The Pole is a double world champion! Great news from distant Australia

These are the days of Klaudia Zwolińska, there is no doubt about it! After a sensational and certainly unexpected victory on Thursday during the C1 competition, the Pole turned out to be the best this time in her crowning fight in K1.

The whitewater kayaker showed once again that she is currently in the best shape of her life.

And let this state of affairs last as long as possible in Zwolińska’s case. Preferably until the next Olympic Games, which will be held in Los Angeles in 2028.

Klaudia Zwolińska’s second gold medal! The Polish representative’s great form

In the case of the Olympic competition, Zwolińska is the runner-up in K1. Therefore, it was difficult not to include the Poles among those who will fight for the final triumph. Although it is worth emphasizing that there are many people willing to succeed in whitewater kayaking, and the specificity of the discipline means that one wrong move ruins the plans of several months of hard preparation.

However, Zwolińska proved that the form she showed during the winning march in C1 was not a coincidence. Confirmation of being among the world’s top players, and even showing the competition how strong Poland is – this is great capital for the future. Zwolińska won her first two gold medals in her career during the 2025 World Championships.

During the K1 competition in Penrith, Australia, the Pole achieved a time of 100.32 seconds, overtaking the British Kimberly Woods by 1.77 and the Australian Kate Eckhardt by 3.52 seconds. It is worth adding that at the last World Championships two years ago (2023), Zwolińska was the bronze medalist in the K1 category. This is another beautiful entry in the history of whitewater kayaking. Zwolińska became the first Pole to win gold at the World Championships in whitewater kayaking. As it quickly turned out, actually day after day, double!

It was similar in the case of the Olympic medal. In Paris, Zwolińska stood on the podium of the games as the first whitewater kayaker from Poland. At that time, the Pole also broke a 24-year medal drought in whitewater kayaking. And it seems that 28-year-old Zwolińska has not said her last word yet.
