Great Britain’s 20-year streak of Olympic skeleton medals ended with a whimper in Yanqing as Laura Deas trailed in almost four seconds off the pace in the women’s competition.
Brogan Crowley says «it's a real shame» that Great Britain will end the 2022 Winter Olympics without a medal in skeleton. The 27-year-old former heptathlete managed a combined time of 3:09.37 on her three competitive runs down the track in the Yanqing National Sliding Centre to finish in 22nd place. Ad/> It was a disappointing result overall for Britain with Matt Weston and Marcus Wyatt finishing 15th and 16th in the men’s competition while 2018 Olympic bronze medallist Laura Deas finished in 19th after the fourth heat .
British skeleton, one of the nation's best-funded winter sports, finds itself at the centre of a row over equipment following dismally poor performances in Beijing.
Matt Weston admitted big stage nerves as his Olympic campaign stuttered in Beijing.
Team GB's Marcus Wyatt was at a loss to explain his 16th-place finish in the skeleton at the Winter Olympics in Beijing. With teammate Matt Weston finishing in 15th, it was a surprisingly poor showing and with the women — Laura Deas and Brogan Crowley — also struggling in their event, the probability is that Team GB will return home without a medal in the skeleton — the first time that has ever happened since the sport's reintroduction as an Olympic event in 2002. Ad/> 30-year-old Wyatt — a debut Olympian — found it hard to see past his overriding disappointment in the aftermath.
Great Britain’s 20-year run of Winter Olympic skeleton success is over after a dismal series of results in Yanqing on Friday.
British gold medallist Amy Williams has pleaded for patience and continued funding from UK Sport, with Team GB looking likely to end their run of winning a skeleton medal at every Winter Olympics since it was reintroduced to the programme in 2002. Matt Weston and Marcus Wyatt finished 15th and 16th respectively in the men's competition, while PyeongChang 2018 bronze medallist Laura Deas and debutant Brogan Crowley sit 21st and 22nd at the halfway point of the women's event.
British skeleton racer Matt Weston has acknowledged that «questions need to be raised» over the team's failure to win a medal at the Winter Olympics.
