Lavreysen wins keirin gold as Dutch cyclists add more medals at Hong Kong World Cup

Saturday, 18 April 2026, 14:07 · 1 min read

Harrie Lavreysen dominated the keirin final at the Track Cycling World Cup in Hong Kong, winning by three bike lengths ahead of Japan's Kaiya Ota. His chief rival, Britain's Matthew Richardson, had already been eliminated in the semi-finals, leaving Lavreysen — a four-time world champion and Olympic gold medallist in the discipline — without serious opposition. Fellow Dutch rider Philip Heijnen also claimed gold in the omnium, adding to the silver and bronze medals the Netherlands had already secured earlier in the competition.
