Myriam Fox-Jerusalmi is a renowned Australian slalom canoeist in her own right who enjoyed Olympic success. She won two bronze medals, one each at the 1996 and 2000 Summer Olympics before transitioning into a successful coaching role, guiding athletes such as her daughters Jessica and Noemie to Olympic glory.
Jess then emerged as Australia's golden girl, following in her mother's footsteps with three Olympic gold medals, a silver and two bronze. Now Noemie has made it a family affair with her maiden gold medal in Paris, a feat that saw her entire family leap into the water to celebrate with her on Tuesday morning AEST. That family contribution at the Olympics now means the Fox family have achieved more at the Games than some of the biggest and most established nations in the world.
If you only count medals won at the Paris Olympics, the Fox family would sit in equal 17th plac.
