Sir Chris Hoy wins keirin gold

Great Britain's Sir Chris Hoy won a men's keirin gold medal on the final day of the Track Cycling World Championships in Melbourne this afternoon.

The 36-year-old appeared to be boxed in heading into the final bend.

However, a late surge past Germany's Maximilian Levy and Simon van Velthooven of New Zealand secured the victory for the four-time Olympic champion.

The win was only confirmed courtesy of a photo finish.

Today's success in Australia was Hoy's 11th at the World Championships.
