Excerpt: Friederike "Fritzi" Schwingl (born July 28, 1921) is an Austrian slalom and sprint canoer who competed from the late 1940s to the mid 1950s. She won a bronze medal in the K-1 500 m event at the 1948 Summer Olympics in London. Schwingl also won four medals at the ICF Canoe Sprint World Championships with two silvers (K-1 500 m: 1954, K-2 500 m: 1950) and two bronzes (K-1 500 m: 1950, K-2 500 m: 1948). She also won three medals in the folding K-1 event at the ICF Canoe Slalom World Championships with a gold (1953) and two silvers (1949, 1951). As of 2009, Schwingl is the only woman to medal at both the slalom and sprint canoeing world championships.
