British cyclist Laura Kenny put on yet another impressive performance on the Olympic stage. Making her third appearance in the Games, the 29-year-old added two more Olympic medals to her tally in track cycling events.

While she made history with her performance in Tokyo, there’re more honors in store for Kenny. Owing to her outstanding performances, she will become a Dame in the New Year’s Honours list.

Laura Kenny set to be a Dame after clinching two medals in the Tokyo Olympics

Kenny made her Olympic debut in the 2012 London Olympics. In that edition of the Games, she won gold medals in the team pursuit and omnium disciplines. Four years later in Rio, she repeated the same success to make her a medal favorite heading into Tokyo.

Although she didn’t win a gold medal in team pursuit this year, she secured her fifth overall Olympic gold medal in the Madison discipline with her teammate Katie Archibald. With six Olympic medals, she is the most decorated female cyclist of all-time.
