Already in the semifinals, Olympic debutante Lilik had cheered at the finish about her first participation in the final at the Summer Games. After all, her husband Leon, mother Daniela and her younger sister Emily, also already a top canoeist, were among the approximately 10,000 spectators in the stands.
