Phinney storms to pursuit gold
American Taylor Phinney took the gold medal in the men's individual pursuit, setting a new USA record in the qualifying round and then going on to easily dispatch Irishman David O'Loughlin in the final. Phinney, who recently joined Lance Armstrong's developmental team Trek-Livestrong, dropped seven seconds off his personal best in the qualifying round to go 4:15.223. Alexei Markov of Russia rounded out the podium.
In the women's sprint, Victoria Pendleton picked up where she left off in Manchester at the first World Cup, and handily defeated all of her rivals, only losing one heat to the Netherlands' Willy Kanis before defeating her in the third race in the semifinal. Pendleton bested Clara Sanchez of France in two races in the final to take gold. Lyubov Shulika (Ukraine) took bronze after Kanis was relegated.
The British also took gold in the women's scratch race, with Lizzy Armistead taking the win over Vera Koedooder (Netherlands) and Andrea Wolfer (Switzerland), and in the men's team sprint, where Team Sky+HD defeated the French team Cofidis. The French got the upper hand in the bronze medal final, where US Creteil took the last podium spot ahead of the British national team.
In the men's points race, Kam-Po Wong (Hong Kong) escaped to take a solo lap, building an unbeatable advantage in the process. Marcel Barth of Germany took silver ahead of Milan Kadlec (Czech Republic).
The biggest surprise of the night came in the women's individual pursuit where British rider Joanna Roswell did not qualify for the gold medal final. Instead, it was Eleanora Van Dijk (Netherlands) and Canadian Tara Whitten who took the top two spots while Roswell defeated Germany's Verena Joos for bronze.
