Sandra Näslund continues to impress after her Olympic bronze medal in Italy. The ski cross star followed up yesterday's victory with another victory at the World Cup event in Kopaonik, Serbia.

In the Olympics, Sandra Näslund said the course did not really suit her skating.

Back in the World Cup, the course seems to suit her better. A dominant victory yesterday was followed by another. It was Näslund's 46th World Cup victory and her seventh in eleven starts this winter.

"It was a little stressful. I needed to ride perfectly. It went well, it was cool," Näslund said on Viaplay's broadcast.

Olympic winner Daniela Maier came second and Saskia Lack third.

The competition's other Swede, Linnéa Mobärg, was eliminated in the quarterfinals.

Her brothers, David and Erik Mobärg, participated in the men's competition. David Mobärg was leading his round of 16 when he misjudged a jump and crashed out. Erik Mobärg was eliminated in the quarterfinals.
