Hunt wins third gold as Asher-Smith makes history
Amy Hunt claims the third gold medal of her bid for a historic quadruple and Dina Asher-Smith makes history as Great Britain win two relay golds at the European Athletics Championships.
Amy Hunt secured her third gold medal in a remarkable quadruple bid at the European Championships, while Dina Asher-Smith claimed her seventh gold, setting a new record at the event. The British quartet of Hunt, Asher-Smith, Imani-Lara Lansiquot, and Success Eduan dominated the mixed 4x100m relay, crossing the finish line in a spectacular 42.05 seconds.
Hunt and Asher-Smith will aim to build on their success as they compete in the mixed event alongside their teammates. Britain's medal haul now stands at 12, including six golds, as they chase Italy's lead of 17 medals. The 4x100m relay is a new addition to the championships, and Asher-Smith may choose to join Hunt in this event to solidify her place as the top-performing athlete in championship history.
