Women’s sprint – Kelsey Mitchell (CAN) will race Olena Starikova (UKR) in the final of the women’s sprint. The Canadian defeated Emma Hinze (GER) in their decisive final semi-final race. The German moves on to take on Wai Sze Lee (HKG) in the bronze medal race.
Women’s omnium – Superb comeback from Laura Kenny (GBR)! After falling in the opening sprint race she rode superbly in the tempo to make up plenty of lost ground. She won the most sprint points (7) and was part of the leading group of seven that established lap points. She moves up to fifth overall, chasing Valente (USA) and Wild (NED). Edmondson has dropped back into the pack.
