    Cyclist Ally Wollaston has claimed a pioneering bronze in the women's omnium at the Paris Olympics


    She added to her silver in the team pursuit and took New Zealand's medal tally to 20 - 10 gold, seven silver and three bronze - tied with Tokyo 2021 for the biggest collective haul at a Games.

    The country is 11th on a table topped by the United States with 40 gold and 126 medals overall.
