‘We went for gold today and fell short, but I’m still really proud’published at 11:46

GB win women’s four silver

Great Britain’s women’s four team have been speaking on BBC One after narrowly missing out on gold to the Netherlands.

Esme Booth: “I think out on the water, we had our race plan that we were going to go out and execute. That’s what we took out today.”

On the number of calls to sprint: “I don’t think I stopped shouting. I think maybe Rebecca didn’t hear me because the crowd were so loud, but thank you to everyone that’s come here today and thank you everyone who has cheered us on at home. I was screaming as loud as I could ‘go go’. We fully believe it until you have to.”

Rebecca Shorten: “I think we’ve done a good job, I think we all would have been very happy with gold, that’s what we were going out there for and got silver.”

On Booth’s shouts: “I heard it all, I felt very internal and it felt very internal and I heard every call. Didn’t miss it.”

On the crowds: “I just looked up to try and find our families, the crowds are amazing.”

Sam Redgrave: “Maybe a bit, we obviously didn’t go in there wanting to race for silver, we went for gold and fell short of it today. I’m still really proud of what we’ve done all season and what we did in that race. We’ll have time to reflect on it. Right now, it’s still a bit of a shock.”

Helen Glover: “The thing I’ve learned is the most frustrating thing is to look back and find things you could do differently. Today, I think we put it all out there. We raced the plan we wanted to race, we raced together. We raced with so much heart and I think there can’t be regret at looking back and not thinking you did all you can.”

On the atmosphere and families watching: “It is, no matter how we do, they are the people we go back to no matter what. It was really nice to have everyone out there, I have to thank everyone who has supported us from near or far.”

On support both in and out of Paris: “We are honestly so thankful to anyone who has followed our journey, supported us through everything. We couldn’t be more proud of the people who have been supporting, from ex-teammates to people who have just gotten into rowing. It means a lot.”
