Nah he said he made a big mistake in run 1 :P

True, messed up the first couple of turns, but after that it was as if he'd laid his own railway line.

Finally, Great Britain's first medal. 

First British male solo Gold since 1980, incredibly.

I mean, he was first in run one despite a mistake that would have taken most people out of the medals. Shows how dominant he is this season.

Coincidentally Robin Cousins will be on thr BBC in a few minutes commentating on the figure skating.

Wow!  One of the great British Gold Medals, winter or summer!  Completely crushing, perfect performance.

A welcome relief after the last couple of years of most British sport winners making it just by the kin of the teeth or after a lot of luck.

Aww that BBC interview from Weston, means so much to him.

 

Thank you Martins Dukurs, the GOAT of skeleton who started coaching the GB team after Beijing and has absolutely transformed them. He was the one hugging Matt on his sled after the race.
