Josie Knight lists Leonardo DiCaprio as her favourite actor and played a strong game of ‘Catch Me If You Can’ in Birmingham.
The cyclist clinched bronze in the women's team pursuit alongside Laura Kenny, Maddie Leech and Sophie Lewis at her maiden Commonwealth Games for Team England, beating out Wales in a narrow bronze medal match.
Knight was part of the team pursuit quartet who claimed silver at Tokyo 2020 and standing on an Olympic podium capped a remarkable rise for a cyclist who originally represented Ireland before being accepted on to the GB academy programme in 2019.
Winning the national individual pursuit title in January 2020 marked an early statement of intent in her new colours while European Championship gold and World Championship bronze also appear on an ever-expanding CV.
