A 36-year canoeist gave Norway its first gold medal of the London Olympics on Wednesday as China and the United States continued their intense Games-long competition for top spot on the medal table. Eirik Veras Larsen won the K-1 event over 1,000 meters at Dorney Lake west of London. Hungary won two of the four gold canoe and kayak medals decided there Wednesday — Rudolf Dombi and Roland Kokeny had a photo-finish in the men's 1,000-metre K-2 and the Hungarian women's quartet ended the 16-year dominance of their German rivals in the K-4 500.
