Rower Katherine Grainger has hinted that she may stick with the single scull event into next year.

Speaking to the Press Association, Ms Grainger described the single sculls as a "great event to be in".

She told the news agency: "It was a nice project and it worked out better than probably any of us expected. It might have some implications for next year.

"There is always so much behind each medal. Sometimes it is more than you could hope for, sometimes it is a disappointment."

Grainger took silver at the 2000, 2004 and 2008 Olympics and has been World Champion four times in 2003 and from 2005 to 2007 in her women's fitness wear, in both the two and four-person events.

She is Great Britain's most successful female rower and defended her singles title in the 2009 GB Rowing Senior Trials in Belgium and has raced in the single scull through the 2009 World Cup series.
