Summer McIntosh wins SECOND gold medal



Summer McIntosh won her second gold medal of the 2024 Paris Olympics in the 200m butterfly Thursday for Canada's third gold overall.

McIntosh earned her third medal in Paris after capturing gold in the 400m individual medley and silver in the 400m freestyle. This is Canada's first medal ever in the 200m butterfly.

The 17-year-old phenom from Toronto is the first Canadian swimmer since Alex Baumann at the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics to win two gold medals at the same Games. She's also the first woman to achieve the feat.
