World Cup Race 1

The opening race of the series took place at the Cardiff International White Water facility in Wales from 8 to 10 June. It was set to start on June 8 with heats in the men's and women's C1 and the men's K1. Rain and wind forced the organizers to cancel these heats and the competition resumed a day later with semifinals in these events.[3] David Florence made history by becoming the first paddler to win two gold medals in one world cup meeting. He won the men's C1 and C2 events. Great Britain won the medal table with 2 golds and 1 bronze.[4]
