At the European Championships held in Paris along the Seine, two French athletes secured medals in the 3 km open water race. Marc-Antoine Olivier won silver, while Logan Fontaine took bronze. The gold medal was won by Hungary’s David Betlehem, who outperformed the French team by over three seconds. In the first leg, both Olivier and Fontaine finished in the top five, but Fontaine narrowly missed qualification for the final in the second leg, finishing just ahead of Poland’s Bartosz Kapala. Olivier advanced to the final, where he placed third, while another French competitor, Emile Vincent, was eliminated in seventh place.
