Perris Benegas followed her silver medal performance in the debut of X Games Women’s BMX Park with another silver at the Paris 2024 Olympics. It’s sweet redemption for the 28-year-old from Reno, Nevada: Benegas was just off the podium in 4th at the Tokyo Olympics.

Australia’s Natalya Diehm, who finished 6th in the discipline at XG Ventura Presented by SONIC, followed Benegas in the bronze position in Paris. China’s Yawen Deng took Olympic gold. X Games Ventura 2024 champ Hannah Roberts, who placed 1st in Paris 2024 Olympic qualifying and owns silver from the Tokyo Olympics, couldn’t land a clean run in the final and placed 7th.
