Where do rowers look when racing?

  • To the front

  • To the sky

  • To the finish line

  • Backwards

Answer

Rowers look backwards when racing because they need to keep their eyes on the finish line, which is behind them. This is because the coxswain, who sits at the back of the boat and steers it, calls out commands and directions to the rowers based on what they see ahead.
