The Kerry native won a World Cup silver with Sanita Puspure in Lucerne in 2022, and put her work with Deloitte on hold after they won bronze at the 2022 World Championships in the heavy double. Hyde was paired with Alison Bergin for the 2023 Worlds where their fourth place clinched the spot for Paris. This year the pairing finished fifth at the Europeans, and fourth at the second World Cup regatta.
