Harrie Lavreysen of the Netherlands won Paris cycling gold in the men's keirin.
PARIS – Emotional sprint sensation Harrie Lavreysen became the Netherlands' most successful summer Olympian Sunday with a third Paris cycling gold in the men's keirin, boosting his career haul to five.
Britain had bossed the medal table at every Games since Beijing in 2008, but there was a narrowing of the gap in Tokyo three years ago.While they topped the overall Paris medal table with eight, Britain managed just a single gold, as the Dutch won three and New Zealand and the United States earned two each.
"I felt really strong the full week. This morning, I thought, 'It is possible', but I needed to ride the perfect final, and I was really close to perfect until the end." Glaetzer was the first to make the move with Richardson following, but Lavreysen's stunning burst of speed in the final lap saw him home.Andrews was similarly dominant, blasting to the sprint title after her keirin exploits.
Valente had an equally good week, taming the field in the omnium to go with her team pursuit win, finishing 13 points ahead of Poland's Daria Pikulik. New Zealand's Ally Wollaston was third.
