David Crawshay and Scott Brennan have won Australia's seventh gold medal of the Beijing Olympics, taking out the men's double sculls in the rowing. The Australians led from start to finish to win by more than a second in 6:27.77.
Estonians Tonu Endrekson and Juri Jaanson hunted down and passed Brits Matthew Wells and Stephen Rowbotham in the final 500m to snatch the silver.
Slovenia's world champions Luka Spik and Iztok Cop, the champions from Sydney eight years ago, were a huge disappointment, finishing sixth and last in the final.
