Rosie Brennan wins another World Cup cross-country race, shares podium with teammate

Rosie Brennan won a second straight World Cup cross-country skiing race on Sunday. This time, another American joined her on the podium.

Brennan, a PyeongChang Olympian, took a 10km freestyle in Davos, Switzerland, a day after winning a freestyle sprint. She prevailed by 34 seconds over Russian Yuliya Stupak. The gap was larger than the time separating Stupak from the 11th-place skier.

“I still am just so excited from yesterday,” said Brennan, who is more of a 10km skier than a sprinter. “I didn’t have the best night of sleep.”

American Hailey Swirbul was third for her first World Cup podium.
