Ter Mors medals in 2 different sports at same Winter Games

GANGNEUNG, South Korea (AP) — Speedskater Jorien ter Mors became the first woman to win Olympic medals in different sports at the same Winter Games.

Ter Mors added bronze in the short-track arena to the gold she won in long-track speedskating last week.

"That's really special," said ter Mors, who skated with the Dutch team on Tuesday in a tumultuous 3,000-meter relay. "I hoped for it coming here into the games but after losing the semis, I didn't expect to win a medal anymore."

Ter Mors previously won the 1,000-meter race at the Gangneung Oval.
