Sochi Paralympics: Jade Etherington wins third medal

March 13, 2024

British skier Jade Etherington has won her third medal of the Winter Paralympics with silver in the visually impaired slalom.

The 23 year old and guide Caroline Powell led Aleksandra Frantceva by 0.55 seconds after the first run, but the Russian produced a stunning second run to win gold by 0.65 seconds.

Etherington adds slalom silver to her downhill silver and super-G bronze.

“It’s a shame we didn’t complete the set,” Etherington told BBC Sport. “It’s really annoying not to get the gold, but I’m really happy with the run.”
