Canoeist Satková takes silver in Prague

Czech canoeist Martina Satková won silver at the Canoe Slalom World Cup event in Prague-Troja on Saturday. She was beaten only by Australia's Jessica Fox, the most successful paddler in the sport's history, who completed a golden double in the Czech capital after winning the kayak event on Friday.

Satková produced a clean run but still finished 0.27 seconds behind Fox, despite the Australian receiving a four-second penalty.

Fellow Czech Tereza Kneblová finished seventh and was unable to repeat her victory from last week's opening World Cup race in Tacen, Slovenia. Tereza Michalová, competing after a maternity break, placed ninth.
