PARK CITY, Utah (AP) — Christopher Del Bosco and Kelsey Serwa, winners at the Winter X Games, helped Canada enjoy a big day at the Freestyle World Ski Championships on Friday.
Del Bosco earned the no. 1 seed in qualifying and finished first in three of the four rounds he raced in to claim the men’s ski cross title.
Serwa helped make it a Canadian sweep after taking advantage of the top three seeds losing in earlier rounds, including Germany’s Heidi Zacher — who came into Deer Valley ranked No. 1 in the world — to claim the women’s title. Fellow Canadian Jaime Murray finished second to give Canada a third podium spot in ski cross.
