    Versatility's the key for Kiwi canoe sprint queen Dame Lisa Carrington, who's won the K1 500 crown on her World Cup return - in the Czech Republic

    Versatility's the key for Kiwi canoe sprint queen Dame Lisa Carrington, who's won the K1 500 crown on her World Cup return - in the Czech Republic


    Carrington's up again tonight in the K2 500 final, with Alicia Hoskin... after opting not to compete in her favoured K1 200 discipline... which won't be at the Paris 2024 Olympics.



    Carrington missed out on making the K4 500 final, with teammates Hoskin, Olivia Brett and Tara Vaughan.
