Jason Kenny claimed his fifth Olympic gold as fellow Briton Callum Skinner had to settle for silver in the mens sprint on day four of action at the Rio Olympic Velodrome.The 28-year-old Kenny beat team-mate and room-mate Skinner 2-0 to join fellow cyclist Sir Bradley Wiggins and rower Sir Steve Redgrave on five Olympic gold medals.Kenny won team sprint gold in Beijing, London and Rio - with Skinner and Phil Hindes on Thursday -- and has now successfully defended his individual sprint title won four years ago.Kennys only defeat in Olympic competition was at the 2008 Beijing Games, when Sir Chris Hoy beat him in the sprint.Just one rider per nation was permitted at London 2012 and Kenny won the selection nod ahead of Hoy, who claimed his sixth Olympic gold in the Keirin before retiring.Now Kenny can join the Scot - in Rio as a BBC television pundit -- as the Briton with the most Olympic golds with victory in the same discipline on Tuesday.Kenny won the Keirin world title in 2013 in Minsk, so it is not beyond him. He is Britains only entrant in the race which begins behind a motorised Derny bike.Kenny qualified for the sprint in an Olympic record of 9.551 seconds, dipping under the mark of 9.703secs set by Skinner earlier in Fridays qualifying session, which ranks riders for the head-to-head sprints.And the pair, who are room-mates in the athletes village and train together every day, successfully negotiated the rounds to set up the second all-British final in eight years.Kenny easily rounded Skinner in the first of the best-of-three bouts.And the Bolton rider led out the second sprint and had too much power for Skinner, to draw level with Redgrave and Wiggins, who won his fifth Olympic gold on Friday in the team pursuit.Kenny is engaged to Laura Trott, who won her third Olympic gold on Saturday.For Skinner, a 23-year-old from Glasgow, it was a second medal of his debut Games.It took Britains tally to four golds and two silvers from five events entered in the velodrome.

Wilson hit Schenn from behind during Tuesday nights game in Philadelphia, earning a five-minute major for charging and a game misconduct.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- NASCAR will not penalize Martin Truex Jr. or Jimmie Johnson for failing inspection after the opening race of the playoffs.Truex won Sundays race at Chicagoland Speedway and Johnson finished 12th. Both cars failed the laser inspection with infractions that should have drawn 10-point penalties.Although the infractions were similar, NASCAR executive vice president Steve ODonnell said the penalties would not have been equal. Truex advanced into the second round of the playoffs with his victory, but Johnsons chances of advancing would have been hampered by the loss of 10 points.ODonnell said not penalizing either driver was the fair decision.If we applied those penalties, the post-race penalty really would not treat each competitor fairly, ODonnell said. We also saw this as a potential situation that we could see repeating itself for the next nine races of the Chase going forward. So we made the decision coming out of Chicago not to penalize (Truex) or (Johnson) for the post-race infractions we saw in Chicago, which the industry would agree were minor in nature.NASCAR didnt budge, though, on the penalties for missing lug nuts. The crew chiefs for Aric Almirola and Greg Biffle were eacch penalized $10,000 for not having properly installed lug nuts at Chicago.dddddddddddd. Drew Blickensderfer (Almirola) and Brian Pattie (Biffle) were both hit with P3 penalties on NASCARs scale.Also, all 16 teams in the Chase will go through the laser inspection after this Sundays race at New Hampshire. Only nine were inspected at Chicagoland.When we talked to the drivers and the teams shouldnt all 16 (Chase) go through there and thats a very fair point as well, ODonnell said. Going forward that will be part of our post-race inspection as well. If we have a field of 16, all cars will go through post-race LIS and go down to 12, eight and four.NASCAR is trying to set defined guidelines for penalties to avoid teams manipulating the system to their advantage.We dont want to be talking about post-race penalties, ODonnell said. Our goal is to never have to penalize anybody and we want to just talk about the action on the track. We felt like that this is hopefully enough of a deterrent not to have teams go there and also to be very up front as to what the consequence would be. ' ' '
