Pretty good day for GB. Weston leading the Skeleton, Pryce getting Britain's best ever female Olympic XC Skiing result with 24th, and Huw Nightingale qualifying up there in 10th for the snowboard cross is good news for the mixed team event with Bankes on Sunday. Brad Hall was also decent in the 2 Man training runs.

 

Hopefully this is the start of a momentum shift for GB these Games.

Bizarre shot calls from Team GB in the women’s curling against China.
