Britain’s Emma Wiggs retained her canoeing VL2 (va’a) title for her third Paralympic gold medal overall.
The 44-year-old came home in 58.88 seconds over the 200-metre course at Vaires-sur-Marne.
Jeanette Chippington, the oldest member of the ParalympicsGB squad in Paris at 54, was fourth in one minute 2.41 seconds.
Wiggs and Chippington, competing in her eighth Games having made her debut as a swimmer in 1988 in Seoul, are due to feature in kayak events on Sunday.
Wiggs has four Paralympic medals, having taken gold in the KL2 (kayak) at Rio 2016 before a silver in Tokyo in 2021.
Briton Dave Phillipson secured silver in the men’s KL2 race, clocking 42.43 seconds, just over a second behind Australia’s Curtis McGrath, who won his third consecutive title.
Phillipson, 35, was competing in his second Paralympics as a canoeist after three as a wheelchair tennis player.
Robert Oliver, 36, was sixth in the KL3 final as Algeria’s Brahim Guendouz took gold.
