LAUREN Henry won gold again as Great Britain claimed the overall World Rowing Cup title in Lucerne, Switzerland.
Rugby-born Henry helped Team GB to a second victory in three years after triumphing in the women’s single sculls event.
Henry overcame the challenge of Ireland’s Fiona Murtagh to take gold while Denmark took the final place on the podium.
Henry said: “It’s special because the world is here.
“I think in this event in Lucerne, everyone that I’ve raced so far this season has been here, so it’s good to see where I’m at.
“The World Championships are still quite a long way away, so a lot can change, but I’m going to take what I’ve learned in this racing block and put in some more work to find where I can improve.
“I’m so pleased. It has been a team effort with so many of our boats contributing to the win.
“It’s so special for us to win the World Cup.
“I was told it was quite close earlier, so I’m really, really pleased that I managed to get the points we needed to win the trophy.”
The 23-year-old posted the fastest time in the heats and semi-finals.
And Henry pulled clear of closest rival Murtagh in the final 500m to claim another gold in a time of 7 minutes 15.21 seconds with her Irish challenger more than three seconds further back.
