Chloé Dygert has confirmed she will race on at the 2024 Paris Olympics despite her high-speed crash in Saturday’s time trial.

A gold medal favourite, the American was just five seconds down on eventual winner Grace Brown of Australia at the first intermediate time check. However her crash on the rain-soaked city centre course cost her significant time and confidence. She eventually finished 1:32 slower than Brown with Britain’s Anna Henderson one second faster than Dygert to take the silver medal.
