Track World Cup: Laura Kenny wins Omnium gold

Monday, 29 October 2018 16:00

Laura Kenny picked up her second gold of the UCI Track World Cup in Canada after winning the omnium.

The 26-year-old, a two-time omnium Olympic champion, also won team pursuit gold on Friday in what was her first World Cup event since January 2016.

Four-time Olympic champion Kenny returned to cycling in March having given birth to her first child in August 2017.

"To say I was nervous would have been an understatement. My first World Cup in the new format," Kenny said on Instagram.

"It took me a couple of events to find my feet and to get used to racing at this level again but once I did I felt more and more like my old self and by the points race I started to really enjoy it."
