Zhang Liang
was disqualified from the Men's single sculls after he forgot the time of his race and failed to turn to the right heat. When Liang finally arrived to take part in the single scull the competition had already finished. "I wrongly remembered my time as that of the third group, but actually it was the second group", he explained. The rules of the International Rowing Federation
say if an athlete fails to attend a race he forfeits his right to compete in further races. Therefore Zhang not only missed the single sculls but also forfeited his right to compete in the final of the double sculls. This meant his action had also automatically disqualified his team-mate Su Hui
. The China Water Sports Administration appealed the decision but the plea was rejected. "This shows we still have some problems in team organization", commented Wei Di, the director of China's water sports programs.
