Rachel Atherton takes 10th straight World Cup victory
Will Atherton finish with a perfect season? (click to enlarge)
At the last World Cup round, Rachel Atherton claimed a 10th World Cup victory in a row and 30th career win. The only other racer to reach this level of dominance was French great Anne-Caroline Chausson, who won a jaw-dropping nine senior world championships (plus three more in the junior ranks), five overall World Cup titles, and an Olympic gold medal in BMX. (Atherton has three world’s titles to her name so far.)
To get an idea of just how fast Atherton is, hit play to watch her most recent winning run. What do you think? Does she make it 11 in a row when the circuit heads to Lenzerheide, Switzerland, on July 10th?
