Prince William ‘a natural’ as his team wins dragon boat race in Singapore
The Prince of Wales was praised as “a natural” as his team won a dragon boat race on the Marina Reservoir against a backdrop of Singapore’s most famous landmarks.
William, wearing a black cap and white polo shirt, was praised by a teammate from the British Dragons before another said the prince “didn’t miss a stroke” after he took part in a race on a 22-seater boat with locals, British expats living in Singapore and representatives from across the Commonwealth on Monday morning local time (1am GMT).
The prince is in Singapore for the third annual Earthshot Prize ceremony, aimed at recognising solutions to “repair” the planet, and will see five category winners presented with £1 million each to scale up their environmental ideas.
Obvious guess coming up here. Prince William probably didn't do his bit to “repair” the planet by travelling to Singapore in a dragon boat. We do the "repair", he does the messing about in boats.

"The prince is in Singapore for the third annual Earthshot Prize..."
- awarded only to the cleverest ecologists who manage to avoid shooting themselves in the foot and hit the earth instead.
Sam - ha ha, I don't see many orthodox ecologists meeting that challenge. "Earthshot Prize" is certainly a rum name as people are bound to associate it with shooting something.
