Amy Hunt is on the verge of making history at the European Athletics Championships in Birmingham, having already claimed victories in the 100m and 200m events. At just 24 years old, she aims to become the first athlete to win four gold medals at the same championships, with the women’s 4x100m relay and the inaugural mixed 4x100m relay still to come.

Hunt expressed her determination, stating, "There will be no celebrations and no champagne until Sunday night." After her 200m win on Thursday, she exclaimed, "Two out of four, baby! This is becoming a magical week and one I will remember for the rest of my life."

Her teammate, Dina Asher-Smith, who secured silver in the 200m, previously achieved a sprint treble at the 2018 European Championships in Berlin, winning gold in the 100m, 200m, and 4x100m relay at just 22 years old. Asher-Smith is now one medal away from tying Irena Szewinska's record of 10 European medals.

The conversation around Hunt's potential quadruple touches on the elite company she could join, as only a select few athletes, such as Usain Bolt and Allyson Felix, have achieved similar feats at major championships. The upcoming 2028 Olympics will introduce the mixed 4x100m relay, presenting future sprint stars with new opportunities to chase quadruple victories.

With Hunt's sights set on the relays this weekend, the prospect of a historic quadruple looms large, not just for her but for the future of sprinting in athletics.
