Laura Trott鈥檚 Dad: 鈥楽he wants to be a winner, but doesn鈥檛 count the wins鈥�
Laura Trott became the first British woman to win three Olympic gold medals on Day 8 of Rio 2016. She and the three other members of the women鈥檚 cycling pursuit team - Joanna Rowsell-Shand, Elinor Barker and Katie Archibald - took gold in the velodrome, setting a new world record.
Adrian Trott - Laura鈥檚 dad - spoke to 5 live Breakfast about his daughter鈥檚 achievement: 鈥淪he wants to be a winner, but doesn鈥檛 actually count the wins. She鈥檒l just continue with that big happy smiley face that she鈥檚 got.鈥�
Laura鈥檚 boyfriend Jason Kenny competes in the men鈥檚 sprint final against fellow Team GB member Callum Skinner on Day 9. Adrian said: 鈥淟ast night, in jest, his mother said, what sort of offspring they might produce 鈥� most likely a concert pianist!鈥�
