Amy Hunt bags fourth Euro gold as Britain win 4x100m mixed relay

SPORTS 16.08.2026

Amy Hunt bagged a record fourth gold at the European championships on Sunday as part of the winning British quartet in the 4x100m mixed relay.

Text size:

Hunt, who went into the final having won golds in the 100, 200 and women's 4x100m relay, anchored a foursome starring Jeremiah Azu, Dina Asher-Smith and Zharnel Hughes.

They won in a European record of 39.97 seconds, ahead of Germany and Spain.

It was a record-setting eighth continental gold for second leg Asher-Smith, taking her clear of Croatia's discus thrower Sandra Elkasevic and Norway's middle-distance star Jakob Ingebrigtsen, each with seven European golds apiece.

The 30-year-old Briton, having also won two continental silvers and a bronze, also pulled clear of fellow sprinter Irena Szewinska as the most-decorated European athlete of all time, the Pole having won a total of 10 medals from 1966-1978 to Asher-Smith's 11.

"I had to run so fast, I'm with three fast people!" said Asher-Smith.

"I was thinking about representing my country and running as fast as I can."
