Joe Clarke, Kimberley Woods and Mallory Franklin have all qualified for the finals day of the kayak cross on day nine of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.
But it was not to be for Adam Burgess, who missed out on the last 16 in his first international kayak cross competition.

Following yesterday's preliminary rounds, the heats saw the four paddlers line up on the ramp and race head-to-head, with the first two qualifying for the quarter finals, with the remaining athletes eliminated from the competition.
The first men's kayak cross heat of the day saw three time World Champion and number 1 seed Joe Clarke MBE, representing Team GB in the red bib.
Clarke once again opted for the far right hand lane and another fast start saw the Stafford and Stone paddler take an early advantage.
Safely through the roll zone, Clarke moved to the left river upstream gate 2 smoothly.
With a dominant lead, the 30-year-old kept out of the traffic and comfortably qualified for Monday's quarter finals with a superb run to claim top spot.
“Hopefully I can repeat today again tomorrow. Fingers crossed it's three runs tomorrow and I can rinse and repeat today's performance. I'd be foolish to think it'll be that easy, but I really want to challenge for those medals.
“We normally have five rounds and time-trial in one day. It means you've got to get yourself ready on multiple days. It has started well.
“Each race has its different challenges. As we get further and further into the rounds, it intensifies. Everyone has different attributes so you've just got to react depending on who you're racing with.
“I'm always alert and react accordingly to what others are doing.”
Next up for Team GB was Adam Burgess, making his international debut in the kayak cross.
Racing in heat 4, Adam was in fourth place off the ramp, but a mistake by Yves Bourhis saw him move into third.
A superb manoeuvre around gate 2 saw Adam move into second place, and was in a great position to qualify for the last 16.
But difficulty navigating the final upstream gate saw Bourhis and Mateusz Polacczyk pass to push Adam down into fourth place.
Elimination saw Adam's competition come to an end, but it has been a superb Olympic Games for the Stafford and Stone paddler, who won the silver medal in the individual canoe.
“I had a lot of fun. I think I scared the kayak boys a little bit. I decided to go for it. I managed to get the better of a few of them there.
“Even though I was ahead, I knew I needed to pin that last upstream if I was to stay ahead. I tried the sweep technique which I haven't trained yet but I knew it was the only way to stay ahead. Unfortunately I didn't pull it off.
“Another opportunity to race in front of that crowd was really special.
“I've had the time of my life. I said it after my heats, it was the best experience of my life.”
In the women's event, reigning World Champion Kimberley Woods was in the green bib and in the middle of the start ramp.
A flying start saw the World number 1 pull clear in heat 6 to lead the pack down to the first gate. A slight mistake in the roll zone and towards gate 2 saw Doria Vilarrubla close the gap.
But a smooth run from the Rugby athlete, navigating through 5 and 6 and the left river upstream gate 8, secured the win and a quarter-final spot for the Olympic individual kayak bronze medallist.
She said: “I'm really happy to get that first place today. We will have some time to look at other runs from today to help me tomorrow.
“I had a little mistake in gate 2, but was really happy to keep calm in the moment and happy to deliver what I did.
“Every race is different and you rarely get the same result.
“I was in lane two and was in the blocks first. I'm confident I’ve got the power wherever I am on the start ramp to get a great start.
“Lane choice is great. I've got second lane choice again tomorrow so that will help with the start and I can go from there.”
Last to go for Team GB was 2022 World Cup series winner Mallory Franklin.
A trademark fast start saw Franklin take a clear advantage and take a strong, clean line around the upstream gate 2.
With the other paddlers in the three-way battle on the right hand side of the course, the Tokyo Olympic silver medallist powered further ahead and comfortably progressed through to the quarter-finals.
Franklin said: “I'm pretty happy with that. It was a solid start off the ramp to get off to a good start. There was a clash of paddles, but I kept hold of mine and managed to get away. I was clumsy in a few places but I had a bit of freedom to get away.
“Overall it was smooth and I was happy to deliver my plan to get to the finish line first.
“There’s a combination of physical power and speed that really helps to get out in front. If you can be technical where you need to be you'll be on to the good run.
“I'm just embracing each day and each run as it comes. My heats were decent and I've been happy with how I've done so far. I've got the first lane draw again so that's great.
“It would be great to have myself and Kimberley through to the final, but we need to work hard to get there first. It's kayak cross so anything can happen.”
Joe, Kimberley and Mallory will all return to Vaires-sur-Marne tomorrow afternoon at 14:30 BST to race in the quarter-finals of the kayak cross, looking to secure a place on the podium.
