Alpine skier Filip Mlinšek won two medals
Alpine skier Filip Mlinšek won silver medal in slalom and bronze in combination on
the last day of the Winter Universiade.
"Today's slalom race was really good and what is most important, I managed two solid slalom runs. Slalom is a discipline where you cannot predict the outcome. This time, all was in its proper place for me. It wasn’t enough for gold, but it was enough for silver," Mlinšek said after the race and added:" I am going home very happy because I knew that I was able to ski good in both runs, but I had to manage that on the race, which I finally succeeded today."
Tomaž Velečič finished the race among top ten, on the eight position. watch the race here.
Less luck had freestyle snowboarders in slope style, where we had good competitors (Urška Pribošič, Žiga Erlač, Žiga Rakovec and Mitja Kodrič). Due to bad weather and strong winds, today’s race was unfortunately canceled.
Slovenia has a total of 8 medals at the Universiade. The leader in medal count is Russia with 39 medals, followed by South Korea on the second place and Ukraine on the third.
