We kick off this week with the Olympic Games just three weeks away and selection trials happening around the world. American Elana Meyers Taylor stamps her place in Monobob, which will be making its debut in Beijing. She currently leads in women’s monobob points after winning this past weekend’s World Cup race in Winterberg, Germany. Her teammate, Kaillie Humphries, narrowly missed the medals finishing in fourth place but teamed with Sylvia Hoffman to claim the bronze medal in the two-woman bobsled World Cup race. Elana Meyers Taylor and Kaysha Love had the fastest run in the second heat and finished just behind their teammates in fourth. In World Cup skiing there was an outstanding victory for Sweden’s Sara Hector in Kranjska Gora Giant Slalom to put her on top of that discipline rankings, Meanwhile Slovakian Petra Vlhova continues he winning streak by adding the Kranjski Gora slalom to her CV but was beaten by her arch rival Mikaela Shiffrin in Schladming 15 hundreths of a second. There is also news from tennis, cycling, baseball, basketball and speedskating with a story of sportsmanship by American Brittany Bowe making our headline story.
