March 24/10 11:04 am - Track Worlds: Day 1 results


Posted by Editoress on 03/24/10
 

The 2010 Track World Championships opened this afternoon in Copenhagen with the qualifying round of the women's Individual Pursuit.  American Sarah Hammer, the 2006 and 2007 world champion who was injured at the Beijing Games, proved that she is back in contention with a qualifying time over 2.5 seconds ahead of second place Wendy Houvenaghel (Great Britain), with defending champion Alison Shanks (New Zealand) third.  Canada's Tara Whitten, the Pan Am champion, finished ninth.

"It's not as good a ride as I was hoping for," admitted Whitten.  "Going in the last heat was a real benefit, because I knew what time I needed [to reach the medal round], and it would have to have been a PB [personal best].  I went out strong, but just couldn't hold it."

Whitten also revealed that her focus has shifted from the Pursuit to the Omnium, an event that she won the silver medal in at last year's world championships.

"I've been really concentrating on the Omnium, which means some less focus on the Pursuit and more on the speed events that make up part of the Omnium, because now the Omnium is an Olympic event."

Hammer and Houvenaghel will ride for gold tonight, while Shanks races Vilija Sereikaite (Lithuania) for bronze.
