Cox creates history

NSWIS moguls skier Britteny Cox created history late last week by becoming the first Australian woman to win a world cup moguls medal after taking bronze at the Deer Valley leg of the world cup.

Cox totaled 22.84 points during her run down the mountain, less than two points behind the silver medallist her American competitor, and is now ranked 14th in the world.

"I had a super-awesome day today. I felt I was in the right frame of mind in the start gate, ready to go, and I executed the things I have been working on in training for the last few days," Cox said after the win.

"I have been concentrating on getting PBs and focusing on my skiing, and to find out that I am the first Australian woman to win a World Cup moguls medal is such a bonus and so exciting."
