Villumsen takes gold for New Zealand

GLASGOW: Linda Villumsen won gold for New Zealand in the women´s individual cycling time trial at the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow on Thursday.

The 29-year-old finished in a time of 42 minutes 25.46 seconds to make up for the heartache she suffered in Dehli four years ago when she finished second.

England´s Emma Pooley, in her final race before retirement, had to settle for silver while Australia´s Katrin Garfoot took the bronze. (AFP)
