European Athletics Championships 2026: Amy Hunt and Dina Asher-Smith make history with relay gold

Published

on

Less than 24 hours after combining with their respective men’s and women’s quartets to win 4x100m golds, Azu, Asher-Smith, Hughes and Hunt – in that order – made it six golds out of a possible seven across the sprint events.

Hunt described team-mate Asher-Smith as “the real life GOAT” [greatest of all time] after the 30-year-old won a record-equalling seventh gold on Saturday night, a decade on from capturing her first.

Despite feeling “absolutely terrified” during the event’s inaugural mixed 4x100m relay, Asher-Smith, world 200m champion in 2019, leaves Birmingham a 22-time international medallist in her senior career.

Based on her performances this week, Hunt is only just getting started with her growing medal collection.

The Cambridge University graduate boldly stated her intention to take all four sprint titles this week in her bid to be “iconic”.

The weight of expectation has increased with each success, but she has risen to the moment in front of her home crowd on each occasion and few expected her to falter once she took the baton and began her battle with Germany’s Gina Luckenkemper.

Cheering his team-mate on after handing over to Hunt, Hughes matched Matthew Hudson-Smith, Mo Farah and Roger Black as the most successful British man with his fifth gold at the championships.

More to follow.
