Kennedy managed to grab the gold with an impressive result of 4.90 and Moon snagged the silver with 4.85. The Canadian athlete took home the bronze after a height of 4.85m.
Team Canada have since taken to X to share that the Newman is the country’s first pole vault medalist in 112 years. A very impressive result.
The 30-year-old decided to celebrate in an unusual way, which has ended up becoming a viral moment from the Paris 2024 Olympics. The star appeared to fake an injury and then twerk towards the crowd.
