Dame Laura Kenny is Britain’s greatest ever female Olympian and the first British woman to win gold at three consecutive Olympic Games. Alongside her 6 Olympic medals (5 gold, 1 silver), during her stellar career, Dame Laura also achieved 7 World titles, 14 European titles and 2 Commonwealth titles, and is one of the all-time velodrome greats. After giving birth to her first son Albie in 2018, Laura returned to the track once more for Tokyo 2020, and despite being hampered by crashes, broken bones and the Covid-19 pandemic, Laura sensationally defied the odds to capture yet more Olympic gold, winning the Madison, cementing her position as the most decorated female British Olympian of all time.

Charlotte Dujardin has cemented her place in the history books as the most decorated British female Olympian of all time, winning a bronze in the individual dressage – the double champion’s sixth Olympic medal. Dujardin’s collection of three gold medals, one silver and two bronze moves her ahead of the five medals won by the British rower Katherine Grainger and the tennis player Kathleen McKane Godfree. Dujardin said taking on the mantle from Grainger was “absolutely mind blowing”.
