The Paris Olympics are off to a great start for 17-year-old Summer McIntosh from Canada. She has already won two gold medals, including one in the women’s 200-meter butterfly. McIntosh set an Olympic record with a time of 2:03.86 in the final, leaving her competitors behind. American Regan Smith won the silver medal, while China’s Zhang Yufei, the previous record holder, took bronze. McIntosh’s victory was a special moment for her family as her mother also competed in the same event in the 1980s. McIntosh has proven herself as a rising star in the Paris Olympics.
