Medal Moment
Canoe slalom: Finn Butcher (NZL) wins men’s kayak cross gold
Straight on to the men then.
Joe Clarke (GBR), Noah Hegge (GER), Finn Butcher (NZL), and Lukas Rohan (CZE).
The exact same course as the women, same rules apply. Off cleanly and Clarke is slow out.
Butcher leads way ahead of everyone else. All through the barrel roll and the first upstream gate.
The Kiwi leads from Clarke. This field is spread out massively.
Finn Butcher is through the last gate easily and he’s Olympic champion! He led from start to finish.
Butcher wins gold for New Zealand, Clarke silver for Great Britain, and Hegge bronze for Germany.
