  "account": "Jess Fox secured a golden return to the Vaires-sur-Marne Nautical Stadium in Paris, claiming gold in the K1 Canoe Slalom World Cup event. This victory was at the same venue where she secured double Olympic gold in 2024. Her sister Noémie Fox finished a mere 0.1 seconds shy of the podium in fifth place. The Fox sisters will once again have the opportunity to clinch gold in the C1 event, which is scheduled for Friday night (AEST). Jess Fox, a two-time defending Olympic champion, overcame a two-second penalty to top the standings. The challenging course proved to be physically demanding, but Jess gave it her all and emerged victorious by 0.73 seconds from Slovakian Eliška Mintálová. Polish paddler Klaudia Zwolińska claimed the bronze medal, just 0.05 seconds behind Ukrainian Viktoriia Us. Jess Fox comes into the event having won three gold medals at the world championships in Oklahoma, following a remarkable comeback season after undergoing surgery to remove a tumour from her kidney nine months ago. In the men's event, Australian Lucien Delfour finished 10th, while Italy's Giovanni de Gennaro won gold with a clean run. The Fox sisters will undoubtedly be looking to add to their medal collection in the upcoming C1 event.",
  "summary": "Jess Fox has fond memories of the Vaires-sur-Marne Nautical Stadium, where she claimed a stunning double gold at the Paris Olympics. And upon her return to the venue for the ICF Canoe Slalom World Cup series, she claims yet another gold medal.",
