"All this hard work for the past few years to get to this point, and now I'm looking forward to the future," Vincent told canoeicf.com.
"I really feel like this is the beginning. There is a long road to go for me. I'm really looking forward to worlds next year at home, to be the reigning world champion added into a home world championships will be super exciting."

Katie Vincent also raced the women's 500-metre final Sunday and placed sixth.
"I have ups and downs since Tokyo," Vincent said. "There were a lot of emotions and things to process, and there still is. It kept me going and I reconnected with my love for this sport."
