Finn Butcher finishes 2nd in his canoe slalom semi final race, but that's enough to make the final and that last 4.

Hegge of Germany, Rohan of Czechia and Clarke of GB will be the other finalists, alongside Finn Butcher. There must be a decent chance of a NZ medal.

I've just done the biggest about turn in my life I think.

Aussie woman wins the Canoe Slalom gold. What the fuck is this shitty sport? Another pile of crap invented which fuck all take part in and then of course, the Aussies throw money at it to win another gold??

Nek Minnit.

Gold New Zealand! Best sport ever!!!!!!

Four Gold Medals for New Zealand. Only countries with much bigger populations and much bigger economies above us.

4? Can you see the future?

To be fair to Laura Kenny, the GB women's spirit team set a new world record in the first round of qualification. A great start for them.
