BRITISH SUCCESS AT 2007 ROTTERDAM SUPER WORLD CUP

Britain won four medals at the Rotterdam Super World Cup, which took place from the 28th-30th September. On day one James Millar (Edinburgh) took silver in the -60kg and is now in 5th place in the EJU ranking list (discounting those already qualified).

Sarah Clark (Edinburgh), in the –63kg weight category, and Matthew Purssey (Edinburgh), in the –73kg weight category both won bronzes. Clark is now sitting in an Olympic qualification position with Purssey edging closer qualification zone.

On the third and final day, Michelle Rogers (Scottish Institute of Sport) clinched gold in the –78kg weight category. The win for Rogers follows her gold at the Estonia World Cup just one week also and also leaves her in the qualification zone and ranked number one Europe.

The entire team performed well and saw Sophie Johnston (-52kg), and Iain Feenan (-73kg) finishing in 5th places, and Sarah Adlington (+78kg) and Sally Conway (-70kg) finishing in 7th place.
