Winter Olympics: La Championne Olympique, Amy Williams

WOO HOO she did it. Williams comes through in first place!!

Amy Williams' final run at the Skeleton event was actually her best- so much for nerves. GB's other Skeleton lady, Shelley Rudman- silver medallist at the Turin Winter Games '06, only started to get to grips with the course on the final run and she finished in 6th place.

GOLD baby;-) 

Hey, for us Brits, this result is huge. Snow isn't our thing, but maybe more people will view Winter Sports in a different frame now.

Results

1. Amy Williams GBR              3:35.64 (total time for 4 runs)

2. Kerstin Szymkowiak GER     3:36.20

3. Anja Huber GER                  3:36.36

Winter Olympics: GB Gold Medal Hope Amy Williams

Women's Skeleton: Can Briton's Amy Williams hold tight in first position and take the Olympic Gold? Today's final brings on two more runs, and it's no foregone conclusion.

I'll be rooting for you Amy- Go On Girl!!
