Tokyo Olympic champion Ricarda Funk narrowly missed the podium at the Canal Lalom World Cup in the Slovenian Tacen. Nevertheless, the 33-year-old from KSV Bad Kreuznach still has opportunities for the overall World Cup victory. In the absence of the sick Olympic champion Jessica Fox, she could make this perfect at the World Cup final in Augsburg. The Australian canceled the last two World Cups because a tumor in the kidney has been removed.
British Kimberley Woods won the victory in the kayak one. European champion Funk made a mistake on goal 15 and thus awarded a better placement. The Olympic second in the Canadier, Elena Lilik from the Canuschwaben Augsburg, already failed at the first goal, but still came fifth behind radio.
