In a heart-pounding final race, Jacobellis frittered away the 0.04sec head start supplied by her team-mate in the first wave, but made a late move to overtake Italy’s Michela Moioli on the inside of the final right-banked turn and held on over the final jump to win by 0.20sec beneath heavy snowfall at the Genting
SNOW Park in the mountain village of Zhangjiakou.
