Query
[edit]In an interview with Claire Balding on the BBC website [1] Balding says it was Williams' first win. Is this right? Her first win, ever, is Olympic gold? Also, is it worth mentioning in the Wikipedia article that she had never trained on ice before going to Vancouver? 82.32.238.139 (talk) 11:28, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
- She won silver at Lake Placid last year. How does that stack with a statement that she had not trained on ice before Vancouver? Leaky Caldron 11:31, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
- Trained being the operative word. She had competed on it, but had never trained in the UK on it, according to news reports. 82.32.238.139 (talk) 12:32, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
- That she "had never trained in the UK on it" is hardly surprising due to the shortage of ice tracks worldwide, there isn't an ice track in the UK. I assume she would, like many athletes in other sports, travel abroad to train. Adambro (talk) 12:53, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
