Sprint Canoeing at the Summer Olympic Games 2020

Good thing that we had two boats in this event, Béke/Varga was supposed to be our #1 K2 boat based on the Hungarian trials and now they are in FB while our #2 boat is in FA.

Probably 2-3 medals today, I hope for 1 gold. Carrington is unrivaled, but I believe in W K4 we still are ahead.

At the last K1 200 of the Olympic Games it finally gave us an Olympic champion. Tótka won thanks to his amazing start.

Tótka GOLD!

I really expected two medals here, but   continue to amaze even where they are not favorites.

Yeah, Rizza was stronger in the last 100m, incredibly close final, as always in this event.

I agree. It's sad that IOC decide the remove one of the best exciting event...

Terrible moment for the US in athletics, but here's their first Canoe Sprint gold in a very long time.

Harrison !!!! A gold medal in canoe for the US 

 

(I know she was the favorite, but it’s amazing to see a gold medal for the US in this sport. It’s not something that happens often canoeing fans in the US.)
