Debroah stars with her fourth gold

Top Indian cyclist Deborah won two gold to grab the spotlight on the concluding day of the Track Asia Cup 2014 at the IG Stadium Complex Velodrome here today.
Debroah won gold in the women's elite keirin and sprint finals for an overall individual tally of four gold medals from the championships to shore up her chances for the major events like the World Championships in France in March 2015.
Indians also won two more silver and three bronze today to finish with a total of 18 medals (5 gold, 4 silver and 9 bronze).
Hong Kong, however, topped the medal chart from the event, having been able to dominate the endurance events.

Deborah began the evening session by sprinting to gold way ahead of compatriot Kezia Verghese and Tatyana Zadnepryanova of Kazakhstan in the three-lap event.
Even as Indian elite men struggled in keirin finals, Debrora once again set the stage ablaze with a fantastic display in the eight-lap event as she overtook Tatyana rather easily for the gold.

The Kazakh took 0.010 seconds more than the Indian and the bronze went to another Indian Sonia Devi who finished the race 1.332 seconds more than the gold winner.
The men's keirin gold went to Kazakh Pavel Vorzhev while Thailand's Worayut and Satjakul finished behind the winner, taking fractions of seconds more. India's Amrjeet Singha and Gurpal Singh finished way behind at number six and eight respectively.

In men's sprint, Indian Amarjeet Singh won a silver taking an extra 0.582 seconds more than gold winner Pavel Vorzhev, while Pongthep Tapimay of Thailand had to be satisfied with the bronze.
Another silver medal came India's way when Prabhsiman Singh came second behind Thailand's Chakhree Khruthangkha in the three-lap men's junior sprint finals. Hong Kong's Maximillan Gil bagged the bronze.
Raj VP Sona won women's junior sprint bronze behind Sarinthip of Thailand and Hong Kong's Wing Yee Leung.
