MICHAEL Hepburn outpaced fellow Australian and world record-holder Jack Bobridge to claim the individual pursuit title as the hosts dominated the world track cycling championships in Melbourne yesterday.
Australia claimed three gold medals on the fourth day of competition and leads the championships tally with five golds and a total of 12 medals. Britain is second with five golds and eight medals overall, ahead of Germany with two golds and a bronze. Hepburn, who qualified fastest earlier in the day, beat Bobridge by more than half a second. Frenchman Gregory Bauge won the men's sprint in contentious circumstances after Britain's Jason Kenny had his finals-leveling win overturned in the second heat while Anna Meares of Australia won a hard-fought sprint to defend her women's keirin title.
