Rise of cycling star tracked in documentary
Carmarthen Journal
|May 28, 2025
A DOCUMENTARY has been made about the young life and meteoric rise of Welsh cyclist and Olympic hero Emma Finucane.
The cycling star, 22, made history in Paris last summer when she became the first British woman in 60 years to win three medals at the same Olympic Games and the first Welsh athlete to ever achieve that feat.
The Paris Olympics was not the Carmarthen cyclist's first taste of success by a long shot - in 2022 she came home from the Commonwealth Games having won two bronze medals for Wales, while in 2023 she won a gold medal at the World Championships in Glasgow, a feat she repeated last year at the 2024 championships in Denmark.
