From Morning Report, 8:27 am on 15 July 2024

Kiwi mountain bike star Sammie Maxwell has won her bid for Olympic selection. Maxwell was this morning named in the team for Paris after high level discussions involving the New Zealand Olympic Commitee board. The eleventh hour decision comes after the Sports Tribunal earlier this month upheld an appeal by Maxwell against Cycling NZ. Sports correspondent Dana Johannsen has been following the story. She spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.
