Here's what you may have missed on Day 15, including a historic gold medal that has set a new standard for Canada at the Summer Games.
Katie Vincent wins gold in women's C-1 200m by the skin of her teeth
One day after winning bronze with her doubles canoe partner, Sloan Mackenzie, Canada's Katie Vincent was back on the podium, this time with a gold medal after claiming first place in the women's single 200-metre canoe final on Saturday morning.
The Mississauga, Ont., native's win came down to a photo finish as her canoe crossed the line at nearly the same time as that of American Nevin Harrison, who won silver. After a brief pause at the finish line, Vincent eventually would raise her hand as the gold medallist, finishing with a time of 44.12 seconds, just one one-hundredth of a second quicker than Harrison, who finished in 44:13 seconds.
Vincent's gold-medal performance was a historic finish for a few different reasons, most notably the fact that her time has set a new world record in the women's C-1 200-metre competition. The win also represents Canada's first-ever Olympic gold medal in any women's kayak or canoe event.
With Vincent's gold on Saturday morning — along with the other 24 medals Canada has won in Paris — Team Canada has now eclipsed the 24 medals won in Tokyo three years ago, making the 2024 Olympics Canada's most successful non-boycotted Summer Games ever. Canada now has eight gold medals to go along with six silver and 11 bronze medals.
As is tradition, Canadians from coast to coast were quick to share their excitement for Vincent on social media.
