Winning three gold medals on the final day of the world championships has become a tradition for Canadian sprint canoeist Katie Vincent. The Mississauga, Ont., native raced to a trio of world titles at the 2023 ICF Canoe Sprint World Championships on Sunday in Duisburg, Germany, a repeat of last year.
Canada's Katie Vincent won the women's C1 500m, women's C1 5,000m and mixed C2 500m at the 2023 ICF Canoe Sprint World Championships on Sunday in Duisburg, Germany.
The Mississauga, Ont., native raced to a trio of world titles at the 2023 ICF Canoe Sprint World Championships on Sunday, topping the podium in the women's C1 500m, women's C1 5,000m and mixed C2 500m events in Duisburg, Germany — all non-Olympic disciplines. "It's the perfect way to finish off the championships, and even though they are non-Olympic events they are still really competitive," Vincent said.
Vincent broke two bones in her arm in a cycling accident three months and two weeks before the world championships, forcing her to miss out on preparation time while recovering.
