Mother Jill, father Greg and sister Jill McIntosh sat among the crowd in Paris on Monday, as they watched the youngest in their family make their country proud, after becoming the first Canadian woman take gold in the race that combines butterfly, backstroke, breaststroke and freestyle – in that order.

Summer’s first place victory comes just two days after the 17-year-old brought home a silver medal for Canada, in the 400-metre freestyle on opening night at the pool.
