Deas wins bronze at Skeleton World Cup

Great Britain's Laura Deas has won her second medal at the Skeleton World Cup by claiming a bronze in St Moritz.

The 25-year-old was 0.24 seconds behind winner Janine Flock of Austria, while Olympic champion Lizzy Yarnold finished in sixth place.

"I've had a really good training week and I've just been really enjoying the track," Sky Sports News quotes her as saying.

"It's been an amazing place to slide and it's been a long time since I was last here so I was just trying to get back into it and feel what was going on. I managed to do that and it's been a great week."

Deas had previously claimed a silver medal in the second race of the season in Calgary.
