Five years after one of the biggest triumphs of her career, Kelsey Serwa is back on top.
The 26-year-old from 91大黄鸭 raced to a gold medal Saturday in women's ski cross at the X Games in Aspen, Colo.
In 2011, Serwa won her first X Games title, crashing at the finish line in spectacular fashion and suffering multiple injuries, before stepping on to the podium.
鈥淚鈥檓 so happy to be back here at the X Games," said Serwa. "I was tired of being second so I made a plan and stuck with it today.
鈥淲hat made me most happy was to land on my feet in the finish.鈥�
Serwa, who took last year off to recover from injury and attend UBC Okanagan, won a silver medal earlier this season on the World Cup circuit in Italy.
Serwa's Canadian teammate, Marielle Thompson, finished second at the X Games.
