A day after smashing all opposition in her K1 200m final, Lisa Carrington did the same in her less favoured K1 500m event at the world championships tonight.
The Kiwi blitzed the start, putting a boat length on the nine-woman field inside the opening 150m and then maintaining that advantage to the finish to earn her second gold of the regatta at Szeged, Hungary.
She clocked 1m 55.76s to win by 1.63s. Volha Khudzenka of Belarus, who won gold in the K2 200m and 500m at these world championships, was second in 1m 57.39.
Hungary's Danuta Kozak, a two-time Olympic gold medallist and the defending world champion in this event, was third in 1m 58.01s.
Carrington downplayed her dominance in her post-race interview on the Szeged pontoon.
