Kimberley Woods revelled in rolling back the years after storming to back-to-back overall victories at the Canoe Slalom World Cup Final in Augsburg.
The British star, 29, had won kayak gold on Friday and followed it up in style in the canoe event 24 hours later to cap an unforgettable end to the season.
Woods, a two-time Olympic bronze medallist in Paris last summer, toppled Brazil’s Ana Satila and French paddler Doriane Delassus to make it back-to-back wins in Germany.
The Rugby star celebrates her 30th birthday on Monday and despite her two triumphs taking their toll, insists age is just a number after a memorable weekend on the continent.
“It’s my last race as a 29-year-old, but I’ve still got it in my so-called old age!” said Woods. “I’m pretty buzzed with that.
“Gold seems to be my colour at the minute – so I’m feeling pretty confident.
“My arms are pretty knackered – I’m going to absolutely crash out tonight.
“My first two runs today were pretty tough, so I’m just happy I was able to put together a good run in the final.
“I wasn’t really expecting to win, but my line was really good. It’s really tough to keep putting the runs down, because each one is about two minutes.
“Every win builds your confidence.”
Elsewhere, fellow British paddlers Ellis Miller and Bethan Forrow raced to the semi-finals but were unable to progress and join Woods in the final.
While on the men’s side, Adam Burgess narrowly missed out on a medal with a battling fourth-place finish.
The Paris 2024 silver medallist, 33, was pipped to the podium by Spanish star Miquel Trave as Frenchman Nicolas Gestin grabbed gold.
Fellow Brits Luc Royle and Ryan Westley advanced out of the heats and into the semi-finals but failed to join Burgess in the final.
Burgess said: “It was a big day with three runs on the same course, especially given how hard I had to fight for it in the semi-final – but I made the final, which was difficult. I felty pretty tired warming up for the final.
“It’s always great to race here and it’s the best result I’ve had here. It’d a hard place to paddle.”
