Cat Ferguson was always likely to shine at the UCI Road World Championships in Zurich, but winning two junior world titles in the space of 48 hours was beyond even her greatest expectations.
The 18-year-old from Skipton, North Yorkshire, has been winning British national titles and gold medals in the Youth Olympics since her early teens. In 2023, she won the junior Tour of Flanders and took silver in the road race at the world championships in Glasgow. This season, she has won 12 races and her worst result is third.
