American cycling prodigy Taylor Phinney has entered three events at the world track championships later this month, the American cycling federation said.

The 18-year-old Phinney will ride in the individual pursuit, the one-kilometer time trial and the omnium at the March 25 to 29 world event at Pruszkow in Poland.

Phinney caused a sensation in mid-February after winning both the individual pursuit and the one-kilometer time trial with impressive times in the last round of the World Cup in Copenhagen.

The cyclist from Boulder, Colorado, has made the omnium, which comprises five races in the same day, as his major goal at the world championships.
