New Zealand eyes will again be locked onto canoe sprint, cycling and athletics on Day 14 of the Paris Olympics.


Having won the gold medal in the women's K4 500m final (with Olivia Brett and Tara Vaughan), Lisa Carrington and Alicia Hoskin will attempt to repeat in the women's K2 500m on Friday.


LATEST HEADLINES:


The pair powered through their heat with the second-fastest time to move directly to the semifinals (from 8.50pm NZ Time), with a potential final at 11.10pm NZT.


After just scraping through in the quarterfinals, Kiwis Kurtis Imrie and Hamish Legarth will also be in action in the men's K2 500m semifinals (from 9.10pm NZT), with a potential final at 11.30pm NZT.


At the velodrome, Ellesse Andrews will start her bid for three medals at Paris 2024, alongside teammate Shaane Fulton, in the women's sprint qualifying (from 12am), with potential rides in the 1/32 and 1/16 finals on Day 14.


Women's team pursuit silver medallists Bryony Botha and Emily Shearman will chase a medal in the women's madison (4.09am Saturday NZT).


Maddi Wesche, after recording the second-best throw in qualifying, is also a medal prospect in the women's shot put final at Stade de France (from 5.40am Saturday NZT), while Lydia Ko looks to make another move in the third round of the women's golf tournament (from 10.39pm NZT).
