Team GB made history at the Milan-Cortina Winter Olympics with a stunning double gold medal performance on Sunday. Matt Weston and Tabitha Stoecker claimed mixed team skeleton gold, following Charlotte Bankes and Huw Nightingale's earlier snowboard cross victory.

Weston delivered a breathtaking final run of 58.59 seconds to overcome Germany's lead, becoming the first British athlete to win two gold medals at a single Winter Olympics. The British pair, ranked top seeds, watched 14 teams compete before their decisive run. Stoecker's earlier 1:00.77 run had put pressure on Weston to deliver.

Weston, who won Team GB's first medal of the Games in individual skeleton, executed a near-perfect run to secure victory by 0.30 seconds. The mixed event, making its Olympic debut, requires precise timing as sliders react to five red lights before launching down the track. British teammates Marcus Wyatt and Freya Tarbit narrowly missed a medal by 0.01 seconds, finishing fourth behind two German teams.
