New Zealand's golden rowing pair almost "lost" their prized medal - moments after winning it.
Grace Prendergast and Kerri Gowler have been the toast of the Games on Thursday following their crushing win in the final of the women's pair - sprinting from behind to triumph after initially being left in the wake of Canada's Caileigh Filmer and Hillary Janssens.
The Kiwis patiently made their way back into the race, first overtaking the Canadians with just over 500m to go before holding off a spirited charge by the Russian Olympic Committee (ROC)'s Vasilisa Stepanova and Elena Oriabinskaia to bag Team NZ's first gold of the Olympics by just over a second.
The ROC finished in second, followed by Filmer and Janssens.
