Image source, Getty ImagesIt is rare for a 21-year-old to be making their Olympic debut with the weight of expectation on their shoulders, but Emma Finucane is no ordinary 21-year-old.
The sprint cyclist from Carmarthen is already a world champion and European champion and on her day is the undisputed best.
She is in contention to challenge for three golds in Paris, though a lot can happen in track sprinting. Either way, it should be box office.
"I'm driven by being successful and winning Olympic gold medals," Finucane said.
Finucane's schedule begins with the women's team sprint, which kicks off the track cycling programme on Monday, 5 August.
