Pruszkow: Australia smashed their own world record to win the men’s team pursuit gold at the track cycling world championships ahead of Olympic champions and title holders Britain on Friday (AEDT).
The Australians led from the start and their quartet of Leigh Howard, Sam Welsford, Kelland O’Brien and Alex Porter set a time of 3:48.012 to eclipse the country’s previous world mark of 3:49.804 achieved at the 2018 Commonwealth Games.
Denmark took the bronze after beating Canada.
‘‘I’m speechless at the moment, to be honest,’’ Porter, competing just 10 weeks after breaking a collarbone in a domestic race crash, said.
