ST. MORITZ, Switzerland โ In a spectacular showcase of talent, the U.S. secured both gold and bronze medals in the womenโs World Cup monobob event held on Friday, marking their finest performance of the season to date.
Elana Meyers Taylor dominated the competition, clinching first place, while her teammate Kaysha Love followed closely to finish in third. Australiaโs Bree Walker was awarded the silver medal, which propelled her to the second position in the overall rankings, just behind Germanyโs Lisa Buckwitz.
