Kenny takes gold in Men's CP3 Individual Pursuit
Adjust font size:

Britain's Darren Kenny rode away with the gold medal in Men's CP3 Individual Pursuit and didn't even have to finish the race to do it.

He'd already overtaken silver medalist Jin Yong-sik of the Republic of Korea a third of the way into the race and the gold was his to claim, making it a clean sweep for the British Cycling team in the three finals so far today.

Canada's Jean Quevillon easily beat Spain's Maurice Far Eckhard to take the bronze.

Earlier in the day Kenny showed his mettle as he scorched round the circuit knocking a full six seconds off his own world record and further underlined his apparent invincibility in this class.
