Speaking afterwards, he said: \u201cThis is the end of a long process. I\u2019ve trained hard over this last year and I prepared for a tough competition. I\u2019ve been doing slalom since I was nine. My whole family came to Buenos Aires to support me. My aim now is to help develop canoeing in my country. \u201d<\/p>\n

The opening day of the slalom events also brought gold for Slovakia\u2019s Luknarova, who clocked a time of 1:18.25 to beat France\u2019s Doriane Delassus by over a second and a half, with Chinese Taipei\u2019s Tzu-Hsuan Lai taking the bronze.
