to finish in the top two, the New Zealanders came first just beating Romania with China third.
It means New Zealand has qualified ten crews for the Olympics although only nine will make the trip to Tokyo after the women's lightweight double was withdrawn following Zoe McBride's retirement.
Crew member Tom Mackintosh says with this being the final Olympic qualifier, all the crews went out hard from the start.
