British skeleton racer Matt Weston has won his second European title, taking the gold medal in St Moritz with a combined two-run time of 2:16.58 seconds. This victory follows his win at the same track during the World Championships last year and cements his position as one of the top British athletes on the continent.
Compatriot Tabby Stoecker claimed silver, setting a two-run time of 2:22.23 in the penultimate top-tier race before next month's Olympic Winter Games. The result continues Britain's strong recent success in the women's European Championships, with British athletes now winning medals at every event during the current Olympic cycle.
Weston's victory marks his fifth win this season, solidifying his position as a dominant force in the sport. The 25-year-old former trapeze artist has been on a roll, with several top finishes in recent events. His success is a timely boost ahead of the Winter Olympics, which are set to take place in Italy later this month.
Stoecker's silver medal finish is still a notable achievement for the British athlete, and it comes as no surprise given her strong form in recent events. The result also boosts her position in the overall World Cup standings, with Stoecker now fourth in the rankings ahead of next Friday's season finale in Altenberg, Germany.
The medals won by Weston and Stoecker mark a significant milestone for British athletes in skeleton racing, who have made strides in recent years to become more competitive on the world stage. With both Weston and Stoecker set to compete in the Winter Olympics, fans can look forward to an exciting few weeks of competition from two of Britain's top athletes.
