Olympic champion Worthington soars into European final

Charlotte Worthington admits she's catching another taste of Olympic fever after soaring into the BMX freestyle final at the multi-sports European Championships. The Tokyo Olympic champion, 26, racked up a formidable average score of 82.30 as a thrilling display in Munich proved too hot for Nikita Ducarroz and Lara Lessmann to handle. Ad Cycling is one of nine sports to feature at these multi-sport championships as the city's iconic Olympic Park celebrates its 50th anniversary since hosting the Games in 1972.

RugbyDow enjoys watching brief as England teammates put through pacesAN HOUR AGO Worthington thrived in the environment in the Japanese capital last summer and is loving getting more of the same 12 months down the line. The 2019 European champion, who competes in the final on Friday, said: “I'm so stoked to see it here — it's almost like a mini Olympics. «It's super well-organised and the European Championships have smashed it — we're really well looked after and it's so nice.

»It's a really good position to be heading into tomorrow — I've got a couple of things I want to try and get out there and practice and hopefully that can come to fruition. «But I definitely can't tell you what they are! »We had a hectic start to the year and a lot of the team have been travelling and competing for the best part of two or three months. «We've had some good results and some not so good results – but that's been a preparation for what's to come for the rest of the year.
