Cyclist Laura Kenny could become Team GB’s most successful female athlete of all-time at the Tokyo Olympic games as the former Welwyn Wheelers rider eyes three gold medals.
The 29-year-old shone at London 2012, winning gold in the omnium and team pursuit before repeating the feat four years at the Rio games.
Having recovered from a broken arm and shoulder that led her to consider retirement, Kenny now has her sights set on adding further medals to her collection – including an Olympic first.
What events is Laura Kenny competing in?
Kenny will compete in the team pursuit and omnium once again as she looks to defend her Olympic titles.
She also has the chance to become the first-ever women’s madison winner – a race in which each team must complete more laps than any of the other teams.
