MILAN — Canada’s speedskaters have won bronze in the women’s 3,000-metre short-track relay at the Milan Cortina Olympics.


The team of Danaé Blais, Florence Brunelle, Kim Boutin and Courtney Sarault reached the podium at three-tenths of a second behind winner South Korea.

Host Italy claimed silver at 0.093 seconds behind the South Koreans.

It’s Sarault’s fourth medal at the Milan-Cortina Games, and she becomes the first Canadian short-track speedskater to reach the podium four times at a single Winter Olympics.
