LONDON -- With a total of 10 Olympic gold medals between them (five of which they've earned at the 2016 Olympic games), Laura Trott and Jason Kenny are currently the world's most successful Olympic couple.
At the time of writing, if they happened to form their own country together, they'd be sitting thirteenth in the medal table -- right above Spain, New Zealand, Brazil, Kenya and Canada.
