Campbell won two golds, in the team pursuit and omnium, as well as his madison silver. New Zealand won 10 medals at Moscow in 2010 and at Invercargill in 2012, but the total of four gold medals won this year was the most achieved in the 40 years they have competed at the junior world championships. Stewart was the star of the event, but in the madison he and Sexton were pipped by the home nation Switzerland in the two-person points race, where Switzerland managed to put two laps on the field, while the Kiwis were one of three to gain one lap. Stewart and Sexton were the most impressive in accumulating points, winning three of the seven sprints, to secure the silver medal ahead of Australia. Stewart became the most successful New Zealand rider in the junior world championships. After winning two gold medals in the scratch race and omnium at Kazakhstan last year, the 17-year-old's wins gives him four rainbow jerseys, one better than the previous best of three by Rio Olympian Sam Webster. Stewart's overall tally of five medals is second only to another Rio Olympian in Regan Gough, who won six medals, including two golds, in 2013 and 2014.
