Russian canoeist Zakhar Petrov has lost the gold medal at the World Canoeing Championships, which are taking place from August 23-25, 2024 in Samarkand (Uzbekistan). During the 500-meter race, the Russian flipped over and crossed the finish line underwater.

Initially, Petrov's result was not counted in the final protocol, and he was listed as a non-finisher.
