GB's Elise Christie becomes European Short Track Speed Skating champion

Great Britain's Elise Christie has clinched the overall European Short Track Speed Skating title following an impressive week in Dordrecht.

The 24-year-old started strongly by securing victory in the 500m and 1500m races at the weekend.

She went on to finish second in the 3000m super final, which was enough for her to clinch the title for the first time in her career.

"Elise did a great job bouncing back from adversity," BBC Sport quotes coach Jo Eley as saying. "Smart racing to take her first overall title."

Christie had a poor campaign at the Sochi 2014 Olympics after she was penalised in every race.
