4. Kristian Gkolomeev – AQC – 22.51
Duncan Scott was bumped out, which is unfortunate for London, howver, they’ll still advance to the finals in Las Vegas.
And the Energy Standard have nearly sealed the derby title with Manaudou in and Scott bumped out.
ROUND 3 – FINAL
1. Vladimir Morozov – IRO – 21.78
2. Florent Manaudou – ENS – 22.25
Morozov gave it one last hurrah for the Iron as they managed to snag a respectable third-place team effort. As for Manaudou, despite finishing second, his 21-point steal allowed Energy Standard to become the only undefeated ISL team thus far in the season.
He’s too ruined from ISL
Must be required by sponsors, because I would imagine the first professional championships are a lot cooler than EuroSC champs. Plus the competition at ISL champs is the fastest we’ll see pre-Tokyo
WADA just recommended 4 yr ban for russia from olympics starting in Jan 2020
