Amy Hunt continues whirlwind week with third gold as Dina Asher-Smith makes European history
Victory in the 4x100m relay put Asher-Smith top of the all-time most decorated list of athletes at European Championships, while Hunt is on course for an incredible quartet of golds
Amy Hunt continued her remarkable week with a third gold medal at the European Championships, just one race away from a historic four golds. After a 100m and 200m sprint double, Hunt joined forces with Dina Asher-Smith, Success Eduan and Imani-Lara Lansiquot to claim the 4x100m gold in a record time of 42.05 seconds. Asher-Smith, now the most decorated athlete at the European level, has won ten medals since her debut ten years ago, matching Polish sprinter Irena Szewińska in gold medals.
"I’ve had a good week but Dina, she’s the GOAT," Hunt remarked, praising her teammate's achievements.
