Results

World Cup Race 1

The opening race of the series was set to start on June 8 with heats in the men's and women's C-1 and the men's K-1. Rain and wind forced the organizers to cancel these heats and the competition resumed a day later with semifinals in these events.[3] David Florence made history by becoming the first paddler to win two gold medals in one world cup meeting. He won the men's C-1 and C-2 events. Great Britain won the medal table with 2 golds and 1 bronze.
