Skeleton star Matt Weston taking inspiration from past Team GB success
Matt Weston is determined to continue Team GB’s run of scintillating skeleton success when he makes his Winter Olympic debut at Beijing 2022 next month. The 24-year-old from Crowborough heads to the Chinese capital in a British squad featuring Marcus Wyatt, Brogan Crowley and 2018 bronze medallist Laura Deas – aiming to add to the 1,000-plus medals achieved by British athletes since the advent of National Lottery funding to elite sport in 1997. Ad/> Britain have medalled in every Olympics since the sport was reintroduced in 2002, most notably Amy Williams’ gold in Vancouver and Lizzy Yarnold’s back-to-back titles in Sochi and PyeongChang.
