Maze "proud" of second gold

Giant slalom champion Tina Maze has said that she is "proud" to have won her second gold at the Winter Olympics in Sochi.

The Slovenian clinched her nation's first gold medal when she tied for the downhill title last week and narrowly beat Austria's Anna Fenninger for her second this morning.

The 30-year-old told BBC Sport: "I have dreamed about a day like this, even though it is raining. I feel proud, I think I will realise what I have done many years later."

Maze is the oldest competitor to win the women's giant slalom event.
