American star Chloe Dygert romps to individual pursuit title at cycling world championships

Chloe Dygert insisted in the week leading up to the cycling world championships that she wasn't quite in form yet. In fact, Dygert was so far ahead of her opponent in the finals, defending champion Franziska Brausse, that she passed the German on the final lap. Dygert stopped the clock in 3 minutes, 17.926 seconds, a time that was slowed by the pass and would otherwise have challenged for her own world record.
