MEN:
The 2014 UCI BMX World Cup is well on its way and Liam Phillips of Great Britain is holding the best cards. His lead of 130 points over Anthony Dean (AUS) and 170 over Frenchman Joris Daudet could look different at the end of the day with 225 points going to the winner of the final round in Chula Vista. Two-time Olympic gold medalist Maris Strombergs (LAT) has won two World Cup races this season and will aim for a top three finish in the overall ranking after stop number five. Americans Connor Fields (5th) and Corben Sharrah (8th) will use home advantage to show the fans they're ready for a podium.
