Timothy Hornsby advanced to the semifinals of the K1 200m on Saturday at the ICF Canoe Sprint World in Racice, Czech Republic but was unable to secure a spot in any of the three finals. Hornsby finished sixth of the seven participants in his heat, grabbing the last spot to move into the semifinals. Hornsby finished his heat in 36.528, just about a second ahead of the seventh place finisher. In the semifinals Hornsby finished eighth of the nine competitors in 39.139 and was eliminated. He would have needed to have one of the three best times of the competitors who finished outside the top six in the four semifinals but was about 0.7 seconds short of that mark.
