Team UK makes history winning two golds Anonymous 02/15/26(Sun)16:15:38 No.1489561

Matt Weston and Tabitha Stoecker clinched mixed team skeleton gold.

It came after Charlotte Bankes and Huw Nightingale won the snowboard cross mixed team event earlier on Sunday.

Weston produced a stunning race to make more of his own history in Cortina - he is the first Briton to win two gold medals at a Winter Olympics having claimed individual gold just two days ago.

Stoecker, 25, had given Weston a tough task with her run of 1:00.77, 0.30 seconds off the pace of the Germans, with the British pair - ranked top seeds - the last to run.

"The individual event is amazing but doing it as a team when we're normally an individual sport is amazing," said Weston.

"To have my team-mate by my side as Olympic champions, two-time for me which is crazy. I'm looking forward to the celebrations!"

A second British team, Marcus Wyatt and Freya Tarbit, missed out on a medal by an agonising 0.01secs as the two German teams of Christopher Grotheer and Jacqueline Pfeifer and Axel Jungk and Susanne Kreher took silver and bronze, respectively.
