Aussie moguls star Jakara Anthony completes magnificent World Cup double at Alpe d'Huez on another successful day for Australia's Winter Olympians.
Australia's Jakara Anthony stamps herself as the moguls skier to beat at the Winter Olympics after completing a "mind-blowing" World Cup double triumph on the famous Alpe d'Huez slopes.
Anthony could hardly believe her fantastic week in France as she dominated the dual moguls, in which two skiers compete alongside each other in individual races down the bumpy, technically demanding course, until eking out the narrowest of victories in the final. But the Big Final was a close-run affair against Russian world dual moguls champ Anastasiia Smirnova, with Anthony earning the verdict by just one point from the judges."The women's field is so strong and everyone is ripping it up out there, so to think I came out on top is just spectacular."
And the World Cup triumph of her career felt even more satisfying, given the storied venue. "It's incredible here at Alpe d'Huez. It's on the roster for the next few years so hopefully, I'll be coming back."
