Veteran American Kristin Armstrong completed a remarkable Olympic cycling hat-trick of gold medals by winning the women's 29.7km time-trial in Rio on Wednesday Aug 10,2016
Just a day before she turns 43, Armstrong added to her gold medals from 2008 Beijing Olympics and 2012 London Olympics to become the first cyclist to win three Games titles in the same discipline.
Kristin Armstrong posted a time of 44min 26.42sec to edge out Russian Olga Zabelinskaya, who only returned from an 18-month doping suspension last year, by 5.55sec, with Olympic road race champion Anna van der Breggen of the Netherlands third at 11.38sec.
