Hemel Hempstead’s Anna Henderson has secured Great Britain’s first silver medal of the 2024 Paris Olympics after a superb performance on a slippery course in the women’s Individual Time Trial.

The 25-year-old cyclist, who has suffered two broken collarbones this season, edged out third-placed American Chloe Dygert by less than one second.

In damp, treacherous conditions, Henderson clocked a time of 41 minutes 10.7 seconds over the 32.4km course through the centre of Paris, one minute 31 seconds down on Australian Grace Brown’s gold medal-winning ride.
