Pauline Ferrand-Pr茅vot has won world titles across multiple cycling disciplines - cyclo-cross, gravel, road and mountain bike 鈥� but there is one accolade still missing from her collection: an Olympic medal.

The French cyclist 鈥� who will compete at her fourth Olympic Games in Paris 鈥� will start as one of the home medal hopes when she lines up in the cross-country mountain bike event.

Tenth place in Tokyo is her best Olympic finish to date, even when a puncture ended her podium chances.

Speaking ahead of Paris 2024, Ferrand-Pr茅vot tells Sportsworld鈥檚 Lee James about why this feels like the 鈥渂est timing鈥� for her and what would it would mean to win gold at a home Games.
