Britain's Neah Evans wins points race gold at cycling worlds

SPORTS 16.10.2022

Britain's Neah Evans won her first major individual title with gold in the women's points race at the track world cycling championships in France on Sunday.

Text size:

The 32-year-old Scot, an Olympic team pursuit silver medallist in Tokyo, finished ahead of Denmark's Julie Leth with American Jennifer Valente finishing third, meaning she missed out on a second title after winning the omnium on Friday.

Defending champion Lotte Kopecky of Belgium, winner of the madison and elimination race during the week, finished fourth at the Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines velodrome outside Paris, which will host the cycling events at the 2024 Olympics.
