Great Britain's Emma Finucane secured a bronze medal in the women's keirin on the final day of the UCI World Track Championships in China.
Finucane was overtaken at the finish line, leaving her in third place after a tightly contested sprint. The keirin, a track cycling event that combines a paced start behind a motorised derny with a high‑speed final sprint, often produces dramatic finishes.
The gold and silver medals were claimed by two other competitors, leaving Finucane to settle for the podium’s third spot.
The UCI World Track Championships, organized annually by the Union Cycliste Internationale, brings together the sport’s top riders to compete for world titles across a range of track disciplines. This year’s edition was hosted in China.
Finucane’s bronze adds to Great Britain’s overall medal haul at the championships and underscores her status as one of the nation’s leading track cyclists.
