Emily Sarsfield in Olympic Ski Cross Finals Tonight

J2SkiNews posted Feb-2018



Team GB's Emily Sarsfield qualified 22nd to make the finals of the Olympic Ski Cross tonight.

Sarsfield's long-held dream to become an Olympian finally came true earlier today when she completed the seeding run of the ladies' ski cross.

"A little frustrated...skied 'nicely' but didn't carry the speed I wanted to...no stress though as tomorrow is a new day and FINALS are on! It's time for the fun stuff...head to head racing on this crazy track!" said Emily Sarsfield commenting on her qualification run.

Missing out on opportunities in 2010 and 2014 due to injury and selection, Sarsfield today finakll made it to the Olympic finals start line.

She now moves into the elimination stages tomorrow commencing with the 1/8 finals at 1am GMT, to followed by Quarter-Finals, Semi-Finals and Final.

Sarsfield will be up against sixth-seed Alizee Baron (France) and 11th seed India Sherret (Canada). The top two from this race will continue to the quarter-finals.

Sarsfield has drawn the sixth heat which is scheduled to begin at 1:20am.
