    Dame Lisa Carrington cruises into the final with a faster time than Aimee Fisher.

    It's going to be a great battle between them in the final.

    Carrington will win. The pressure will be too much for Fisher. I hope they can go 1-2

              Metraux hits her tee shot into the water. Nerves already? Lids, looking resplendent in black, seems relaxed and drives her shot into the heart of the fairway

                Carrington and Fisher lining up for the K1 500m final. Here's hoping for a Kiwi 1-2 🙏

                    Well done Carrington. Fischer left too much to do in the last 250m.

                      Awesomely and unsurprisingly, another gold for Carrington after soaking up the early pressure. Fisher left her run at bronze too late from the back of the race.

                          That is Gold Medal number eight for Dame Lisa.

                          Time to put her on a bank note.

                                  Bit of a fizzer in the end. So much for the Kiwi showdown.

                                    Yeah. She has a reputation as a loner. And she doesn't appear to see eye to eye with Carrington's mentor and lead coach of the team reportedly. Basically trains on her own so I read

                                      Lids and Metraux dropped shots on 1. They have come back and joined a large group tied at the top. If there is a tie at the end, will all of them get gold medals? Metraux dropped a shot on 2 as well.

                                          Lids starting a little shaky. Metraux is bleeding right now, I think the pressure is finally getting to her
