Summer golden again in Paris

Canada's golden girl was back at it in the pool on Thursday.

Summer McIntosh earned her second Olympic gold medal, and third overall, in the Women's 200m Butterfly.

The 17-year-old set an Olympic record in the race with a time of 2:03.03.

Regan Smith of the United States took home the silver medal. China's Zhang Yufei, who held the previous Olympic record, came in third.

McIntosh is the first Canadian woman to win two gold medals in the pool at the same games.

She has a chance at more medals, as she will take part in the Women's 4x200m Freestyle Relay and the 200m Individual Medley.
