Sabrinas debut in winter Olympics delayed
Kenya’s Sabrina Wanjiku Simader’s debut at the 2018 winter Olympics was delayed today after her event was postponed due to strong winds in Pyeongchang, South Korea.
Sabrina, the first female Kenyan at the winter Olympics was set to compete in the Yongpyong Alpine Centre but adverse weather prompted organizers to push the event to Thursday adding to the scheduling woes.
The race will have an earlier start time to accommodate the men’s downhill at the Jeongseon venue, while the snowboarding event did get underway after the wind died down sufficiently.
