VAL THORENS, France – Canada’s Brittany Phelan won silver at the Audi FIS Ski Cross World Cup on Saturday.

Phelan, from Mont-Tremblant, Que., finished behind Sweden’s Sandra Naeslund in the big final. Marielle Berger Sabbatel of France took the bronze.

“It was awesome,” Phelan said. “Super challenging weather and lots of holds or delays in every run, but I had solid qualifications and had a good plan and stuck to it all day.”

At the World Cup moguls competition in Idre Fjall, Sweden, reigning Olympic champion Mikael Kingsbury settled for an eighth-place finish in the men’s competition.

“It’s not the result I wanted, that’s for sure,” Kingsbury said.

Kingsbury, from Deux-Montagnes, Que., was coming off a victory in the World Cup opener last weekend.
