Queen of the track Dame Laura Kenny won a Commonwealth Games bronze medal on her comeback from a winter of heartache and giggled: “I was the weakest link.”
Kenny only returned to the saddle in April after suffering a miscarriage last November and an ectopic pregnancy two months later.
Earlier this week, she revealed the devastating double setback almost made her quit cycling – but as she led England's team pursuit quartet to the podium, she admitted: “I've never felt so much pressure to win a bronze medal in my career.” As a five-times Olympic champion, Kenny is one in a bullion.
