Fox cemented her status as the greatest ever Canoe Slalom paddler during the 2024 season.

She won five gold medals and two silver medals during the 2024 World Cup Season, before adding another two Olympic gold medals as she rose to the occasion at the Paris Games, making her the most successful individual medallist in Australian Olympic history.

After winning silver in London in 2012 and bronze in Rio in 2016 and Tokyo 2020, Fox was able to claim the elusive Women’s Kayak gold medal, then defended her Women’s Canoe gold with another virtuoso performance.

Fox is a tireless leader and advocate for sport. She is a member of the Athletes’ Commission of Paddle Australia, the Athletes’ Commission of the Australian Olympic Committee and in Paris was one of just four athletes worldwide to be elected the Athletes’ Commission of the International Olympic Committee.

She was a flagbearer for Team Australia in Paris, managing significant media commitments ahead of the announcement and start of competition with her customary humility and enthusiasm, before delivering once more under extreme pressure.

Her influence on paddling in Australia extends far beyond her performances on the water. She is a recognised role model for the next generation of Australian athletes across all sports.
